Name: The Bohemian Republic
Symbols: Flag, The Chalice, Coat of Arms
Claims: http://i.imgur.com/sxmrhaH.png
Power: Great Power
Government Structure: Federal Parliamentary Republic
Ideology/Policy: Republicanism, Secularism, Protectionism
Leaders: Alexandr Hustovi (Prime Minister)
Capital City: Prague

Population: Approx. 31 million
Primary Ethnic Group: Czech
Minority Ethnic Groups: German, Slovak, Hungarian, Serbian, Croat, Bosnian, Italian, Libyan, Ashkenazi, Hasidic.
Description of Ethnicity: Due to Bohemia's status as a majority-minority nation (Czechs make up only 26% of the population), over time all major ethnic groups in Bohemia have come to be accepted and integral parts of the nation. After more than four centuries of rule by the Hussite Bohemians, most of the formerly Catholic populations of Austria and the former Kingdom of Hungary have come to accept the teachings of Jan Hus. As the only majority Hussite nation in the world, religious identity serves to bind Czechs, Germans, Slovaks, Italians, and Hungarians into one cohesive whole. While even with this partial unity of a portion of the nation, it would be expected that ethnic tensions would be frequent, more than four hundred years of unity under Bohemian rule have served to solidify the nation and instill a sense of Bohemian nationalism in the vast majority of it's denizens. Bohemia's inclusive policies have further contributed to this sense of nation first, ethnicity second, making the unified status of Bohemia nearly as hard to shatter as that of those nations consisting of only one ethnicity.
Language: Czech, German, Hungarian, Italian, Slovak, Serbian,
Religion(s): Hussite Christianity(majority), Eastern Orthodoxy(large), Judaism(minor), Islam(minor)

Economic Policy: The Bohemian government follows largely protectionist and interventionist economic policies. Unlike their average contemporaries in the rest of Europe, Bohemian economists advocate the importance of growth at home and the advancement of domestic industry ahead of foreign trade and free markets, and the general, largely unchanging consensus of the populace is that protectionism and government interventionism promote economic stability.

Description of Ethnicity:The array of ethnic groups in the Sultanate. The Kurds and Jews both being the minorities in the Sultanate are heavily persecuted by the dominating Arabs. Arabs coming form the Arabian Peninsula, mostly worshiping Islam and speaking Arabic have been dominating the Levant for years.

Kurds, Coming from the Northeastern part of the Sultanate are a very diverse ethnic group from Iran which speak their own language and were once nomadic and some still are.
Language: Arabic
Religion: Islam

Foreign Relations: The Sultanate views the West with suspicion but as well looking to the Great Powers for Guidance. The Greek pagans and Orthodox Christians to the North as infidels to the East the Persians their old Christian enemies, To the South their Arabic Brothers in which they hope to reunite.
Military Information: The Military is quite out dated and unable to keep up with the West but what it lacks in equipment it makes up in tactics well suited for the Levant area. Hoping to look for a Western Power to provide influence the Sultanate is a Great Power but is in a shell of it's potential and needs proper Guidance.

Banknotes 1, 5, 10, 20, 40, 50 kuruş, 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 500, 1000 lira

History: The Sultanate was founded in 1670 with a bloody independence war from the ruined Remnants of Ottoman Governors. In the war the Sultanate had gained much of Syria, Israel, Sinai Peninsula, Jordan, Southern Anatolia, and Western Iraq. This directly lead to the ending of the remnants of the Ottoman Empire. Seeing much strife and devastation the Sultanate had to rebuild the once prosperous region. Within 130 years the Sultanate had been rebuilt and was ready once more for a war. Hearing of Napoleon the Sultan had rejected all attempts to secure it's alliance and instead had declared war on France to persuade Britain to take interest but suffered from the cut in resources that it needed to sustain it's economy. With the defeat finally in 1815 of Napoleon and France Judah finally began to recover economically once more and waged a war against Egypt securing the Suez area and finally ended Judea's wave of expansion as it begun planning to unite the old Caliphate and secure the Arabian Peninsula for itself.
By 1860 Judea had begun it's modernization of it's economy and military mostly focused on the navy and minerals. Even today it is still trying to modernize with the focus now on Army and the agriculture. By 1880 the Jews had begun a mass migration to Judah under the scrutiny of the Sultan and other high officials they endure and remain. Despite the illegal worship of other religions the Jews practice in private or in the New Temple of Jerusalem where the Guards do not care to patrol but raids still do happen and lives are still lost.

Huzzah for being surrounded by gargantuan empires!

Would you be willing to take Vorarlberg (that tiny province on the end of Austria), in order to make the map look less odd?

Sure; but I don't really know how that would work into my history.
Maybe we could just say that it joined the Old Confederacy x year?

I decided it'd probably be easier just to leave it as Austrian (and therefore Bohemian). Anyhow, I should probably read your history, since we'll be neighbors.

Never heard of it.

You'll hear of it when we invade you, by God! *commence saber rattling*

Very well then *Prepares artillery*

Poor Rome stands alone. Except for our...... ahem Dual Kingdom protectors, of course.

I decided it'd probably be easier just to leave it as Austrian (and therefore Bohemian). Anyhow, I should probably read your history, since we'll be neighbors.

We shouldn't have too many problems; looking at your ideology it looks like Bohemia isn't too imperialist.

Yeah, Bohemia isn't as imperialist as most of the GPs. It burned out most of it's expansionist tendencies when it was going on it's Hussite rampage, and it doesn't really have any room to expand into Africa or the Americas, so it probably won't be expanding much throughout the RP beyond a couple islands at most.
