Your Nation's Name

Postby Jandaria » Thu Jan 24, 2013 6:35 pm

Where does your nation get its name.

Jandaria means "People's Land" in an old, German like language that many tribes in the region spoke. It is saying that the land is ruled by the people.

Belka is the ancient name of the Fatherland. When we absorbed several ethnic Belkan republics and territories then we were renamed the Greater Belkan Reich to reflect the expansion of the state as well as the inclusion of all Belkan nations within the region.

It basically means "New Brandenburg" in German, an area of the Kingdom of Prussia after which the Prussian colony in Amerika was named after.
This is yet another Saur puppet based on a what-if scenario where the Prussians managed to colonize North America, the American Revolution failed, and Prussia never managed to unify Germany.
Please note my German is not perfect, so if you see any grammatical mistakes on my part, be sure to politely point them out so I can correct them

I also appreciate any suggestions for new ideas, creating an alternate timeline is not easy

Where does your nation get its name.


The etymology of the name in regards to the reference of the country known as Bahanesia, derives its development from translations of the Bahan people, the native population that resides within the main island-continent known as Baha.

Bahanesia is Bahan translation for ''Land of the Bahan''.
