General Information

Full Nation Name: The Imperial Federation of Gibet
Short Nation Name: Gibet
National Demonym: "Gibetan"
Capital City: Berlin

Requested Map Location: https://i.imgur.com/3PaLA8B.png (Light Blue)

Short Description of National History:

The Gibetan state came into existence following the Austro-Prussian War of 1824. In the aftermath of the crippling defeat of the Austrian Empire (a peace concluded with the Treaty of Vienna), the monarchies of Bavaria, Prussia, and other German states that supported the Greater German Solution, organized themselves into a unified empire, eliminating the notion of two separate German identities, as well as the old individualities of the HRE system. What followed were heady days of prosperity and unification--Switzerland joined in 1831, and Hungary became an extension of the empire in 1836, with the establishment of a dual-state system. This enabled greater cooperation within the two countries, and allowed for a broader field on which for them to ply their strategic interests. It was because of the ever-increasing role of Hungary as an equal participant that Bohemia and Moravia were annexed in 1845.

In 1863, the Gibetan Empire declared war on the independent states of the Low Countries, effecting a brief campaign of conquest which ended in total capitulation for Belgium and Holland. This was to prove to be the last great conquest of the empire. For the next four decades, the nation flourished in the warmth of peace and regional cooperation abroad. After the turn of the century, a great social and political upheaval occurred, which shook the absolutists to their core. What had started as a drive for imperial power throughout the 19th century, ended in a union of federated states. The monarchy was constitutionalized with the passage of the königsgesetz, which saw the near-limitless authority of the crown reduced to little more than a figurehead.

In the decades since, some of the formerly-occupied territories began to clamor for independence and reform--resulting in the Prague Uprising of 1956, and the mass walkouts in Amsterdam and Brussels which brought the economies to a standstill throughout the 1960's and 70's.

Gibetans are stoic people who strive for perfectionism and precision in all aspects of their lives. They do not admit faults, even jokingly, and rarely hand out compliments. At first their attitude may seem unfriendly, but there is a keen sense of community and social conscience and a desire to belong. There is likewise a strong adherence to faith.

[Fryskarsjypel]

General Information

Full Nation Name: Ferljochte Keninkryk fan Fryskarsjypel (Enlightened Kingdom of Fryskarsjypel[Frisian Archipelago])
Short Nation Name: Fryskarsjypel
National Demonym: Frysk
Capital City: Fryskarsjypel

Requested Map Location: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... nknown.png [Tiny orange island archipelago off the coast of chile]

Short Description of National History: The islands now called Fryskarsjypel was one of the latest discovered significant archipelago or island, found in late June of 1914 (Or whatever year the great war was) by a civilian cargo ship. It was, then, immediately claimed by multiple different nations, but in the end was never again visited since it was first spotted (At which time, the cargo ship crew also did not step foot on the island, not realizing it was new until reaching land), as the nations of the world were about to have much bigger problems. After the vast deaths of the Great War, the island was all but forgotten, a minor piece of trivia and disputed territory nobody had set foot on.

The island would remain disputed and with no international attention until the late 20th century, when the now Ferljochte Kening Haar fan Fryskarsjypel inherited an estate of several billion dollars, some of which included full holdings in two very large construction and private military companies. With this, and having learned of the still disputed and practically unvisited island, he began the construction project of a city, and when the various claimants learned of this and began to legally pester the operation he, with use of the PMC for defense (And securing trade deals strongly beneficial for a foreign power), declared the islands an independent nation under the guise of a 'Modern Enlightenment'. It quickly grew into a financial hub and luxury destination and goods producer, similar to other smaller wealthy nations like Monaco or Luxembourg. However, as the economy grew and a great amount of population flooded in, it also built up a significant internal economy, making itself not entirely reliant on the outside world, even for food.

Now, today, Fryskarsjypel is opening up to the international community as a full fledged state, and is hoping to develop into a somewhat significant economic and political power in the world, despite area and population limitations.

Short Nation Name: Aelanias
National Demonym: Aelanian
Capital City: Madalyn City

Requested Map Location: Mainland Cuba (My favorite color is red *wink wink*)

Short Description of National History:
Aelanias was established after the end of Cuba's civil war (which went on from 1975 to 1978.) the civil war further crippled their economy and only brought a new regime. Aelanias further isolated itself from the world, and for the next few years began slowly rebuilding and restructuring it's economy and society as a whole, with the ruling family managing to keep power due to their claims of possessing nuclear artillery.

By 1990 Aelanias was almost unrecognizable. It's economy was thriving and it's infrastructure was rebuilt. A constitution was finally written when Isabel came into power, but it did little besides establish a monarch with absolute authority and prioritizing daughters over sons when it comes to inheriting power.

While the monarchs absolute authority has not changed, in recent times (specifically when Serena Madalyn took the throne) the state has become a bit less intrusive. More importantly, Aelanias' new empress has spoken several times about her interest in having diplomatic relations with other nations and possibly opening their economy due to stagnation.

Short Description of National History: Yonderre has existed in a multitude of versions since the 7th century, initially as a collection of semi-coherent duchies, and from around the 10th century as a federalized Kingdom. Several revolutions and civil wars have seen kings deposed and republics formed, only for the new leaders to eventually become kings or see themselves overthrown. Since the mid 16th century, Yonderre has held several colonies in the Atlantic Ocean, spearheaded and largely maintained by the Compagnie Atlantique Yonderre.

Yonderre has largely enjoyed internal peace since the early 18th century when the Peasant's War ended with the execution of the coup leaders. In 1871 the constitution of Yonderre took effect, reducing the power of the monarch to a ceremonial one. Yonderre is now ruled by a parliament of 179 representatives headed by a president, with elections every six years.

[Bluquse]

APPLICATION REQUEST

---

General Information

Full Nation Name: Sovereign Republic of Bluquse
Short Nation Name: Bluquse
National Demonym: Blusen
Capital City: Jevena

Requested Map Location: Cuba and Cayman Islands

Short Description of National History: Before the arrival of the Europeans, the island nation that would become modern Bluquse was home to a bronze age academically oriented kingdom called the Qenno State, which held seven cities, each of which held around a hundred thousand people. Like the Aztecs and Incas at the time, the Qenno developed agricultural irrigation, metallurgy, astronomy, monumental architecture and advanced writing, which was considered unique than other Pre-Columbian American Cultures.

The first European to find Bluquse, Christopher Columbus landed on October 28th, 1492 and claimed it for Spain. Starting off as a Spanish colony in 1510, the very first settlements were first founded along the northern shore of the island, including Jevena, which is founded in 1519.

The island kingdom at first welcomed the Spanish peacefully but after witnessing their harsh intentions, a war broke out, lasting for nearly eight years. After suffering heavy losses due to disease and the technological advantage of the invaders did the Qenno eventually made the Spanish consider peaceful negotiations. A compromise was soon reached in that Qenno scholars would be able to live freely on Isla de eruditos (Isle of scholars) as a protectorate, which was 50 km south of the main island. The rest of the Qenno shortly afterword were forced to work and live in subjugation under their new masters.

It wasn't until September 1548, that Governor Terre of Bluquse declared the liberty of all natives shortly after being appointed into office. He became Bluquse's first permanent governor to reside in Jevena and built the city’s first church made of masonry which still stands today. Regular attacks by pirates on the young colony convinced the Spanish to fund the construction of fortresses in the islands main cities – not only to counteract the pirates, but also to exert more control over commerce with the region, and to limit the extensive black market in the region. The monarchy would later grant Jevena the title of city in 1592, which then, later on, become the official capital of the colony in 1607.

Bluquse for the rest of the 17th century developed slowly and peacefully. Unlike the plantation islands of the Caribbean, it had a diversified agriculture and economy and by the 18th century, developed into an urbanized society. The island had fewer slaves then the rest of the Caribbean due to there already being a sustainable population of workers, most of which were the native Qenno.

The Neo-Qenno State on the 'Isle of scholars' begins to trade with the colony around the mid-1700s. As the State recovered from it's lost of the main island, growing interest in outside knowledge had made the State ask the colony for books in exchange for marble, lumber and edible crops which the colony accepted.

During the 18th century, Bluquse's economy started to undergo a major change and growth. A practice of "buying oneself out of slavery", a development unique to the island begins to develop alongside a system of diversified agriculture, with small farms and fewer slaves served to supply the cities with produce and other goods. Suger also became a major cash crop, leading Bluquse to become the world's leading sugar-producer at this time.

Eventually, around the beginning of the 19th century, would Spanish Blusens begin to seriously question their allegiance to Spain after it was occupied by France during the Peninsular War. On May 1809, Blusens placed demands upon the Colonial Parliament to have representation in parliament (since the Blusen-born population, had no political rights and representation), tax reform, and a slavery ban. However, the colonial government imposed a tax increase on Blusen planters, businesses and foreign goods along with the silencing of all political opposition and press. This led dissatisfaction and tensions in Bluquse to spread wildly as the mechanisms to express it was more restricted.

Eventually, on May 9th, 1811, during 1 AM in the morning, wealthy plantation owners freeing their slaves and gathering their countrymen started a rebellion against the colonial government, this event came to be known as the start of the Blusen War of Independence (1811-1819). Within the first half of the seven-year-long war, the eastern half of Bluquse would be held under rebel control and a stalemate was currently in place. Rebel leaders met together to form a coalition of Former African Slaves, Blusen Elites, native-born Spanish, and native Qenno (Who formed a majority of the population) to reform a new government from the Neo-Qenno State after the war ended. Innovation by local gunsmiths and jungle tactics to stop or weaken enemy supply lines and positions helped to turn the tide of war in their favor. Eventually, the surrender of an expeditionary Spanish army in late 1818 at Jevena, cost of the war and the threat of foreign intervention prompted the Spanish government to negotiate with the Blusens to end the conflict on April 28th, 1819, officially ending the war.

Now independent, Bluquse formed a parliamentary republic, abolished slavery and granted political rights and representation in government to the native people. The new nation shortly afterward begins establishing trade and relations with America, Europe, and South America, which eventually led it to experience rapid economic growth for the rest of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Schools and universities were constructed across Bluquse as the nation once again since European conquest focused on scientific interests and research.

Around the early 20th century, The Great War would later serve the country's economic ties with Europe, ending this period of prosperity. Bluquse would remain neutral during much of the war until joining in 1938 with the allies, sending large supplies of food and medicine to their forces and later sending several brigades of their own forces to Europe and Africa to aid in humanitarian efforts.

Social and economic issues around the 1930s lead the recently elected primer Augusto Cortez to have the government readopt a new constitution in 1940, which engineered social reforms and progressive ideas, including the right to labor, education, and healthcare. This made him very favorable to his people as he held his post until 1948, later retiring from politics and founding a popular brewery. Rubén Salazar, a protégé of Cortez, became the primer in 1948.

During the election of 1952, while facing an electoral defeat, Ruben led a military coup that preempted the election, having received aid from financial, military, and logistical support from foreign governments. Despite the success of the coup, Blusen psyche under a dictatorship was strongly oppressive against tyranny, especially the academic community, which desired freedom of thought as vital to human nature and the nation's political parties, who despite their differences, joined together to voice against Ruben.

Gyro Ross, a descendant of the Qenno State royal family, led the newly formed revolutionary group the 'Free Sovereign Movement' to rebellion in early 1954, starting a short civil war between the government's forces and its people. By late 1954, Gyro's forces had captured most cities east of Jevena, as Ruben with little options left tired to flee the country but was captured by his own guards. Gyro's forces soon entered the capital on January 7th, 1955, to establish a provisional government, ending the war.

On May 9th, 1955. A new government with elements of a democratic parliament, a socialist economy and a fascist-like head of state, the Overseer, was established. It took almost six years for the country to repair much of the damage done during the war due to lack of funds and a weak economy. Wanting to prevent foreign powers from undermining the new fledgling social democracy, the government by 1956, expropriated businesses, thousands of acres of farmland and private property from foreign landholders. This, of course, led to worsened relations with those countries which took time to recover. A national policy of self-sufficiency was later created to enable Bluquse to become an Autarky, gaining food independence by the late 1960s and energy independence by the mid-1980s.

It wasn't until 1965, that its industries opened up investment for foreign markets to invest into. Improving relations with the United States and Europe was Bluquse's major goal in this era and it did so by opening a special economic zone within its capital. By the early 1980s, an influx of investment fueled an economic boom creating new industries such as firearms, automobile, chemical and tech manufacturing. The economy was broadly diversified around this time yet agriculture remained significant due to the national commitment to staying self-sufficient.

At present day, Bluquse is considered one of the world's most stable states with a strong autarkic economy, a self-trained military defense force and an academic focus on research and development. Despite the small state's accomplishments, it faces an uncertain future. With unstable economic, militaristic and political events happening across the world, Bluquse is uncertain whatever or not it should pick sides as it had remained a neutral state for most of its history. However, public interest in a space program, humanitarian programs, economic cooperation and military modernization are the nation's current agenda for the future.

The thrust for knowledge has been the major key factor on how the Qenno State was founded. Blusen devotion to science is so much so that it's a major part of their philosophical religion, Philosoism, were one of it's most basic teachings teach on how 'good is knowledge and evil is ignorance.'

Bluquse, although mainly influenced by the surviving Qenno culture was also influenced by European and African cultures, especially by enlightenment and democratic ideals. Blusens usually hold festivals around astronomical events such as lunar and solar eclipses where local music and foods are held.

Stability as being one of the state's ideals encourages harmony with nature and each other. It's usually common for the average family to grow a garden, even in cities where urban gardening is widely spending out on either rooftops and porches. While most business, including restaurants, grow a garden to provide fruits and vegetables for their menu.

Blusens could be seen as being compassionate, cheerful, and intelligent individuals who usually get the job done nicely and patiently. It's because of this that they usually remain calm during hard times, especially during natural or man-made disasters where neighbors quickly help one another in their time of need.

Although nationalism isn't a strong ideal to Blusens; cooperation, teamwork, and unity are some of the key values that keep the island together against hostile threats. It's because of this that the nation has a large military that aids in construction, peacekeeping, disaster relief, medical stations and humanitarian projects.

Notes

This nation is inspired partly by Antillia, a phantom island that was reputed, during the 15th-century age of exploration. It's also partly inspired by Atlantis and Utopia, as their both seen as science-focus societies. I've been working on the history and culture of this nation for a while now and have decided that I've written down enough decent information for now. I'm not sure if this is realistic or not but I'll try to make the nation work smoothly with this world's canon as I like to participate in this amazing region.

I noticed that Aelanias has already chosen Cuba but would it be possible if either I, you or both of us discuss about a compromise with Aelanias? I'm not sure if it's allowed in the rules but I'm only asking if it's even possible is all. I did send an application request before I believe but was never given the go since I've discovered later on that all the letters on it were in bold. I'm not in anyway saying this is justification for me to get Cuba first, it's only just a fact I wanted to show. If none of this is possible, then what do you suggest I do?

General Information

Full Nation Name: Sovereign Republic of Bluquse
Short Nation Name: Bluquse
National Demonym: Blusen
Capital City: Jevena

Requested Map Location: Cuba and Cayman Islands

Short Description of National History: Before the arrival of the Europeans, the island nation that would become modern Bluquse was home to a bronze age academically oriented kingdom called the Qenno State, which held seven cities, each of which held around a hundred thousand people. Like the Aztecs and Incas at the time, the Qenno developed agricultural irrigation, metallurgy, astronomy, monumental architecture and advanced writing, which was considered unique than other Pre-Columbian American Cultures.

The first European to find Bluquse, Christopher Columbus landed on October 28th, 1492 and claimed it for Spain. Starting off as a Spanish colony in 1510, the very first settlements were first founded along the northern shore of the island, including Jevena, which is founded in 1519.

The island kingdom at first welcomed the Spanish peacefully but after witnessing their harsh intentions, a war broke out, lasting for nearly eight years. After suffering heavy losses due to disease and the technological advantage of the invaders did the Qenno eventually made the Spanish consider peaceful negotiations. A compromise was soon reached in that Qenno scholars would be able to live freely on Isla de eruditos (Isle of scholars) as a protectorate, which was 50 km south of the main island. The rest of the Qenno shortly afterword were forced to work and live in subjugation under their new masters.

It wasn't until September 1548, that Governor Terre of Bluquse declared the liberty of all natives shortly after being appointed into office. He became Bluquse's first permanent governor to reside in Jevena and built the city’s first church made of masonry which still stands today. Regular attacks by pirates on the young colony convinced the Spanish to fund the construction of fortresses in the islands main cities – not only to counteract the pirates, but also to exert more control over commerce with the region, and to limit the extensive black market in the region. The monarchy would later grant Jevena the title of city in 1592, which then, later on, become the official capital of the colony in 1607.

Bluquse for the rest of the 17th century developed slowly and peacefully. Unlike the plantation islands of the Caribbean, it had a diversified agriculture and economy and by the 18th century, developed into an urbanized society. The island had fewer slaves then the rest of the Caribbean due to there already being a sustainable population of workers, most of which were the native Qenno.

The Neo-Qenno State on the 'Isle of scholars' begins to trade with the colony around the mid-1700s. As the State recovered from it's lost of the main island, growing interest in outside knowledge had made the State ask the colony for books in exchange for marble, lumber and edible crops which the colony accepted.

During the 18th century, Bluquse's economy started to undergo a major change and growth. A practice of "buying oneself out of slavery", a development unique to the island begins to develop alongside a system of diversified agriculture, with small farms and fewer slaves served to supply the cities with produce and other goods. Suger also became a major cash crop, leading Bluquse to become the world's leading sugar-producer at this time.

Eventually, around the beginning of the 19th century, would Spanish Blusens begin to seriously question their allegiance to Spain after it was occupied by France during the Peninsular War. On May 1809, Blusens placed demands upon the Colonial Parliament to have representation in parliament (since the Blusen-born population, had no political rights and representation), tax reform, and a slavery ban. However, the colonial government imposed a tax increase on Blusen planters, businesses and foreign goods along with the silencing of all political opposition and press. This led dissatisfaction and tensions in Bluquse to spread wildly as the mechanisms to express it was more restricted.

Eventually, on May 9th, 1811, during 1 AM in the morning, wealthy plantation owners freeing their slaves and gathering their countrymen started a rebellion against the colonial government, this event came to be known as the start of the Blusen War of Independence (1811-1819).

Short Description of National History: The 1848 revolutions – the Spring of Nations, had a tremendous effect on the political instability in the United Kingdom following the growing republican sentiments since the times of the 18th century’s Age of Revolutions. Just ten years prior to the revolutions that plagued Europe, the People’s Charter of 1838 was drawn up as a British working-class reaction to the perceived inability to be represented in the government. Demands for further representation in the form of removing land-owning requirements, and compensation for members of parliament, proved to be a radicalizing force behind growing republican sentiments in the Isles.

The first sign of the British nation fracturing apart was the Newport Rebellion of 1839. While technically a failure in their goal of inspiring national action against the government, the rebellion was instrumental in putting Chartist beliefs into the public spotlight. Newport, Monmouthshire became the symbol of an emboldened republican movement; the imagery of working-class citizens attacking the Westgate Hotel and forcing the armed soldiers within from the city retold heroically in every Chartist club across the country. The Free City of Newport, as it had been acclaimed, was soon met with retaliation by British forces, and met with overpowering numbers the revolutionaries were forced to surrender and return the city back to the state.

1842 served as a precursor for the final victory of the Chartist movement, with a mass wave of strikes across the entire country as over three-and-a-half million signatures on a petition for workers’ redress and fair representation was rejected by Parliament. The government responded by arresting revolutionary leaders and some strikes turned violent as strikers resisted both police and army. Many were radicalized further from the baseline Chartist sentiments, the government's enforcement of strike-breaking causing many to be disillusioned with the monarchy and state. This sentiment continued to grow during the 1840s, with similar protests and petitions being met with familiar responses from the government.

With European revolutionary fervor alive across the entire continent, the 1848 Chartist petition to Parliament was backed by a sizable force. Millions across the country supported the movement, and the petition’s attendees numbered either two-hundred or three-hundred thousand. Inspired by their supporters across the country and enraged by the the constabulary’s efforts to end the mass rally, a riot broke out across the city. The culmination of decades of growing republican sentiments and years of unmet demands for worker conditions and parliamentary reform was the Thames’ Crossing, in which thousands of revolutionaries seized ferries and crossed the river Thames, occupying the Houses of Parliament and disrupting the government.

What followed was a period of political instability as the Crown attempted to reassert control over the city and the rest of the country, civil strife erupting across the entire country. Soldiers were attacked by civilian militias and at times were forced to assault metropolitan areas, which resulted in popular condemnation of the monarchy. This was exacerbated by the proliferation of pamphlets of the Republican Manifesto, which called for the total abdication of the monarchy and establishment of a British republic. By September of the same year it was clear that the United Kingdom could not continue in its current form, and the Queen was forced to abdicate in favor of a provisional parliament that seated many of the Chartist and Republican leaders. By 5 December 1848 the convention settled on a republican constitution that espoused the rights of man and the universal equality of all under the republic.

General Information

Full Nation Name:The Queendom of Usnarov
Short Nation Name:Usnarov
National Demonym:Usnarovian
Capital City:Minos

Requested Map Location: https://imgur.com/SC6oORp

Short Description of National History: The Queendom of Usnarov has a somewhat troubled history dating back to it's inception in the late 16th Century, it has had numerous Civil Wars, some fought between those seeking democracy or communism, other times for religious purposes or even over the death of a Farmer's prized cow. Usnarovians are a passionate people, and will fight fiercely for their beliefs if challenged. The bloodshed came to a head in the late 1950s, kicking off a series of violent conflicts between the factions known as the Unified Federal Republic, which was seeking democratic government, and the Usnarovian Empire, which sought to preserve the lineage of Emperor Gal Burdock. This conflict left the nation in a state of shock and disrepair for its duration.

In the late 1980s this cycle of violence came to an end with the signing of the Treaty of Lacrov, and a compromise was reached between both warring sides. The Empire would have its monarchy, the Republic would have its democracy. The woman chosen to lead this new democratic monarchy was Maria Occisor, whom had helped mediate the negotiations between both sides and laid the ground work for the Treaty of Lacrov. Under her leadership the nation began to finally rebuild, but old hatreds die hard, and civil unrest is still widespread in some places.

The state of Civil Rights in Usnarov has been a hot button topic since the treaty, which explicitly laid down provisions preventing changes to the Imperial Constitution for twenty years.

Short Description of Culture: Usnarovians culture is highly private in nature, very little is shared with outsiders. This translates to social interaction between Usnarov citizens, whether or not they are former members of the UFR or the UE factions. Usnarovian culture is similar to those of the baltic states, and as a result of so many armed conflicts, the military is seen as a less than favorable career. Those that do end up enlisting are usually disenfranchised youths who have believe they no future. Despite the government offering free public schooling, the sheer lack of decent educators is a serious problem in Usnarov, and those that can afford to become well educated are often viewed with high regard. Those that are unable or unwilling to complete school often end up in factory jobs or the military as previously stated.

The Military is among the few regular operators of automobiles, and many Usnarovians still travel primarily on horseback or by the few public buses that are still barely salvageable. Horse thievery is considered a felony, and killing a man's horse could warrant a fine of over twenty thousand Rovlas. As Usnarov is comprised of mainly islands, the fishing industry is what helps to prop up the struggling economy as it continues to recover from the war forty years prior. After the war, it became customary for those turning 18 to get a tattoo of their family crest on their forearm. Additionally, at the age of 16 it is considered a right of passage to receive an EK-47 or other firearm for personal protection, yet another remnant of the war.

General Information

Full Nation Name:The Queendom of Usnarov
Short Nation Name:Usnarov
National Demonym:Usnarovian
Capital City:Minos

Requested Map Location: https://imgur.com/SC6oORp

Short Description of National History: The Queendom of Usnarov has a somewhat troubled history dating back to it's inception in the late 16th Century, it has had numerous Civil Wars, some fought between those seeking democracy or communism, other times for religious purposes or even over the death of a Farmer's prized cow. Usnarovians are a passionate people, and will fight fiercely for their beliefs if challenged. The bloodshed came to a head in the late 1950s, kicking off a series of violent conflicts between the factions known as the Unified Federal Republic, which was seeking democratic government, and the Usnarovian Empire, which sought to preserve the lineage of Emperor Gal Burdock. This conflict left the nation in a state of shock and disrepair for its duration.

In the late 1980s this cycle of violence came to an end with the signing of the Treaty of Lacrov, and a compromise was reached between both warring sides. The Empire would have its monarchy, the Republic would have its democracy. The woman chosen to lead this new democratic monarchy was Maria Occisor, whom had helped mediate the negotiations between both sides and laid the ground work for the Treaty of Lacrov. Under her leadership the nation began to finally rebuild, but old hatreds die hard, and civil unrest is still widespread in some places.

The state of Civil Rights in Usnarov has been a hot button topic since the treaty, which explicitly laid down provisions preventing changes to the Imperial Constitution for twenty years. These provisions ran out in 2002, but the road to change has been frought with difficulty... While the Queen has almost unlimitted power in certain aspects of the nation's governance, she is often overruled by the Imperial Controlled 'Council of Members'. In the modern day Usnarov is beginning to expand its manufacturing sector, a task which will likely require the small and isolationist nation to seek out diplomatic ties with its neighbors.

APPLICATION REQUEST

General Information

Full Nation Name: The Democratic Republic of Suhkkot
Short Nation Name: Suhkkot
National Demonym: Sukkotim
Capital City: Krakau

Requested Map Location: Congress Poland, and the Wilno/Vilnius region.

Short Description of National History: It is believed that the modern state of Suhkkot was created when Turkic nomads who have converted to Judaism from the East settled in the region around the 900s, but the various settlements that were located in the modern nation-state did not become a united entity until the 1000s, when the Zebulonid Dynasty declared the Suhkkotid Khanate, spanning a good size of the Eastern portion of the continent. Soon, a dichotomy between Ashkenazi Jews of native heritage and the Turkic elite came about, and led to the collapse of the Zebulonids in the 1700s.

The Kaganid Khanate was headed by the Ashkhenazi majority, and was a period of great advancements in technology and culture under Khan Moshe the Great, who was known for traveling the world and learning from the cultures around him. It was he who invited Tartars, Germans, and other cultures to settle within the borders, but his successors let the state decline into one submissive to it's neighbors. As Khan Hannukah V Zebulon returned from exile, the Kaganids were deposed.

The Second Zebulonid Khaganate was a period of slow decline, and was firmly ended by a severe famine. During the 1900s, the idea of Zionism began to take hold among the nation, mobilizing the Ashkenazi right-wing into action and destroying the fragile First Republic, starting a brutal one-party regime headed by a National Council. Tartars and Germans were put through forced expulsion and genocide, and only foreign intervention by outside powers would stop the National Council's revanchist ideas.

Currently, the nation is taking a neutral, post-Zionist position to the world, and is in a developing state.

Capital City: Ionad

Requested Map Location: France and Northern Spain

Short Description of National History: In ancient times, Codagh was made up of five allied kingdoms, who before then were hundreds of tribes who allied together to assist each other. In the year 300 BC, King Tiberius of the Kingdom of Ceannaire marched the other kingdoms and claimed the under a new banner, declaring them the United Dominion of Codagh. This happened just after a war, which the Allied Kingdoms had barely survived. Tiberius, who had been a simple general in the Allied Army at the time, felt that the Gods were displeased with how the Kingdoms had fallen, and so wished to return them to their former glory.

Tiberius began with Ceannaire, challenging their king to ritual combat, as had been the tradition for hundreds of years. After securing the throne of Ceannaire, he traveled to the other two kingdoms who selected their ruler through ritual combat. These were the Triumvirate Kingdoms, who Tiberius felt had fallen the least from the Gods. The people of these three kingdoms honored the way of ritual combat, and rallied behind Tiberius, who helped them prosper.

He then sent a message to the final two rulers, offering them the chance to battle him in ritual combat for the throne of their kingdoms. They refused. Tiberius then sent messages to the people of the kingdoms, rallying the people against their kings, calling on them to honor the ancient ways. Unfortunately, the final two rulers would not, and war was raged. The people were forced to fight against Tiberius and the Dominion, but Tiberius won the war, and the people petitioned to be a part of the Dominion, which he granted.

He then set forth the rules and laws that would govern all rulers of Codagh, setting down the traditions we still follow to this day.

General Information

Full Nation Name: Islandstate of Covenix
Short Nation Name:Covenix/IoC
National Demonym:Cowen
Capital City:Cornix

Requested Map Location: The Pontine Islands

Short Description of National History: Covenix is the result of what a thousand years of isolation can do to a vassal state of the Roman Empire. Although there was settlement before the Roman empire, the expansion of the Empire is what really transformed the Pontine Islands, to become Covenix, into a successful province. The islands, being remote from the main empire, were widely held as a resort for the imperial family, as well as the people that the Empire deemed criminals. With two such contrasting reasons for existing, two very different economies began to develop on the Pontine Islands. One developed a thriving city on the island of Ventotene, modern-day Cornix, focused upon the enjoyment of patrons in Rome, while the island of Ponza developed shantytowns focused upon farming and fishing to feed the city of Ventotene. It was this shantytown which survived the fall of the Roman Empire. During the middle ages, the island of Ponza became the haunt of a small alliance of pirates, who became known to the local inhabitants as the Cornix League, after the local carrion-crows. After the eventual failure of the Cornix League, the islands fell into anarchy, slowly dwindling down to a population of around 1000 by the mid-19th century. In 1961, a group of around 2000 from mainland Italy, led by Meridiana Vocault, decided to take advantage of the chaos and take over. They stabilized the island of Ponza under one leader, Vocault, reclaiming the old island of Ventotene as their capital. In the early 2000s, the two wealthiest people on the island, Simon Vocault and the current dictator Amelia Cornix (ne Sepena) started to develop the island, creating their currently booming tourism industry.

Short Description of Culture:The people of Covenix tend to be very supportive of the government, due to the success of government industry as of late. The native population has a long tradition of violence and trial by combat, and this is exemplified by the schools, where scimitar fighting is taught as a required class. Preservation of the native culture is highly important to most people of Covenix, partially for economic (tourist) reasons. Aside from the beauty of the islands and the fishing available, one of the main attractions to Covenix is the famed ritual combats, performed with live steel, although the "deaths" have become more ritualized stage deaths now. Most native cuisine mixes the citrus fruits grown on the island's farms with fish and seabird eggs, both cultivated by the local dwellers.

Short Description of National History: The National Republic of Chunying was proclaimed in 1893 following the beginning of the Renmeng Rebellion against China, but a historical Chunyu identity has existed for much of East Asian history. The collapse of the ancient Qin Dynasty manifested itself in a series of popular revolts against the corruption of the imperial system, and modern-day Chunying served as the catalyst of a northern identity loyal to the original Qin. Such loyalties would only last few a few months, but formed the creation of a separate identity that coupled with the idea of Chunying being the “Gateway of the Empire”, meant that the influence of eastern states and tribes created a unique cultural identity and attitude in the region.

The Renmeng Rebellion was the result of nationalist anti-Imperial regionalist attitudes developing in the north, after decades of internal political instability resulted in the empire being virtually unable to administer its constituent provinces correctly. The nationalist uprising of Chunyu militias forced a prolonged eight-year period of warfare in the northeast, with such events as the Shenyang Stockade and the last stand of the Five Hundred at Shangjing creating a future idealized view of the rebellion as the natural culmination of Chunyu independence in the north. The influence of nationalism and youth movements on the early years of Chunyu independence cannot be ignored either, since the Nationalist Party of Chunyu (the Guomeng) adopted a moniker of cultural and societal liberation from anti-Chunyu influences, and created a new national feeling of the “Gateway Republic” being closed to the Asian West.

However the influence of Western nations in the Americas and Europe inspired the political process of Chunyu, and partially encouraged the liberally minded roots of the rebellion in the first place. By the 1920s Chunying had adopted a western-style armed forces, with an modern army that proved vital in the defense and stability of the country during the Yongguang Temple Conspiracy of 1933 that resulted in a temporary cessation of democracy in Chunying.

The 1933 conspiracy, alongside the Hozhu Gang of 1945 with resulted in the political purging of Shenyang, alongside many other anti-government conspiracies, showed that while Chunying had a strong national identity separate of other Asian states, it lacked a universal consensus on what government and party was best suited to represent the people. The popular view of the Shanzin Government (1958—1963) and the Anixi Government (1963—1970) as ineffective in combating the polarizing political situation in Chunying eventually resulted in the Nanchang Scandal, which forced President Shangshi Gaobai and the Deputy President to resign in 1991 after their connections to election fraud were discovered. A snap election saw Sheten Huan of the Social Front come to power the same year, but growing discontent in the Armed Forces over the perceived socialist beliefs of President Sheten culminated in the 1992 Chunyu coup d'état; military forces seizing control of the capital and ousting Sheten from power and installing General Qixin Jiarong as the military dictator of the country.

Since 1992 the Qixin Regime has been described as hostile to freedom of speech and political opposition, and accusations of torture and extrajudicial murders have been raised by members of the international community.

Short Description of Culture: Chunyu people are traditionally East Asian in belief and society, with a mixture of cultural influences from Chinese, Korean and Russian sources alongside the historic northern tribes and Mongolian people who inhabited the northern reaches of Chunying. An Asian “melting pot”, the synthesis of these cultures, has created a society that values familial bonds and reputation, as well as individual honor and competitive success among their peers. Beliefs and values are often divided among generational lines, and this concept of generational division reaches throughout all of Chunyu society, influencing interactions between men and women, old and young.

Short Description of National History: The establishment of the Confederation of the Rhine and subsequent German Confederation in the aftermath of Napoleon left increased feelings of German nationalism and a need for unity among the German people. The revolutions of 1848 and 1849 marked the beginning of a true national consciousness and permitted the establishment of the national diet in Frankfurt, though efforts to further unify and consolidate the region were complicated due to the meddling of Europe's Great Powers, in particular Prussia and Austria. The Seven Week's War that would take place in 1866 led to complete Prussian domination over all of the states within the confederation, including those in south, due to a much weaker Austria struggling in the aftermath of Kaiser Franz Joseph I's assassination in 1853 and internal strife that would lead to their empire's complete collapse. With the strength of all of "lesser" Germany behind them, Prussia soon exploited a period of weakness in neighboring France under Napoleon III to take Alsace and some parts of Lorraine. In Paris Kaiser Wilhelm I was proclaimed Emperor, with Germany being united under Prussia.

For the next several decades Germany would continue to grow in strength, eventually reaching the status as one of the strongest nations in the world. A weaker Austria and Bohemia would eventually become part of the new German Empire in the midst of domestic pressure. With the majority of central Europe firmly in Berlin's hands Germany would become Europe's strongest economic and military power, eclipsing Britain, France, and Russia. Greater efforts would be put into colonization and naval development, though Germany would have a lackluster colonial empire in comparison.

The early 20th century would be especially difficult for the German people. The World Wars and Great Depression would place a heavy toll upon the strength and unity of the state. The rise of socialism and fascism would force the state to enact sweeping reforms to ensure national unity, most prominently the creation of a parliament. Other steps including the implementation of socialist policies or programs had to be done with care to maintain the balance between progressives and traditionalists. The latter half of the 20th century saw a period of rapid economic growth and significant societal changes primarily with the younger generations. These generations were far more progressive than the previous and desired to see more modern values implemented and older ones abolished, leading to a decline in the monarchy’s power and a reform of the legislature.

Germany today exists in the aftermath of this social revolution and is a bulwark of democratic values in central Europe. Though it’s economic growth has slown Germany is a global leader in a post industrial world, with German corporations and products being among the best in the international market.

Short Description of Culture:From its roots, culture in Germany has been shaped by major intellectual and popular currents in Europe, both religious and secular. Historically, Germany has been called Das Land der Dichter und Denker (the country of poets and thinkers). There are a number of public holidays in Germany. The country is particularly known for its traditional Oktoberfest celebrations in Munich, its carnival culture and globally influential Christmas customs known as Weihnachten. Germans view and practice their traditions with pride, though significant changes have taken place over the past century to the more archaic examples.

Germany is a modern, advanced society, shaped by a plurality of lifestyles and regional identities. The country has established a high level of gender equality, promotes disability rights, and is legally and socially tolerant towards homosexuals.
