Eberland

Eberland (Eh - br La nd) officially The Kingdom of Eberland is a sovereign state in the northern part of Europe. It covers 344.7 square kilometers (note: probably not accurate at all.) and has a population of about 3.6 million. It is a member of the EU, NATO, and the schengen area. It has a seat on the UN, and is recognized by all member states.

War of 1706
There was a distinct culture forming in the northern part of Germany. People were scared. There was some fighting, mostly battles in the region. The first battle was The Battle of Bremen. It was a bloody battle. Over 4,000 people died that day. The people in the northern part of Lower Saxony considered themselves Eberlish, after King Jack Eberla.

Treaty of Everbe
On the 15th of September, 1710, the War of 1706 was officially ended. Both sides signed a treaty stating that the Kingdom of Eberland exists and gets to annex their claims to land.

It also stated that no wars will be fought on the mainland. The Eberlanders made this day a Holiday. They call it "Day of First Rule" as that is the first day of their independence. Every One hundred years, they have a special celebration called "100 Year Rule". It is on this day that everyone comes to the capital, Everbe, to celebrate another 100 years of rule.

Treaty of Bremen
On the 30th of March, 1747, a referendum was held whether or not to join Eberland. 50.679% of Bremen citizens voted to be annexed into Eberland. 5 years later all the paperwork was signed and it became official. In those five years, public support grew from 51% to 63%.

The Space Race
In 1990 Eberland launched its first rocket into space. It was successful, in that it didn't explode. Eberland would continue to impress nations on how fast they were moving through the tech tree. Only 15 years after launching their own rocket, they landed on the moon, with 3 men on board. Then in 2010 they launched another rocket to the moon with the hopes of setting up the first moon colony. They landed on the moon successfully and started to build up its base.

They continue to support their moon colony with goods shipping in monthly. This moon colony has changed the UN's Outer Space Treaty. Eberland recognizes their moon colony as another district, the Ebermoon District.

Keplearth Colonization
Eberlanders didn't have anywhere else to go. They partnered up with SpaceX to go on an interstellar fight to Keplearth, a newly discovered planet with human-like beings on it.

3...2...1..LAUNCH! The Eberla X 21 was launched. The Eberla X 21 is a revolutionary spacecraft that can go beyond lightspeed. Well, kinda. It is able to warp time in such a way that if it was traveling very, very, very close to lightspeed, it could go to lightspeed and beyond. It is very risky though. The ship could depressurize, or lose all of its air (as in the stuff we breathe in). Fortunately, this never happened, as the Eberla X 21 was able to reach Keplearth.

Districts
Eberland is divided into 5 mainland districts, and 3 outer districts. Each mainland district has a district capital. Each district capital is the main economic and administrative hub for each district. And what about the outer districts? Well, those are Eberland's space colonies.

Foreign Relations
Allies with Rhinia (Treaty of Cologne)

Allie request with Ulaidh

Maintains a good relationship with the rest of the world. Eberland is very neutral on most subjects.
