Etmylogy
The name Salvenia (Sal-VEE-nia) is an English pronouncation of the German Salvenien. It is suspected that the name is related to the city names Salzburg and Vienna, meaning Land of Salzburg and Vienna. It's related to the lands of the formal Duchy of Salvenia.

Foundation
Salvenia was officially founded by Hubert von Klemensgaden in 1850, after the collapse of the Austrian Empire. On November 1st, 1850, just 5 months after the Treaty of Buda, ending the Hungarian War for Independence, a revolt occurred in Salzburg and Graz. The revolt quickly spreaded through the remaining Austrian Empire, and on December 5th, 1850, Vienna was captured. The next day, von Klemensgaden proclaimed the Republic of Salvenia. Von Klemensgaden became the first President of Salvenia, and remained President till 1873, following his resigning.

Expansion and Recession
In 1868, Salvenia won a war against Prussia, with Prussia attempting to unite Germany. However, on the Prague Conference in May-June 1891, Germany finally united into the Rheno-Elbe Union, with the capital in Hannover. In 1908, a revolt broke out in Rheno-Elbe, and with Salvenia intervening, the Great German War broke out. After Russian Empire and France joined the war siding the rebels, Salvenia surrendered, signing the Treaty of Berlin on December 1st, 1909. Rheno-Elbe became the German Confederation (later, in 1914, it was renamed to the German Empire). In 1913, Salvenia lost the Tirol War against Italy.

Pacifism
After losing another war (Slovenian War) in 1917, the Moderate Pacifist Union (MPU) won the elections. Salvenia became a Federation in 1920, and declared official neutrality in 1923. During the Great War (1929-1931), Salvenia remained neutral. However, during the Second Great War (1953-1958), Salvenia was attacked by Nazi Germany and remained occupied till October 1957.

Late 20th Century/Early 21st Century
After being liberated on October 19th, 1957, Salvenia declared neutrality once again, but with the Conservative Nationalist Party (CNP) winning the 1959 elections, Salvenia became an active participant of the Great Cold War against the USSR and the People's Republic of Japan. But in 1989, the MPU (renamed to the Social Party of Salvenia [SPS]) won the elections once again, and Salvenia left the NATO in 1993.
