Schlesierland (Shle-zier-lant), officially Duchy of Schlesierland is a country in Central Europe, located in real-life voivodeships of Poland - Lower Silesian, Opole and Upper Silesian. It is bordered by Germany, Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia. It has a population of 9 million. The capital city is Breslau (Wroclaw in Polish)

History
Not much can be said about Schlesierland's history as its a new nation which gained independence from Poland on January 13, 2017. However, something can be said about how it gained independence. In November 2016, a few people started a movement for Schlesierland's independence and many people liked it. The movement recognized Schlesierland as an official nation. After gaining 400,000 members from the whole Lower Silesian voivodeship, all marched to Opole and Upper Silesia to take it from Poland. On January 9th, whole Silesia was already being occupied, though Polish forces broke the defences in Lower Silesia and marched towards Wroclaw. Battle of Wroclaw, which happened January 12th, took 6 hours and ended with a Schlesier victory. Poland decided to just let Schlesierland go and end the war. The treaty included Schlesierland's independence.

On 6th June 2017, at 9 AM CET, a terrorist group called ISIS almost shot the Duke, Edd I, during his visit in Liegnitz. His bodyguard sacrificed for him. This makes Schlesierland join the War on Terror.

On 27th August 2017, at around 5 AM CET, Duke Edd I was found dead in his room. Doctors say he died in his sleep. He died at age 51. Later that day, at 1 PM CET, his 19 year old son Otto I became the new Duke.

On 30th August 2017, Otto I has announced that using the communist symbol (sickle and hammer) is now illegal in Schlesierland.

On 17th December 2017, the communist symbol restriction has been partially lifted - you can use it, but not for any protesting purposes.

Ideology
First, it was a simple capitalist and conservative country ruled by Edd I. However, after he died, Otto became the Duke, leaving the country conservative and capitalist.
