History
During the 1760's, the coastal part of the Kingdom of Poland and Prussia wanted to form a much stronger nation. After all three Silesian Wars, in 1764, these two regions merged together and formed the '''Kingdom of Iscanda. '''The Holy Roman Empire and Iscanda became allies by supporting each other with military supplies and trading in general.

Napoleonic Wars
During the Napoleonic wars, Kingdom of Iscanda wanted to declare neutrality, but Holy Roman Empire feared that Iscanda might want to "backstab" it at some point, as Iscanda's government had also good relatios with France. With that said, Holy Roman Empire gave ultimatum to Iscanda. According to the ultimatum, Iscanda had to give Prussia back to the HRE, break all the connections with France and to take care of warnings made by Iscanda's Radical Party that were threatening the HRE. Iscanda only accepted to finish off the Radical Party, as it made big problems in the foreign policy. Since Iscanda accepted only one part of the ultimatum and not the most important one (breaking connections with France), HRE declared war on the Kingdom of Iscanda. Troops of the Holy Roman Empire were mostly mobilised in the Prussian region, but the locals were against the secession from the Iscanda. The Kingdom armed all the people who joined the war and carefully planned traps, which would separate the individual groups of soldiers from the rest of the military. The most victorious win against the HRE troops was at the battle of Stettin, where Iscnadian troops surrounded the last military group, thus forcing HRE to withdraw it's troops. In the treaty of Lublin, HRE had to pay $60 million to war reparations. Since the end of the war, Iscanda's economy started dramatically rising, thus fixing the situation in the country.

World War 1
When Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia after the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, the Iscandian Empire joined Allied Powers on the 20 September 1914, when at the time, Iscanda was being attacked by the German Empire. Even with the help of the Russian Empire, Iscanda was fully annexed by the German Empire on the 2 October 1915, mostly because it was fighting for it's colonies. On the 5 November 1916, the rebellions have started against the Central Powers, namely against the German Empire in the "Talewan-Łódź region". The German Empire was losing control in that region, which became a short-living nation, the "Allied Republic of Talewan", with Łódź as a capital, when the Central Powers lost most of the control in the region. The Allied Republic of Talewan was dissolved on 11 November 1918, right when the war ended.

World War 2
During the Second World War, when the Nazi Germany was invading Poland, Iscandian government (at the time having the united Talewan territories), didn't have many options to choose from when it comes to choosing sides. Since it was bordering Poland, the defending nation, and having a large number of Germans, Iscanda wanted to sign the alliance with Nazi Germany, as it was the only way Iscandian citizens could survive.

On the 12 September 1939, Iscanda joined the non-aggression pact, thus attacking Poland in order to gain new territories. However, just 12 days later, on 24 September 1939, Soviet Union started conquering Iscanda, until the whole country was captured, on 28 September 1939. From that day, it was under the Soviet rule, until the 22 June 1941, when the Operation Barbarossa was launched. Nazi Germany conquered the whole country on 14 July 1941. The Iscandian liberation started on 6 November 1943 and lasted until 28 July 1944, when the whole country was liberated. After the liberation, Iscandian troops joined Allies until the early May 1945, when Nazi Germany surrendered.

The Empire
After the the successful victory in the Iscandian-Soviet Union war, the kingdom started conquering other continents. Their expanding started in November 1972, when the Prince Hamlin came to power and became the 3rd king of the nation. He firstly started conquering the Americas and he finished in the Oceania, along with a part of Antarctica. The Empire lasted until the end of July 2007, right when the financial crisis have started. Because of that, the colonies declared independence, as they didn't want to depend on Iscanda when the crisis hit the country. After the great loss of it's colonies, Iscanda was no longer an empire.
