Relations[This Section is Being Reworked]
Sweden: Gotlanhamn retains a large friendship with Sweden,  it gained independence from Sweden in 1809. Relations were rather thin until the first and second world war came where the Swede's provided much support like weapons, resources etc, even though remaining neutral. Gotlanhamn's dream is to beat Sweden in ice hockey and cross-country skiing.

Denmark: Denmark is Gotlanhamn's buddy, thanks to geographical distance, though when Bornholm held polls to join Gotlanhamn in 1951 tensions slightly rose

Finland: Finland is Gotlanhamn's biggest trade partner, and 30% of Gotlanhamnian exports go to Finland. They're good friends thanks to the Gotlanhamnian assistance given to the whites in the Finnish Civil war, and WW2 where they fought together, mainly on the same fronts and sometimes battalions.

Estonia: A good friend and trade partner, and sports rival. The root of Gotlanhamnian Estonian friendship stems from the occupation of northern Estonia in WW2, where the Gotlanhamnian government promised to westernize the occupied lands, which seemed a very distant thing when under Soviet occupation.

Latvia, Lithuania and Poland: All three nations are rather distant to Gotlanhamn, even though they are close geographically, they share rather few things.

Russia: Gotlanhamn tries to distance itself from Russia as during the napoleonic wars russia had vassalized the islands, and the revolts in Hiiuma and Saarema caused a small war which ended in a bloody victory for the Gotlanhamnians thanks to the russians only sending 5 thousand men, and to the tens of thousands of souls lost in World War 1 and 2. They still fear the Russians, as they would be crushed by Russia's military might very quickly.

Germany: Gotlanhamn is a close friend of Germany, as they helped fend of the Russians in World War I, and as they fought together in World War II. They maintain good trading relations and both are a part of NATO.

The Russian Era
1809- After the Russian victory over the Swedes in the napoleonic wars, Finland becomes a part of Russia, and so does the Island of Gotland. A project for a major military base in Visby begins, but only existed as a plan.

1811- After 2 years of being under Russian control, the constant riots in Åbo(Turku) and Pori lead Alexander I to make the conclusion to create a vassal state, which will be governed by a Russian puppet in the Baltic Sea. The reason for this conclusion is because of the high amount of Swedes in the area, making it nearly impossible for the Russians to control it directly. A message to all Swedish citizens in Pori and it's surrounding areas to move to Gotlanhamn or become Finnish citizens is Issued, 27 000 people move to Åbo, of which 11 000 are Finns, looking to live a more free life. The vassal nation is named Gotlanhamn, and Åbo becomes the capital

1822 - A heavy tax is levied and customs duty officers are placed in Gotlanhamn by the Russians, because of smugglers and inco-operation.

1824 - Small rebellions are becoming a common occurance in the nation, and new taxes are set to place on sugar, coffee, and other luxury goods. The Russian occupation force is increased to 5 000.

The Rebellion of 1827
1827 February - Revolution begins in Åbo, because of stacking anti-russian morale. The Russian diplomats are publicly executed, with all Russian immigrants and soldiers either exiled or killed, estimates say that around 5 thousand russians left the country in this year, with 3 thousand soldiers killed, and rest are unaccounted for.

1827 March - (Early) Åland and Gotland declare independence from Russia, forming the state of Gotlanhamn. (Late) Enraged by the coup in Åbo the Russian garrisons from Helsinki and St. Petersburg march to Åbo, and capture it, with 6 200 Gotlanhamnian casualties, and 3 210 Russian casualties.

1827 April - Sweden sends provisions and men, treating the Gotlanhamnian rebellion as a proxy war. 12 000 Swedish troops land in Gotland, and then are shipped to Åland. Åland is under siege, until the Swedish troops fracture the Russian garrison of 8 700 men.

1827 June - The Gotlanhamnian siege of Åbo begins. The Russians send 20 000 men from St Petersburg and Finland to extinguish the revolt.

1827 July - Åbo is reclaimed, and the fort is prepared for the incoming Russian assault. The Russian attack force of 20 thousand has low morale, as over 50% of them are Finnish, who support Gotlanhamnian independece, and the Russian troops really have no personal ties to the location, except some who's friends or family were harmed in the deportation/massacre.

1827 August - The Russian attack force grows thin with constant bombardment from the castle of Åbo, and decreasing morale. Gotlanhamn holds onto their lands on the Finnish Peninsula.

1827 October - A peace treaty is signed in Hanko, granting independence to Gotlanhamn.

Era of Expansion
1828- The exiled prince of Vasa: Gustav Holstein-Gottorp, is asked to become the monarch of Gotlanhamn, he accepts. The Royal family name is changed to Holgersson.

1833- The king is assassinated by Yurenev Denisovich, as an attempt to destabilize the nation and allow Russia to regain the islands. Instead of becoming unstable, Gotlanhamn becomes more united, because of a threat glooming upon them. 8 year old Philip becomes the king of Gotlanhamn

1834- Russia threatens with war, after several ships were sunken in the port of St. Petersburg, but decides not to take action.

1842- A great fire rages in Åbo and most of the city is gone, capital becomes Visby. Many believe that the fire was lit by Russians, but no proof could be found.

1849- Åbo rebuilt, capital remains in Visby

1862- The islands of Hiiuma and Saarema revolt. They took an example of the western islands, and decided to take matters into their own hands, instead of waiting for Russia to let Estonia go. Hiiuma and Saarema successfully are taken over by rebels, but mainland Estonia remains in a tight Russian hold. Gotlanhamn decides to assist "New Estonia" with troops and ships. battle of Hiiuma occurs, where 8 000 russians die, and 5 600 Gotlanhamnians and Estonians die. Later the 2nd battle of Hiiuma occurs where Russia has 11 240 casualties, and Gotlanhamn and "New Estonia" have 9 230 casualties. Russia decides the islands are not worth losing tens of thousands of lives over, and they give up. The islands are successfully kept independent, and the treaty of Virtsu is signed, where Hiiuma and Saarema gain independence.

1863- "New Estonia" With it's low population, military and economy decides to join Gotlanhamn, it's accepted to the union, but it takes until 1910-ish until the islands are properly Gotlanhamnian, with Swedish as the primary language.

1892- Sweden presents a proposition to the government of Gotlanhamn, to join Sweden, but the Tsar of Russia says that if Gotlanhamn says yes to the proposal, it will be invaded. Gotlanhamn decides to decline the offer from Sweden and remain independent.

World War I and the Great Depression
1914 September- Russia declares war, and assaults East Gotlanhamn with 3 000 troops, with some air support from St Petersburg. Gotlanhamn signs an alliance with Germany, and joins the Central Powers. The islands of Hiiuma and Saarema are lost.

1914 October- Russia invades the province of Åbo through Finland, making the same mistake as in the independence war of 1827, Russia's invasion force of 18 000, was made up of 40% Finns, and the rest Russians, and the Finns had little motive to attack Gotlanhamnian troops, often when their supervisors weren't looking, some joined the Gotlanhamnians. The estimated Finnish troops in the Gotlanhamnian army during the war is 4 000.

1914 December- The siege of Åbo begins. 9 000 Russian troops with artillery support hammer the city of Åbo. The Germans send a force of 7 000 troops to aid Gotlanhamn. On December 21st, the frozen sea from Åland to Åbo is crossed by 21 000 Gotlanhamnian troops, of which 7 000 are German. The troops flanked from the west, destroying the siegehold on Åbo, with roughly 3 000 Russian defenders dead. The Russians retreat to Tampere, awaiting reinforcements from Russia, but due to the conflict in central Europe, only 12 000 are sent.

1915 January- The Gotlanhamnian civilians and soldiers dig trenches 50 and 60 kilometers north and east of Åbo. Radio stations are set up to make partisan attacks on Russian artillery dens. Russian navy hammers Visby and Hiiuma.

1917 March- Russia breaks the truce, and invades Salo, capturing it after a swift battle and little losses. 15 000 Russians begin their march towards Åbo. "The Massacre of Paimio" takes place, after 1 200 Russian troops stop for a rest in the woods of Ruska. Local civilians silently killed every soldier sleeping indoors, by burning barns, houses and cutting throats. Several hundreds of Russian troops who were scrambling to organize a defense against the civilians were cut short by a surprise attack by Guerrilla troops. A total estimate of 940 Russian soldiers died in the 20 minutes of the massacre, and 56 Gotlanhamnians.

1917 April- The remaining russian troops march west, weakened to only 9 300 after several Guerrilla attacks. Their morale weakened by Gotlanhamnian artillery. "The Battle of Kaarina Road" Occurs, as half the Russian soldiers are surprised by tens of gatling gun dens and siege by 800 Gotlanhamnian militia men. 2 450 Russians are estimated to have died and 620 Gotlanhamnians.

1917 May- "The 2nd Battle of Kaarina Road" Occurs as Gotlanhamnian civilians sabotage russian artillery and airfields in Finland, and the unassisted force of 4 200 remaining Russian troops try to pass through the northern woods surrounding the Kaarina Road. A 12 day standstill takes place, until 520 Gotlanhamnian troops try to pass the no man's land between the two factions, ending in a swift death in mud and soil. Encouraged by this, thinking the road was now clear, the Russians push through, but a volley of 1 230 rifles is fired from the trenches and artillery land in the midst of the advancing Russian troops. No clear number of dead Russians or Gotlanhamnians is available, as corpses sank into the mud and many were MIA, but the estimates number from 1 200 to 3 400 Russian casualties and 720 to 1 200 Gotlanhamnian casualties.

1917 June- The peace treaty is signed in Viipuri, and Russia makes a 20 year non-aggression pact. The war is over with a total of 12 340-ish dead Gotlanhamnians and 19 230-ish Russians dead. Gotlanhamn exits the war, and is not influenced by the final punishment of the Central powers in 1918.

Civil War, and the Road to WW2
1918 January- The civil war of Finland begins, with the reds taking over Helsinki on the 28th, the Gotlanhamnian government decided to take action after Pehr Evind Svinhufvud and some other senate members fled from Helsinki on a Gotlanhamnian trade ship, which transported them to Turku. Svinhufvud, the Finnish president asked for a small relief force of Gotlanhamnian troops to assist in the training of white troops, as most of the Finnish forces hadn't seen any action and had no experience.

1918 February- 3 000 Gotlanhamnian soldiers sail to Vaasa and begin training soldiers. Kurt Rehnquist, the leader of the red party, encouraged by the Finnish red uprising, begins gathering supplies and planning a revolution.

1918 March- On March 19th, Kurt Rehnquist, positioned in Rauma, takes over the city hall with the red party. Similar uprisings orchestrated by pro-communist leaders supported by the Finnish and Russian reds take over all of mainland Gotlanhamn except of Åbo, Salo and Hangö. North Åland is quickly overrun by the red party as well, but the blues(Democratic Gotlanhamnians) hold a stern front in Godby.

1918 April- A relief force from Visby arrives to Åland, crushing the reds in North Åland. A red uprising in Hiiuma is halted by the blue guard before it properly begins, partakers are executed. Hangö falls to the red grasp, with Red Finns pouring over the border to help the Gotl. reds. The red uprising in Åbo was struck down by the blue guard, thanks to the local red leader being drunk on the night of the revolt, and was replaced by a military officer, who was desperately unmanned for the uprising, with only 70 reds against the 2 382 blues garrisoned in Åbo, the officer surrendered without a fight and was imprisoned for 10 years. Åbo held strong with major defenses were able to be constructed before the main red army of 7 890 troops from Rauma came. Troops from Åland are sent from to reinforce the Åbo defences. The 2nd battle of Åbo begins on the 27th. During the night red artillery begins pummeling Åbo, and one hour later 5 000 red soldiers enter the city, after 2 days of brutal house to house combat, the reds emerge victorious in north Åbo, with 3 458 casualties and the blues with 2 348 casualties. The northside of the Aura-river comes under red control, leaving the blues with merely 1 548 defenders in the south, all bridges are blown up. Salo still holds

1918 May- Swedish reinforcements of 2 200 men arrive in Åbo, with men from Saarema and Hiiuma. The 1st battle of the Aura-river ensues as the reds attempt to cross the river by quickly bringing mobile bridges. Blues and the Swedes begin firing on the advancing reds, killing all the bridge carriers, and then leading to a week long stand off in the houses next to the river with snipers stalking the windows and roads for any targets to shoot. On the 16th of May, Naantali is recaptured by a blue force of 3 541. 2 000 troops as reinforcements are shipped there after the city is secured. On the 17th, the reinforcements march to Åbo and siege the reds. After two days new brutal house to house combat, the reds, without a supply line surrender and the officers are transported to Hiiuma as prisoners, and the rest are kept in PoW camps on the mainland. On the 25th, Helsinki is recaptured by the Finns, and the Gotlanhamnian troops from Finland march to Hangö, and take it after a four hour siege. A painful and slow advance from Åbo, towards Pori, where blues are still holding out with desperation with little supplies coming Uleåborg, Sweden, begins.

1918 June- On the 2nd of June, the 2nd battle of Pori begins, as 3 400 reds rush the city, with merely 600 blues left defending. Cannons and rifles from the city pummel the reds, with over 1 230 casualties before they even reach the city, this move is considered to be the biggest mistake in the civil war. A newly appointed officer commanded the hardly trained youngsters, aged 17-19 to rush over the river that halves the city in a state of panic and need to achieve victory in a quickly worsening situation for the reds. After a day of rapid advancement by the reds, a final stand in central Pori occurs, with 27 blues holding out in the "Middle-Pori Church" the reds are now numbered at 291. After three hours at night, the conflict is over, with two blues surviving, and 31 reds retreating to Eura.
