Minevgrad: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 22:44, 13 April 2025

The Duchy of Minevgrad is a region within the Balancín Kingdoms, having been absorbed during the Wiltshire Civil War, which resulted in the demise of the Wiltshire Republic. The state was originally a region of the Almere Socialist Republic, and then later the Eastern Federal Republic, before being sold to the Novanite Federation in 3019. The city became the 6th Province of the Novanite Federation, and due to its close proximity to it, became economically dependent on Wiltshire. During the September Mutiny, Wiltshire declared independence from the Novanite Federation and the day following the Battle of Utopia Planitia, Minevgrad also declared independence and joined the Wiltshirian forces. Though small, Minevgrad helped support Wiltshire to a number of decisive battles.

When Wiltshire formalized its constitution under the Third Wiltshire Republic, Minevgrad was a "devolved administrative region". The city was also annexed by the New Corporate Republic during their 3019/20 occupation of Wiltshire, also joining Wiltshire in gaining independence from the NCR in January 3020. Minevgrad was a "devolved city" within the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Republics, with an elected Mayor, until it declared independence from the Erimo Republic during the Wiltshire Civil War. It assisted Maximilian Augustus in the conquest of Walkerton, before agreeing a temporary (1-year) membership under the Balancín Crown. At the end of the 1-year agreement, Minevgrad's future will be up for discussion again. Many are advocating for it to become independent, with a constitutional monarchy akin to that of Zaandam and Lorikeet.
