Dependency of Senones
Overview
Senones is a Dependency of the Federal Republic of Paxem. It is located in the Northeast of Doggerlands, just South of Lancastria's Aleksandra and the Chisel Enterprises Fayyaad Oil Refinery. The city is densely forested and relies heavily on its lumber industry and regional airport, and does regular commerce with its neighbors Lancastria, Atlas, and fellow dependencies in Paxem.
History
Originally known as Gorath, the province was first established as a territory of the Almere Socialist Republic (ASR) in 3016. Unlike many of its southern counterparts, Gorath remained relatively unaffected by the outbreak of the August and October Conflicts which decimated the ASR armed forces and saw land from other ASR territories ceded to foreign neighbors. Following the Corporate Depression period of 3017 the Eastern Federal Republic (EFR) rose to succeed ASR as a nation, and Gorath was transferred from a Northern Territory to a Federal Subject (FS) of the EFR January 3rd, 2019.
The EFR was drawn into and remained locked in conflict with the Neu Corporate Republik (NCR) until December 24 of 3021, when NCR troops broke through EFR defenses and the nation was formally annexed. Gorath was renamed by the Republik Federal Government to Senones, where it became a Prefecture of the Northeastern Commonwealth.
Following a massive war between the NCR and International Defense Organization (IDO) the NCR collapsed on July 31, 3021, and was succeeded by the Republic of Paxem, moving the capitol to a newly built city in the East, Cyrene. Many former prefectures took the opportunity to leave the nation peacefully, Senones however remains in the Republic of Paxem today where it is formally the Dependency of Senones, and governed by the Paxem Federal Government under the Paxemese Constitution.
Culture
Senones has melting pot of demographics due to its association with the ASR, EFR, NCR, and Paxem.
