The Empire of Shahawkia, (German: Reich Shahawkien), colloquially referred to as just Shahawkia, is a self-declared sovereign state, often referred to as a micronation by external observers. It is a unitary parliamentary semi-constitutional monarchy that consists of eighteen territories dispersed throughout North America and Europe. Its capital city is Tyrillym[1]; its largest city is Lowe. Most Shahawkians are Christians – minority faiths include Islam and Hinduism; Christian denominations include Catholicism, Lutheranism and Protestantism. The official languages of Shahawkia are English and German; others also recognized nationally are French and Shahawkian.
Shahawkia is the only state remaining from the aftermath of the Urianic War; all other belligerents were conquered by Shahawkia. For the nation’s earlier history, it remained primarily at war with other micronations. Its main historical influence lies in Cyrylia, of which it expands its central influence throughout. In its more recent history, multiple successful annexations of enemy-states in Cyrylia were seen. The emperor is the head of state but retains substantial political authority, and the chancellor is the head of government. The constitution provides for two deliberative bodies, the Superior Assembly and the National Assembly.
History[edit]
Pre-history[edit]
Prior to the creation of the United States, what is now under Shahawkian claim was settled by Native Americans and hunter-gatherers in the early 15th and 16th centuries. European settlers and explorers came to the Americas in the late 16th and 17th centuries. The state that metropolitan Shahawkia is located in became a British colonial possession after the French and Indian War in 1754. After the American revolution in 1783, Ohio became a territorial possession of the United States.
Tribal era[edit]
During its founding, Shahawkia established itself as a tribe. Shahawkia was established on 12 March 2019 as Eagle Tribe. The Shahawkian tribal era lasted from March 2019 to March 2022. Early into its establishment, Shahawkia would establish ties with a neighboring tribal state, the Redwood Tribe until conflict between the two nations began over a claim to a hill. Shahawkia was established in proximity of a school playground along with the Redwood Tribe. The Redwood Tribe began inhabiting the now Wind Hill area at the same time as Shahawkian settlers did. As Shahawkia as a micronation progressed, further territories were established and claimed. Due to overlapping claims over Wind Hill, the alliance formed between the Eagle Tribe and Redwood Tribe was broken and the Urianic War began. Three main battles occurred during the Urianic War, or the Redwood-Shahawkian War; the Battle of Wind Hill, the Battle of Silver Path, and the Battle of Uria'ash occurred, being the prime smaller conflicts to occur during the war.
The Battle of Wind Hill was the first primary conflict of the Urianic war, occuring sometime in March 2019, tensions rose along the Shahawkian and Redwood border at Wind Hill. Both sides had overlapping claims which rose tension, and both sides believed their ownership of the hill to be valid. Both sides ascended the hill to discuss and come to an agreement. Redwoods began using derogatory language towards Shahawkians which resulted in verbal conflict. Eventually Redwoods would descend the hill back onto their own claimed territory. Shahawkian soldiers marched on Wind Hill, taking it, and General Blutigefaust[a] charged on the retreating Redwood soldiers, injuring around 3. Shahawkian General Blutigefaust[b] was fired from his position for his actions in battle. Redwood soldiers retreating and a successful final offensive would be the first Shahawkian victory of the war. The resulting events from the battle involved Shahawkian Emperor Stephen I facing punishment from the school's administration, which would cause the Great Shahawkian Raid, which effectively rose tensions and saw the war continue. Following the Battle of Wind Hill, Eagle Tribe would change its name to Daurczec Tribe to mask its identity from the school's administration.
Following the false-framing of the Emperor, Stephen I would initiate the Great Shahawkian Raid. Shahawkian forces would enter Redwood territory and destroy their unnamed settlement[c] and seize supply areas of stone and wood, which would impair morale of Redwood soldiers and the force of the Redwood army. The aftermath of the Great Shahawkian Raid saw Redwood oligarchs attempt another framing, however this was to no avail and the school's administration could not carry out punishment due to lack of evidence.
Several border skirmishes occurred which led up to a Redwood surprise-invasion which was quickly countered by Shahawkian forces. The key Shahawkian city of Uria was held off fiercely, and Redwood soldiers were then pushed out of Shahawkian Uria'ash. Shahawkian soldiers crossed the border and kept pushing towards the Redwood's recovering unnamed settlement.[d] Shahawkians pushed a constant offensive and the Redwoods would hold the line while others gathered important resources and fled their settlement.[e] Redwood soldiers would climb over a fence to escape, and fled, signifying the second victory of the Urianic war and ending the second primary conflict of the war. Uria'ash was conquered by Shahawkians entirely, and in an attempt to verify Redwood tribe was no longer active, Shahawkians conducted several patrols around the playground proximity to verify their suspicion. Shahawkians found that the Redwood army had fled east past the fence to the Eastern fields to establish a new settlement which also was given no name. Stephen I was informed of the new settlement and organized the Shahawkian army and marched east.
2 separate divisions of the Shahawkian Blue army entered the Redwood's new settlement in the North and moved South towards the remaining soldiers which formed a human shield wall in defense of the Oligarchs. Upon the imminence of the Shahawkian army, many Redwood soldiers fled and left the tribe. Shahawkian forces continued south. The retreating Redwood army finally turned to face the Shahawkian offensive. Few were injured in the huge tribal clash, and eventually a Redwood oligarch took off their white jacket and mounted it to a tree branch signifying the Redwood surrender. The Redwood human shield wall broke and Redwoods fled in all different directions. A final search was conducted and it was confirmed that the Redwood tribe had entirely broken up. The Redwoods had suffered the final defeat of the war which resulted in their dissolvation, and the Urianic war ended that day with a final conversation between Stephen I and the head Redwood Oligarch.
The following day, many Redwoods returned to their former land, Uria. Few Shahawkians were there and were unprepared for the attack they had suspected, however the group came for peace negotiations. They announced their break-away from Redwood tribe and declared they were the Grasunday tribe. Shahawkians and Grasundays co-existed in harmony in Uria'ash. Shahawkians ceded Grasunday Tribe a southern strip of land south of Uria, however this was later reverted when Shahawkia invaded Grasunday tribe in early 2022.
After the War of 2019, Shahawkia greatly expanded its territorial influence. A rapid spike in population growth occurred after Emperor Stephen I moved out of elementary school. Around the end of 2019, the Red Fox Tribe split off from the Grasunday Tribe as the second pan-Redwood successor state. The Red Fox Tribe expanded its territories closer to Shahawkia which was seen as a larger political threat. Multiple border conflicts occurred after its expansion. Eventually, a peace agreement was made between all belligerents, ending all conflict and bringing Shahawkia into a period of peace.
In early 2020, the COVID-19 Pandemic hit the United States, which put Shahawkia's population into quarantine. During the pandemic, Shahawkia would adopt its first language besides English, Shahawkian, which became known as the lingual revolution. A new discovery of uninhabited land would become the now modern Kingdom of Lowenand, which was formerly a partition between Shahawkia, Marauders Tribe, and a Shahawkian Puppet-Police State. Lowenand is, in modern day, a province of Shahawkia integrated in May 2020. Fort Sheyekey was built in Lowenand shortly after its discovery, which was the first military fortification built by Shahawkia. Over the summer of 2020, Shahawkia would hold its first festivals in Tyrillym. In the fall of 2020, Shahawkia would formally begin to engage in micronationalism, despite that in its early development, Shahawkia was a tribal state. Following its formal engagement in micronationalism, it transitioned to an empire for a short period of time before regressing back into a tribe. More territorial claims were seen nearing the end of 2020, which also expanded already existing states. The first Shahawkian constitution and a declaration of independence were written. An era of imperialism began in October 2020 which was when the state grew a bigger population. A handful of flag changes would occur at the end of 2020 and early 2021, including the adoption of the modern flag. A portion of Shahawkia's history would also be forgotten by Shahawkian veterans of the War of 2019, which would spark a period of time in 2020 when Shahawkia considered its foundation date to be October 5th, 2018, although further research on old documents proved the believed foundation date to be erroneous.
2021 – 2023[edit]
At the start of 2021, internal activity decreased. A new territorial addition was the biggest ever seen by Shahawkia in 2021. A state of inactivity occurred until March 2022. From its change in late 2020, the Shahawk Tribe was renamed to the Shahawk Nation, which was changed in mid-2022. Internal activity was picked up in mid-2022, following the commissions of multiple government staff. More territorial expeditions were held with newer areas claimed. After expanding diplomacy and establishing a colony foreign to Shahawkia's metropolitan area, the Shahawkian second imperial era began, which saw the addition of multiple colonies established. Cities were established all around Shahawkian colonial possessions, and its name was changed from the Shahawk Nation to the Empire of Shahawkia on February 8, 2023. Many internal changes were integrated around this time which saw Shahawkian states transform into more royal titles. Shahawkia's constitution had many forms that consisted of a disheveled conglomerate of ideas. In October 2023, Stephen I combined ideas and principles from all five previous constitutions and formed them into a finite document, which would be ratified on the fourteenth of October, 2023. Shahawkia in this period, would engage in imperialistic tendencies and rapidly and forcefully expand its influence on the surrounding nations. Around the conclusion of the summer of 2023, Shahawkia would discover an inactive micronation that overlapped borders with Shahawkia. A letter was sent to the head of state, however no response was received and Shahawkian soldiers were mobilized and invaded the nations of Nzhada and Estromada. The war only lasted six days, and Shahawkian forces invaded the Nzhadan capital and quickly conquered Estromada soon thereafter. Soon after, many colonies were transitioned into Archduchies, Grand Duchies, and Duchies. Era was integrated into Shahawkia as a dominion on November 15, 2023, and was soon thereafter transitioned into a principality. Shahawkia would annex territories in Europe of which were popular in visitation with the Shahawkian royal family. The addition of these four new territories would bring Shahawkia to its territorial peak, which it remains at in modern day.
Geography and Climate[edit]
Shahawkia's mainland has historically been fertile lowland for the purpose of farming. Shahawkia's mainland does not drastically change, and it is mostly flat with commonly little elevation difference. A citizen attraction, Ravine Ianshomo is highly populated by deer during all seasons of the year, in the same area, some thorn bushes thrive as well as occasional patches of poison ivy that grow on the riverbed of the Shi'a river in the eastern region of the Ravine.
