- History:
After the french partial invasion of the Holy Roman Empire in 1033 the empire was left weak and allowed many of the states to just do as they wished. This lead several city-states to declare war on Stelz. Stelz won them all and came out as a strong duchy-size nation. The people surrounding the duchy of Stelz grew worried and formed a giant coalition consisting of Neuborg and the Newlands, together they had almost double the power of Stelz. They didn't take long to declare war upon Stelz. Before all hope was lost a brave group of heroes (later believed to be a bunch of hired thugs) assassinated the dukes of Neuborg and Lowlands. They wore lizard masks to protect their identities. In the following confusion Stelz took the opportunity and attacked, securing both duchies. The duke of Stelz now decided to call himself king. He formed the UPG that still exists today. The rivalry between the dukes is long gone and they now live peacefully together as a strong nation. These events took place somewhere near year 1200.
The next 300 years consisted mainly of investing into the realm. Creating economic growth and stability. There was a few border skirmishes with other nations and some minor borders changed. But for the most part UPG existed in peace.
The year 1512 the then king of the UPG decided that there was much fortune to be had in the so called "new world". He sent a couple of small fleets with settlers to try to settle land in south america. The project was initially successful but due to the UPG's lacking navy control over the colonies were bad at best. After a few years the colonies had been lost to conquest or native raids. The king begrudgingly gave up on the project and since then there has been no official records of attempt at other colonies.
The UPG has never been known for its navy, instead it focuses on a strong offensive based land force. Known for pioneering new tactics, units and weapons.
To celebrate the heroes the ceremonial suit used by the royal family and diplomats during important events is black scaled armor. This is a tradition that started originally as appreciation to the heroes that saved Stelz from conquest.
- Religion:
Catholic
- Government:
The UPG is a constitutional monarchy. The UPG is ruled by a king. The king owns the Crownlands and serves as its duke as well as being king. The UPG's government works like this: The king makes a proposal, the dukes each get one vote (as does the king). If there is a tie the king's heir serves as tiebreaker.
Both the dukes and the kings inheritance are ruled by Agnatic-Cognatic Primogeniture.
The current dukes/king is as follows:
Lowlands Coat of Arms:
Lowlands: Duchess Maria von Hoenigsberg .Age 44
Heir: Crown Prince Conrad von Hoenigsbeg. Age 26
Neuborg Coat of Arms:
Neuborg: Duke Peter von Bahr. Age 40
Heir: Crown Prince Claus von Bahr. Age 21
Crownlands Coat of Arms:
Crownlands (Duke and king):King Karl von Stelzner. Age 62King Egan von Stelzner. Age 32
Heir: Princess Ella, age 24
Siblings: Princess Ella, Age 24 and Princess Katarina, age 30
Full title: Karl von Stelzner, King of Germany, Duke of the Crownlands, Leader of the German Military and the Protector of the German People.
Currently no pretenders
Not all children are listed here, for full info contact me (simply there is no need for me to make those decisions atm)
- Economy:
The currency used in the UPG is called the Royal Mark. The coins feature a crown as well as a picture resembling the current king.
(1 mark = 1 cu)
