Republic of Grassland

Grassland, officially the Republic of Grassland, is a country in the Nordic areas. It became a country on the 1st July 1987.

Etymology
The origin of the name Grassland likely comes from Old Grasslandic words "Græs landt", which means "great land".

History
Grassland was settled in the year 11,000 BC. After that, many tribes were founded in the land (now called Gwjereln). The tribes fought but in 1122 the Kingdom of Bredelven became independent. Bredelven stayed neutral until 1140 when it attacked the country it became independent from and over the several centures following, it rapidly expanded. In 1474 it attacked the last country apart from them on the island of Grassland and became the Kingdom of Grassland. The kingdom was mostly neutral apart from some small wars when in 1863 when the first Grasslandic Republic declared independence. They didn't last long though, being replaced by the second Kingdom of Grassland in late 1864. In World War 1, the Kingdom of Grassland was part of the Central Powers. the Central Powers lost, so in 1917 the Kingdom of Grassland turned into the second Grasslandic Republic.

In 1920 the Grasslandic Revolution started, making a new communist state. The Grasslandic Republic nearly lost, but managed to defeat the Grasslandic Soviet.

On 21 November 1941, The Grasslandic Republic had a coup and became fascist. after 6 months on the 16th of May 1942 Grassland joined the Axis. after WWII it became separated between East Grassland (Grasslandic Democratic Republic) and West Grassland (Republic of Grassland).

During the Cold War, East and West Grassland grew separate from eachother. In West Grassland, actions were made to keep the Grasslandic language, but in East Grassland, no action was taken to keep it. In 1987, the East Grasslandic Revolution broke out between anti-government forces and pro-government forces. The anti-goverment forces won the war and later that year, the two countries unified.
