Akliland

Akliland, also known as The United Confederation of Akliland, is a political entity headed by the High King/High Queen of Akliland. The nation is made up of 16 states varying from kingdoms, duchies and principalities organised into the confederation. The confederation was originally made up of the founding states of Wivlan, Doster, Derssen, Sreweidermar, and Zusetad regions which had gained independence from the British Empire through persuasion of politician Dyst Farszst leading to the British-Akli Act of 1763 which split the island into two nations, The Dominion of British Akliland and The United Confederation of Akliland.

Etymology
The name Akliland was given by the British with 'Akli' being a word used by the Shwazen-Astellian-Akli language meaning "Our Terrain" or "Our Settlement".

European colonisation (1499-1963)
In search of the new world, The British would first settle on Akliland and established the colonies of New Sallisbury, Cleorough and Opoldreich. In 1521, French explorers established the colony of New Mersia (Nouvelle Mersia). Gradually, both the British and French started expanding their occupations of the island. Many europeans including Germans would migrate to these colonies which would take a big influence on the culture and politics of modern-day Akliland. At this point, France had controlled the colonies of New Burgundy and Nouvellesberg while Britain had the colonies of Farlands, Leopold, Altland, and The Farlands. Tensions between the two colonial empires in Akliland were up and many wars and disputes took place at Akliland during the Seven Years War with Britain gaining a significant amount of land on Akliland. When the war ended, the Treaty of Paris had France transfer it's remaining territories to Britain which included their Akli territories. The current provinces and colonies of Britain would be united under the new Dominion of British-Akliland in 1761. Dyst Farszst was selected to be the Prime Minister of British Akliland though he proposed an independent Akliland state separate from Britain. Parliament held a referendum and a conference for whether Akliland should be independent from Britain. Eventually in 1763, Farszst was able to settle on a deal with the provinces of East British Akliland gaining independence leaving the remaining Dominion of British Akliland in the West.

Formation of the Confederation (1763-1765)
The independent states of Wivlan, Doster, Derssen, Sreweidermar, and Zusetad debate on the idea of uniting into one nation to strengthen against the west ruled by Britain. The majority of the citizens voted for a monarchial form of government with a parliament and an elective base of monarchy. The states would then establish a confederal elective monarchy led by a High King/High Queen inspired by the government structure of the Holy Roman Empire (though later reorganised in 1830). The houses of moanrchs would then be established, in result, forming the Houses of Strenden, Angennes, Donhaber and Drelheim with more houses soon to follow later on. The monarchy quickly evolved into it's own unique form of elective monarchy following the passing of the right for citizens to be able to participate in voting a house and monarch with the majority vote taken account in the ballot.
