History: Originally settled by Celtic peoples such as the Boii, by the 1st century BC the territory of what today is Nova Bavaria was eventually conquered and incorporated into the Roman Empire as the provinces of Raetia and Noricum.

The history of Nova Bavaria as a state stretches from its earliest settlement and its formation as a stem duchy in the 6th century through its inclusion in the Holy Roman Empire to its status as an independent kingdom, its establishment as a large Bundesland (state) of the former Federal Republic of Germany and finally it's peaceful formation in April of 2081 as an independent Free State. Shortly after, more and more now independent bordering cities or territories decided to join the young state for a wide variety of reasons and are continuing to do so.

In Nova Bavaria, the rule of law and seperation of powers is held sacrosanct. Rules and regulations protect employees and workers, however, huge Corporations are given leeway due to the state of affairs. The ongoing nuclear destruction of the environment and the scarcity of resources makes technological progress inevitable for sustainable development, a certain quality of life and growth. While the basic supply of food and clean water aswell as shelter and a basic healthcare are all provided by the government in exchange for taxes, anything going above these basic necessities is mostly in the tight grip of one of the giant national or international corporations (MegaCorps) within Nova Bavaria.

In terms of politics, the influence of corporations can also be felt, especially within the legislative branch of the country. Many politicians running for office received favors, money, positive headlines or all of the above from one corporation or another. What was promised in return can rarely be proven, but seems rather obvious. This unsurprisingly lead to a lot of laws being passed in favor of said corporations.

However, the reach of corporations does not yet stretch into the executive and judicial branch. The right to the enforcement of laws through a policeforce and the measuring and punishment of individuals or legal entities according to laws through an independent justice system for example, is one monopoly the state has managed and continues to protect and claim the sole use for itself, with some limited exceptions such as corporate securities for example. That being said, dependencies between military suppliers and the state have always existed and continue to do so today.
