 Achievement


West Prussia is a nation led by Chancellor Joshwah the Mad on the continent of North America. West Prussia's government is a Socialist Republic with very libertarian social policies. Economically, West Prussia favors far left wing policies. The official currency of West Prussia is the Euro. At 330 days old, West Prussia is an old nation. West Prussia has a population of 3,346,322 and a land area of 46,700.00 sq. miles. This gives it a national average population density of 71.66. Pollution in the nation is evident. The citizens' faith in the government is mediocre with an approval rating of 41.9730%.


“Then I looked at The Midnight Express and The Fabulous Freebirds. To me, that one was simple: The Freebirds. The real question was The Road Warriors v. Demolition. This matchup has stayed with me for many years, and to this day I am unable to arrive at a satisfactory conclusion. 8/10 times I’m going with The Road Warriors, though the lack of unanimity is bothersome.”

 

The year 2097 in Orbis was a year of Revolution in Germany, as it once more rose from the ashes and again established itself as a world power. Thus Der Beginn eines Neuenfangs was launched, uprooting the German government and once more establishing the Prussian Empire. This led to the immediate reclamation of Austria, as well as Poland and Czechia, and the establishment of a friendship with Russia. The Nation was dubbed Neues Preußen. However, Neues Preußen‘s imperialist ambitions did not end there, as they sought establish a presence within the United States. Strangely enough, a pocket of support was found deep within the mountains of Eastern Kentucky. Those Guerilla fighters quickly overcame the U.S. military, as they were much more familiar with the land and were able to use it to their advantage a la Vietnam. When looking for someone to lead the western front of this new Preußen Empire, Joshwah The Mad stood out. He immediately established southeast Kentucky as the capital of Westpreußen. This is where our story begins. 



Visit if you must, just don’t stay too long. 

Let me tell you a story. It’s all about how my life got turned upside down. It’ll only take a minute- just sit right there-and ill tell you how I became the Chancellor of West Prussia. . 
I was born and raised in Harlan Kentucky, where I spent most of my days on the playground chillin’ and playing some b-ball outside the school. But a couple of guys who were up to no good started making trouble in my neighborhood. I got in one little fight and my Mom got scared, so I hired a few guys to... kindly oversee their permanent removal from society. Then I formed West Prussia. 

What did you expect? A stinking taxi to drive me to California!?! I think not. I’m eastbound and down. Loaded up and truckin.’ We’re gonna do what they say can’t be done.



*** Please Note: West Prussia has NO INTEREST in warmongering, as we find war to be a juvenile, primitive act that is used simply because people are unable to work things out using negotiation. War is used way too much in Orbis, and should only be used as a last resort. We are of the opinion that raiding inactive Nations is permissible, but the initiation of any wars otherwise lies contrary to our beliefs and ethics. As such, our great Nation will only use it in response to attacks.

History: Though born in the United States, Chancellor Joshwah never truly felt “American.” He became interested in American politics at a very young age, and was disgusted by what he discovered. Using September 11, 2001 as one of many examples, Joshwah was sickened and embarrassed by the career politicians using the tragedy to further their own agendas- the well-being of the country be damned. These Congressmen and women weren’t concerned about the people they claimed to represent. Instead, it was nothing more than a very childish and unproductive game of Democrats v. Republicans. He turned to his English heritage, but was disappointed in them as well, as the English basically throw their hard-earned money at the Royal house, simply so they they can hold parades and maintain their ridiculously lavish lifestyle-completely at the expense of the citizens. Further, Joshwah discovered that the English are cowards. They talk a big game, but hide behind the skirts of the Americans in times of conflict. Joshwah then turned to his German ancestry. There, he found pride and honor. After college, he began to look into American politics even further, witnessing staggering amounts of poverty, homelessness, discrimination, and most importantly, how the few governed the many. He saw that millionaire politicians would claim to understand the plight of the working class-simply by taking off their suit jacket, rolling up their sleeves, and doing a photo op. Joshwah was disgusted by this, and began writing a manifesto. It contained “liberal” and “conservative” ideology, tearing down the childish walls that the politicians of old had built. Eventually, Chancellor Joshwah and a large group of like-minded individuals revolted and together, they established the Republic of Appalachia in honor of their German ancestors-and to claim sovereignty from the United States, which finds itself delving further and further into idiocy with each passing year.
The country is based deep in the Appalachian mountains, where family, moonshine, hard work, and coal reign supreme. In June, 2023, The people broke free from North America and officially founded the The Republic of Appalachia. Joshwah The Mad is known for his volatile and unpredictable nature, and an undying love of boneless chicken wings, booze, and a good hamburger.
The Nation is non-interventionist in nature, yet we will fight back if attacked. In a similar vein, certain directions toward the furtherance of our Nation may be recommended, but NEVER commanded. We are sovereign and take orders from no one.
Geography
Continent: North America
Land Area: 75,156.18 sq. km
Terrain: The majority of roads are extremely curvy and consist of only two lanes. If you go too fast, you’ll end up over the side of a mountain, because there aren’t many guardrails either. The area is known for its mountains, and welcomes visitors from all over the county who come to take photographs and ride ATV’s on the numerous trails carved out within the mountains.
Highest Peak: Black Mountain, 0 meters
Lowest Valley: , 0 meters
Climate: The area experiences all four seasons. However, it seems like spring, fall, and winter only last a couple of weeks before the hot and humid summer kicks in. Winter is rather humorous, because a few times a year, we will experience a “dusting” of snow. When this happens, people flock to stores to buy milk and bread, and the schools (and everything else) close.
