The Duchy of Greifenmark was established in 1521 along the southern Baltic coast, encompassing territories now known as northeastern Germany and parts of modern Poland. Founded by a splinter house of the Teutonic Knights, the Greifen dynasty built a maritime power centered around the port of Sturmhafen, rivaling Lübeck and Danzig in Baltic trade.
Though Greifenmark never claimed imperial status, its wealth from amber, timber, and shipbuilding gave it outsized influence in the Hanseatic League and later within the fragmented Holy Roman Empire. However, its refusal to align with either Prussia or Austria during the 18th century left it increasingly isolated.
By the early 19th century, Greifenmark was battered by Napoleonic invasions and internal republican uprisings. The final blow came in 1846, when a famine and a seaborne cholera outbreak sparked massive unrest. The ruling Duke Alarich III abdicated, and the duchy fractured into city-states and rural communes.
Prussia, ever watchful, seized the moment. Under the pretext of “protecting German lives and securing the Baltic,” it occupied Sturmhafen in 1848. Within a year, the entire coast was annexed. Rather than resist, many Greifen nobles pledged loyalty to Berlin, while others fled to Austria.

History: | Origins & Rise (1200s–1600s): The northern Baltic coast was once ruled by pagan Pomoran tribes before the Teutonic Knights established a foothold. In 1237, the warlord-knight Ulrich von Greifen was crowned as Herzog der Nordmark (Duke of the Northern March) after slaying the last pagan chieftain and claiming a divine vision of a griffin bathed in fire over the sea. He declared his bloodline chosen by the lord. His heirs ruled Greifenmark, centered around Sturmhafen, a fortress-port of grim spires and storm-hardened stone. The dukes forged a dynasty obsessed with bloodline purity, coastal supremacy, and sea-wrought divine right. By the 1500s, they had subjugated rival Hanseatic cities and defied the Holy Roman Emperor, styling themselves. Fall & Annexation (1700s–1846): Greifenmark was drawn into the orbit of rising Prussia. The final duke, Leopold XII, fell to an uprising of coastal merchants and reformers. In 1846, Prussia marched in and absorbed the region, renaming it Nordmark and converting it into an industrial-military district. The royal family fled or were executed. The dynasty was declared dead. Rebirth in Shadows (1900s–1960s): Unknown to the public, a surviving scion—Ulrich von Greifen XVII, a child smuggled to Austria—was raised in secret by imperial loyalists and occult seers who believed the griffin bloodline must return. He served in the Prussian navy, rose to admiral, and secretly revived the Order of the Storm-Born, a militant monarchist cult. During Soviet occupation post-World War II, Nordmark was renamed Sturmovsk and repressed under communist rule. But underground monarchists used this oppression to rebuild support. They spread legends of “the Sleeping King at Sea,” who would return in fire and storm. The Restoration (1993–1997): After the USSR collapsed, chaos returned. Riots, economic collapse, and secessionist movements fractured Nordmark. In 1993, Ulrich von Greifen XVII, now a silver-haired admiral, returned aboard a warship from exile. His followers stormed parliament in The Night of Black Rain, executed the provisional council, and declared the Second Prussian Empire. He took the throne as Ulrich, abolishing elections and rewriting the constitution. By 1997, Nordmark was a totalitarian monarchy—a brutal, ritualized dictatorship in imperial robes. Modern Day (2000s–Present): Nordmark is now the Imperial, an isolated nation ruled by the Griffin Throne, with Sturmhafen as its blood-stained capital. The king is worshipped as both sovereign and divine—The Voice of the Storm Above. Public executions, imperial blood rituals, and elite Sea-Knight orders enforce his law. The Imperial Navy patrols the Baltic, and no foreign diplomat enters without kneeling at the Black Quay. Propaganda fills the streets. Dissent vanishes. Citizens swear loyalty with their own blood. |
Geography | |
Continent: | Europe |
Land Area: | 3,621.02 sq. km |
Terrain: | Nordmark is a cold, storm-wracked land nestled along the southern Baltic Sea, its coasts carved by wind, war, and salt. The terrain is dominated by rocky shorelines, twisted pine forests, and frozen marshlands that stretch inland like veins of fog and ice. The sea here is not calm—it roars. Waves crash violently against jagged cliffs and black stone outcroppings known as the Teeth of the Old Gods, often obscured in mist. The crown jewel of the coast is Sturmhafen, a sprawling imperial port city built atop layered ruins—Teutonic, pagan, Hanseatic, and Prussian. Its harbor is shielded by towering seawalls and reinforced iron piers. From the sea, its skyline bristles with spires, naval cranes, signal towers, and the massive black dome of the Temple of the Lord. |
Highest Peak: | Donnerkrone, 2 meters |
Lowest Valley: | Boglands of Welsbruck, Die Totensenke, 97 meters |
Climate: | Winter (November to March): The nation spends nearly half its year locked in ice and snow. Temperatures plunge to -20°C, with inland areas like Eisenkliff often reaching -30°C under blackened skies. Sea squalls whip across the coastal bastions, icing ship decks and burying roads in snowdrifts. Spring (April to May): Brief and reluctant. The land thaws unevenly, releasing fog and bitter winds. Freezing rain is common, and ice-breakers must carve open the harbors of Sturmhafen. Storms arrive without warning, howling across the cliffs and flooding river deltas. It’s the season of funerals and awakenings—the regime often uses spring for executions beneath thunderclouds. Summer (June to August): Light returns, but never gentleness. Days are long, but rarely warm—10–16°C near the coast, occasionally spiking to 20°C inland. Violent thunderstorms tear across the north, painting the sky green with lightning over the Greifenwälder. Humidity clings to the lowlands. Farmers grow black rye and ironroot under the watchful eye of the regime. Summer is short, bright, and tense—like a gun drawn but not yet fired. Autumn (September to October): Known as the Season of Black Rains. Cold wind returns. Fog rolls inland like armies. Storms swell the sea until the coasts flood with salt and silt. Amber hunters, driftwood gatherers, and naval patrols brave the surf only with armed escort. It is the Empire’s most sacred season—when kings are crowned and traitors drowned. |

History: | ⚔️ Founding and Doctrine The Sturmkronenheer was created from the ashes of civil unrest and post-Soviet collapse. In 1995, after seizing power during the Night of Black Rain, Ulrich I abolished the weak provisional army and raised a new force sworn directly to the Griffin Throne, consecrated in blood and storm. It is not a national army—it is a holy instrument of the monarchy. Loyalty to the crown supersedes family, faith, and life. |
