The member states of Kalmach are listed under:

Henessa

Skaien

Norddistaten

Arnssted

Hallessekratamia

Greater Easthaven

Kalmach also has its states split into districts, each having its own unique number which their state starts with. After which, the important cities are first. After these, the districts cease to have any form of order.

Notes:

The goverment in Easthaven is currently having issues with civil unrest in the capital of Hennessa. Independance movements and riots are mildly frequent, and are crushed through force, but not lethal. Casualties have not reached the hundreds, but multiple protesters have forced the hands of police operating in the region.

The demands of the protesters are for now, only the districts of 326, 305 and 334 to be annexed into Hennessa. Negotiations are currently underway.

Historical Events of Kalmach (964 BF-present) - 4.1

The Lost Days of Easthaven (964 BF-346) - 4.1.1

Known Information

Not much of this era is known by historians, as first-hand sources are very few. However, sacred texts mentioning Easthaven can be traced back to 892 BF mentioning Easthaven as a small city-state. Kalmash had changed massively since then, so translators are hard at work translating ancient texts.

The Kingdom of Easthaven (346-984) - 4.1.2

The era of Unification (984-1104) - 4.1.3

Invasion and conquest of Henessa - 984

Invasion and conquest of Skaia - 1035

Invasion and conquest of Norddistaten - 1038

The Diplomatic Unification with Hallessekratamia - 1043

As Hallessekratamian and Easthaven's interests collided, both seeing Aukeran Empire as a threat, they decided that a union would be most ideal.

As Easthaven and Hallessekratamia unite as one single political entity under the single monarch of Pekte I, there was the question of the name that this new union would take. They decided to make a new royal lineage, and name the union after this family. It was decided that this family was not strictly bound by blood and that adoptions would be a suitable resolution in the event of a sterile monarch. Henceforth, Pekte I would be known as Pekte Kalmach I, and the United Kingdom of Kalmach was officially founded.

The Violet Slaughter - 1049

April 4th, 1049 marks the day that the imperial government chose to commit one of the worst genocides in Kalmachian history. Having experienced massive migration from Giovonniland because of recent territorial success, and supposed freedom of religion, the newly formed UKK found itself divided, with the main religion, Yellowism, hating the newly-arrived Violetists. As such, a secret plan to get rid of them was formed by the nobles of Easthaven.

Over 8 days, approximately 13 thousand Violotist civilians were hung/executed by firing squad in masses. This would come to be known in modern times as "The Violet Slaughter"

Giovonniland, the nation to which most of these citizens had a genetic heritage, had an immediate reaction, immediately cutting all ties and sanctioning the UKK from all Giovannilandian trade. Giovannilandian relations have since improved after the government change as a result of the Kalmachian civil war in 1345.

Surviving violitists fled to modern-day Fauthur for a haven.

The Diplomatic Annexation of Arnssted - 1086

With the long grueling guerilla-warfare war of Arnssted, both sides found it most beneficial to sort out the war peacefully. Arnssted agreed to join the union, only if they were given official statehood. The only other member with official statehood at the time was Hallessekratamia.

First Colonial Expansion Era (1104-1163) - 4.1.4

Kalmachian Integration Attempt - 1105

In a period of 3 years from 1105 to 1108, the government in Easthaven started the process of integrating the member states of the UKK. Though the integration of the government was successful, a short integration like that was doomed to be ineffective. This is the event that is told to be the prelude to the first and second Kalmachian Civil War.

Second Colonial Expansion Era (1163-1239) - 4.1.5

Final Colonial Expansion Era (1239-1345) - 4.1.6

First Kalmachian Civil War - 1314

The Era of Instability - End of the Empire (1345-1394) - 4.1.7

Second Kalmachian Civil War - 1345

April 1345 marks the day that the Anti-imperialists rose against the Empire. Their primary goal was de-colonizing and granting freedom to the colonies. The Imperial faction capitulates in June of 1347.

At the start of the war, the imperial family was kidnapped by the anti-imperialists, and executed, thus bringing an end to the Kalmach bloodline.

Through two excruciating years, the imperial government did its best but was nonetheless surrounded by all sides. The fight was decided from the start. The imperialist plan was to capitulate Arnssted and Henessa. After, they wanted to split the remaining forces into smaller groups and then follow up by encircling and crushing them. All major generals and strategists of Kalmach had gone to the anti-imperial faction, so the plan went less than ideal.

After squashing Arnssted and painfully trenching through Henessa, the imperialist government decided to try and do what is mentioned above. This fails, and Hallessekratamia and the combined forces of Skaia and Norddistaten successfully capture key cities of Busakria, Samholdssted, Gránssted, and the capital of Easthaven. The Imperial faction surrenders and the civil war ends. The state of Fauthur decided to declare independence after realizing that the empire was doomed to fail, as they were hardline imperialists at the time.

As a result of the second civil war, Hennessa, Skaia, and Norddistaten were granted statehood. Hallessekratamia and Arnssted had their statehood reinstated, and voting power was divided among population in the states.

Modern Era (1394-present) - 4.1.8

Elections - 7.1

The elections of the UNK take place every 4 years. Next election is in 1424. A political party can serve as long as the people vote for it, but a single person cannot sit in the head of office for more than 3 terms, in an effort to avoid rampant corruption in the country. The current Prime Minister, Willsen Hessen has been sitting in the PM seat for 2 terms. Next will be his last, if he can win yet another election.

Each election has 3 phases. Phase 1 is where each union member count up their votes. These votes are then 

politicsphase1PNG.thumb.png.a8cc42999ae0fc8bc04d6adfd5483df4.png

At each election, a party must at the end of a 1 month period after the vote tally has been counted, hold at least 50% of the votes. Parties are allowed to cooperate with each other in order to get a 50%> vote size.

There are 199 seats in the parliment, so that each party cannot maintain an exact 50% vote share.

Sports - 8.1

The United Kalmachian Badminton League (UKBL for short)

The UKBL is an organisation founded in Henessa on the 27th of april, 1367. It was a formal state-sponsored union of different badminton teams of the states of Norddistaten, Henessa, Easthaven (Gr. Easthaven included) and Hallessekratamia. 

The best players of the badminton leagues are by far birthed in Norddistaten. Even with the small population, the best players of Kalmach history are birthed in this state.

These are the current top 10 players of the UKBL (As of the 1422 Kalmachian championship).

The Kalmachian Badminton Championship (KBC for short)

Every year on the 24th October, the Kalmachian Badminton Championship 


Language - 8.2

The Kalmachian language, or Kalmash is a language very similar to danish with a small hint of slavic.


Religion - 8.3

The official state religion of Kalmach is Yellowism, where around ~96% of the population follows it. They dislike the violotists, as they believe the religion to have relations to the evil god, Lillja.

Here is what is known about Yellowism:

Before the concept of time even existed, the higher being known only as “Gúl '' descended upon earth. Earth, being an empty wasteland at the time, was incredibly barren and colorless. Gúl took it upon himself to create the sky, the earth and the intern. After which he made three beings who would govern the world. “Plå” would govern the sky and the sea, “Drôn” would govern the land and “Líllja” would govern the intern. Here, it had the gift of infinite freedom of creativity, as long as it promised not to create life.

Living in harmony for millions of years, Plå and Drôn would make fantastical creatures known as the Pingsvines. However, Lillja was not able to create life. As generous as the all-knowing lord himself is, Gúl went too far with the power it granted Lillja. Being jealous of the gods on the outside, Lillja decided to destroy everything the other gods worked hard for, introducing elements such as death, natural disasters and worst of all, sin. It killed every single one of the Pingsvines, who had been roaming the earth peacefully for millions of years. Gúl, and the other gods, decided to discuss what to do with Lillja for a whole millenia, before finally deciding to banish Lillja to a life of infinite darkness, to make it repent for its actions. The one place Lillja felt at home, the Intern, was turned into a sea of black, with nothing to be seen in any direction.

Fauthur - 9.1

Being a former member of the Empire, and having recently changed in favor of a more democratic and modern government, Fauthur has good relations with Kalmach. However, these have soured after the invasion of Garahun.


Sekiya - 9.2

For a long time, Sekiya disliked Kalmach for preventing their expansion conquest in southern Nur in the Great Nuran War. However, their relationship has recently improved after volunteers from Sekiya arrived on the Garahunnic front to fight for Kalmach. It may seem like indirect support for the Kalmachian cause.


Ostronia - 9.3

A former colony, Ostronia is still quite under the thumb of Kalmach. Kalmach, having both a military presence and an ethnic minority in the country, is essentially controlling Ostronian affairs behind the scenes. Therefore, relations are very strong between the countries. Ostronia also lets Kalmachian planes and ships refuel and repair in their ports, even with the military base located in Tristhavn.


Norton Mast - 9.4

A former part of the empire, however, relations are unclear as we've yet to figure out exactly how much the Noton-Mastian peoples liked the Kalmachian presence in the country.


Ionia - 9.5

Being a very resistant colony, the only reason that these two countries still hold some sort of positive relationship is because of the defense and support that Kalmach provided during the Great Nuran war.


Giovanniland - 9.6

Giovanni relations with Kalmach have been unstable ever since the violet slaughter of 1049, however, relations have bettered since the civil war of 1345. The government's chance away from the imperial faction helped relations for the better since the new, more liberal government is focused on bettering relations and trade with all nations of Esforos.


Garahun - 9.7

Garahunnic relations with Kalmach have been rough throughout history. The main reason for the tension is the issue of their borders. Both claim lands that the other claim, so peace was never an option. The ethnic groups of the area of their border is seen below.

As a result of these tensions, multiple wars have been fought. However the most notable events are the following

  • The South Hallessekratamian war (1420-present)
  • The demand for South Hallessekratamia (1345)

Let us start with the demand for South Hallessekratamia. This was an event that happened because of a rash decision made by the Garahunnic government. They decided to take advantage of the second Kalmachian civil war and demanded a large territory from them in the southeast of their country. They threatened an all-out invasion if this demand was not met. As the Anti-Imperialist government did not want to fight a war on two fronts, they decided to hand over the territory, although reluctantly.

This landgrab by Garahun eventually made way for the South Hallessekratamian war. This was a war where Kalmach cited intentions of anti-opression and liberation. As of 1423, the front looks like this:

Originally, Kalmach's plan was to set up a puppet-state in the area by funding resistance groups in the area, however this failed after Garahun executed multiple resistance leaders of the area.
