Kalestania

The Nationalist Republic of Kalestania (NRK) is a faction formed in late 2017 and would rise to prominence in late 2018. 
==History==
===AEF===
===Early Days===
After Jarck (then Sergei) left AEF, he along with Junebug482 and Docterf, proclaimed the nation of Kalestania and constructed a large wall surrounding a city on Lucid Gaming, it's new capital. Jarck became "Presidential Commander of the Kalestanian People" and Junebug482 became "General of the Armed Forces". 
The early months of NRK were rough for the group. Hard work and trial & error lead to the development of the first proper NRK vehicle, the Ant A-1. 
The Ant A-1 was tactically a failure, but valuable lessons where learned and where applied going forward.
===GMAP and the GMAP-EI War===
After securing an alliance with Sovinia, NRK entered the Garry's Mod Alliance Pact and declared war on ULSCI (then SDF) and FOXCBM. At first NRK had trouble keeping up with the other members of GMAP with NRK's first MBT, the H-10 Liger, which was based on the Republic Armored Corps X-10. 
This war saw 2 major battles, the first of which saw the first deployment of Kalestanian troops on a large scale. In the battle one ULSCI tank was destroyed before all NRK combatants where banned from the server for nebulous reasons. 
===Petrograd Pact and the New Year's War===
NRK joined the Petrograd Pact in early 2019 in a mutually beneficial understanding. 
The leverage gained by the alliance used was used in a revenge war against AEF and the New Ares Treaty Organization, which ended in defeat.
The second war against NATO, the New Years War, was much more successful and put AEF on the backfoot but ultimately ended in NATO's favor after intervention from the Inner Sphere Alliance using questionable vehicles.
NRK's membership, however, worked out poorly in the end as a plan to puppet NRK was discovered and they left the Petrograd Pact.
===Orzeł Alliance and NATO-Orzel Co-operation===
Main Article: [Orzel Republics]
NRK would be one of the founding members of the Orzeł Alliance along side Sovinia and The Phantom Regime. It would rise to become one of the "Big 3" alliances of the post-ISA era.
Fearing annexation from the Petrograd Pact due to false information provided by New Germania, Orzeł would enter a limited cooperative agreement with NATO.
The Orzeł Alliance would initially pair up with NATO forces during the Apocalypse War, but after the Petrograd Pact intervened on NFU's behalf and Orzeł engaged formal contact with NFU, they would switch to the Petrograd side of the conflict.
===CFC Conflict===
During the early days of 2022, NRK, IW, KAI and CTF forces established a foothold on CFC Build and Kill. The peaceful occupation did not go unchallenged however, as a coalition force of Izakian, Ludasian, Spektarian and IA soldiers attempted to remove KATO presence from CFC. So far, the Unholy Alliance has yet to establish a stable foothold on CFC and remove KATO forces from the region.
===Kestrel-Astria Treaty Organization===
In the winter of 2021, NRK signed the Kestrel-Astria Treaty Organization, becoming an integral member of the alliance.
