France

This article is about the nation in VMJ World; for other nations named France, see France (disambiguation).
France (officially the French Republic) is a nation located in Western Europe. Bordering the English Channel in the north, Central Europe in the east, the Mediterranean Sea in the South, Iberia in the southwest and the Bay of Biscay in the west at its greatest extent. France slowly lost its southern and western territories due to inactivity by its population.
== History ==
===The Provisional Government===
The French Republic was founded on Oct 24, 2020 with intending to be a democratic republic however a low population forced its fledgling government to suspend elections. In response, its people created a provisional government with the nation's founder as president until the population was ample enough to have true elections. During this period construction of Paris and Bordeaux began with both settlements acting somewhat autonomously.
===The Corsican Issue===
On October 25th 2020, Sardinia attempts to purchase Corsica. However, could not afford the price of Corsica, under France's offer. France eventually decided to compromises and offers the creation of the condominium on the island of Corsica between the two states. Sardinia accepts the offer and Corsica becomes a condominium between the two nations. After a while, France let Sardinia have complete control over the island of Corsica.
===The Windmill Incident===
On October 28th, French and Dutch relations were incredibly tense. Eventually relations nearly reached a breaking point when a Dutchman named Mradper unintentionally built a windmill on the French side of the Franco-Dutch border. With both nations at the brink of war, negotiations began. While negotiations between the two states were initially successful with the provisional government's leader Goosw leaving Dutch equipment in the windmill. Despite this, its diplomat at the time, Pieinyoureye, rebutted. Arguing that since the windmill was built in French territory be it by unintentional or intentional means, was still in undoubtedly a French structure including its equipment. The issue nearly escalated to war once again until Goosw voided Pieinyoureye's statement and let the Dutch take their stuff through a treaty. The Dutch responded by removing then Dutch diplomat Multi from the diplomatic council with the French following and revoking then diplomat Pieinyoureye the right to represent French foreign affairs and interests. What followed was an establishment of a rough border to prevent any seemingly unintentional hostile actions from occurring, with Pieinyoureye pushing offers of building a monument at the site to show mutual respect and acknowledgment of both nations sovereignty to which in the end the Dutch declined. 
===Bigmanland war on Sardinia, end of the provisional government===
One hour after the establishment of democracy, BigManLand declares war on Sardinia. The entirety of Europe joins the war on the Sardinian's side, causing BigManLand to quickly become overwhelmed and capitulate. The conflict with Bigmanland was the catalyst to the instatement of democracy, as the French population disagreed with the neutral stance the government was taking towards a nation that had been actively and repeatedly raiding French territory. Goosw steps down as the provisional governor due to pressure, handing the title to Waffle. Waffle calls for an election to be held, in which Pie is declared the first President of France with Goosw as Vice President. France enters an era of democracy. 
===The Coalition Wars===
Nation of DaddyGod was established on November 10. Later renamed to "God" on the 14th, located in the region of Wales which usually went raiding its neighbours just as Bigmanland had done. France began mobilizing again, but fear ensued after the fall of the UTNE. The Dutch Civil War immobilized the coalition, and France feared that they may be alone if Indonesia moved against them next, a plan that they were certainly planning to implement. Luckily, the Dutch finished their civil war, and Indonesia was defeated in the Indonesian War. France later volunteered against Antarctica in the Antarctic War. 
===Decline and Collapse===
France continued to survive for nearly two months after the Coalition wars, occasionally entering into disputes with neighbours, but none resulted in any major changes or wars However, as the player numbers of France dwindled, they struggled to maintain their precarious position bordering powers such as Hoeland and the Netherlands. Second Provisional Government and the Second Republic was declared in December as attempts to save the republic failed. The republic was ended on the 7th of January, as holding the country became more trouble than it was worth.
===Angevin and the Restoration of the French nation===
Angevin was born after the Collapse of Rome but the nation became short-lived after 2 of the 3 founders left the nation. Goosw, the only person that stayed was pressured to unclaim land due to having not enough people to sustain it. She later unclaimed England, removed the English Channel land bridges and declared the Third Republic of France.
===The Third Provisional Government and the Third Republic===
The last French Republic. A shell of its former self as the population was little and activity was low. As attempts made to revive the nation failed, goosw remained to be active until the end to keep the French nation as a symbolic act.
