Odessa

== Summary ==
Odessa is the biggest town in the Transcarpathian region(not including Cluj-Napoca) and has been part of many nations and Empires.
== Founding of Odessa ==
The town was founded when S2 started by Nykllor, the old king of Ireland in S1.
Throughout its history Odessa has been attacked by numerous enemy countries that wanted to claim it as their own, most notably the Soviet Union and the Bosphourous.
== The Bessarabian Empire ==
After the collapse of the Kingdom of Hungary and the dissapearence of its ruler(Dani1005, on of Nykllor's friends from Ireland-Hungary), Odessa took the towns of Lahore, Phoenix Valley among others and created the Bessarabian Empire, a flourishing and wealthy contry on the server, but one that lacked the military skill and numbers of the others.
== Pannonian-Bessarabian Union ==
You can find more info on the Republic of Pannonia page(beware that it is obviously bias towards the Pannonian side of the collapse and some details might be a bit exaggerated, so if you want to know about the events that unfolded ask people from pannonia that weren't directly involved, and avoid Bessarabians and Pannonians in old positions of power that might be bias.).
To make a long story short, the union started off really well. The two sides collaborated well and there were no major problems. The union was even able to repel and unknown attack on Odessa.
Here is where the problems begin.
Odessa was then attacked and shelled again by an unknown enemy, and this is one of the multiple factors that caused the union to collapse. 
Other factors include different political beliefs, a lack of trust from both sides and, like what happened to the Austro-hungarian Empire, power-sharing disputes.
Nykllor then left the server for over a month and left the reins of Bessarabia to Eazecrystal, who togheter with Lahore and Phoenix valley and created the Euro-Sikh Empire, a now deceased nation that was a rump state to the old Bessarabian Empire.
== A new beginning ==
After rejoining Pannonia, Odessa had to pick a side during the civil war.
Nykllor decided to stand by his old friends in Budapest and Cluj, amid some hostility from the sloevnian side of the conflict, so Odessa sided with Carpathia and is now the head of the Carpathian Intelligence Services.
During a referendum for the reunification of Pannonia, Odessa voted against it on political and moral grounds, and unfortunately the grudges between Odessa and Ljubjana from the collapse of the Pannonian-Bessarabian union hadn't fully healed yet, with both sides having engaged in acts of espionage right after the collapse happened.
One of the funniest episodes that happened on the server was when Nykllor and SirooftingtonYt(The Count of Alfold and Mayor of Budapest) went to Ljubjana to "review their town" (totally not spying :) ).
Odessa is now a flourishing town in Carpathia, with its notable members being Count Nykllor of Bessarabia and Eazecrystal. It's rekown for its formidable defences that include 3 sets of walls and a large armoury. 
Odessa also has overseas territories, having recently colonized an island in the Carribean.
== Political Party ==
The Kingdom of Carpathia has agreed to reunite with Slovenia to reform the Pannonian Republic, under the name of Greater Pannonia. 
Odessa is officially aligned with the National Union Party of Pannonia, a Party led by Nykllor that promotes equality between all towns, state subsidies to towns, equal representation in Parliament and the strengthening of the Armed Forces among others. 
Anyone is free to join the Party. It may sound right-wing from the name, but i can assure you it is a center aligned party with the interest of everyone at heart.
