Umbria (S8)

== Confederation of Italy (S8) ==
The Confederation of Italy, formerly known as the Tribal Republic of Umbria, is a S8 nation located south of Alekia (S8), encompassing the former italian territories of the Mediterrean Union. Its leader is TheDeserter.
== History ==
Italy's history begins during the launch of Season 8 on the 12th of February 2022, back when it was called "the Tribal Republic of Umbria" and only encompassed the Trasimeno lake and its sorroundings. The tribe, however, couldn't expand to the extent of its original claims because of the creation of a new claiming policy in which no one would claim "unless the TPS was above 18", in response of the increasing lag and steady decline of the TPS, and its leader deciding to not expand to avoid possible "policy-breaking".
One week and a half after its establishment, the tribe of Umbria managed to restore its original claims to the east and eventually all of Italy after CallSignAce, the leader of the Mediterrean Union, offered to sell it for $100k.
During the span of the following two weeks, three new players, Fhoz, Memescha and DjagaDjaga, joined the nation.
== Religion ==
One of the main characteristics of the Tribal Republic of Umbria is its Religion: The Way of the Horse.
The Horse is a creature venerated and curated by the inhabitants of Umbria, who also built a Statue in its honour.
