The United States of Michigania(1720-1790)

This nation was seceded by The Federal Republic of Michigania(1790-1796)
== History ==
=== As a Colony ===
In 1545, Karelya established Colonies in North America and in The Arabian Peninsula. Mostly in North America. The Natives welcomed the Colonists with open arms. The Colonists were mostly from Karelya. But, Little the Natives know that the Colonists were here for land, not to visit. The first war between the Colonists and the Natives was "The Native War". The War lasted from 1587-1590. The Natives were defeated easily. Karelya Established the Capital of Karelyan America Travierscht Stehlt(Traverse City[English]). But, Karelya was in debt after the 30 years war(1650-1680). They decided to tax the Colonists and this turned sour between the Colony and Karelya. The first Revolt was called "The Heschliht Revolt". It took place in Heschliht(Houghton Lake[English]). But, War for independence didn't start until 1690.
=== War for Michiganian Independence ===
The War for Michiganian Independence began in 1690 when the "Karelyan purge on the 'Criminals' ". These "Criminals" are Homeless, Weak, Mentally Challenged, and many more. This gave the Colonists reasons to gain independence. A Local Pro-Michiganian Independence Group called "The Sons of Freedom(Deu Sohscht oaf Pfreschte)" Armed up and Took over a Weapons Storage Facility in Detroit. The local Karelyan Colonial Gov't responded but was interrupted by Raids along the way by local Native American Tribes that are also Pro-Independence. The first Major battle was the Battle of Heschihlt. The Sons of Freedom reorganized into the first Gov't of Michigania called the "Revolutionary of Independence Congress". They organised Minutemen to take on the Karelyan Military in Heschlihlt. The battle ended in Karelyan Victory but was short lived. The 2nd Battle of Heschihltoccurred just 2 days after the first battle. The Revolutionaries came out victorious. The war lasted for 8 more years until the last battle. The Battle of Travierscht Stehlt was the last battle of the War and General Jonhen of the Karelyan Colonial Guard in Karelyan Michigania(1650-1698).
=== The Republic of Michigania ===
After independence, The first Gov't meeting took place in Travierscht Stehlt to discuss about what Michigania should be. They took a vote, and they voted to have a Parliamentary Republic. The first Prime Minister was Jonhen Kaschilten. Who we speak of was a fmr. Captian of the KHMS Glory until 1646 when he was discharged by Freidrich the Great(Falsely named 'Great'). Jonhen spent his term working on forming the basis of a Democracy(Karelya used the Greek version of Democracy) that was based on public opinion and influence. By the time his term was over(PMs serve only one term of 8 years) Michigania developed greatly since independence.
=== The War for British Pennsylvania(1715-1717) ===
In 1714, Michigania and Great Britain had disputes over the Pennsylvania region. Negotiations failed and by 1715, War ensued. The first major engagement was the Battle of Fort George. Michiganian Troops surrounded the fort and bombarded the fort for 3 days. When the Shelling stopped, Michiganian Troops entered the fort and captured it easily due to the small remaining survivors of the shelling.
The war continued. But the battles were mostly fought around the Lake Erie/Lake Ontario Southern Region. The most bloody battle was the Battle of Geaschtipfe Schteht(Buffalo) in the year 1716. British Troops stormed the city and burned everything near the center of the City to ash. Michigania sent Troops in to stop the British from burning the City to ashes. By the end of the Battle, Michigania had 16.32k killed/10k wounded/5k captured. In early 1717, Michigania and Britain agreed to a peace solution with Michigania Gaining northern Pennsylvania to the Potomac River.
=== The People's Referendum ===
At a time in crisis in 1720 since Michigania is now in Debt from the War for British Pennsylvania. There were about 25% of the population unemployed. So, the Gov't put out a Public referendum about the Current State of Michigania. The choices were "I am happy with the Current State", "I am not happy with the Current State", and "Not only unhappy, Change the Gov't of Michigania". The vote took place on Apr. 15th 1720. About 67% voted to change the Gov't of Michigania. So on May 6th 1720, A new Constitution was written and a new Gov't was created. Thus ending the Republic of Michigania and the Beginning of the United States of Michigania.
