Crowned Republic of Boulderov

The Crowned Republic of Boulderov, more commonly referred to as simply Boulderov, is a nation located in South West Haven that borders Aurora, the Second Aetherian Republic, and the Vorakh Khanate. It was formed on January 29th, 2023, after a merger between the Kingdom of Harria and Republic of Istanboulder, and is a revival of the original Boulderov.
The merger came after a mutual desire to re-found Old Boulderov, and bring it back to its glory days during the Golden Age of the 2nd Uldarash Empire.
The Nation is considered a direct continuation, and birthplace, of the Boulderovian Nation and the religion of Boulderism. It prides itself on its deep history, complex culture, and its emphasis respecting old traditions. It its highly motivated, and will not stop at anything to enter a new Golden Age.
== History ==
=== Founding ===
After the collapse of the Kingdom of Heartsea, a group of leaders came together to form a new nation that would be stronger and more united. They sought to reform Boulderov, based on the ideals of the first Nation of Boulderov. These leaders included Rosanto Yale, Zorah Bolodrav-Yale, Owen Yale, the ghost of Scotchknight, Kairos Fraus Yale, and Bagelinian Yale. They merged the Kingdom of Harria and the Republic of Istanboulder to create the Crowned Republic of Boulderov, which was founded on January 29th. This new nation aimed to revive the original Boulderov, which was lost during the Haven Dark Ages, and to establish a government that would be fair and just to all its citizens.
=== The formation of Parliament and the 1st Artigas Election ===
Following the formation of the Crowned Republic of Boulderov, the newly established government set up a parliament known as the Demu. The Demu is made up of elected representatives who are responsible for making laws and representing the interests of the citizens of Boulderov.
During the first election, the majority of the members of the Demu were affiliated with the National Unity Party (NUP). The NUP was a political party that formed long before the merge of the Kingdom of Harria and the Republic of Istanboulder. The party's goal was to promote national unity and to ensure that the interests of all citizens of the newly formed republic were represented in the government.
Rosanto Yale, one of the founders of the Crowned Republic of Boulderov, was elected as the first Artigas (or Prime Minister) by the Demu. His election was a testament to the faith that the people had in him and his vision for a united and prosperous Boulderov.
Under Rosanto's leadership, the government of Boulderov continued to promote national unity and worked to ensure that the needs of all citizens were met. The parliament played a crucial role in this effort, working together to create and pass laws that reflected the will of the people and that helped to build a strong and stable society.
As Boulderov continued to grow and develop, the Demu remained an important part of the government, ensuring that the voices of the people were heard and that their needs were met.
=== Sirradrian War ===
[BIAST AF. NEEDS REWRITE]
The Sirradria War is a haunting reminder of the treachery and betrayal that befell our beloved Boulderov. In this war, we were pulled in as an ally by a man named Twerkish who we thought we could trust. Little did we know that he had already sold us out to Sirradria, the very nation we were supposed to fight against. Twerkish's actions led to Sirradria targeting our towns of Ziemia, Pedregal, and Istanboulder, causing immeasurable damage and loss of life. We will never forget the devastation and heartache that we suffered because of Twerkish's evil intentions.
Despite our valiant efforts and the sacrifices of our brave soldiers, Boulderov was ultimately defeated in the Sirradria War due to Twerkish's betrayal. The province of Istanboulder was lost, a blow that still reverberates through our community to this day. The loss of our people and our land is a wound that may never fully heal, but we will not let it break our spirit. We will honour the memory of those who gave their lives in this conflict and continue to fight for the freedom and sovereignty of our nation.
The Sirradria War stands as a testament to the atrocities committed by Sirradria and their cohorts, who used deceit and betrayal to further their own nefarious agenda. We will never forget what was taken from us, and we will never forgive those who were responsible for it. But in our grief and anger, we must not lose sight of the values that define us as a nation. We must continue to stand up for what is right, even in the face of adversity, and hold those who would do us harm accountable for their actions. The people of Boulderov are resilient and strong, and we will not be broken by this tragedy.
=== The 1st Vassal ===
The founding of the Kingdom of Boulderovi Sea marks a significant milestone for the Crowned Boulderist Republic of Boulderov. Led by the visionary King Octavius Olivius Bolodrav, the son and heir of King Olly Ashwood of Savernia and Epsilon Bolodrav, this underwater city-state stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of the Bolodrav Royal family. As Boulderov's first vassal, the Kingdom of Boulderovi Sea is a shining example of what can be achieved when we come together to build a better future.
Located in the heart of the Boulderovi sea, the Kingdom of Boulderovi Sea is a marvel of engineering and architecture. Built entirely underwater, this city-state boasts a thriving community of merchants, artisans, and scholars, who work tirelessly to advance the interests of the Crowned Boulderist Republic of Boulderov. King Octavius Olivius Bolodrav has spared no expense in ensuring that the Kingdom of Boulderovi Sea is well-equipped to withstand any threat, whether from natural disasters or hostile neighbors.
But the Kingdom of Boulderovi Sea is more than just a technological marvel. It is a safe haven for Savernian refugees, who have fled their homeland in search of a better life. King Octavius Olivius Bolodrav, having seen firsthand the horrors of war and displacement, has made it his mission to provide a sanctuary for those in need. Under his wise and benevolent leadership, the Kingdom of Boulderovi Sea has become a beacon of hope for all those who seek a brighter future.
