## History

### Prussian Civil War

Shortly after the reunification of the Germanic States, a political party by the name of Antiimperialistische Partei came to prominence in the Prussian Congress led by Senator Wolfgang Blümel.

The APP began doing anti-prussian speeches and causing strikes all throughout the bankrupt nation, the government decided to crack down on them, causing the beginning of the Prussian Civil War.

In Early 1913, Wolfgang Blümel and Anti-Prussian military elements from Frankfurt and Düsseldorf declared war on the Prussian Government. The war lasted only one year and ended with the destruction of Berlin. Soon after the Battle of Berlin, Blümel declared the Dictatorship of Blümelreich a nation.

### **Germanic Expansion**

From 1913 to 1916 the Empire of Blümelreich expanded from only having territories from Prussia and Switezerland to invading Poland, Austria and Denmark in intense blitzkreig campaigns. Luxembourg officially joined the empire in 1915 when a contract was signed between the Kaiser and the President of Luxembourg.

In early 1916, the german fleets were mobilized to western africa, just below the territories of Espinosa in order to claim colonies for the nation before other nations could claim territories in the continent. The Empire's Midafrika colony was established spanning from the Congo region further inland. During the years that followed, this became the greatest german colony and controlled almost all central Africa.

### **First Northumbrian War**

In mid 1916, the Kaiser declared war on the declining Northumbrian Empire that reigned over the northern coasts of the Baltic. The newly built airships and the navy were mobilized and a mass landing occurred, the cities of Oslo and Stockholm were taken and after a few more battles, the cities were integrated into the Empire. The Northumbrian Emperor declaring an official surrender.

### **Second Northumbrian War**

In 1917, a terrorist attack in the Trial of the Mexican Minister of Defence killed the Supreme Justice of Blümelreich and wounded the Kaiser. After the Northumbrian Empire and the Republic of Constantinia declared war on the Alliance the german armies were mobilized.

Serving primarily in the Helsinki campaign, the blümelreich navy dominated the Baltic while the airfleets were mobilized to capture the Imperial Capital of Helsinki. Other forces were dispatched to aid Espinosa on the London front. Eventually, during the Battle of Helsinki, one of the german airships dropped a Metahulla nuke that destroyed the city and ended the war.

After a treaty was made in Genoa and the Empire acquired the Faroe Islands. A maritime base was built there and projections for the future anexation of Iceland were staged there. A short while after the war, unknown forces drove the Kaiser to suicide and so his son, Wilhelm took the title of Kaiser.

### **Third Northumbrian War**

In 1921, a Northumbrian bomber destroyed many buildings in Guadalajara, Mexico while in Europe a Northumbrian ship sunk a transport ship from Blümelreich. Both nations declared war and so a new war began. Blümelreich recaptured Helsinki and the cities around it while Mexico claimed Narvik and the rest of Northumbria.

A treaty was signed in London, and northumbria is left as a rump state with its capital in Narvik. Mexico claims most of mainland Northumbria while the Empire acquires Helsinki and its surrounding regions. Due to this sudden and unexpected war, a stock crash began that affected the entire world.

### **Operation Conqueror**

After the combined forces of Earth drove off the Qu during the First Battle for Earth most of the german colonies seceded. The Kaiser devised a plan to retake midafrika with a new occupation. Dubbed Operation Conqueror, the damaged german forces were able to retake most of midafrika while facing little to no resistance.

### **The Great Nuclear War**

In 1928, Chimaera (a long time terrorist organization and enemy of blümelreich) took over most of the cities and during this instability on Europe, a nuclear war broke out which ravaged many nations and caused the turmoil to worsen. The Kaiser, having died and having no offspring of his own left the country in charge of Prince Otto who dissolved the nation and with the help of Scientist Herman Sörgel rebuilt the germanic power under the title of Eistropa.
