Hollish Republic (Pax Hollandia)

The **Hollish Republic** (Dutch: Holse Republiek German: Holländische Republik Danish: Hollandsk Republik French: République de Hollande Spanish & Portuguese: República Hollish Italian: Repubblica Olandese Czech: Republika Holandsko Polish: Republika Holenderska) Is a multinational country consisting the entirety of Western Europe with large portions of Central Europe and with small sections of South-east Europe and Eastern Europe. The Hollish Republic was originally named the Hollish Empire which was an absolute Monarchy state, which managed to rapidly expand it's territory from the early 13th century until the 19th century, however some smaller territory expansions in the 20th century occurred as a result primarily by the aftermath of the First and Second World Wars. The Hollish Empire was eventually condemned and acted as an outcast state as a result of the Holy Roman Empire's principalities and states being aggressively incorporated into the wider Holland. The Hollish Empire fought in key wars involving France, Prussia, Denmark, Spain and other Great Powers between the 13th and 15th centuries, decades of expansion eventually concluded with the Hollish Empire dominating European affairs and and being proclaimed as the world's first Superpower state. With the Holy Roman Empire decaying, the House of Nassau took crown and ownership of the Holy Roman Empire and maintained it as a form of influence across Europe and the Catholic Church. Paving the way for the Hollish Empire to incorporate Italian and Iberian lands which were increasingly independent and disobedient to Holland's demands and disturbing the sphere of influence via trading and improving relations with competitor sublime states like the Ottoman Empire and Muscovy. After successful campaigns against the remaining states in Western Europe, the Hollish Empire consolidated power and began large scale Dutchification of minorities and began to initiate reforms of the sociopolitical and socioeconomic systems of the old Feudal system, afterwards the rest of Europe followed suit.

Eventually the Hollish Empire began to gradually expand it's interest elsewhere, founding the new world and being significant in leading the rest of the world with new inventions such as being the head of biological, chemical, industrial, economic, political, social, astronomical and mapping science, being ahead of the majority of Europe and the rest of the world by a large scale, it is considered to be 30 years ahead of the rest of the world during it's scientific peak. As a result in finding the new world alongside leading the Catholic and Protestant churches. The Hollish Republic began to found new colonies in North America, Africa, South America and Oceania. It projected it's power mostly through means of trade and militaristic supremacy. This led the Hollish Empire to have large amounts of economic growth to sustain it's vast Empire across the seas and to control stability within the mainland portion in Western Europe.

In the year 1784, the Hollish Empire had a constitutional revolution nearly erupting in a full blown civil war between Republicans and Monarchists across the Hollish Empire and the ultimate dissolution of the mega Dutch state. But the House of Orange decided to cede some of it's political powers towards the people of the nation and establishing a Federal Bipartisan government system to please both Monarchist, Republicans and Liberals. But the minorities of the nation which remained pure from the policy of Dutchification decided that most of the national elections were unfair and remained unpopular amongst the ethnic minority votes throughout the Hollish Republic's contemporary history, the Hollish government knew that more power needed to be shared with the ethnic and religious minorities of the nation, mostly throughout the 19th century the Hollish Republic began to radicalise more inventions along with leading the world's global economy and being the most powerful state. More rights and freedoms were granted to the minorities in the nation and having their own autonomous Republics within the wider Hollish Republic. Women were given the right to vote in national and regional level elections in 1847 and many regional languages and religions were recognised within the vast territory consisting of the Hollish mainland, engaging in secular and multicultural values, with some extent towards it's outer colonies as well. The Hollish Republic also knew that keeping colonies would inflict financial and political decline the longer they are held firmly by the Hollish Republic, eager to still have external territory, the Hollish Republic soon began widespread reforms to administration and engaged in the practice of decentralisation of political powers and releasing colonies in the late 1800s to have their own governments as Dominion nation states.
