British Maryland

## General Info

British Maryland was a country in the Mid-Atlantic United States. It was a colony of The British Empire under the late King Manga II. It was founded on the 17th of April, 2021 when season 7 started but had been an idea since the 30th of March, 2021. It was a part of the North American Allience (NAA), United Nations Geographica (UNG), British America (BA), and the British Empire (TBE). It ended on the 7th of August, 2021, when the season ended.

## Founding

On the 30th of March, 2021, PigIA3 who back then was of Utah decided they wanted to join the British after their friend CapCreeperGR joined as British Byzantium. They originally wanted to name it the "Thirteen Colonies", thinking they could take the entire United States East Coast. When it started however, they were unable to take everything and got about a third of what they hoped for. The founding members were PigIA3, Who\_Is\_On\_First aka Bob, and MinesoccerHD aka Soap. Later on, Gr8Nate, steeldeadeye, Froggy539, and a few others joined. \*There is also 13anna13, Icy, and 383db who promised to join, but never actually joined.

## Diplomacy

At first, British Maryland was not trusting of any of their neighbors, but after a while they had grown close to The Moon, North Carolina, and later, Nieuw Nederland. PigIA was specifically close to Jbones, Rattabak, and Nato. All the allying nations soon made the North Eastern Alliance (NEA) (later changed to North American Alliance). After this, though, two blows came to British Maryland's diplomacy. The first was a war with Bosnia and the HRE over when PigIA insulted Bosnia, throwing a Bosnian flag into a cactus. The war was declared when PigIA was busy and unprepared and Bosnia took an easy victory, and Maryland had to pay reparations. Another blow came when Maryland was caught up in The Moon Conflict, where Jbones, Maryland's closest friend, left The Moon due to him believing that The Moon did not put their citizens first. Jbones tried to get Maryland and Nieuw Nederland to CB The Moon due to a message sent by LeandroGames13 saying "What do you guys think about a war vs. nieuw nederland to have more land and expand". PigIA and Rattabak at first agreed to fight but then backed down saying they are aggressors. Maryland then decided to resume relations with The Moon and cut off relations with Central USA, Jbones' break away faction. Maryland's allies were The Moon, Nieuw Nederland, North Carolina, as well as the rest of the British Empire, with their closest British allies being British Canada, British Byzantium, British Guiana, and British Arizona.

## Later in the season and disbanding

s7 was the first season to last longer than necessary. However, British Maryland was disbanded naturally when the season ended on August 7th, 2021. In s8, after British Caribbean was disbanded, PigIA created British Maryland 2. This lasted from January 16th, 2022-March 19th, 2022, when s8 ended.
