Ispirian Federation

## Flag

The **Ispirian Federation,** (Ukranian: Іспірян Федерація) also known as the Federation of Ispirium,is a sovereign state located in Eastern Europe. It is bordered by the Russia and Poland to the north, Russia to the east, the Mediterranian Sea, Black sea, and Sea of Azov to the south, and France, Switzerland and Karoria to the west. It held the worlds 3rd highest GDP and is the largest nation in Europe.

The territory of modern Ispirium has been inhabited since 32,000 BC. During the Middle Ages, the area was a key centre of East Slavic culture, with the powerful state of Kievan Rus' forming the basis of Ukrainian & Ispirian identity. During the 13th century, the territory was contested, ruled and divided by a variety of powers, including Lithuania, Poland, the Ottoman Empire, Austria-Hungary, and Russia. During the 17th century, the Ispirian Empire was formed, under the ruling of the Reschal family.

Two brief periods of independence occurred during the 20th century, once near the end of World War I and another during World War II. However, both occasions would ultimately see Ispirium's territories consolidated into a Soviet republic, a situation that persisted until 1947, when Ispirium gained its independence from the Soviet Union in the aftermath of a referendum which lead to the countries of Ispirium, Ukraine, Moldova, and Romania breaking from the Soviet Union and forming the Ispirian Federation. Soon following this, the countries of Yugoslavia, Albania, and Greece were admitted into the Federation, and after a small war, the country of Bulgaria was also admitted.

Its territory expanded first in the 1970s, when Italy was invaded and admitted into the Federation.

Another massive land expansion happened in 2051, when a large scale war between Ispirium and the United European Federation lead to the dissolution of the UEF, and admission of Germany, Denmark, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, and Belarus into the Federation.
