### **Basic Information**

Yugoslavia is a nation that was formed on April 6, 2021, the same day as it's capital city, Belgrade by it's current king, AM1104. It's territories include almost *all* of the former-Yugoslavia's real-life borders. It is comprised of 6 main towns inside of it's borders; Belgrade, the Township of Estevan, Zagreb, Slovenia, North Macedonia, and Slovenia. Currently, it holds a loyal following of several active players, and is considered to be a large power of Europe.

#### **Early History**

On the first day of it's creation, Yugoslavia began it's first buildings and expansions. Yugoslavia created and funded a town hall, several townhouses for members, a diplomatic office, and armory. And even secured a few members. 3 days later, on April 9, a sign was left outside of it's borders by Gluestick3000 of Austria (Nation). Offering to connect Belgrade to the inter-European railway system, as well as fund further city building projects. After further cooperation and support between the two nations, they formally entered an alliance with each other, on April 11, an alliance that still stands to this day.

##### **Yugoslav-Bulgarian War**

On April 7, 2021, Bulgarian forces led by Mitko007, entered Yugoslavia's territory on the outskirts of the capital, and began firing upon the members of Belgrade without provocation. Alarmed, Yugoslavia immediately fired back on the attackers, and drew the battle to a stalemate, leading to the withdrawal of Bulgarian troops to Varna, their capital. The skirmish concluded with the deaths of two Belgrade citizens, Wero2021 and Schmalex\_, during the opening stages of the ambush. Following this, on the same day, Yugoslavia quickly retaliated with a small-scale raid on Varna, just to be halted by another ambush in the thick Bulgarian forests. Dozens of small skirmishes rattled the wilderness territory between the two, until the Bulgarians were finally pushed back to their walls on April 9, two days into the conflict. Refusing all terms of surrender, the Yugoslavs opened fire on the outer walls of the city with cannon fire, until a breach was made in the front gate. The Bulgarians held out in their armory bunker, negotiating surrender while simultaneously being fired on by Yugoslav troops. Approximately two hours later, a settlement was reached, where Yugoslavia would take control of Varna, and the Bulgarians would be allowed to have a small settlement named Patriot afterwards. They would also not be allowed to cross a border spanning across real-life Bulgaria vertically unless given express permission. The border's midsection point lies at approximately 17502, 64, 5837, for reference. Following these terms, and the frustration of war reparations and defeat, the Bulgarians slowly stopped logging on, and the nation-less town of Patriot and the colony of Yugoslavian\_Varna only remain as a reminder of their existence. An actual captured flag of Bulgaria, recovered in Varna after the siege, lies in the Belgrade diplomatic offices to this day.

##### **Later Expansions and History**

After an approximately two-month streak of on-and-off activity, Yugoslavia returned to the server in early June 2021, surprisingly intact due to the protection and good will of Gluestick3000, (Then the elected leader of NeuGermany). However, they did lose the colony of Yugoslavian\_Varna to Germany while away. On June 15, 2021, AM1104 received messages from the leader of the Township of Estevan, TheRealDuckLords. A new settlement in modern-day Montenegro and Dalmatia. Quickly realizing the similarities, , and benefits of merging with each other, Estevan joined Yugoslavia the same day, and is now the second largest city in Yugoslavia and host Yugoslavia's merchant fleet and ship-building offices. Following Estevan, rapid expansion began of Yugoslavia's real-life territories, and on June 18, Karlobag was founded by JamesFalkenberg, Zagreb on June 27 by Shyguy188, Slovenia was captured on June 30, and North Macedonia was founded on July 1 by Fatboi69\_420. Following the connection of land borders with all of these towns, a road system and highway project was then approved, and stands as a monorail to this day.

##### **The World War**

Following rapidly deteriorating relations between the Empire of Japan and the rest of the world, especially the alliance of Yugoslavia, NeuGermany and Greenland, Neugermany declared war on Japan on April 20, 2021. Immediately following the declaration of war, Yugoslavia offered to help NeuGermany directly in it's efforts. Yugoslavia was tasked with assaulting and capturing the Indian port city of Calcutta, then Japanese territory. Following initial success sieging the town, it was quickly bogged down by logistical issues, lost and destroyed equipment, and a lack of flying capability. The joint forces of NeuGermany and Yugoslavia repeatedly defended, retook ad nauseum for hours, until Deandave, the Emperor of Germany, called off the war. No longer supported by German forces, and lacking viable equipment, Yugoslavia desperately tried to retake Calcutta in one final assault with volunteer infantry from Athens, which suffered heavy losses. The hopelessness of the situation was then realized. Yugoslavia formally surrendered to Japan the same day and was allowed to keep its territory but had to call off the attack on Calcutta and pay reparations. Following the German Civil War and the ensuing minor conflicts, Yugoslavia openly showed its support for the German Rebellion, however, did not directly involve itself in the conflict. It did however, develop a close relationship with Athens and its prominent figures during the fighting. A siege from Italia was made on Belgrade the next day, but was abandoned by the attackers immediately following D1amant\_'s ban for cheating offenses.

##### Austro-Italian War

Due to pre-existing tensions between Italy and Catia against the "Austrian Alliance" (Yugoslavia, Osterreich and the Enclave) war was declared on July 3rd. Immediately following the Austrian siege on Blodflode, Yugoslavian troops and volunteers from Athens (Fishman, Aff, Logan and Siren) coordinated a naval strike to distract the Italian efforts on the South-Eastern corner of Italy's mainland. The force was subsequently halted by Italian air troops, utilizing respawn anchors, and lost a destroyer and several pieces of armor in the fighting. Retaliating for this attack, Italy sieged Athens six days later, on July 10th. Yugoslavia immediately diverted troops to help defend Athens, and after several hours of fighting over a key few plots of ocean, emerged victorious alongside the Athens garrison. Italy shortly surrendered, and Cheese (The leader of the Enclave) was promised control of Italian lands. However, following this success, there was still the issue regarding Italy's ally, Catia, who had not surrendered after Italy's defeat. Crossing the Atlantic and landing in the Caribbean islands alongside Austrian, Enclave and Athens troops, the alliance faced heavy resistance against Engy, who relied on Guerilla tactics and his grenade launcher to divide and ambush the landing force. Often hiding in the trees and foliage. The alliance then responded by burning down a majority of the islands forests, to remove this advantage from him. After about 30 minutes of continuing skirmishes, Engy gave up, and the siege was won by alliance troops. Bringing an end to the war after about a week of fighting. Yugoslavia no longer had to neighbor a hostile Italy, and gained an Ally, Cheese's Italy, as a reward.

##### **Relations**

Yugoslavia prefers to remain neutral in most engagements, however due to it's very close relations with Austria (Nation) , Cheese's Italia and Athens (Austria), it will not hesitate to support them in wars and provide valuable active manpower.
