The process is believed to have started with the Weranian Revolution of 1828 although has its roots in the 1785 revolution that had led to the dissolution of the [[Rudolphine Confederation]] and the creation of the [[Weranian Republic]]. Inspired by a mixture of notions including {{Wp|nationalism}}, {{wp|historical revisionism}}, {{wp|republicanism}}, {{wp|liberalism}}, {{wp|secularism}} and {{wp|democracy}} the impetus for Weranian unification following the republic's dissolution led to the start of the "Weranic Question" of whether a state for the Weranian people should emerge, if it should be a {{Wp|republic}} or {{wp|monarchy}} and if it only consist of {{wp|High German|Weranian}} speaking lands or be enlarged to those who spoke common Weranic languages. During the early 19th century these questions led to an outpouring of nationalist activity in the Weranic states notably through the revolutionary secret society, the Septemberists. By 1829 republican nationalists united with monarchists in the Kingdom of [[Cislania]] to jointly promote the cause of unification. Gaining the support of [[Estmere]] these liberal nationalists began to see [[Kirenia]] as the biggest obstacle to unification. From 1836 starting with the Septemberist Revolt in Bonnlitz-Ostbrücken to the 1841-42 Weranian War of Unification the pace of unification under the Cislanian banner rapidly increased with the Weranian Confederation being declared following the victory of Cislanian forces in 1842. The state further expanded with the [[Easter Revolution]] in the eastern Weranian states. The final act of Weranian unification was the [[War of the Triple Alliance]] fought between Werania and [[Estmere]] against Kirenia, [[Gaullica]] and [[Soravia]]. Although the war had intended to unite the rest of the Weranic lands in Kirenia - considered to be the entirely Weranic speaking east marches and partially Weranian speaking Ruttland - into Werania, it failed to do so with Werania acquiring Ruttland alone. However the war did result in the survival of a unified Weranian nation confirming its presence permanently in [[Euclea]]. Weranian unification is considered to have changed the {{wp|balance of power}} in [[Euclea]]. It represented a decline in Kirenia and [[Solstiana]] whilst the creation of a unified Werania introduced a new {{Wp|great power}} on the continent that would compete with Gaullica, Soravia, Estmere and [[Etruria]] for influence.

The East Line (Brumenese: Ostlinie, Lush: Keleti Vonal), commonly referred to as the Dinsmark - Alexandropolis Corridor, is a high-speed rail (HSR) line in East Belisaria that is part of the continent's larger interconnected HSR network. It is served by the Comet, a HSR service owned by the Continental Comet Consortium (C3), a consortium established by various railway corporations from Brumen and Drevstran. The East Line begins its service at Südbahnhof in Dinsmark the capital city of Brumen, which also serves as its terminus & depot. It terminates in the city of Alexandropolis, the capital of Mesogeia. There are two types of services: the slower Astro line which stops at all stations along the corridor, and the faster Sage line which only stops at certain stations. The Astro line is serviced by Blitz 2 NG trainsets, with a service speed of 220km/h it is the slowest of all Comet service lines. Sage lines are serviced by Blitz 4 trainsets, with a service speed of 380km/h making it the fastest HSR service provided by the Comet. Talks of a HSR network between the two neighboring countries began since 1991 when both governments signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) which laid the groundwork for a fully integrated HSR network between Brumen and Drevstran. The Dinsmark - Angrast Corridor, now considered as Phase 1 of the project, commenced operation in 11 May 1994. Since then it has expanded its coverage to include Beredino in 2005 and Alexandropolis in 2006.
