History

The Thrismari Union, or the TU, started on the 12th February 2021 when Lyonheimer and Blechingia came up with the idea of the union. They announced the union that day, and people from respective nations were excited and filled with patriotism. The nations came up with main ideals, being free-travel, good trade deals and prosperity for Thrismari. The next member to join the union was Amrelia on the 14th February 2021, who joined when the invitation telegram reached them. The next day, the 15th, three nations joined the union, being Foxomexra, Fallooplesburg and Nicersdah, however they are only an affiliated state as they are not a Thrismari nation. At this point, the first ever Thrismari Union Summit was scheduled for the 20th of February, which would be a meeting that would finalize the terms and conditions of the union. On the 19th, South Eisennau, Toubaze and, as an affiliated state for now, Gassasinia. Next, on the 20th, day of the summit, Sarussia, Qui Latine and Tytherial all joined the union.

The First Thrismari Union Summit

The first Thrismari union was attended by all members, however spoken mostly by Foxomexra, Lyonheimer, Blechingia and Fallooplesburg. Here is the summary of the terms of the union:

Affiliated States negotiate independent deals with the union according to their desired level of engagement with the union.
