The Armed Republic of Birnir, or Birnir is a republic in the Coalition of Crown Albatross, bordered to the north by Gugrait, Cechena, and Constantio, as well as a maritime border with Cadair to the south, with the two only separated by the Yn Syth. Birnir and Cadair have been in a state of armed conflict since 2016, known as the Konkurso Conflict. The conflict has gone to the diplomatic tables on several occasions, with Zamastan delegating, but neither side has been able to agree to terms on the treaty. The talks have broken down each time, with violence following each time.
History
In 1920, just after World War 1, a group of Icelandic scientists discovered a large mountainous land full of Sun Bears. These weren't average bears however, they were more advanced than any species of bear known to date. They were often seen living in groups, standing on they're hind legs most of the time, and even using basic tools such as using rocks to crush and break thing open, large pieces of bark to dig, and even simple snares traps to catch food. In 1921 the head of research, Asvaldur Kiddason decided to open a new project: making the bears intelligent. With the help of a newly developed, and shortly discontinued learning enhancement drug called Heptachocchirhyglene, or Bobryde they taught Funi how to read, write, and even speak. In 1936 the country they were found in gained it's sovereignty in a peaceful agreement between it and Iceland. The new country was named Asvaldur, in honor of the late founder and head of the team that educated the Asogedslegt, and set up as a democracy with Vagn Lesson, another team member, as it's first president.
