The Federal Republic of New Aspen, commonly referred to simply as New Aspen, is a land-locekd nation located in the northern hemisphere of the Eurth. Due to New Aspen entering the international comunity only recently, it's borders remain somewhat unclear, and several diplomats at the World Congress are currently working on drafting a new map for the country.
New Aspen is a federal republic, consisting of 8 federated states, organised as a representative parliamentary democracy. Citizens elect their represesntatives to the bicameral Aspenian Parliament. The head of state is the directly elected Federal Chancellor, while the head of government is the Prime Minister, chosen by the parliament. The Federal government is fairly large, regulating many aspects of the nation's market economy.
Formerly known as the Kingdom of Aspenia, New Aspen has suffered trough a bloody internal conflict, which nearly destroyed the nation. While the civilian population was mostly spared, the governmental structure suffered a heavy blow. While the new nation has a fairly large population, it struggles to pull itself out of economic recession and therefore has a relatively low GDP. The new Federal government is facing high internal tensions, growing unemployment and a poor economic outlook.
History
While archaeological records suggest, that the territory of present-day New Aspen has been indabited by various tribes in the Prehistoric and Ancient eras, the first organised societies began forming only as late as the early Medieval era. Various settlers arrived around the 6th century, bringing with them the technological advancements of the era, and began founding their own noble clans and princely states, either trough subjugation or integration of the existing population. The origins of the Aspenian language can also be traced back to around this time. Belonging to the Balto-Slavic language family, it is theorised that Aspenian developed trough the collision of various Alemanic languages brought in by the settlers and the dialects spoken by the original inhabitants.
The Kingdom of Aspenia has existed for several centuries, originally a union of several disparate noble clans, later a unitary state headed by the Perenian royal family. The monarchs have ruled with an iron fist, while the populace toiled in the fields and mines. Unbeknownst to the royals however, far in the south of the nation, a resistance was growing. Emanuel Carthaus was the leader of the resistance and trough his charm and wit managed to convince many peasants to join him. He even planted spies in the royal army! It was only a matter of time before the resistance reached a critical mass. Carthaus and his followers branded the ruling monarch Klaus Perenian IV. an illegitimate ruler and unilaterally established the Aspenian Polity as a new state. A bloody civil war ensued, with the loyalists to the north and the resistance to the south. Many died in the war including both Carthaus and Klaus IV. and after the dust settled the peasants found themselves without a ruler, as both factions have effectively eaten each other alive. After a brief period of anarchy, most of the nation was reduced to various city-states or polities. However, many of the people recognised the value in being united under one flag and thus, determined to do it right this time, each group has sent forth a representative to negotiate with the others. This was the pivotal step in the creation of New Aspen, a Federal Parliamentary Representative Republic, now a small and progressive democratic state.
