It was an Administrative District (Province) of Zamastan, having been annexed from Drambenburg by Zamastan in 1954 at the conclusion of the World War. It was a province of Zamastan until 2020, when the Bettencourt Protests spurred the provincial government's move to secession. It became an independent nation on January 1st, 2021, but is still a dependency of Zamastan. It has a population of 18.57 million people, most of whom share Drambenburgian or Lutharian ancestry.
