The Federal Republic States of New Wolvers, also known as New Wolvers, is a sovereign state, co-founder of the Universal Pact, and member of the Strategic and Economic Treaty Alliance in North Utopia. The nation is divided in four states, one Autonomous Republic, and one Capital District. It is known to be the first country in the North Utopian continent to grant AI citizenship to a robot in 1991, along with granting equal rights to all its citizens. The nation is known to have community of werewolves in rural sides of the nation, even if is not too uncommon to see those so-called urban werewolves, werewolves who live in the city side of the country and are organized in packs or gangs. Those werewolves may happen to be part of various Werewolf Nations which, legally, are mere representatives of the various tribes and packs of werewolves, but all of them are distinct in language, dialect, beliefs, and even currencies. Nonetheless, those Nations are recognized only inside the Federal Republic States, and do serve only for statistic and representative purposes in the long scheme of events.
Etymology
The name New Wolvers comes from the original name of the colony, Nova Vlkania, name given by the settlers of the Twelve Settlements to the newly discovered territory that, nowadays comprises the state of New Wolvers and the state of New Veronika. The standard way to call a citizen of New Wolvers is Neo Wolverian, even though other denonyms as Farkasian, Neovlkanian and Wolveri are perfectly acceptable. The current name, the "Federal Republic States of New Wolvers", was adopted following the annexation of Killingfer island to the nation.
History
Pre-Colonization
The territories that do cNew Wolvers was first settled but abandoned in the 1st century AD by tribes associated with the now extinct Thilicina tribe of the Killingferi natives. The splinter tribe would sail the Hale Sea to go east and settle the villages of Lmaxsalobanas, Ilambnax and Xlet, only for the villages to be abandoned fifty years later due to an unknown cause. For around 500 years onwards, various other tribes attempted to settle, only to abandon afterwards.
Discovery and Colonization
The discovery dates around 1535, where venetian explorers described sightings of a that currently describes the Champion Bay, with green pastures and no settlements saved for a few abandoned houses. First explorations were deemed useless, but journals described the land and the bay water as "Ideal to settle down during a heavy storm". In 1548, Karel the Landlocked, the king of the Kingdom of Vlkania, sent explorers Artur Barta and Colombo De Felici to the described bay in order to estabilish a new oversea territory of the kingdom, as treaties with the surrounding Holy Roman Empire didn't allowed for an expansion in the European continent without consequences. In 1549, after the death of Karel the Landlocked and the rising in power of Charles VII of Aktemburg, the two explorers sailed the sea starting from the leased territory of Rab with five different ships, all packed with british, scottish, bohemian, and italian explorers and shipworkers in order to attempt to settle down in the newly discovered land of the Champion Bay. Upon arrival 67 days later, the docking of the five ships became a very difficult task, as a thunderstorm caused by an hurricane risked to strike the explorers on theri way to the bay, but in the end, they managed to dock, even though one of the five ships was heavily damaged and was left to rot in the Champion Beach. Upon arrival, the two explorers settled thirteen different camps for the unfortunate people of the Veneta and for whoever wanted to stay in the newly discovered land, hence starting the colonization of the abandoned land. Three years after the colonization started, and the recognition of the Thirteen colonies as the oversea territories of Nova Vlkania, king Charles VII stated that only one of the two explorers, before then co-governors, could take charge of the newly formed oversea territory, as the king could not afford to pay two governors for at least ten years.
Civil War and Exile of De Felici
Colombo De Felici and Artur Barta, upon returning to the oversea territory, went to a physical fight in order to take over control of the colony, which would escalate in a full-on civil war between the supporters of Artur Barta and the supporters of Colombo De Felici, ending with the victory of Artur Barta as the governor of the oversea territory six days later. After the civil war ended, Colombo de Felici was exiled by Artur Barta, being accused of mutiny and treason after finding a journal documenting plans by De Felici himself to become an independent kingdom. Following the exile of Colombo De Felici, most of the people who supported him to become a governor followed him, and estabilished far northeast, founding the Italic Republic of Iugone as a result three years later, settling in the whereabouts of Mount Celauria initially to then settle in the Leonardian plains, creating the settlement of San Leonardo.
After the civil war
After the civil war and the appointment of Artur Barta by the people of the thirteen colonies, he managed to gather explorers who accompanied him to discover more of the land, organizing it into an expedition group, to then create more and more settlement in the territory that comprises the State of New Wolvers. Various ethnic groups arrived in the oversea territory of Nova Vlkania in the following years, developing an economy based on agriculture and cloth exporting, as well as an economy based on hunting and breeding cattle for food.
Dissolution of the Oversea Territory and Establishment of the Kingdom of Nova Vlkania
In 1649, upon being discontent of the politics of the mainland kingdom by imposing a tax on Neovlkanian pelts and fur, as well as imposing taxes on the ownership of a house and no help given following a famine in the territory, the inhabitants of Nova Vlkania had enough, and an anti-mainland sentiment grew further and further, even supported by relatives of the governing king of the time, Jakub I of Vlkania, in order to either be given more representation in the kingdom, or be given freedom to be their own country. The movement kept growing month after month until January 6th, 1651, when news broke that the Kingdom of Vlkania ceased to exist and became an incorporated territory of the Holy Roman Empire.
