Beatavic (Beatavician: Prachtige Kust), officially the Republic of Beatavic (Beatavician: De Republiek van Mooie Kust), is a nation located in Nortua bordering Albanovi to the east, Birnir and Acdia to the south, Artaska, Cechena and Constantio to the north and the North Samson Ocean to the west. It consists of (TBA) provinces, and is ruled by Prime Minister Marlijn Zallandt. The federal capital is Gran Telea however, the status of capital city has been temporarily moved to Amstelvoort due to the 2021 Beatavic Tsunami and Earthquake.
Etymology
The origin of the name of Beatavic comes from the word Beatóvïc used by tribes in what is now Beatavic to describe the area they settled in. The meaning remains disputed however most sources claim it means Temperate Mountainside
History (IGNORE)
Prehistoric
The oldest traces of human life in what is now Beatavic date from approximately 800,000 years ago. For over 2000 years, the inhabitants were confronted with harsh weather conditions as inhabitants settled in what is now northern Neskauhólmur along with living a Nomadic hunter-gatherer life.
Areas of Beatavic independent of Outas control were referred to as Magna Beatavici. Modern scholars sometimes refer to the Magna Beatavici as Free Beatavic or Beatavic Barbaricum. As parts of Outas social engineering efforts, large numbers of Beatavicians were settled within Outas territory in order to prevent revolts by resident tribes.
Empire of Beatavic
The Kingdoms of Acdian and Artaskan tribes held varying degrees of control over the Beatavician expanse from 500-982 AD, with constant warfares plaguing the region. In 1012, Florentijn Stuiverman began his conquest of The Kingdom of Artaska and established the Beatavician empire. After conquering southern Artaska and northern Acdia, Florentijn Stuiverman would conquer Acdia and slaughtered the populous, approximately 1/5 of Acdia's population were killed in what is known as the Great Acdia Slaughter.
In 1102, Korneel Fijnewever conquered the Kingdom of Birnir, but was pushed back in 583.
Post-Discovery 16th century (PLEASE IGNORE, THIS PAGE IS UNDERGOING REVISION)
Shortly after establishing a government, laws and a permanent capital city, Nije-Twilhaar Hengelaar, a former merchant would win the 1534 Beatavic prime ministeral election in a landslide. In 1563 while Prime Minister Naud Essen was riding his horse he would be fatally shot and killed, this would be marked as the first assasination of a Beatavician prime minister. In 1593 monarchists would attempt a Coup D'état which would fail. 2 were killed and 5 were injured.
Civil War of 1604
In March 1604, following the 1593 Gran Telea Coup D'état, a civil war would break out between the Government and Monarchists. The Monarchists would push as far as Amstelvoort and South Gran Telea. In June 1604 Monarchist forces would push into Gran Telea, targeting the Prime Minister's house but 10 minutes later government forces showed up and both sides would fight fiercely, known as the The Battle of Gran Telea which would be one of the bloodiest battles in Beatavician history. The government forces would be victorious and would push the monarchists into Antringen, a settlement south of Amstelvoort. When pushed into Antringen the monarchists surrender, bringing an end to the civil war which killed 4,000, injured 5,000 and 400 went missing, which 235 out of the 400 have been found. The war also cost approximately 60,000 Beatavician marks in damage, or 100,000 marks as of 2020.
Post Civil War
In 1605 6 people would be tried for treason, all of them being affiliated with the monarchist movement. Those 6 people included the leader, 3 commanders and 2 soldiers. The leader was sentenced to decapitation of the head, the 2 commanders were sentenced to life in prison and the 2 soldiers were sentenced to 10 years in prison. The judge could have given the two life in prison but acknowledging that they were forced, the judge sentenced them to 10 years however they served 6 years. The war also caused major damage which put Beatavic into a recession that lasted for 7 months.
