The United Provinces and Territories of The Furbish Islands(UPTFI or U.P.T.F.I.), commonly known as The Furbish Islands(FI or F.I.) the United Provinces and Territories(UPT or U.P.T.), or the United Provinces(UP or U.P.), is a country consisting of 103 provinces in 5 regions and 22 federal districts, stretching over XX islands. The country is located entirely on the Furbish Islands in the central Pacific Ocean. At nearly 4.5 million square kilometers, it is the largest state in the Pacific Ocean. The closest nation is XX, which is XX kilometers away.

Polynesians first settled The Furbish Islands around 800 AD, and by Europeans beginning in the late 16th century.

Pre-Loaísan era

The first human settlement of The Furbish Islands occurred circa 800.

Colonization

Independence and civil war

Main articles: Furbish revolution, Furbish first republic, and Furbish civil war

A series of factors led to pro-independence protests in 1805. They were violently suppressed by colonial authorities, which only caused protests to turn into riots. On 31 January, rioters lead by the Bolsrade Six stormed the colonial garrison and governor's mansion and established the Nieuw Maasland Free State. Seven more coups took place other parts of the islands, while revolutionaries attacked surrounding areas. After defeating colonial forces in Boston, Martijn van Riemsdijk called delegates from the islands to the Boston Convention, where the first republic formally established on 17 August. A temporary constitution was written, to be replaced by a more permanent one. A colonial invasion force was defeated in late 1805, marking the end of the Furbish revolution.

Different Furbish populations were unable to agree on a new constitution. Tensions grew, leading to the Furbish civil war between different language groups and some groups that wished to return to colonial role. English speaking forces under John Dodson defeated colonial forces and other Furbish armies, but was unable to secure a major victory against the latter, leading to the Boston peace conference in 1815. A new constitution was drafted with terms dictated by Dodson, establishing the second republic. He became the first stadtholder.

Second republic and Time of Troubles

Main articles: Furbish second republic, Interior wars, and Time of Troubles

The new government was designed to be dominated by the English-speaking majority, but gave autonomy to Dutch, French, Portuguese, and Spanish minorities with new provinces and regions. No autonomy was given to indigenous populations. Dodson attempted to secure power for himself, but he was ousted in 1820 after serving a single term. The governments of Dodson and his successors worked to introduce the industrial revolution to The Furbish Islands. Laissez-faire policies were established to make the Furbish economy competitive on the world stage, which increased the power of the upper classes. Despite discrimination faced, economic opportunities in new factories and several gold rushes attracted immigrants from all over the world.

Dodson's government also encouraged Furbish settlement in the interior, which brought them into conflicts with the indigenous population, known as the interior wars. They lasted up to the end of the 19th century. The Furbish committed numerous atrocities during the conflicts. In 1869, Stadtholder Milton Carnell launched a punitive expedition into Hrvada. The federal government saw democratic backsliding through the 19th century, which increased significantly as power switched four times between the Whig Party under Milton Carnell and National Republican Party under Dominic Drumpf from 1864 to 1873.

In 1873, rampant inflation, corruption, discrimination, democratic backsliding, and a violent suppression of a northern railroad worker strike led to the Burger rebellion. The government under Stadtholder Dominic Drumpf did not contain the rebellion. They established concentration camps in the north. The desertion of a Gendarmerie company led by Captain Jean de Flandre on 23 June began a period known as the Time of Troubles. Fourteen successive stadtholders were overthrown, beginning with Drumpf on 29 July. The Time of Troubles ended when Jozef van Biddinghuizen took power in 15 February 1875 and gained popular support by promising to restore order. Van Biddinghuizen wrote a new constitution, with input from delegates from all over The Furbish Islands. It was ratified by the provinces on 17 August 1875. All forms of discrimination and slavery were outlawed.

Van Biddinghuizen ruled for five more years, where passed more reforms, including cracking down on corruption and discrimination, limiting the power of the upper classes, and creating an early welfare state.
