Colonial Era

Modern Era

Pavonistade supported the United Kingdom and the Allied Powers during the First World War. The country was subject to the impacts of the Spanish Flu and the Great Depression. In the Second World War, Pavonistade sided with Allied countries and declared war on the Axis countries. The war occurred in the midst of the Pavonistadian Industrial Revolution, and the country played a recognizable economic and military role in the Allied war effort.

After the Second World War, Pavonistade helped found the United Nations and engaged in international conflicts such as the Korean War. Pavonistade sided with the United States during the Cold War and became a member of NATO. While the Pavonistadian government is divided over the amount of support appropriate for the United States, Pavonistade experienced several cultural shifts such as the counterculture of the 1960's.

After the end of the Cold War, Pavonistade remained a prominent ally of the United States and European powers. It has maintained a cautious presence in conflicts such as the War on Terror and insurgencies in West African countries. Despite an semi-interventionist foreign policy, Pavonistade has engaged both in peacekeeping operations and in offensive operations (e.g. intervention against ISIL).

Pavonistade is labelled as an emerging power with influence in the regional and, to an extent, international stage. Climate change, environmental degradation, economic disparities, changing social demographics (e.g. age) and continued cultural shifts are some of the issues currently faced by Pavonistadians.
