[quote=Pepperm1nts] I was thinking something reminiscent of Austria (with a super traditional and, perhaps flawed, militant monarchy/nobility at its head). Playing Austria in a few other roleplays has made me appreciate and respect Austria, so I figured I could play something similar here. [/quote] My nation, the Great Westhurst Union, is heavily Germanic in inspiration, and since I herald from Germany, I simply wished to play my own nation with a few spins on the things to make it interesting. Skeptic, you forgot to mention that all your over-extension are belong to us.
