Alantaria

Alantaria, officially the Republic of Alantaria, is a parliamentary republic located in western Europe, bordered by Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, and Slovenia. Alantaria is nearly landlocked except for the southeastern provinces, near the Italian-Alantarian border. The nation is one of the smaller nations in Europe, both geographically and population wise, and bears a small economy. Currently, Alantaria is led by President Albert Grübaum and Wolaff Kás along side the Legislative Council of Alantaria.

The earliest records of Alantaria was during the Roman Empire, when it was referred to as Krechia in the south and Alantaria in the north. During the collapse of the Roman Empire, Krechia became a sovereign state, while Alantaria was absorbed into several other empires. Krechia was absorbed by the Holy Roman Empire in the 9th century along with Alantaria, who were attached until Krechia's independence in 1632 and Alantaria's independence in 1759. The two countries grew close to each other and soon formed Krechia-Alantaria in 1822 and the later Kingdom of Alantaria in 1839. Alantaria grew to be an empire ruling over portions of Africa and the Americas during the 1800s and 1900s until the rise of Nazi Germany. Germany controlled Alantaria until 1945 when the nation was liberated by the Soviet Union and became the People's Republic of Alantaria. The People's Republic of Alantaria lasted until 1989 when the Eastern Bloc was dissolved, creating the Republic of Alantaria. The new republic remained socialist but adopted democratic principles such as elections and separate political parties.
