'''Bushwood''' is the largest city in the [[Federal Union of Wegmat]]. It is iconic for [[Wegmat Intermicronational Stadium]], performances and art. Bushwood is the most quickly growing city in Wegmat. The City hosts the Headquarters of multiple companies along with production plants, [[Bushwood Trade Market]] and the [[Wilcox Store]].<br />
<br />
Bushwood was the first City in Wegmat to allow people who do not live in the city a certificate of residency. This made Bushwood an important Weg city for humans. Bushwood is named after the now abandoned Bushwood Golf Practice center which makes up the majority of the city. The Province of [[Madison]] was dissolved after the [[Battle of the Highlands]], however, Bushwood and its suburbs remain in Wegmat becoming a single entity made up of boroughs and neighborhoods. The city shares the same status as [[Two Pine]] as a federal district.<br />
<br />
==History== <br />
On the [[Weg Expeditions#Atenheim Expedition|Altenheim Expedition]], before the [[Altenheimer Incident]], Downtown Bushwood was explored. From April to June Wegs traveled to the area for recreational activities. The grater building that makes up the majority of Downtown was opened in May 2021. The building was in pristine condition until the first introduction of vandalism soon later. All windows were smashed however the rest of the structure of in okay condition. The building would later be cleaned up in September 2021.<br />
<br />
In peace efforts during the [[Great Des Plaines Valley War]], Weg officials gave the land to the Sakaki clan. The now-defunct [[United Labour Front]] traveled from their headquarters in southern Levare to the building of Bushwood where they took defense. The Sakaki Clan could not control the building. The rest of the Bushwood was not developed and was easy to claim. On 2 July 2021 legislation was proposed to [[Wegmat Parliament]] to annex the area as the Bushwood Territory. On 5 July 2021, an annexation squad of Wegmat Marines was sent into Bushwood to claim it. The Ministry of Agriculture formed [[Wegmat Intermicronational Stadium]]. The first event to be held there was the Bushwood Open however it was infamously postponed until the idea was no longer brought up. The day after the Great Des Plaines Valley War ended the Province of [[Madison]] was established. The Bushwood territory was dissolved and the City of Bushwood became the entity that was the Bushwood Territory. <br />
<br />
Bushwood experienced the normal amount of growth of a Weg city. On 26 September 2021, the first event was held in the stadium was the IFHL Cup where [[Bobbygrad]] won against [[Isadora]]. The same day the jungle of Madison was explored. Bushwoods Borough system was established on 15 October along with the [[Wegmat Metro Systems#Bushwood|BCAMPT]] system was established. The population of Bushwood was 8. On 23 October, Bushwood overtook [[Paradise City]] as the most populous city in Wegmat. This happened after an influx of humans claimed a certificate of residency in the city. The population reached 16 on 12 November 2021. On 22 November, pro-Kapresh terrorists set off firecrackers in the Madison Capitol Building. This caused a response for the [[Wegmat Authority]] which arrived with a BB gun and fire extinguisher. This was the first event of the [[Weg Nationwide Attacks]]. The terrorist was later apprehended in [[Lost Lake City]] by the [[Wegmat Special Police and Investigation]]. <br />
<br />
Wegmat would declare war on Kareburg on 30 November 2021. This action was seen as a bluff until the opening invasion of the [[Midlothian War]] on 2 January 2022. Kapreburg and Weimar would respond in an invasion of Madison. Bushwood was evacuated mere minutes before a battle occurred in the Downtown borough of Bushwood. The [[Battle of Bushwood]] resulted in a Weg loss of Essef and the rest of Madison excluding Bushwood.<br />
<br />
The Province of Madison would be dissolved and the land handed over to Weimar. Wegmat would keep Bushwood in the deal. The Federal District of Bushwood was established as the governing body of Bushwood and its suburbs. Bushwood will hold the first annual Sled-fest to relax Weg citizens from the war. on January 29, 2022 citizens across the country can sled from the top of [[Bushwood Peak]], through the stadium, and into the Bushwood Trade Market.<br />
<br />

The '''Free Nakoosa Republic''', commonly known as '''Nakoosa''', is a [[micronation]] that was founded on July 18, 2021, as the '''Free Philmont Republic'''. The country is situated on [[w:Lake Castle Rock|Lake Caste Rock]] in the [[w:US state|state]] of [[w:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]], [[w:United States|United States]], and is a [[w:uncameral legislator|unicameral]] [[w:presidential republic|presidential republic]].<br />
<br />
Free Nakoosa Republic was founded by the [[Democratic Weimar Republic]] after a liberation mission during the [[Great Des Plaines Valley War]]. The nation's primary motivation was to establish a society based on principles of personal freedom, individual liberty, and democratic decision-making.<br />
<br />
Nakoosa's territory encompasses a small section of land on the western shore of Lake Castle Rock. The micronation's borders are demarcated by a small fence and marked by a flag displaying the state symbol. Despite its small size, the Free Nakoosa Republic has its own government, constitution, and legal system.<br />
<br />
The Free Nakoosa Republic operates as a unicameral presidential republic, with executive power vested in the President and legislative power held by the unicameral Parliament. The President is elected by majority vote and serves as the head of state and government. The Parliament is composed of a single chamber, and its members are elected through a proportional representation system.<br />
<br />
Since its founding, the Free Nakoosa Republic has actively sought recognition from other nations and has embarked on a campaign to expand its diplomatic relations with the wider international community. The micronation's leadership has stated that their ultimate goal is to establish Nakoosa as a fully recognized and independent nation-state.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
Nakoosa is named after the city of [[w:Nekoosa, Wisconsin|Nekoosa]], [[w:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]] although instead of a e it used an a. Mispelling names slightly is commonly used by the [[Des Plaines Valley Sector]] such as the [[Chavaleir Republic]] instead of the "Chevalier Republic" or [[La Bamboise]] instead of La Framboise. Nakoosa is heavily influenced by the Des Plaines Valley Sector as it was founded by the [[Democratic Weimar Republic]].<br />
===National Symbols===<br />
The national flag is inspired by flags of [[w:Boy Scouts of America|Boy Scout]] troop flags. These flags commonly have the [[w:Fleur-de-lis|fleur-de-lis]] on them. The fleur-de-lis is the national symbol of Nakoosa as it was for the [[Philmont Confederation]]. The coat of arms of Nakoosa is modeled after the [[w:State seal of Wisconsin|State seal of Wisconsin]]. The shield is replaced with the fleur-de-lis and the [[w:badger|badger]] replaces the lead ingots next to the [[w:cornucopia|cornucopia]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
{{WIP}}<br />
===Pre-Micronationalism===<br />
The land where Nakoosa is now was the land of the [[w:Ho chunk|Ho chunk]] and [[w:Menominee|Menominee]] people. the land was colonized by [[w:France|France]] in 1534. it later change hands after the [[w:French and Indian War|French and Indian War]] to the [[w: Great Britain|British]]. the land was later admitted to the Northwest Territory by the [[w:United States|United States]] and in 1848 the state of [[w:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]]. Nakoosa is on [[w:Castle Rock Lake|Castle Rock Lake]], an artificial lake on the Wisconsin River. Before the Castle Rock Dam was completed in 1951, the area held farmlands, vast prairies, and forested knolls separated by the Wisconsin River. The area where main Nakoosa is located was founded as a [[w:Boy Scouts of America|Boy Scout]] camp, Camp Castle Rock. In the early 2000's the camp was renamed to Ed Bryant Scout Reservation. Most people, even Nakoosans, still refer to the main Nakoosa as Ed Bryant or EBSR. What is now the frontier of Nakoosa was made a [[w:Buckhorn State Park|Buckhorn State Park]] managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.<br />
<br />
===Philmont Confederation===<br />
====Great Des Plaines Valley War====<br />
in 2021 the [[Philmont Confederation]] claimed control over the setteled regions of the area as a military base. On 11 July, [[New Germany|Weimar]] forces invaded Camp Castle Rock. A campaign against the small garrison of Philmont soldiers holding out with no hope of reinforcements coming. For the first 3 days, only a small camp was liberated in the modern day province of Bavaia. however, on 13 June, a more aggressive approach was taken and half the territory was liberated by Weimar troops. The next day, heavy rain impaired operations, but near night fall, heavy fighting erupted along the roads of the territory and ended near the original camp. On the night of 17 July, the final night of occupation, small patrols were launched to disrupted the demoralized and thin supply lines of the Philmont army the [[2nd Observation Regiment]] was also dispatched to raid the capitol building. on 18 July, the Free Philmont Republic was created shortly following the surrender of the Philmont garrison in the territory.<br />
<br />
===Independence===<br />
for a time the newly formed country was given the liberty of [[w:Self-determination|Self-determination]] however with the onset of the [[Cicero Spenninger]], [[New Germany]] wanted to regrow it's once great empire and so it was claimed as a [[New German Colonial Empire#New German Colonial terminology|Commonwealth]]. even though it was officially part of the [[New German Colonial Empire]] it was still left to it's own devises.<br />
<br />
===Summer of Prosperity===<br />
during the Summer of [[2022]] [[New Germany]] at last put effort toward the territory. many workers from New Germany were sent to build up infrastructure and the economy. by midsummer the frontier was also claimed as an official part of the territory. it was ranked as the second best territory by the New German Territory ministry, the predecessor to the New German [[Riechs-Kommandant]]. however with these workers came Trolls, a group of people from the [[Des Plaines Valley Sector]] caused civil unrest causing disruption in the food supply line, a power outage, and even injury to [[New German Ranger Service|New German Rangers]]. the [[New German Intelligence Agency]] went to great lenghts to keep this hidden, however many Rangers leaked the information to the Nakoosan public.<br />
<br />
===Weg Election Rigging===<br />
on the 10th of March 2023 the [[Free Philmont Republic]] would hold an election for the next Senior Chairman. during the election the New German backed [[Sakaive]] was accused of rigging the election when in fact he had never actually voted for a legitimate candidate. he lost the election over a deeply controversial single vote, also of 5 counters, 1 was voted of the council for apparent "conduct unbecoming" . during the election of the Vice Chairman again [[Sakaive]] ran and again only voted for an illegitimate candidate, the only tampering with the election it seems was for this illegitimate candidate. and when all the votes were accounted for it was found that [[Sakaive]] would have won the position of Vice Chairman. after the election it was found that a 3 of the original 5 counters were paid off by [[Cole Baird]] to rig the election. this also proves that the apparent "conduct unbecoming" was false and the council wanted to make sure that Weg backed candidates.<br />
<br />
===New Freedom Era===<br />
In late March of 2023 [[Cole Baird]] became a citizen of the FPR similar to their citizenship in [[Cole Baird|other nations]]. Cole plans to live in Nakoosa over the summer as worker in one of the companies located in [[Laertes]]. This type of citizenship was exceptional as Cole Baird introduced the [[Constitution of Nakoosa]] to the council responsible for Nakoosa. Nakoosa has adapted the Constitution and they are now a [[w:presidential system|presidential]] [[w:parliamentary republic|parliamentary republic]]. In Wegmat, Cole Baird is an attorney in the [[Kearsage Law Frim]] along with their several political offices held in Wegmat. Nakoosa now holds a special governence and are shall be governed by the people of Nakoosa and not the council, located in [[Priory]]. Along with Cole's push for more independance as a commonwealth, they also adapted the name ''Nakoosa'' to avoid confusion with [[w:Philmont Scout Ranch|Philmont Scout Ranch]] located in New Mexico. The government has only adopted the name Nakoosa and people in the [[Des Plaines Valley Sector]], Nakoosa as a place is colloquilly reffered to as ''Ed Bryant''. After the New German investigation into the election interference believed to be caused by the [[Wegmat Government]], the Free Philmont Republic was dissolved. Once this happened [[Vladimir Baruh]] had the Weg-backed candidates located in [[Priory]] were arrested and barred from holding Nakoosan office. Vladimir was inspired to reform the Free Philmont Republic and thus had the [[w:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]] [[Riechs-Kommandant]] put the Constitution into effect. Due to the location of New Germany away from Nakoosa, as well as the lack of complete control over the territory; the government in the Duchy of the FPR was dissolved and the current Nakoosan government was formed. Nakoosa was given official Commonwealth status and was de-jure left alone by [[New Germany]]. In May 2023, the new government was faced with civil unrest by Trollies located in rural "unprotected areas" in Nakoosa who wanted Independence. The [[New German Intelligence Agency]] launched an investigation into the claims by the Nakoosan government but stated that the findings were insignificant.<br />
<br />
===Nakoosa Terrorist Attack===<br />
{{main|Nakoosa Terrorist Attack}}<br />
on May 13 2023 during a visit to Nakoosa [[Cole Baird]] accompanied by Kaiser [[Vladimir Baruh]] wre attacked by Trollie nationalists who attempted to take the two leaders hostage. however [[New German Ranger Service|New German Rangers]] held the nationalists off long enough for the leaders to escape. later during a patrol a dead house cat was found on the shore and Rangers were dispatched to investigate however they were forced to return after a large force of nationalists attacked them. the nationalists escaped to the frontier later that night. an investigation by the Nakoosan Military and the [[New German Intelligence Agency]] and found that a fuedal Kingdom was formed in the frontier of the Republic. the Nakoosan government has began negotiations however many New German Military Advisers began preparing New German Divisions to be sent into Nakoosa in June.<br />
<br />

===Political Geography===<br />
<br />
==Culture==<br />
===Cuisine and Drink===<br />
Nakoosa's cuisine and drink are heavily influenced by the state of [[w:Cuisine and Drink of Wisconsin|Wisconsin]], as the nation is located in the heart of the state. Wisconsin is known for its cheese, bratwurst, and beer. Cheese curds, a popular snack in Wisconsin, can be found in many restaurants and convenience stores throughout Nakoosa.

In these areas, you can find buildings made of brick, concrete, and wood paneling that feature sleek lines and contemporary designs. Despite this, the use of log cabins and rustic elements remains a defining feature of Nakoosa's architectural landscape.<br />
<br />

Additionally, the government promotes sustainable practices in manufacturing to protect the environment and ensure the long-term viability of the industry.<br />
<br />
===Agriculture===<br />
Agriculture plays a role in Nakoosa's economy, with most of the food produced in small gardens. The country's cooler climate and shorter growing seasons limit the types of crops that can be grown.

<br />
<br />
==Infrastructure==<br />
Nakoosa's infrastructure is characterized by its ruggedness and simplicity. The majority of the transportation network consists of dirt roads and trails, which can be challenging to navigate in inclement weather. Despite this, the transportation network connects the major towns and cities of Nakoosa. Electricity is primarily limited to the largest towns and cities, while running water is available throughout the country during the summer. <br />
<br />
===Utility===<br />
The utility infrastructure in Nakoosa primarily focuses on electricity, gas, plumbing, and internet. The electric grid is located in the eastern area of the southern peninsula and covers Portofino, Buckhorn View, Laertes, Trapoli, Petra, and Kozy, providing full power and gas. However, Bavaria and Handiswamp have limited electricity with no gas coverage. Running water is available throughout Nakoosa, and plumbing systems are in place in all towns and cities. As for internet, most areas rely on satellite and cellular networks for connectivity, with limited fiber optic coverage. The cost of utilities is covered through taxation. Internet is avaible in Peter Rice and Portofino.<br />
<br />
===Transportation===<br />
Nakoosa's transportation system primarily relies on its road network, with the Southern Peninsula having three main wide roads. The Big Loop covers the western parts of the peninsula, while the Small Loop covers the eastern parts. The [[Nakoosa National Highway 1]] is the only paved road in the region, running from the border with the United States past Peter Rice to Portofino. There are five other roads for automobiles, with the rest of the national road system meant for bikes and pedestrians.<br />
<br />
In terms of water transportation, two private companies, Bavaria and Laertes Shipping, as well as the Yellow River Shipping Company, run the ferry industries that take passengers across the coastal areas, notably to and from the Southern and Northern Peninsulas. However, Nakoosa lacks any rail or air coverage, which can be a challenge for those looking to travel longer distances or transport goods quickly. Nonetheless, the ferry system is a reliable and popular mode of transportation for both locals and tourists.<br />
<br />
===Healthcare===<br />
The [[National Hospital of Nakoosa]] in Peter Rice is the primary healthcare facility for the residents of Nakoosa. It offers a range of medical services, including emergency care, inpatient and outpatient services, and surgical procedures. The hospital is staffed by a team of skilled medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, and support staff. In addition to the National Hospital, there are four other smaller medical centers located throughout the region, which primarily provide first aid services to residents.<br />
<br />
Despite the limited number of healthcare facilities, the Nakoosa government places a strong emphasis on the health and well-being of its citizens. The government provides funding for public health initiatives, including vaccination campaigns and disease prevention programs. Additionally, the government encourages healthy living through education and awareness programs, promoting physical activity, healthy eating habits, and regular health check-ups.<br />
<br />
Despite these efforts, there are still challenges to accessing healthcare in some remote parts of the region. The lack of transportation infrastructure can make it difficult for residents in rural areas to travel to healthcare facilities. The Nakoosa government is working to address these challenges by investing in telemedicine technologies, which allow residents to access medical consultations remotely. Additionally, community health workers are trained and deployed to provide basic medical care and advice in rural areas.<br />

<br />
Free Nakoosa Republic was founded by the [[Democratic Weimar Republic]] after a liberation mission during the [[Great Des Plaines Valley War]].

<br />
Nakoosa's territory encompasses a small section of land on the western shore of Lake Castle Rock.

<br />
==Etymology==<br />

Mispelling names slightly is commonly used by the [[Des Plaines Valley Sector]] such as the [[Chavaleir Republic]] instead of the "Chevalier Republic" or [[La Bamboise]] instead of La Framboise. Nakoosa is heavily influenced by the Des Plaines Valley Sector as it was founded by the [[Democratic Weimar Republic]].<br />
===National Symbols===<br />

<br />
==History==<br />
{{WIP}}<br />
===Pre-Micronationalism===<br />
The land where Nakoosa is now was the land of the [[w:Ho chunk|Ho chunk]] and [[w:Menominee|Menominee]] people. the land was colonized by [[w:France|France]] in 1534. it later change hands after the [[w:French and Indian War|French and Indian War]] to the [[w: Great Britain|British]]. the land was later admitted to the Northwest Territory by the [[w:United States|United States]] and in 1848 the state of [[w:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]]. Nakoosa is on [[w:Castle Rock Lake|Castle Rock Lake]], an artificial lake on the Wisconsin River. Before the Castle Rock Dam was completed in 1951, the area held farmlands, vast prairies, and forested knolls separated by the Wisconsin River. The area where main Nakoosa is located was founded as a [[w:Boy Scouts of America|Boy Scout]] camp, Camp Castle Rock. In the early 2000's the camp was renamed to Ed Bryant Scout Reservation. Most people, even Nakoosans, still refer to the main Nakoosa as Ed Bryant or EBSR. What is now the frontier of Nakoosa was made a [[w:Buckhorn State Park|Buckhorn State Park]] managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.<br />
<br />
===Philmont Confederation===<br />
====Great Des Plaines Valley War====<br />
in 2021 the [[Philmont Confederation]] claimed control over the setteled regions of the area as a military base. On 11 July, [[New Germany|Weimar]] forces invaded Camp Castle Rock. A campaign against the small garrison of Philmont soldiers holding out with no hope of reinforcements coming. For the first 3 days, only a small camp was liberated in the modern day province of Bavaia. however, on 13 June, a more aggressive approach was taken and half the territory was liberated by Weimar troops. The next day, heavy rain impaired operations, but near night fall, heavy fighting erupted along the roads of the territory and ended near the original camp. On the night of 17 July, the final night of occupation, small patrols were launched to disrupted the demoralized and thin supply lines of the Philmont army the [[2nd Observation Regiment]] was also dispatched to raid the capitol building. on 18 July, the Free Philmont Republic was created shortly following the surrender of the Philmont garrison in the territory.<br />
<br />
===Independence===<br />
for a time the newly formed country was given the liberty of [[w:Self-determination|Self-determination]] however with the onset of the [[Cicero Spenninger]], [[New Germany]] wanted to regrow it's once great empire and so it was claimed as a [[New German Colonial Empire#New German Colonial terminology|Commonwealth]]. even though it was officially part of the [[New German Colonial Empire]] it was still left to it's own devises.<br />
<br />
===Summer of Prosperity===<br />
during the Summer of [[2022]] [[New Germany]] at last put effort toward the territory. many workers from New Germany were sent to build up infrastructure and the economy. by midsummer the frontier was also claimed as an official part of the territory. it was ranked as the second best territory by the New German Territory ministry, the predecessor to the New German [[Riechs-Kommandant]]. however with these workers came Trolls, a group of people from the [[Des Plaines Valley Sector]] caused civil unrest causing disruption in the food supply line, a power outage, and even injury to [[New German Ranger Service|New German Rangers]]. the [[New German Intelligence Agency]] went to great lenghts to keep this hidden, however many Rangers leaked the information to the Nakoosan public.<br />
<br />
===Weg Election Rigging===<br />
on the 10th of March 2023 the [[Free Philmont Republic]] would hold an election for the next Senior Chairman. during the election the New German backed [[Sakaive]] was accused of rigging the election when in fact he had never actually voted for a legitimate candidate. he lost the election over a deeply controversial single vote, also of 5 counters, 1 was voted of the council for apparent "conduct unbecoming" . during the election of the Vice Chairman again [[Sakaive]] ran and again only voted for an illegitimate candidate, the only tampering with the election it seems was for this illegitimate candidate. and when all the votes were accounted for it was found that [[Sakaive]] would have won the position of Vice Chairman. after the election it was found that a 3 of the original 5 counters were paid off by [[Cole Baird]] to rig the election. this also proves that the apparent "conduct unbecoming" was false and the council wanted to make sure that Weg backed candidates.<br />
<br />
===New Freedom Era===<br />
In late March of 2023 [[Cole Baird]] became a citizen of the FPR similar to their citizenship in [[Cole Baird|other nations]]. Cole plans to live in Nakoosa over the summer as worker in one of the companies located in [[Laertes]]. This type of citizenship was exceptional as Cole Baird introduced the [[Constitution of Nakoosa]] to the council responsible for Nakoosa. Nakoosa has adapted the Constitution and they are now a [[w:presidential system|presidential]] [[w:parliamentary republic|parliamentary republic]]. In Wegmat, Cole Baird is an attorney in the [[Kearsage Law Frim]] along with their several political offices held in Wegmat. Nakoosa now holds a special governence and are shall be governed by the people of Nakoosa and not the council, located in [[Priory]]. Along with Cole's push for more independance as a commonwealth, they also adapted the name ''Nakoosa'' to avoid confusion with [[w:Philmont Scout Ranch|Philmont Scout Ranch]] located in New Mexico. The government has only adopted the name Nakoosa and people in the [[Des Plaines Valley Sector]], Nakoosa as a place is colloquilly reffered to as ''Ed Bryant''. After the New German investigation into the election interference believed to be caused by the [[Wegmat Government]], the Free Philmont Republic was dissolved. Once this happened [[Vladimir Baruh]] had the Weg-backed candidates located in [[Priory]] were arrested and barred from holding Nakoosan office. Vladimir was inspired to reform the Free Philmont Republic and thus had the [[w:Wisconsin|Wisconsin]] [[Riechs-Kommandant]] put the Constitution into effect. Due to the location of New Germany away from Nakoosa, as well as the lack of complete control over the territory; the government in the Duchy of the FPR was dissolved and the current Nakoosan government was formed. Nakoosa was given official Commonwealth status and was de-jure left alone by [[New Germany]]. In May 2023, the new government was faced with civil unrest by Trollies located in rural "unprotected areas" in Nakoosa who wanted Independence. The [[New German Intelligence Agency]] launched an investigation into the claims by the Nakoosan government but stated that the findings were insignificant.<br />

In addition to this, the town has a thriving agricultural sector, with farmers producing crops such as tomatoes, peppers, and carrots. Other important industries in Nakoosa include tourism and service-oriented businesses, catering to the numerous visitors who come to enjoy the town's scenic natural beauty and recreational opportunities. Small-scale retail and local crafts also contribute to the town's economy.<br />
<br />
===Woodproducts===<br />
The manufacturing industry is a significant part of Nakoosa's economy. The wooden products industry is the largest manufacturing sector in the country, with many companies specializing in creating furniture, wooden toys, and other household items. The industrial cities of Laertes, Handiswamp, and Petra's are the main centers of production, with several factories located in these areas. Many of these factories are family-owned and operated, with a focus on creating high-quality, handcrafted goods. The Nakoosa government provides support to these businesses through tax incentives, low-interest loans, and other programs to encourage growth in the manufacturing sector. Additionally, the government promotes sustainable practices in manufacturing to protect the environment and ensure the long-term viability of the industry.<br />
<br />
===Agriculture===<br />
Agriculture plays a role in Nakoosa's economy, with most of the food produced in small gardens. The country's cooler climate and shorter growing seasons limit the types of crops that can be grown. However, some farmers still cultivate a variety of fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and strawberries. The nation's agriculture is mainly focused on sustainable and organic practices, with many farmers practicing composting and using natural fertilizers. In addition, there are a few small-scale farms that produce eggs, honey, and other products. Nakoosa has a major farmers' market during the summer months where residents can buy fresh produce and other locally-made goods.<br />
<br />
===Fishing===<br />
[[File:Prime Port of Nakoosa.png|250px|thumb|The Prime Port of Nakoosa is a major hub for trade and many other commerce activites in Nakoosa.]]<br />
Fishing is a popular activity in Nakoosa due to its location on [[w:Castle Rock Lake|Castle Rock Lake]] and its territorial waters. There are various species of freshwater fish that can be caught in the area, including walleye, musky, northern pike, bass, panfish, and catfish. [[w:Walleye|Walleye]] is a highly prized game fish that can be found in abundance in the lake, especially during the spring and fall seasons. [[w:Musky|Musky]], also known as the "king of freshwater fish," is another popular game fish that can be caught in the area. Northern pike and bass are also common catches, and panfish such as bluegill and crappie are plentiful and easy to catch. Additionally, catfish can be found in the river and lake, and they are known for their excellent taste and fighting ability. Fishing tournaments and derbies are occasionally held in Nakoosa, and the community enjoys celebrating the annual Fishing Opener in early May.<br />
<br />
===Tourism===<br />
Tourism is an important industry in Nakoosa, due to its location on Castle Rock Lake and its proximity to the popular tourist destination of [[w:Wisconsin Dells|Wisconsin Dells]]. The country offers a range of outdoor recreational activities, such as fishing, boating, camping, and hiking in the [[Buckhorn Peninsula]]. Visitors can also explore the small towns and rural areas of Nakoosa, which offer a glimpse into the region's history and culture. The town hosts several annual events, such as the Nakoosa Winterfest and the Nakoosa Summer Games, which attract visitors from around the region. Additionally, the nation has several resorts, lodges, and cabins that offer accommodations to tourists. Overall, Nakoosa's natural beauty and recreational opportunities make it a popular destination for tourists seeking outdoor adventures and relaxation.<br />
<br />
==Education==<br />
Education is highly valued in the Free Nakoosa Republic, with a focus on practical skills that can be applied in the local economy. The National University of Handicrafts in Handiswamp is a public university that teaches basic handicraft skills and jobs performed at the National WoodProduct Plant of Handiswamp. Students can learn woodworking, furniture making, and other skills related to the local timber industry. The university system is operated by the Department of Education, and tuition is relatively low.<br />
<br />
The Nakoosa University of Handicrafts, located in [[Laertes]], is a chartered university that teaches more advanced skills related to the timber industry. Students can learn about sawmilling, woodworking, and furniture design, among other topics. The university is also affiliated with the [[Laertes WoodProduct Plant]], providing students with opportunities for practical experience.<br />
<br />
For those interested in the arts, the National University of the Arts in [[Traposti]] is an excellent choice. The university offers programs in photography, painting, sculpture, film, and theater. The curriculum is designed to foster creativity and artistic expression while providing practical skills for students who wish to pursue careers in the arts.<br />
<br />
The National University of the Navy, located in [[Buckhorn View]], prepares students for careers in the [[Nakoosa Merchant Marine]]. The university offers programs in navigation, seamanship, and marine engineering. Students can also learn about the principles of maritime law and international trade. The university is closely linked to the Nakoosa Merchant Marine, providing students with opportunities for hands-on experience.<br />
<br />
For students interested in technology, the National University of STEM, located in [[Peter Rice]], is an excellent choice. The university offers programs in computer science, engineering, and mathematics. Students can learn about software development, robotics, and other cutting-edge technologies. The university is well-equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and has close ties to local tech companies.<br />
<br />
The National University of Ecology and Conservation, located in [[Petra's]], teaches environmental science and agriculture. Students can learn about sustainable agriculture, environmental policy, and conservation biology. The university is affiliated with several local conservation organizations, providing students with opportunities for hands-on research and fieldwork.<br />
<br />
Overall, the education system in the Free Nakoosa Republic is designed to provide students with practical skills that can be applied in the local economy. The emphasis on trades and vocational education has helped to build a skilled workforce that can support the Woodworking industry, tourism, and other key sectors of the economy.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Infrastructure==<br />
Nakoosa's infrastructure is characterized by its ruggedness and simplicity. The majority of the transportation network consists of dirt roads and trails, which can be challenging to navigate in inclement weather. Despite this, the transportation network connects the major towns and cities of Nakoosa. Electricity is primarily limited to the largest towns and cities, while running water is available throughout the country during the summer. <br />
<br />
===Utility===<br />
The utility infrastructure in Nakoosa primarily focuses on electricity, gas, plumbing, and internet. The electric grid is located in the eastern area of the southern peninsula and covers Portofino, Buckhorn View, Laertes, Trapoli, Petra, and Kozy, providing full power and gas. However, Bavaria and Handiswamp have limited electricity with no gas coverage. Running water is available throughout Nakoosa, and plumbing systems are in place in all towns and cities. As for internet, most areas rely on satellite and cellular networks for connectivity, with limited fiber optic coverage. The cost of utilities is covered through taxation. Internet is avaible in Peter Rice and Portofino.<br />
<br />
===Transportation===<br />
Nakoosa's transportation system primarily relies on its road network, with the Southern Peninsula having three main wide roads. The Big Loop covers the western parts of the peninsula, while the Small Loop covers the eastern parts. The [[Nakoosa National Highway 1]] is the only paved road in the region, running from the border with the United States past Peter Rice to Portofino. There are five other roads for automobiles, with the rest of the national road system meant for bikes and pedestrians.<br />
<br />
In terms of water transportation, two private companies, Bavaria and Laertes Shipping, as well as the Yellow River Shipping Company, run the ferry industries that take passengers across the coastal areas, notably to and from the Southern and Northern Peninsulas. However, Nakoosa lacks any rail or air coverage, which can be a challenge for those looking to travel longer distances or transport goods quickly. Nonetheless, the ferry system is a reliable and popular mode of transportation for both locals and tourists.<br />
<br />
===Healthcare===<br />
The [[National Hospital of Nakoosa]] in Peter Rice is the primary healthcare facility for the residents of Nakoosa. It offers a range of medical services, including emergency care, inpatient and outpatient services, and surgical procedures. The hospital is staffed by a team of skilled medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, and support staff. In addition to the National Hospital, there are four other smaller medical centers located throughout the region, which primarily provide first aid services to residents.<br />
<br />
Despite the limited number of healthcare facilities, the Nakoosa government places a strong emphasis on the health and well-being of its citizens. The government provides funding for public health initiatives, including vaccination campaigns and disease prevention programs. Additionally, the government encourages healthy living through education and awareness programs, promoting physical activity, healthy eating habits, and regular health check-ups.<br />
<br />
Despite these efforts, there are still challenges to accessing healthcare in some remote parts of the region. The lack of transportation infrastructure can make it difficult for residents in rural areas to travel to healthcare facilities. The Nakoosa government is working to address these challenges by investing in telemedicine technologies, which allow residents to access medical consultations remotely. Additionally, community health workers are trained and deployed to provide basic medical care and advice in rural areas.<br />

{{LGBT series}}<br />
Many [[Micronationalism|micronations]] have adopted '''laws''' regarding [[w:Transgender|transgender]] people, referred-to throughout this article as "trans" (so as to be rather broad in definition). Sexuality is another matter, addressed by [[LGB rights in micronations|this article]]. These laws vary greatly by micronation, and in many cases [[w:LGBT rights by country or territory|macronational law]] may interfere with the implementation of these laws.<br />
<br />
Trans issues have been discussed in the [[MicroWiki Sector]] on several occasions, and many leaders of prominent micronations in this sector are open about their being trans. The topic is quite controversial. The [[Augusta Accord]] is one well-known event relating to transgenderism in micronationalism. <br />
<br />
==Scope of laws==<br />
Matters that can affect transpeople include, but are not limited to, the following:<br />
* laws concerning [[w:LGBT parenting|transgender parenting]], including [[w:LGBT adoption|adoption by transpeople]]<br />
* laws concerning [[w:LGBT marriage|transgender marriage]], particularly in regards to existing marriages in which a party transitions.<br />
* [[w:Anti-discrimination laws|anti-discrimination]] in employment, housing, education, public accommodations<br />
* [[w:Anti-bullying legislation|anti-bullying legislation]] to protect gender-nonconforming children at school<br />
* [[w:Hate crime laws|hate crime laws]] imposing enhanced criminal penalties for prejudice-motivated [[w:Violence against LGBT people|violence against transpeople]]<br />
* access to target-sex facilities, such as [[w:Bathroom bill|bathrooms]] and prisons<br />
* [[w:Gender identity and military service|ability to perform military service]]<br />
* access to [[w:Assisted reproductive technology|assisted reproductive technologies]]<br />
* access to medical interventions, such as [[w:Hormone replacement therapy (transgender)|hormone replacement therapy]] and [[w:Gender affirming surgeries|gender affirming surgeries]]<br />
* access to transgender care for children<br />
* [[w:Legal aspects of transgenderism|legal recognition and accommodation of target gender/sex]].<br />
* [[w:Preferred pronoun|preferred pronouns]], and the extent to which their observance is mandatory.<br />

Surgery is much less reversible than HRT. As well, some surgeries can be avoided through HRT. MtFs, after many years on bioidentical estradiol, develop sizeable breast tissue; early surgery would be akin to giving a young girl breast implants.

'''Abierta''' is a province in the [[Federal Union of Wegmat]]. Abierta is part of the In-Provinces, meaning it is in the general area of [[Two Pine]]. Abierta became a territory as a protest to a road being expanded, removing several trees. Abierta was admitted as a province in October 2021.<br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
Abierta simply is the feminine verb for "Open" in [[w:Spanish Language|Spanish]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Abierta is located north of the [[Schiller River]] making it part of the [[Schiller Territory]]. Abierta lies on the empty [[Great Plaines of Schiller]], despite most of the province lacking resources to support deer population it quickly garnered interest by the annexation and incorporation teams during the summer of 2020. The small town of [[Che-Che]] was founded as it was between the famous [[Magic Water Pump]] and [[Loves Peak]]. The [[Wegmat Armed Forces]] quickly claimed the [[Bodwatmi-Flying Intermicronation Airport]] as the Airstrip Zone under special administration. The Airstrip Zone was oversized and the short-lived Federal court, Crystal Springs Court of the North ordered that the zone be auctioned off. The zone was controversially sold to the [[Wegmat Ministry of Agriculture]] causing a lawsuit against the [[Wegmat Air Corp]] which was settled in the Crystal Springs Court that there were no provisions in the court order that prohibited selling to another federal agency. This sparked the Great Air Riots which first happened at the gates of the airbase and another riot took place right after the Territory of Abierta was formed and the federal government still owned much of the land in Abierta. The City of Flying was established and the Airstrip Zone was dissolved forming WAC North. The civil unrest quickly toned down by the outbreak of the [[Great Des Plaines Valley War]]. Minor fighting happened in southern Abierta during the [[Battle of Whynofly]] but the territory did not face an existential threat. Abierta was admitted as a province in October 2021. WAC North turned into WAC Flying and the airport became mainly civil. Abierta is still relativly empty outside of the southern forests closer to the [[Schiller River]].<br />
<br />
==Geography==<br />
[[File:Great Schiller.jpeg|200px|thumb|left|A water pump in Abierta.]]<br />
Abierta is a landlocked province and the only province without an international border. Abierta borders Drystone to the southeast, Irving to the west, and South Potwatomi to the north. The majority of Abierta lies on the [[Great Plaines of Schiller]], an expansive field filled with grass cut by the [[w:Forest Preserve District of Cook County|Forest Preserve District of Cook County]]. The province is mainly populated in the two cities of [[Flying]] and [[Che-Che]] making up 72% of the population. Abierta only has two other incorporated towns. The town of Somewhere is located in the West of the province near the border with Irving. The town of Hilltop is located at the base of [[Mount Tweedy]] and is prominently a tourist town. Abierta has a small panhandle reaching [[Big Mud Lake]] although that area is solely the National Lakeshore.<br />
<br />
==Economy==<br />
The economy of Abierta relies heavily on transportation due to its central location. Bodwatmi-Flying Airport is the largest and most well-maintained airport in Wegmat and thus is very important to air transportation. [[Union Des Plaines]] hubs in Flying for its operations in Northern Wegmat. Abierta has the second smallest GDP per capita in the country. Most of the deer registered as living in Abierta use agriculture in [[Irving]] and the Potawatomi provinces.<br />
<br />
==Law and politics==<br />
Abierta has historically had mixed political opinions. In the [[2021 Wegmat Presidential Election]] the shortlived Homo-fascist party of Wegmat. Since then the province has voted mainly for the [[Founders Party]] in both federal elections and to the provincial council. Abierta is a federated republic and has 3 branches of government. The Governor of Abierta is the chief executive of the government and administrates the Cabinet which has several departments. The provincial council is the legislative and is made up of 3 seats elected from a district in the [[Che-Che]] area, [[Flying]] area, and northern Abierta. The Court of Abierta is delegated to one body and is located in Che-Che to hear all cases. The Judge of the court is elected like the Governor.<br />
<br />
==Infrastructure==<br />
Abierta has a robust paved road network and is the largest automotive network in the nation except for [[Cenwister]]. Abierta also has access to the Irving Power Grid. Infrastructure is mostly owned by the Federal Government of [[Forest Preserve District of Cook County]] althought the province does own more infrastructure than others due to its large state government.<br />

'''Crankbait''' is a 2023 Weg [[w:horror film|horror]] short film written and directed by [[Charlotte Baird]] and produced by her production company Beach Death Pictures. The film was released on 13 December 2023. The majority of filming took place in the province of [[Hilda]], however, the movie's setting is mostly in an unknown place. The film follows a smug and rude character being lured into their death along with one another by the promise of 2.2 Million USD in gold bars.<br />
<br />
==Plot==<br />
The protagonist, unnamed (Ari Tweedy) digs a hole and uncovers a shoe box with a note, telling them a second clue is at a restaurant if you order a particular item not on the member. The protagonist talks to an unnamed person on the phone about the situation and goes to the restaurant. They are approached by Charles Winsel-Thindleberry (Bobby Tansey) who sits uncomfortably close to the protagonist. Charles pulls out a similar note striking up a conversation about the the professor, Dr. Verbose. The protagonist is fairly rude and leaves to find the third clue. At the third clue, the protagonist sees a gas mask in the hiding spot before being startled by Charles. They argue until they agree to rock paper scissors for a headstart. The protagonist gets the headstart and reaches the fourth location, a storm sewer. They assume that they have to go in to find the clue. They go in and crawl out and end up in what the writer says is meant to be a depiction of hell, and the character is now dead. They find a note in their pocket telling them to retrieve the final clue from a man in a gas mask (Bobby Tansey). They go to the man and are chased as the protagonist tries to return to the drainage pipe. The gas-masked man in the tunnel runs out and strangles the protagonist. The protagonist wakes up in a house without power, they are attacked once more by the gas-masked man and dragged to a chair. The protagonist begs the assailant to stop but they are killed using a plastic bag. There is a disturbing shot of the protagonist lying dead in a bathtub before they wake up in a place more bloody and injured. They walk back to the storage room where they find the bloodied corpse of Charles and they open a door and a bright golden light shines in their face. They laugh and fall to the ground.<br />
===Analysys===<br />
The [[National Journal]]'s art team interprets the film as two people who ruined Dr. Verbose's life and are lead to hell to be killed by his ghost. The first death by strangulation is supposed to be the protagonist's legitimate death. After that, they are judged by the gas-masked man and are sent to hell permanently which they realize once they open the door to the light and hear the screams of the damned. The the "crankbait" was the lure of the inheritance.<br />
<br />
==Production==<br />
The idea of the film was fought of for many years and shaped into a full-fledged horror film. It was confirmed that either way the concept would use the song [[w:Stratoshphere (album)#Track listing|Moon Age]] by [[w:Duster|Duster]]. The film officially started development in the beginning of November 2023 as a script was being developed. Principal photography took place on the 2nd, 7th, and 9th of December 2023 in [[Hilda]], [[Ephraim]] and [[Two Pine]]. Editing coincided with filming and was completed exactly on the deadline on 12 December 2023. It was released in the 4 movie theaters in the Wegmat in-provinces by Wormhole Studios. It is the first work of Charlotte Baird's production company Beach Death Pictures as well as her directoral debut for a narrative short film.<br />

<div>{{History of Wegmat}}<br />
The Kingdom of '''[[Wegmat]]''' was founded on 30 November 2018 in [[Two Pine]], it was revived on 4 April 2019 by the [[April 4 Acts]]. Wegmat entered the [[MicroWiki Community]] in July 2019. The Kingdom of Wegmat reformed into the Federal Union in August 2020.<br />
<br />
==Pre-Micronationalism==<br />
[[Cole Baird]] roamed much of their neighborhood, Trailmark, a [[w:American suburb|subdivision]] in [[w:Littleton, Colorado|Littleton]], [[w:Colorado|Colorado]], and designated trails a specific road number. They also designated their house as a city and built street signs. When Cole got into the [[w:video game|game]] [[w:Minecraft|Minecraft]], they created the Republic of Falmont, with them acting as the President. the Republic of Falmont had its own Congress with friends of Cole acting as representatives online in a Minecraft world that acted as the capital. Another influential figure in Weg history who also had a major interest in things similar to micronationalism was declared the king of his street in [[w:Chicago|Chicago]], [[w:Illinois|Illinois]]. Cole moved to the same neighborhood in 2017. Falmont continued until December 2017. <br />
<br />
==Ridab==<br />
Wegmat was founded on 30 November 2018 in [[Two Pine]] under the name Wegmat before changing to Ridab in the first few hours. Ridab was an [[w:Absolute monarchy|absolute monarchy]] and recognized animals as citizens. Its very small constitution was written to designate slight control of the nation to the government. Ridab's only notable historical event was the [[Squirrell Tower Offense]]. Ridab was quite inactive until late March 2019, when the Prime Minister, [[Cole Baird]], visited the [[Conch Republic]] for [[w:Spring break|spring break]]. Soon afterward, they decided to start drafting a new [[w:Constitution|constitution]], as well as encouraging other people to become citizens of Wegmat. These events led up to the [[April 4 Acts]], which formally renamed Ridab to Wegmat and overall made the government more democratic.<br />
<br />
==Development==<br />
On 4 April 2019, the Prime Minister's draft of the Constitution was passed by a parliament that was appointed by Cole. Wegmat, which was originally a [[w:City-state|city-state]], annexed what were known as the North and South Provinces, which later became [[Essef]], <br />
[[Gliffork]], [[New Finland]] and [[Cenwister]]. Wegmat's operations during this time were almost exclusively done inside a school. Power was not quite central yet which led to a citizen named DJ attempting to overthrow the Weg government. He was exiled from Wegmat and his citizenship revoked. Another citizen named TJ formed the first stock market in Markonton, North Province.<br />
<br />
Another person who wanted to overthrow Cole from power formed New Asia United which declared war on Wegmat. This was known as the [[Shoe war|Shoe War]], New Asia United and Wegmat would fight 1 battle in what was [[Priory National Park]] and one in [[Bobbygrad]]. New Asia United collapsed on 3 June 2019. In late June, River Forest, the city where Wegmat was mainly located, formed a [[w:Task force|task force]] to cull the local population of deer, which would result in the government of Wegmat adopting the [[Deer and Other Species Citizenship Status Act]], which was made to ensure the protection of deer. In addition, Wegmat acquired new territories on 10 August, which included the province of [[Hilda]], named after the late dog of Wegmat's royal family. The acquisition of these territories boosted Wegmat's population to triple digits. It also switched the focus of Wegmat to the woods and being a more outdoor organization.<br />
<br />
==Bobbygrad Renaissance==<br />
{{main|NWR Conflict}}<br />
{{main|Weg-New German War}}<br />
Between September and October 2019, violence re-erupted in [[Bobbygrad]], with a group is known as the New Wegmat Republic trying to take the city of Bobbygrad, which would end with the city descending into civil war. [[File:NWR1.jpeg|200px|right|thumb|A New Wegmat soldier, armed with an Airsoft gun.]] The reputation of the NWR would decline as Wegmat took the Stevont Pass, a district located north of Downtown Bobbygrad. In addition, most citizens of the NWR defected back to Wegmat and enlisted in the [[Wegmat Armed Forces]]. For a while, Parliament struggled to find a new Minister of Defence after the second one resigned, which was resolved when the minister rejoined the country. <br />
<br />
Later on, the city Bobbygrad would vote to secede from Wegmat as the [[Empire of New Germany]], and declared war on Wegmat, which the [[Wegmat Foreign Exchange Ministry]] would ignore. This would result in northwestern [[Gliffork]] turning into a warzone and most of Wegmat's [[w:Non-lethal weapons|non-lethal]] armed forces defecting to New Germany. Another effect of the civil war would be that the culture of Wegmat's in-provinces would turn into what Wegmat's [[Cultue of Wegmat|culture]] is today. The cultural shift in Wegmat moved away from the city of Bobbygrad and into [[Paradise City]] and Thatcher Woods in general. The war would end with the [[Priory Grasslands]] being claimed by both New Germany and Wegmat. During the Winter of 2019 and 2020, Wegmat would be developing Hilda and Essef. Crating the bay project the [[Bay of Tress]] area was to be developed more. the project built a bridge connecting the Hilda Keys and recreational developments in [[National Parks of Wegmat|Hilda Highlands National Park]]<br />
<br />
==Manifest Wegstany==<br />
{{main|Paradise City General Strike}}<br />
{{main|Manifest Wegstany}}<br />
{{main|Drystone Geode Rush}}<br />
Following all the controversies surrounding Wegmat, its Prime Minister would push the country more politically left. In March 2020, Wegmat would shut down due to [[w:COVID-19|COVID-19]]; precautions included travel between the United States and the in-provinces of Wegmat being restricted (unless necessary) and face masks being required in all buildings. These precautions, among others, would result in Wegmat having 0 cases until the 1st phase of the COVID restrictions ended. In mid-May, Wegmat entered phase 2 of lockdown. <br />
<br />
In May 2020, Wegmat formed the Des Plaines Union as its third member. By mid-June, Wegmat entered Phase 3 of its COVID restrictions. Also in June, the Wegmat Territory Expansion Act of 2020 was passed by Parliament, where the Province of [[Hydrove]], the [[Belmont Territory|Indians Boundaries Territory]], and the [[Shiller Territory]] were added as Weg territory to protest potentially dangerous actions to the [[w:Des Plaines River|Des Plaines River]], which went into effect on 1 July. This was a huge addition of land to the Kingdom. These territories became known as the frontier. Wegmat had a difficult time controlling and enforcing laws in territories for almost a year.<br />
<br />

<br />
The capitalist economy was declining in Wegmat, stock shares were worthless and there was no interest in work, and economic and political stress was raised. On 26 June, workers in Wegmat joined a [[w:General strike|general strike]] in [[Paradise City]]. The protesters had demanded to dissolve the stock exchange and give ownership of the company distributed among the employees. The strike turned violent, company headquarters were destroyed by rioters. On 27 June, the ownership of almost all large corporations in Wegmat was distributed to their employees. Cole Baird supported these protests. The Founders Party changed quickly to reflect the economic views of the citizens of Wegmat. Wegmat became a socialist economy with little government intervention<br />
<br />
Between 12 July and 28 July, the Environmental Ministry of Wegmat went on an expedition to the American states of [[w:Wyoming|Wyoming]], [[w:Montana|Montana]], [[w:North Dakota|North Dakota]], [[w:South Dakota|South Dakota]] and [[w:Idaho|Idaho]]. [[Leon Montan]], who is a parliament member, [[2020 Wegmat coup d'état attempt|attempted a coup as a joke]], which resulted in Cole baird taking that as an excuse to reform the Weg political system and ratify a new constitution. The Kingdom fell and became the Federal Union. Wegmat became more federalized and autonomy in Weg provinces was easier to obtain than under the Kingdom. The new constitution was ratified in a referendum on 27 October 2020. 2 days earlier, the Treaty and Act of New German Reunification was signed, which reunited New Germany into Wegmat as an autonomous province.<br />
<br />
On 25 November, Wegmat elected the first-ever President; 6 days later, new Parliament members were sworn in, including the President. On 30 November, Wegmat celebrated 2 years of existence. On 18 February 2021, the Prime Minister mistakenly proposed an unconstitutional motion, which was later retracted. However, during a trip with the [[Wegmat Council of State|Council of State]] to Devils Hill National Park on 20 February, protests broke out. When counter-protesters arrived, the protests turned into a riot. Wegmat was prepared to start sending more people up north by the end of the snow season. With New Germany being an autonomous province Wegmat hoped to close its frontier easier with help from Bobbygrad.<br />
<br />
==Great Des Plaines Valley War==<br />
{{Main|Great Des Plaines Valley War}}<br />
[[File:GDPVW Collage.jpeg|200px|thumb|Collage of Events in the Great Des Plaines Valley War.]]<br />
There were many more independent nations in the Des Plaines Valley. The Chevalier Union and Rodentia became the alternatives to Wegmat. Edward Oakes took advantage f less powerful governments and overthrew the [[Rodentia]]n government. Edward announced the 4-hour plan in the Rodentian capital. A conscription was ordered. The militia involved in the coup quickly got Roentian SF to be obedient to the new Rodentian government. The same day, during the coup, Rodentia funded the [[Sakaki clan]] to take [[Bobbygrad]]; this began a conflict in the region. Rodentian SF and some troops who were seen as obedient to the Emporer were also sent to Bobbygrad on 6 March 2021. Wegmat was invaded by Rodentian forces on 7 March 2021, which began a spiral into heightening the Weg-Rodentian war to a major war. In a large-scale invasion by [[Philmont]] and Rodentian forces in the [[Rainbowlands]]; many nations that were a part of the [[UDCTC]] joined the war. Wegmat became completely focused on ending the war to be able to focus on new projects. Rodentia was pushed out of Wegmat. The [[Democratic Weimar Republic|Weimar]] broke away from Wegmat and joined the [[Urraca Pact]] and invaded [[Priory National Park]]. Wegmat’s rival nation, the [[Empire of Kapreburg]], joined the war as well in the summer. The Kapresh [[Battles of Whynofly|invaded]] [[Whynofly]] and captured the territory for a week. The War entered a period of little fighting until after a summit between Cole Baird and [[Jonas Rhymer]], when the Urraca Pact invaded the Weg province of [[Levare]]. This was the last moment of combat in the Des Plaines Valley. Wegmat was already sending civilian developers into the north by then, Wegmat was less worried about the war and could continue its development. Wegmat took out Philmont in [[w:New Mexico|New Mexico]] in late July. Rodentia surrendered a few days after the Weg army returned to the Des Plaines Valley. The war ended and is still controversial in the [[MicroWiki Sector]].<br />
<br />
==Closure of the Frontier==<br />
{{main|Post-war Growth}}<br />
[[File:Cole Baird’s speech at Chad Mans.jpg|150px|right|thumb|Cole B. giving a speech at the beginning of the reconstruction of the Chad Mans.]]<br />
Although the war progressed in the summer, Wegmat focused on fully developing the Weg frontier, made up of territories north of [[Hydrove]]. The main project of development was the reconstruction of [[Chad Mans National Park]], a popular jump trail for dirt bikers and mountain bikers. The trail was destroyed by the United States on the basis that it violated the local ordinance. Under a program instituted by the Prime Minister, called [[Recreational Infrastructure Project Abba]], reconstruction of the trails began in June, alongside plans for other biking trails.<br />
<br />
Wegmat also planned to begin technological research and manufacturing of goods. In the past few months, however, manufacturing goods became a keen interest of much of the human population of Wegmat. Plans for a train that would run on abandoned railroad tracks between Jaccigrad and Isadora are planned to begin by the Summer of 2022. In July, Wegmat annexed an abandoned golf practice center with the hope of hosting a golf tournament planned for August. The area, known as the Bushwood Territory, has had much of the land designated as Weg Intermicronational Stadium. The new territory quickly grew becoming the province of [[Madison]] and the city of [[Bushwood]] becoming the most populous city in Wegmat. Bushwood now is considered the cultural center of Wegmat.<br />
<br />
The Weg frontier was declared officially closed when [[North Potawatomi]] and [[Whynofy]] were upgraded from territories to provinces. Wegmat is also now considered to be entirely walkable. The Weg government finally became able to operate motor vehicles without outsourcing as Federal Employees gained Illinois driver's licenses. Wegmat opened its first hunting season of deer (only in Cenwister). This is legal due to Weg Predator Laws citing that a citizen can kill a non-citizen as long as it is another species and the meat is used. Ballots for the 2021 Presidential Election of Wegmat were issued on 5 December 2021. Vincent C. did not run again as he has not done much with Wegmat and has lost interest in the government. [[Ian Brandis]] received the endorsement of the [[Founders Party]] and won the race. He is now the President. Gubernatorial candidates were put on the federal ballot so any person within Wegmat could vote for a governor.<br />
<br />
==Post War Period==<br />
{{main|Midlothian War}}<br />
[[File:Bushwood Cleanup.png|200px|thumb|Workers in [[Bushwood]].]]<br />
Both sides of the GDPVW became quite nationalistic. Patriotism was at an all-time high in wegmat, Weimar and Kapreburg. On 22 November, a Kapresh citizen and another person committed the [[Weg Nationwide Attacks]]. Several buildings were destroyed. The attacks started after a firecracker was detonated in the Madison Capital Building in Bushwood. The [[Wegmat Authority]] arrived with fire extinguishers. While the situation was being resolved both the Hilda and Essef capital buildings were destroyed. The Kapresh citizen headed north on [[Wegmat Route 4]] while the other terrorist headed east towards [[Two Pine]]. The individual was immediately apprehended by the Wegmat Authority in Two Pine. Cole Baird issued a national lockdown while all of the Weg law enforcement headed up north to apprehend the Kapresh citizen. The [[Wegmat Special Police and Investigation]] headed through Whynofly to find [[Cape Chad]] and Interior destroyed. Weg law enforcement surrounded [[Lost Lake City]]. The terrorist targeted 2 locations in LLC, however, was arrested by the WSPI.<br />
<br />
The WSPI claimed that the attacks were based on Kapresh Nationalism. On the 3rd annual Founder's Day, Wegmat prematurely [[Midlothian War|declared war]] on [[Kapreburg]]. However, no military operations began until a month later. During this time Wegmat was still operating as if there was no war. In January 2022 the Wegmat marines traveled to Kapreburg on the [[w:metra|Metra]] and invaded [[New Kariba]]. This unfortunate led Wegmat into another occupational period. Kapreburg captured the province of Madison and a battle in Downtown Bushwood occurred. The Midlothian War ended in the second battle in Wegmat where Kapresh troops lost a battle and parts of Essef and Madison were given to Weimar. The war did not officially end as no side performed military actions on one another. Wegmat planned to invade Kapreburg, however, was never able to due to snow weather or internal problems. A summit is now planned after Wegmat dropped its state of war on 10 May 2022.<br />
<br />
==Paulina Depression==<br />
The war partially caused economic depression in the Des Plaines Valley Sector. The majority of human citizens are unemployed in Weg jobs. Some may call this a state of inactivity in micronationalism as no one wants to participate with Wegmat. The Wegmat Government is considering a campaign to reactivate the Weg economy which is where the majority of the activity in Wegmat devolves around rather than politics and government. The economic depression began before the [[2022 MOF Games]] which was hosted by Wegmat. The games entered a state of inactivity due to the only game admin experiencing mental health problems. The MOF took over the administration of the games. Northern Wegmat historically has had a choke point for trade in Northern Hydrove. If this section of the Great Wegmat Highway closes much of Northern Wegmat is cut from Federal services and supplies from southern businesses. On 12 December [[w:Canadian Pacific Railway|Canadian Pacific Railway]] began renovation work on their bridge at Canpac Crossings which closed the road below. The Framboise Tunnel at [[La Bamboise]] closed well due to severe water damage from a pipe burst. The Framboise Tunnel is the sole route for some riverboats that need to pass the Framboise Portage. The only way to travel through the Hydrove chokepoint is through the Legion Detour or via automobile and [[w:Pace (bus)|Pace bus services]] around Hydrove and Golfia. Because of the travel restrictions and the Paulina Depression activity has decreased in Northern Wegmat. This opened a "New Fronteir" because law is harder to enforce and development has reversed in the north. On 21 December 2022 James Panton was elected the as the 3rd president of Wegmat. He was sworn in on 2 January 2023 as the first non-Founder's Party president. [[Cole Baird]] remains Prime Minister despite being a socialist, countering Panton's liberal views.<br />
<br />
===Post Depression and A-Era===<br />
[[File:Wegmat_Maritime.png|200px|left|thumb|The [[Union Des Plaines|UDP]] Belle Plaine moves south full of cargo.]]<br />
The [[Paulina Depression]] came to an end in December after the annexation of [[Shipstar]], a city where three large agriculture companies operate. The Wegmat Government had chartered the economy there specifically to benefit the nation as a whole. With special taxation imposed by the province of Gliffork, a deal was made between the province and the Federal Government to collect the income. The Federal Government of Wegmat began updating its services and legality. The [[Federal Codex of Wegmat]] was published and is the largest recorded Code of Law of a micronation. Recovery from the Paulina Depression came naturally from an interest in Wegmat again. In mid-April, [[Wegmat Parliament]] had a very productive legislative session passing four acts. The largest was the [[Capitalism Act]] which re-introduced capitalism into Wegmat. Socialist policies were not inherently enforced by the Federal government ([[Irving]] and [[Hilda]] do have policies enforcing socialism). However personal finances powerful enough to pursue entrepreneurship were rare. The Capitalism Act completely loosened banking regulations, previously the [[Weg National Bank]] was the only bank allowed in Wegmat. It also founded the Federal Investing Authority which has the power to loan and grant money in the pursuit of government-sponsored venture capitalism. This type of legislation would not normally be passed, however, because the [[Founders Party]] not only lost a presidential seat but is no longer the majority in Parliament.<br />
<br />
The significant growth from the industrial center of Shipstar came to an end when the new owners of the Starship Food Company dissolved the weg registration and unrecognized the Federal Union of Wegmat. Income continued to be extracted from the kitchens until all Wegs (all were under 18) were laid off by the American registered company. Another major blow to the reputation of Wegmat happened in the supreme court case [[Caperelli v. FEM]] there was a lot of distrust in the Federal Government. One business owner was paranoid that the government would cancel their contract with the company and then broke into the Public Lands Building in [[Lost Lake City]] and threatened employees before being arrested by Wegmat Rangers. There was an outcry against the [[Wegmat Council of State]] for not administrating the post-Cicero Spenninger era well. [[Prime Minister of Wegmat]] [[Cole Baird]] resigned in early June 2023. Member of Parliament and Governor of Bushwood, [[Dylan Achterhof]] was appointed prime minister. Cole Baird remains chair of parliament but moved to [[Buckhorn View]] in the growing micronation of [[Nakoosa]]. With the former prime minister living and working in Nakoosa, foreign ties between the two nations became great. There was an ongoing civil conflict and general nuisance in Nakoosa between claims of [[w:cryptids|cryptids]] and a political group wanting to protect them. Nakoosa Armed Forces had been in a small-scale war against the paramilitary Trolli Association of Common Goals. Parliament approved a plan from the new administration in Wegmat to send a regiment to Nakoosa to help in the [[Great Cryptid War]]. Weg troops arrived on 17 June 2023 and the first raids happened on the 18th. Throughout the summer the Trolli Association of Common Goals was apprehended and service projects were completed by Weg troops in Nakoosa. Development in Wegmat had severe stagnation. The government's goal is to recruit more people to grow the economy. A new industrial area similar to Shipstar is being looked for and the [[Thatcher and Isadora Railroad]] has been postponed further due to the collapse of Shipstar.</div>Wegmathttps://micronations.wiki/index.php?title=MicroWiki:Featured_picture/Nominations&diff=1693052MicroWiki:Featured picture/Nominations2023-12-11T17:42:50Z<p>Wegmat: /* Nominations for January 2024 */</p>

'''Chad Mans National Park''' is a [[w:National Park|national park]] in the [[Provinces of Wegmat|Weg province]] of [[Whynofly]]. The park is famous for its Lump Jumps, a track of seven jumps constructed by the Wegmat National Park Agency meant for mountain bikes and motorized dirt bikes. The lump jumps were formally larger and not built by any Weg entity. During the [[Great Des Plaines Valley War]], the [[Forest Preserve District of Cook County]] destroyed the original lumps with a bulldozer and left the area in a worse condition environmentally. The lead to [[Wegmat Parliament]] passing the Recreation Act and installed the reconstruction of the Chad Mans as the top priority of [[Recreation Infrastructure Project Abba]].<br />
<br />
The Wegmat Marines Civil Regiment officially completed the lumps on 5 June 2023 and more bike features are planned to be added. Although the Chad Man had seen a much larger visitation and pride level in 2020 and 2021, the park has grown in interest following the completion. The park is considered one of the five most culturally important areas of Wegmat.<br />

The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems. Provincehood is reached when [[Wegmat Parliament]] votes to admit a new province by a petition of 5 people to amend the constitution and a Provincial Constitution submission. In the Federal Union era provinces has historically been admitted by changing from the ''de facto'' status of territory to province.<br />

==Territories==<br />
Territories are organized areas under the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal government. Although considered to be unconstitutional in the ''Federation Article'' the government holds these territories on the basis the population is too small to be democratic. Only two territories are populated. Territories have historically been predecessors to provinces and have been administered by a Federally organized commission for the territory that is administrated. Only one territorial commission exists which administers Escanaba River and Little Presque.<br />

}}<br />
The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems. Provincehood is reached when [[Wegmat Parliament]] votes to admit a new province by a petition of 5 people to amend the constitution and a Provincial Constitution submission. In the Federal Union era provinces has historically been admitted by changing from the ''de facto'' status of territory to province.<br />

The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems. Provincehood is reached when [[Wegmat Parliament]] votes to admit a new province by a petition of 5 people to amend the constitution and a Provincial Constitution submission. In the Federal Union era provinces has historically been admitted by changing from the ''de facto'' status of territory to province.<br />

The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems. Provincehood is reached when [[Wegmat Parliament]] votes to admit a new province by a petition of 5 people to amend the constitution and a Provincial Constitution submission. In the Federal Union era provinces has historically been admitted by changing from the ''de facto'' status of territory to province.<br />

==Territories==<br />
Territories are organized areas under the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal government. Although considered to be unconstitutional in the ''Federation Article'' the government holds these territories on the basis the population is too small to be democratic. Only two territories are populated. Territories have historically been predecessors to provinces and have been administered by a Federally organized commission for the territory that is administrated. Only one territorial commission exists which administers Escanaba River and Little Presque.<br />

==Territories==<br />
Territories are organized areas under the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal government. Although considered to be unconstitutional in the ''Federation Article'' the government holds these territories on the basis the population is too small to be democratic. Only two territories are populated. Territories have historically been predecessors to provinces and have been administered by a Federally organized commission for the territory that is administrated. Only one territorial commission exists which administers Escanaba River and Little Presque.<br />

The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems. Provincehood is reached when [[Wegmat Parliament]] votes to admit a new province by a petition of 5 people to amend the constitution and a Provincial Constitution submission. In the Federal Union era provinces has historically been admitted by changing from the ''de facto'' status of territory to province.<br />

==Territories==<br />
Territories are organized areas under the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal government. Although considered to be unconstitutional in the ''Federation Article'' the government holds these territories on the basis the population is too small to be democratic. Only two territories are populated. Territories have historically been predecessors to provinces and have been administered by a Federally organized commission for the territory that is administrated. Only one territorial commission exists which administers Escanaba River and Little Presque.<br />

The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems.

The '''[[Federal Union of Wegmat]]''' is a federation made up of twelve provinces, two federal districts, four organized territories, and multiple unorganized claims. The provinces and territories are organized into [[Wegmat district court|seven federal justice districts]] and twelve federal administrative regions, although these regions are for dividing offices and resources of the federal government.<br />
<br />
Prior to the [[Constitution of Wegmat|2020 constitution]] provinces were not home rule and the nation was far more unitary. Provinces were ruled by local governments usually consisting of 2 or 3 provinces. This system was abolished in [[Paradise City v. Local Government of Thatcher]] and provincial authority was defined in [[Carrol v. Wegmat Authority]].<br />
<br />
The first provinces were the North and South provinces and the first instance of modern-day provinces were [[Gliffork]] and [[Essef]].<br />
<br />
==Provinces==<br />
Provinces are similar to [[w:U.S. State|U.S. States]] in that they are governed by a [[w:State government|State government]] and have independent legislatures and court systems. Provincehood is reached when [[Wegmat Parliament]] votes to admit a new province by a petition of 5 people to amend the constitution and a Provincial Constitution submission. In the Federal Union era provinces has historically been admitted by changing from the ''de facto'' status of territory to province.<br />
