Amberiana, officially the Republic of Amberiana, was a micronation located in Toledo, Ohio, in North America. Amberiana was founded on 13 March 2023, by President Amber, and was dissolved on 27 April 2023.
History
The Republic of Amberiana had quite a bit of history, despite the nation's relatively young age. The area in which most of Amberiana resided in also has a considerable amount of history.
Amberiana had been through many reformations, with the republic being the 5th instance of Amberiana.
The Unholy City of Amberiana was the first attempt at micronationalism by the president, being founded on the 23rd of June, 2022. This nation was founded with 3 policies in mind. The first, and the whole reason why the nation collapsed, being that religion was not allowed under any circumstances. Religion could not be penalized, but you could not be a citizen if you were religious. This caused issues for obvious reasons, and eventually President Amber saw the error in this. She would eventually choose to dissolve the unholy city, and think more about what she wanted to do in terms of micronationalism.
The Kingdom of Amberiana was the second attempt by President Amber at micronationalism. This quickly failed, as she had put no thought or effort into the kingdom. This kept the nation from growing. Amber eventually felt as though micronationalism was pointless, and dissolved the kingdom.
Within the next few days after the Kingdom of Amberiana collapsed, Amber was telling her former ally, Christopher P. of Cristoria, how hard she felt micronationalism was. Hearing about Amber's hardships with her former micronations, Christopher gave her some tips, and some encouragement. This inspired her to form the Empire of Amberiana. The empire was short lived, however. This was due to some emotional hardships and mental instability in Amber's life, which caused her to spiral out of control and dissolve her nation.
7 days after the fall of the empire, Amber wanted to try again, so she did. This next attempt was "going to be her last" according to a conversation between her and the leader of Cristoria. The next attempt at micronationalism was the Second Empire of Amberiana. After the founding of the second empire, Amber promised herself that she would involve herself more in micronationalism, which she did. In the course of the next few months, she joined Syndicate Nations of Prosperity (SNOP) and participated in the Second War on Gorthalism and Operation Blazing Glory. Though the Second War on Gorthalism ended in a draw, with a treaty being signed between the two sides of the war, the empress never signed the treaty, as she was never given a chance to. This means that, because of the lack of signature by the empress, the Second Empire of Amberiana was still at war with Gorthia. This war still came to a conclusive end though, as the second empire eventually fell, and a new nation was formed.
However, despite the success of the second empire, Amber felt as though monarchism no longer fell under her ideas. This, as well as seeing the decrease of monarchies in micronationalism, influenced her to go from being a monarchy to being a democracy. This democracy, founded on the 13th of March, 2023, was called the Republic of Amberiana. With the republic having been fairly new, it had very little history. The republic would go on to dissolve just over a month after its foundation.
Territories
The Republic of Amberiana had four districts. Those districts were Amberiana City, New Lambertville, District of Luna, and Whitetrail.
Amberiana City was the first district to be admitted into Amberiana, and was admitted during the time of the unholy city. The name was originally just "Amberiana" until it was changed during the time of the second empire. This change was made to reduce confusion on civil and government documents, as Amberiana was no longer the only district in the nation.
New Lambertville was the second district to be admitted into Amberiana, and was admitted during the time of the empire. New Lambertville was the first district to have a capital, and was also the first to have territory in both Michigan and Ohio. This, however, was soon made redundant, as every district in Amberiana had at least some territory in Michigan and Ohio by the time of the collapse of Amberiana.
District of Luna, or Luna for short, was the third district to be admitted into Amberiana, and was admitted during the time of the republic. Luna was the largest district, and was the district with the most sea access and water. Luna was created for the purpose of giving Amberiana more access to lake Erie, while also not pushing farther into Toledo to get to the Maumee River, as a majority of this land had been claimed already. It was named after a location in the territory, called "Luna Pier."
Whitetrail was the fourth district to be admitted into Amberiana, and was admitted during the time of the republic. Whitetrail was created for the purpose of closing the gap between Luna and New Lambertville. Before the establishment of Whitetrail, New Lambertville was an enclave surrounded by Michigan and Ohio, and was separate from the rest of Amberiana.

Capital City
The capital of Amberiana, Amberiana City, contained most of the government buildings in the nation. It was also the first city in Amberiana. For 4 months after the founding of the nation, it was the only city in Amberiana. This was until New Lambertville was founded.
This capital city had been the capital of every previous Amberianan nation. The name has been changed once, from Amberiana to Amberiana City. This change was made to avoid confusion on both government and civil documents after it was no longer the only district in Amberiana that was getting attention from the government.

The national animal of Amberiana was the American House Cat. This was due to the large population of cats in Amberiana City. There were 2 presidential cats, Feenie, and Toast. But there were dozens of cats in the capital city.

Flag of Amberiana
