History
New Prussian wasn't always an empire. A timeline has been created by the emperor that shows when each state was created and who where the previous rulers, this timeline is fictional. When the emperor united the Kingdoms of Biberdamm and New Bavaria, the emperor decided to expand his country, so he created the Kingdom of New Saxony on 25 May 2018, which is west of New Bavaria and it is a mixture of 3 towns, and the Grand Principality of New Hanover on 3 June 2018 because he had some relatives who live north of New Bavaria. Then he created the Crown Dependency of Clinton on 2 July 2018 because he found 2 relatives who live near the Iowa-Wisconsin border. The latest edition to the empire was the Earldom of Wheatland which was founded on 8 February 2019, disestablished on 25 September 2019, then reestablished on 27 May 2021 as a town in the Kingdom of New Bavaria and is now a Viscounty. 1 June 2022, a new state was created to extend the borders of New Prussia called the Grand Duchy of New Oldenburg. In this empire, each monarch can choose their successor but they have to be within the Imperial family. New Prussia has its own religion called New Prussian Catholicism which has been established 28 September 2019. On 14 November 2021, the empire decided to create a brand new Imperial Coat of Arms that is August IV's own design with some help of a coat of arms creating website. On 21 November 2021 the New Prussian Assembly unanimously voted to take down New Prussia's website due to frustrations on creating new pages and maintaining it, the decision was approved by the Emperor. On 16 July the Assembly passed it last three Bills establishing the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Education and the Political Party Register. Also on 16 July, a new Constitution Bill was being discussed in the Assembly and was passed. The Constitution that has been passed on 16 July abolishes the New Prussian Assembly and Imperial Decree XV established the New Prussian Imperial Parliament which is based off of the British Parliament. On 1 March 2023, the Kingdom of Biberdamm is no longer a state, but now a Colony via Joint Decree X. Imperial Decree XXI established a new 5th state the Archduchy of Southwest Clinton. On 1 July, 2023 Princess Coco was chosen by the Chancellor, August Harms, to be the first ever non-human Vice Chancellor. Sadly a member of the Imperial Family passed away in November 2023, becoming the first active New Prussian citizen to pass away. On 18 November 2023, a new party was formed for politicians who have centrist ideals and beliefs. So August IV created the Moderate Party, with magenta (mixing red and blue) as their color, and the star as the symbol for the new party. On 23 August 2024, Imperial Decree XXIX (29) was signed, establishing the national police of New Prussia the New Prussian Imperial Marshals. On 24 August 2024, Imperial Decree XXX (30) was signed, establishing the middle chamber of the New Prussian Imperial Parliament, the States Assembly.
