The name "Grebna" comes from a tree in the state Grebna called 'Grebnarche' which to this day stays there, Vonerebna is the main army of the country, and in their honor the Capital state is named after them, the name Vonerebna comes from the Grebnar Serbian slang "Vojneredna" which means "The one removing the war" .
Flag

The black is a symbol of the Serbian Black panthers, who are a part of the army, the white symbolises peace, and the Blue (used to) symbolise the Sea which Grebna has access to. Now, it symbolises the Vonerebna lake in Vtyok, the largest in the country.
History
The very first Grebnar revolution dates back to 1867, when a group of then Bulgarians under slavery in the Ottoman Empire tried to revolt, but where put down near the territories of today's Lozebna, however since this was so long ago the evidence that this is Grebnar has been long lost, so modern Grebna and Vonerebna history dates back to 2020 when the country was called U.B.S.R (union of the bulgarian socialist republics) the country fell apart due to an unorganised military lead by a very unorganized leader, later the country lead a revolution by Boil Stefanov on 26 April 2021, and sucsessfuly won Grebna. and Vonerebna on 30 April 2021, the next day, the declaration of Independence was signed, marking the start of the country [Important dates, 26 April 30 April 1 May] On the 5th of September 2023, devastating floods on the South Black Sea coast affected the Grebnar territories of Grebna and Nestinaria. The floods were caused because of heavy rains in the area, Grebna was not so affected however Nestinaria was almost completely ruined, "Mud eveywhere, bikes and cars in the swimming pools, some cars were flipped upside down, others were in the sea. Vityok has already provided Nestinaria with the supplies to help with the damage" Said the president Boil Stefanov during a speech in the Grendarian presidential residence. As of November 2023, Nestinaria has fully recovered and is looking forward to a bright future.

As of December 2023 the Government and Parliament hold no power outside court and local land disputes, due to sanctions placed by the President regarding the Vityok Revolution. "I will not tolerate a government, considered democratic that does not follow the needs and wishes of it's citizens, soldiers and workers. Even after the sanctions end on January 7th next year, i will make sure to have the government in Vityok hold as little power as possible, therefore the army shall be under control of the Presidential palace, any budget cuts or spending ideas shall be approved by me or Mr. Sharkov. The government has shown that it cannot be trusted, and that is something i do not want in our country. Long live Vonerebna!"- Boil Stefanov in the annual yearly meeting of the Presidential palace.
