History
Rote Berge
After learning about micronations, the founder, Ethan H., created the Kingdom of Trium Urbium located in Tri-Cities, TN. After a little while, Ethan realized the name sucked and renamed the country to Rote Berge, Red Mountains in German. He would never get anyone else to actually join his micronation so it lied inactive for basically its entire existence.
Early republic
After Rote Berge's inactivity, Ethan reformed the nation in a parliamentary republic, with himself as Prime Minister and his father as President. For the first few months they would be active, but then Felsenia would fall into inactivity, and on the first of December 2023, the Inactivity Clause of the Constitution would be invoked from 1 December 2023 to 1 January 2024.
