History
Monarch Period (10/4 - 10/5/2022)
The nation started after Ruby Specht, the founder and current president of Schpecktenia, was watching several videos about micronations, most notably Molossia. She founded the Kingdom of Schpecktenia. A design for a flag was made, and Schpecktenian Marks were starting to be created.
Grand Empire Era (10/5 - 11/22/2022)
After some thought, Ruby I decided that a monarchy wouldn't work, so the nation became the Grand Empire of Schpecktenia. Schpecktenia's new ideology was to control as much land as possible. Ruby I planned on convincing her neighbors to join Schpecktenia. On another note, Ruby I started developing a hatred for the Republic of Fort Woodchuck, a former micronation claimed the land Schpecktenia resided in. On top of that, the nation was socialist, making Ruby I even more aggressive towards the innocent nation. Two months into the foundation of the nation, Ruby I received untimely criticism.
Dark Times (11/22/2022 - 1/16/2023)
The Dark Times was a period of time that nothing got done with the nation. The events leading to this era used to be known to the general public, but now are being hidden from citizens.
