The United Kingdom of Hesminia or known as the Empire of Hesminia, is a micronation with duly declared sovereignty over specified territories situated within the w:Philippines and extraterritorial jurisdictions. In contrast to prevailing practices among micronations worldwide, Hesminia's territorial claims are founded upon legitimate property rights and titles. The kingdom's administrative divisions categorize royal family holdings as provinces, while territories under the stewardship of non-royal entities are classified as regions or vassal territories.The Sovereign State of Hesminia, initially established as the Principality of Haje in 2013, underwent a transformative period of leadership and governance. Founded by Prince Xiaen of the Panes Dynasty, the micronation experienced a brief yet pivotal reign, culminating in the transfer of power to the Jamotillo Dynasty.
Her Majesty Queen Crystal, distinguished for her exemplary character and judicious leadership, ascended to the throne with the endorsement of prominent lords and the patronage of the Baronial estates. During her tenure, the monarch's council of advisors successfully implemented constitutional reforms, transitioning the governance structure from an absolute monarchy to a constitutional monarchy.Concomitantly, the nation adopted its present appellation, the Kingdom of San Fernando, in 2014, thereby formalizing its new identity and marking a significant milestone in its development under the Jamotillo Dynasty.Following a two-year reign, w:Queen Crystal voluntarily abdicated the throne, paving the way for the ascension of King Sun Harvey and the establishment of the Pamulag Dynasty. King Sun Harvey's visionary leadership culminated in his proclamation as Emperor Sun Harvey I, unifying multiple micronations under his sovereignty and ushering in the era of the Mighty W:Empire of San Fernando.
Emperor Sun Harvey I's reign was marked by a period of unprecedented prosperity, dubbed the 'Golden Rays.' However, this era was subsequently followed by the 'Age of Dark Stone,' which ultimately led to the Emperor's abdication in 2018 due to health concerns.Consequently, the throne was restored to Prince Xiaen, marking the resurgence of the Panes Dynasty and a new chapter in the nation's history.Upon the restoration of the throne to Prince Xiaen, the Panes Dynasty resumed its rightful place in the governance of the Principality of Southern Esteria. Despite the formidable challenges inherited from predecessors, Esteria demonstrated resilience in the face of adversity, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic Through strategic adaptation and innovation, Esteria successfully navigated the complexities of the modern era, leveraging social media platforms to establish its presence within the global micronational community.The Principality's ascendance was significantly facilitated by the diplomatic acumen of His Excellency Mr. Genesis Covrera, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Curimae. This auspicious encounter yielded a series of landmark agreements, including the Union Treaty with the Republic of Scarlataria and the integration of the Principality of Yuan into the Union.
The resultant entity, Hesminia, emerged as a testament to collaborative leadership and diplomatic cooperation, earning distinction within the Philippine Micronation World community for its commitment to modernization, mutual understanding, and excellence in international relations.
The Kingdom of Hesminia has consistently demonstrated unwavering dedication to promoting unity and equality within the Philippine Micronation Community. In response to the divisive concept of categorization advocated by the Association of Micronations of the Philippines (AMPI), Hesminia aligned itself with Accande Terrie Ornindo (ATO), upholding the principles of acceptance, inclusivity, and unity.
During its tenure within ATO, the Kingdom of Hesminia played a vital role in supporting the organization's stance and values. The Kingdom's development and growth were significantly influenced by ATO, which facilitated the establishment and modernization of Hesminia.
Hesminia focused on internal revitalization, foreign relations, and promoting ATO as a beacon of inclusivity. However, due to the organization's prolonged inactivity and challenges with various member micronations, the Kingdom of Hesminia made the decision to depart from Accande Terrie Ornindo (ATO) on December 23, 2023, The Kingdom of Hesminia formally seceded from Accande Terrie Ornindo (ATO) on December 23, 2023, due to the organization's prolonged dormancy and interpersonal challenges. This decision followed a three-year affiliation marked by exploration and maturation.
Thereafter, Hesminia dedicated itself to autonomous development, fostering advancements in diverse sectors, including local culture, agriculture, literature, governance, and diplomacy. This period of self-directed progress culminated in an era of cultural enlightenment.
Hesminia's diplomatic endeavors yielded significant results, including the establishment of its inaugural Crown Dependency, the Lakanate of Venthony, under the leadership of Rechise Mapa, a steadfast ally and devoted monarchist. This alliance facilitated subsequent engagements with fellow micronations, notably Vista, Ravenia, Aquila, Cloud Empire, and Saen.
The Kingdom of Hesminia's leadership extended to the founding of the Commonwealth of Nations, a preeminent organization promoting cooperation and interconnectedness among micronations. The Commonwealth experienced unprecedented growth, with over 70 member nations joining, rendering it the largest micronational community of the 21st century.
Consequently, the Kingdom of Hesminia has emerged as a distinguished Regional Power and a leading actor in the global micronational community, recognized for its remarkable growth, diplomatic prowess, and commitment to cooperation. The country is currently a member of the Santo Niño Cooperation Union.

Etymology
The United Kingdom of Hesminia is a sovereign micronation founded through the union of the Republic of Las Scarlata and the Principality of Southern Esteria, subsequently enriched by the integration of Ravenia (now Balonia), Yuan (now Yukland), and Avaritia. The name Hesminia originates from ancient words, "Hes" signifying harmony and "Minia" denoting unity or togetherness, reflecting the kingdom's founding principles of unity, cooperation, and peaceful coexistence.
The kingdom's diverse provinces include Scarlataria (inhabited by Cadetians), Esteria (home to Panesiurs/Paneslians), Balonia (populated by Pinsalbonians), Yukland (formerly Yuan), and Avaritia (settled by Tantalosians/Avaritians). Official languages comprise Hiligaynon (Ilonggo), Kiray-a (Hiligaynon variant), Tagalog, and Capiznon.
Hesminians share a distinct cultural identity, characterized by agricultural heritage, foraging expertise, resilience, hospitality, herding, and business acumen. Vibrant traditions encompass the Luminaria Festival (summer), Festival of the Winter Moon (December), and Harvest Home (summer harvest season). The Hesminian cuisine combines farm-to-table delights, wild herb infusions, Cadetian harvest breads, Panesiur/Paneslian spice blends, and Avaritian/Tantalosian specialties.
Guided by values of unity, respect, stewardship, quality, and sustainability, Hesminians prioritize national cohesion, ancestral heritage, and environmentally conscious practices. National symbols include the Hesminian crest, coat of arms featuring founding nation elements, and the motto "Unitas et Pax" (Unity and Peace).
Indigenous to Hesminia are the Ayongs, loyal servants of the Royal Family since Lord Patrociño Pastolero. Prominent settler groups include Avaritians (renowned for carpentry, agriculture, pasteurization, and farming), Panesiurs/Paneslians (celebrated for business acumen), Pinsalbonians (known for unique cultural practices), and Tantalosians (new generations of Avaritians).
History
Principality of Haje ( 2013-2013)
Established on 20 June 2013, the Haje Principality marked its inception with the founding of its inaugural capital, Castle Cadete, situated in San Fernando, thereafter renamed Xenon and subsequently Xeneria. Governed by the distinguished House of Panes, a preeminent family, the principality operated as a monarchical entity.
Under the leadership of Prince Xin Pane, noted for his strong connection to nature, the nascent state grappled with the stabilization of colonial territories. During his reign, the local population experienced an unparalleled enrichment of cultural heritage. The principality's demographic composition, predominantly male, led to its colloquial designation, while officially it was recognized as Malerium, with the Xia Aristocracy firmly entrenched.
The War of the Colonial Folly precipitated the Kingdom of Avalem's invasion of the Hajer Colonies, a pivotal event in the region's history. Here's the updated text:
War of the Colonial Folly (2013-2014)
The conflict led to a strategic alliance between the Principality of Haje and the Kingdom of Patoria, facilitated by King Patrick of Patilium, Prince Xiaen of Haje, and Chieftain Yuan of Yin, Prince Xiaen's maternal cousin. However, most Patorians withdrew from the alliance in 2014, following Prince Yuan's departure due to familial obligations, except for East Patoria, which became the region of Esteria.
Consequences of Non-Participation in Colonial Expansion
Haje's decision not to engage in the colonial race in Artesia, Galaxius, Xina, and Maldony weakened its status as a regional power, allowing rivals like the Kingdom of Las Scarlata and the Kingdom of Tantalus to gain ascendancy.
Month of Revolutions and Rise of Nationalism
The Month of Revolutions in the Kingdom of Tantalus inspired discontented monarchies, including Haje. Five barons, dissatisfied with Prince Xiaen's rule, exploited the loss of five colonial territories to the Kingdom of Avalem, fostering Baron's nationalism and a desire for self-governance.
Barron's Coup of Winter Solstice (December 22, 2013)
A pivotal event in Haje's history, the Barron's Coup saw five influential barons rebel against Prince Xiaen's authority, leading to his removal from power. The rebellious barons pledged allegiance to Lady Crystal, Prince Xiaen's paternal cousin, who ascended to the throne, marking the end of absolute monarchy and signaling a transition towards a more unconventional form of governance.
Family Ties and Succession
Notably, Prince Xiaen's family connections played a significant role in these events. Chieftain Yuan, his maternal cousin, had initially allied with him, while Lady Crystal, his paternal cousin, ultimately succeeded him. This complex web of familial relationships underscores the intricate dynamics of Haje's noble lineage.
Aftermath and Repercussions
The Barron's Coup weakened the government, as the barons, now the sole officials of the Principality, struggled to establish a new order. Lady Crystal's ascension initiated a period of transformation, as Haje navigated uncharted waters in its governance and political landscape.

Five Months of Anarchy
Following the abdication of Her Majesty Queen Crystal on April 20, 2015, and her subsequent departure from the mainland of San Fernando on April 21, 2015, the Constitutional Court faced uncertainty regarding succession. Amidst this vacuum, five former Barons controversially proclaimed themselves potential heirs, sparking a power struggle.
In response to the escalating crisis, government officials intervened to restore stability within the Kingdom of San Fernando. However, the situation spiraled into anarchy, prompting court members to relinquish their posts and establish independent nations. This tumultuous period persisted for five months.
On May 1, 2015, Palot, Arbin, and Tata of Ethan signed the Agreement of Angelican Triumph, temporarily establishing unrestricted freedom within the kingdom for five months. This interim measure allowed for the unfettered exercise of individual liberties, pending a definitive resolution.
During this period, micronations emerged, including:

Principality of Southern Esteria ( 2018-2020)
Here's the revised paragraph:
The Principality of Southern Esteria, under Prince Xiaen's visionary leadership, marked the triumphant return of the Panes Dynasty. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Esteria navigated unprecedented challenges, striving to revive its traditional micronational heritage and adapt to modern technologies. Esteria's emergence into the Philippine Micronation Community was facilitated by its discovery by Kingdom of Curimae's Prime Minister, Genesis Covrera. Subsequent union treaties with Republic of Scarlataria and Principality of Yuan gave birth to Hesminia.
Here's the formal and extended paragraph:
The Principality of Southern Esteria experienced a period of gradual development from 2018 to 2020, characterized by deliberate emphasis on internal growth and self-sufficiency.

The Shifting Sands of Power: A History of Hesminian Government
The story of Hesminia is one of dramatic shifts in power, from absolute monarchy to constitutional rule, then to anarchy, and finally, back to a more complex form of imperial authority. Its history is a tapestry woven with threads of ambition, rebellion, and the enduring quest for stability.
The Dawn of the Principality (2013)
On June 20, 2013, Prince Xiaen declared the Principality of Haje, establishing an absolute monarchy with himself as the sole ruler. The Court De Royale, a centralized court system, dictated all aspects of governance. The nobility, largely comprised of Barons, held significant influence during this initial phase. However, this era of absolute rule proved short-lived. The inherent instability of unchecked power led to the Baron's Coup of the Winter Solstice, effectively ending Prince Xiaen's reign within the first year.
The Constitutional Interlude (2014-2015)
The five Barons who orchestrated the coup—Lord Palot, Kenneth, Romel, Liyan, and Tata—installed Lady Crystal, the Prince's cousin, as the new monarch. This marked a significant transition to a constitutional monarchy, a system largely uncharted territory for the nascent nation. The "Constitution of the People/Constitution of the Barons," signed on January 2, 2014, enshrined this change. The Arms of the Barons, a symbolic declaration of independence from absolute rule, cemented this shift.
This constitution attempted to balance the power of the monarch with that of a newly formed constitutional assembly. The monarch became a largely ceremonial figurehead, with real political power vested in the assembly and, importantly, in a Prime Minister selected from among the Barons. The government was structured into three houses: the House of Makawa (representing the common people), the House of Constitution (the executive, legislative, and judicial branches), and the House of Royal (where the monarch could veto legislation, though this power was often checked by the House of Constitution). The old Haje titles, including those of the Barons, were abolished.
The Year of Anarchy (2015)
Queen Crystal's abdication in April 2015 plunged the nation into chaos. The five former Barons vied for power, creating a vacuum of leadership. This power struggle prompted the collapse of the constitutional government, leading to a five-month period of anarchy. The "Agreement of Angelican Triumph," signed by Arbin, Palot, and Tata on May 1st, temporarily suspended all laws, creating a period of unrestricted freedom within designated areas (Adeline Forest and Yuan Glade). This unprecedented period served as a temporary measure until a new order could be established.
The Rise of the Empire (2015-2018)
The Mahogany Convention and subsequent Meeting of Courts in September 2015 resulted in the partition of the former kingdom into eight independent nations: the Kingdom of Fernando, Kingdom of Las Scarlata, Kingdom of San Martin, Principality of Yuan, Dragon State, Kingdom of Avalem, Kingdom of Avaritia, and the Chiefdom of Dalas.
Prince Xiaen, regaining prominence, invited Sun Harvey to serve as a temporary Emperor for four years. This collaboration led to the creation of the "Basic Law of the Crown," which established the Empire of San Fernando. This new legal framework emphasized freedom of religion, an egalitarian social system, and the restoration of absolute monarchical power, safeguarded by an oath of allegiance. The law also included provisions for human rights, a Royal Court, and severe penalties for coups.
The Principality of Southern Esteria and the Return of Xiaen (2018-2022)
Following Emperor Sun Harvey's abdication in 2018 due to health issues, and the subsequent collapse of the Empire's provinces ("The Great Collapse"), Prince Xiaen established the Principality of Southern Esteria, the sole surviving entity from the former empire. The "1247 Basic Law" replaced the Basic Law of the Crown, focusing on restoring ancient traditions, improving governance, preserving cultural heritage, and upholding human rights.
The United Kingdom and Empire of Hesminia (2022-Present)
In 2022, the Principality of Southern Esteria and the Republic of Las Scarlata united, forming the United Kingdom of Hesminia under the "United Basic Law." This established an absolute diarchy, with joint rule by the leaders of both nations. Xenon became the capital, and Las Scarlata transitioned from a republic to an absolute monarchy. The government was structured into three houses: the House of Folk (the people), the House of Nobility (regional rulers and nobles), and the Royal Court.
The establishment of the second Empire of Hesminia in 2024 led to the creation of the "Imperial Code 2024," a comprehensive legal framework outlining imperial authority, the Imperial Parliament, the legislative and judiciary departments, executive authority, national territory, a bill of rights, and provisions for future amendments. Emperor Xiaen I, once again at the helm, solidified his absolute authority in this new era.

Provinces
- Xeniria (Capital Province): The Royal Capital Province of Xeneria is the capital and the administrative heart of the monarchy. It is the political, economic, and cultural center of the country.The capital is recognized by the grand government buildings like the Cadete Palace, the Iron Store, Pink Walls, and the Ancestral Red Gate. It houses many prestigious books that were kept by the royal family for generations. However, it is not the idyllic paradise many make it out to be, as evidenced by its strict policy against outsiders due to multiple thievery events.But, in every last way, and to the most minute of details, it mimics Xeneria as a whole. It is a fitting capital for the nation, and truly the pride of all People.
As the seat of government for the highly centralized Empire of Hesminia and the residential area of the Royal family, it is obviously a vital region for the nation; indeed, its critical nature is epitomized in its position as the heart of Hesminia. Commanding immense strategic value, control of the city effectively translates to control of the state, as was made brutally clear during the Coup of Winter Solstice and Civil War.
While Xeneria boasts huge Economic support for the royal family and the lands under the royal family's private property, it comes at great cost; the Region is plagued by its dark history and hidden from the public. The loss of the region would be catastrophic for any government, and it is in the royal family's best interest to keep a grip on the capital firm.
Province of Esteria is known in four things. The famous sacred forest, the shrines, the garden of Firecracker flowers the national flower of the nation and the Crusandran animal cemetery. While most of Esterian areas boasts of a forest culture, the area of Eritia is darest to contrast that with its emphasis on wildlife, foraging, and nature. The famous Esterian Poem's are known to be one of the best poems in the province.The old Capital of the Principality of Southern Esteria the Aetria centre has landmarks from the Empirical era. Aetria are more lively compared to other provinces but it has a large portion of Firecracker flowers in the Empire that brought seeds by birds from farthest land.
Province of Yukland: Yuan the white house capital of the previous nation of Principality of Yuan. It is famous for the Brown Pond, which hold's the waters from mountain areas during rainfall and keeping the area for plantation of river spinach or known locally as Kamoting dahon it serves as a ingredients to many local dishes in the area. Thanks to the irrigation system program of Emperor Xiaen which protect's many Province's during rainfall water from coming down the Avalem hills, the pond is always has a very medium water level during rainfall enough to fill a swimming pool. However the province is also home to a dark past of the Royal family of Yuan relocating their own family away from the area. The area of Napoli, Yukland is where the Brown Pond was dacurrently stand today is said to have been a Anarchist camp during the time of the five month of Anarchy. In order Napoli to be a thriving Provinces the royal family members from Principality of Hillside resides in Yukland to pursue business opportunities in the area but it only last 3 years after the family left the Province and returned to Hillside to establish their very own home. Certain rumours still circulate about the secret society that oppress the Kingdom of San Fernando during the reign of Queen Crystal that happened here which nicknaming the province as Secretive Province of the West by the previous followers of the Downing Order.
Province of Scarlataria Regional area the Heaven Palace barely gained Regional Capital status in 2022. Mainly due to the low capabilities to handle its environmental areas in comparison to other smaller regions. If the Province has anybody to thank it is the tourists who often visit the famous area of the Bayot's Computer Shop site at the edge of the province itself. It provides the locals great economic opportunity. Many used their Peso-net wifi and usage of computer property to make a lot of money. The Province is also very special because it can see the support of internet connections to the Provinces of Avaritia, Esteria, Yukland, and Xeneria the capital of the Empire, and its exemption that can provide that except for Central Forest of Adeline. Many don't like to take a walk in the hazardous region of the area but very much enjoy the scenic view of the Raven Hills for relaxation. Some locals have been more vocal about the shift in the tradition and life in the world of the internet, but that doesn't change the fact that without its business, this Province would be very much lost
Province of Avaritia: In the Province of Avaritia, the Province Capital of Avaritia the Tantalusini at the border to the old territories of Avalem at the South border.
