Etymology
The etymology is unknown, because the original founders have moved and lost interest in participating. The name is a direct translation from Estonian.
History
The Republic actually started as a parliamentary monarchy, but after the leader role was given to a new member, the form of government changed to republic. At its peak, the member count was 15-20, but after the Great Peace, the member count dropped to 3-5.
Geography
The Republic was located in the territories of Estonia, specifically in the northern county. It once expanded to the eastern counties, but after the Great Peace, the Republic surrendered the lands and continued in the north. The micronation did not have a capital, because it was based in a location, where a capital would be useless.
