History
The Republic of Vineland is the successor state to the United Empire of South Vineland, which in turn was the successor state to the Republic of South-West Vineland.
The UESV was founded on September 27, 2021, by Emperor Adam I. The first constitution was written and finished on October 1. The first state of the new empire was Pillowland. The nation gained more states, eventually ending up with 5 states. The UESV applied to join the League of Independent Nations in November of that year. The nation was accepted that month, but there was some confusion as due to some incompetency in the government, the mistake was only discovered months later when the UESV applied again because the government was unaware of the situation.[1]
After the so-called 'LIN Membership Debacle', the UESV went through a period of reform. All states except Pillowland were expelled and a new constitution was written. The Creek Empiric Dependency was added. It also signed Treaties of Mutual Recognition with the Nexan Republic, the Kingdom of Libertas, the Hellenistic Empire of Cimbrun, and the Free Nation of New Athens.
In response to the Russo-Ukrainian war, the UESV banned Russian imports in the nation.
In April 2022, a Constitutional convention was convened. On April 12, it concluded and a new, democratic Republic of Vineland was declared with a new constitution. It is still officially the same nation, just with a new constitution and a new name. It remained in all of its current treaties and organizations.
