Alberta is a nation in Western Canada. It was founded on 21 August 2020 by xGoat in the city of Edmonton. From 21 August 2020 to 17 July 2021 it was a province of the Salish Confederation. The Prime Minister (formerly known as Premier) is WeirdGamerAidan. The Governor General, the ceremonial head of state, has been Fortis_Ipsum for the entirety of Alberta's existence.

== 🧾'''History''' ==

On April 16, 2020, xGoat recreated the City of Strathcona on the ruins of the [[Cascadia|Cascadian]] town of the same name. The city was renamed to Edmonton shortly afterward, although the name lives on in the inner-city neighbourhood of Old Strathcona. Quickly, xGoat brought Edmonton into the [[Salish Confederation]]. The early days of Alberta were punctuated by attacks, predominantly led by BonZZil of Washington.

xGoat rose to power in the [[Salish Confederation]] in June 2020 and was elected Chancellor. He presided over a tumultuous term, facing several foreign relations challenges. xGoat elected not to seek reelection, and focused on Edmonton instead; the city's population doubled in the following month. Fellow Albertan Jester_BBX won the Chancellory instead. It was around this time that the ''Alberta Independence Movement'' emerged, spearheaded by xGoat and Fortis_Ipsum. On August 21, 2020, they successfully amassed the gold necessary to form Alberta as a canton of the [[Salish Confederation]].

Albertans continued to hold positions of power in the [[Salish Confederation]]; Jester_BBX would win three elections as an Albertan. The Alberta Armed Forces also contributed meaningfully in conflicts such as the Salish-[[California (current)|California]] War, and launched several successful guerilla attacks on [[Cascadia|Cascadian]] forces.

On April 26th, 2021, Albertan forces were centrally involved in one of the worst acts of war to ever strike Western Canada. A joint Albertan-[[Salish Confederation]] force led by xGoat and xK1 lavacasted the [[Cascadia|Cascadian]] city of [[Grande Prairie]]. The city had been founded within Albertan borders, and negotiations with representatives from municipal and federal governments had proved unproductive. The town was lavacast in a resounding military victory for the Alberta Armed Forces. Cascadian reaction was heavily negative, and for a while it appeared that the two nations would enter a state of open conflict; however, cooler minds prevailed, and Grande Prairie later joined Alberta. [<nowiki/>[[Grande Prairie Incident|More Information]]]

Alberta separated from the [[Salish Confederation]] on July 13, 2021, over deep disagreements between provincial representatives and the administration of SayerQT on foreign policy with regard to handling of conflicts with [[Québec]] over [[Acadia|Acadia's]] accession to the Confederation. Despite an initially acrimonious break-up, Alberta has largely remained on cordial terms with the [[Salish Confederation]] and their successor, the [[Evergreen Republic]].

Post-independence, the nation has largely followed an insular, neutral foreign policy, declining to involve itself in conflicts, mega-nations, or alliances. Most efforts have been dedicated towards internal projects such as iceroads, infrastructure, and landmark buildings, although the nation has undergone a recent period of inactivity.

On February 24, 2022, the Legislative Assembly of Alberta voted to transfer governmental power to the ''Alberta Cabinet'', formed of five high-ranking government officials, establishing a temporary authoritarian government and breaking an impressive one-and-a-half-year-long run of elections. The intention is to return to a democratic form of government once the population grows to a size at which elections and democratic activity can be conducted meaningfully.
