Friesland is a town in the low-countries, and is a town under the direct control of Saxony and the Saxonic Empire. It borders Amsterdam, Atlantis, Bremen, Frankmark and Denmark. It holds land in West-Frisia, Noord-Holland, East-Frisia and Emden; it is currently the best town ever to exist on EarthMC (so far).
History
Waddenzee
On the twelfth of August, PastelAnt387850 created the town of Waddenzee and made himself the Serene Duke. He joined Britain briefly, but eventually joined Saxony after the king converted. The town was only about six claims in the beginning and struggled to find members.
Formation
After the collapse of Old Frisia on the 29th of September, the scramble for the land began and the mayor of Waddenzee, PastelAnt387850, was bestowed gold to start claiming it eastwards- and the West Frisian islands quickly succumbed. MapleVK of Denmark sent an ultimatum not to expand further, but you should never listen to British people. Though British troops blocked the claim bridge to Westergoa, Pastel was agile enough to claim fast enough without being hurt. Despite blocks and attacks from Maple and the King of Indonesia, Pastel managed to claim most of West Frisia at about 2:00 AM on the 30th.
The next day, the Danish were finally blocked off by claims and Friesland quickly came under control of PastelAnt- who proclaimed himself Margrave: defender of the german border. Though the borders weren't fully restored, the historical regions of Friesland, Groningen, Emsigerland, East Frisian Islands and Federgo were under control and deemed a united town.
Capture of Drenthe
Drenthe was captured by Megali's France in early 2022 and was made the town of Groningen, as a front against the Europa Pact and a bid to enforce Britain's claim on the area due to a short-lived occupation of the old Frisian town in 2020.
However, after Slyprince's alts were banned, the Angevin Empire was disbanded and Megali's France was captured by the Francians, the town passed into Swiss hands in late February.
Because the alt mayor was no longer allowed to log-on, the town fell into inactivity and eventually ruin. With the Swiss king's approval, Friesland peacefully claimed the land on the 5th of March 2022- a day that became a town holiday.
Culture
The main language is in fact Waddenish, the common tongue originating from the Republic of Waddenzee (modern day Westflinge). Frisian isn't really spoken amongst the population, and you're seen as of noble blood or that you have a rich merchant father if you speak it. Low-Saxon is spoken around Emsigerland and lower parts of Westergoa, and Hochdeutsch is taught in schools.
The population is majority Shrekist, with a Josephinist minority. The religion is protected by the archbishop to highlight the tolerance of it in the new denomination.
The Frisian culture remains dominant, while the Dutch one slowly dies out. A Waddenish delicacy, Saarbrid (Raw Chicken) was introduced and remains a thing for the tourists. We don't actually eat that stuff, it's nasty.
