The Evergreen Republic (E.R.), commonly known as Evergreen or less often as The Republic, is a country and sovereign state primarily located in North America, centered in the Pacific Northwest. It currently consists of 20 federated provinces and some other minor possessions. The Evergreen borders several large nations in North America, spanning several regions with many exclaves and enclaves, as well as the three Asian provinces of Bhutan, October Island, and the Maldives. With a population of nearly 269 people as of 28 March 2022, spread across 70 towns, it is one of the most influential nations in North America. The federal capital is shared between Astoria, Seattle, and Olympia, all located within the Pacific Northwest.
The Evergreen Republic is a federal semi-presidential constitutional republic with three separate branches of government, and a President as an elected head of state, with the Chancellor as a parliamentary head of government. The current President is SayerQT since 1 May 2022 and the current Chancellor is OriginalDogster since 2 March 2022. The Republic is a very influential and a continental power, and is a founding member of the Organization of American States.
Etymology
The name "Evergreen Republic" derives from the Evergreen tree, a common ideological and cultural symbol for the Pacific Northwest. During the creation of the republic, numerous names were up for consideration; such as the Pacific States of America, the Pacific Republic, Republic of Nutka, the Second Cascadian Republic, and many more. The name "Evergreen" was eventually said by SayerQT, and it was decided upon consensus by the Constitutional Convention; with the suffixes "Republic" and "Federation" being decided on later.
History
Pre-creation
On December 11th, 2018, the players RangerMK01, Banthos, Kathulos, and ThinkGeek established the Republic of Cascadia, in order to create a peaceful, democratic nation in the Pacific Northwest. With the capital being located in the town of Astoria, Oregon, Cascadia quickly expanded throughout the region, eventually controlling the entirety of the Canadian and American Pacific coastline. In June 2019, Cascadia briefly admitted the province of New York, gaining a large tract of land on the Eastern Seaboard. After the New York Riots, however, many provinces decided to declare independence, leading to Cascadia fracturing and weakening. Although many of these breakaway provinces eventually returned to Cascadia, this event shocked the population and led to the Senate deliberating before accepting new provinces in the future. In early 2020, under the Presidency of Estonian_Mapping (now EstiQT), Cascadia appeared to be restabilizing and entering into a new period of prosperity. However, due to multiple scandals and internal instability, Washington ended up seceding from the Republic, joining the Rio Grande. Due to alleged democratic backsliding and corruption within the government, the Salish Confederation was established in Wenatchee on February 9, 2020, with the goal of bringing about direct democracy in the Pacific Northwest. This ended up sparking the Cascadian Civil War which, despite the name, did not involve Cascadia directly. The Salish Confederation and Republic of Cascadia were initially hostile to each other, entering into a cold war for control of the core territory. However, due mainly to Furballen’s efforts, the two nations gradually began to reconcile. On February 20th, 2021, the Pacific Pact was established after the dissolution of the North American Pact, and on 14 February 2022, after a series of meetings between the leaders of Salish and Cascadia, both nations were dissolved, as they united to form the Evergreen Republic.
Provinces
The Evergreen Republic is a federal republic consisting of 20 federated provinces. The 15 contiguous provinces are within the Pacific Northwest of North America, mostly within the real-life areas of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Alaska and the Yukon. Keewatin is an exclave in the Hudson Bay region of Manitoba, and Greenland is centered on the northeastern point of the island bearing the same name. Three provinces are located geographically in Asia; which are October Island (off the coast Siberia), Bhutan (in the Himalayas), and the Maldives (off the coast of Sri Lanka), all of which are disconnected from each other.
