=== '''Conflict with Caesariensis''' === | |||
On May 20, 2021, Caesariensis planted a town over the agreed border with Spain called Chercell. Negotiations started with [[Mzak]] proposing a new border, but he later deleted all of his messages and left the group chat. Around a week later the Spanish started [[Battle(s) of Cherchell|daily raids]] on the town of Cherchell and planted 2 towns in Caesariensis's territory. The Spanish regularely received help from unknown pvpers and soldiers from the viceroyalties, mainly from Colombia. However, as Mzak stopped talking everywhere Caesariensis started to slowly die out with Mzak even quitting. This lead Chercell to make it's own nation called Algeria. It was quickly found out that the nation of Algeria was funded by Nubia, a nation that had been backing up the town of Cherchell against Spain's raids. This worsened Spanish-Nubian relations as Nubia would now have directly invaded Spanish lands. | |||

Spain, alongside the Europa Pact, voted to declare war on France after its refusal to kick towns in Austria, Spain, and the GRE, officially breaking their border agreements. One of the border violating towns was in the Pyrenees.

== '''Geography''' == | |||
The nation of Spain, located in southern Europe, consists out of the Iberian peninsula, the [[Baleares|Balearic]] and Canary islands, and Morocco. It borders with France to the north, as well as The Netherlands and Germany in it's Dutch territories. Spain is the third largest nation in Europe and the world in terms of chunks, behind [[SPQR]] and [[Britain]]. The nation has 42 towns and is surrounded by the Mediterranean sea and the Atlantic ocean. | |||
Mainland Spain is a mountainous country, dominated by high plateaus and mountain chains all over the Iberian peninsula. That makes the city of Madrid one of the highest laying capital cities in all of Europe. Spain's biome is mostly a desert biome, with dry grass and sand forming the landscape. In the greener northern Spain is a forest biome, consisting out of grass and mountains. Spain's southern Moroccan coasts have a similar biome to the mainland one, but that quickly changes once entering the dry sahara desert. | |||
The South American viceroyalties, Angola, and Guinea mostly have jungle, mediterranean, and desert biomes. La Plata's west coast is also mostly covered with high mountains. | |||

Spain, officially the Spanish Empire (Spanish: Imperio Español), is a country in Southwestern Europe located on the Iberian peninsula. It is constituted as a monarchy led by King 32Pengun, with the capital being Madrid. Spain borders with France to the north, as well as The Netherlands and Austria in its Dutch territories. In Morocco it borders with Carthage. In the viceroyalties of South America it borders the Brazilian Republic and Cuba. Regarding the Viceroyalty of Angola, it borders Acadia and Nubia.
History
Foundation
The nation of Spain was planned to have been founded a week after Terra Nova's release, but many of the main members having to deal with exams IRL delayed it until September 16, 2018. Everything was going well until the 18th of November 2018, when Zqppy came back and was made the new King of Spain. However, he didn't have the same hype he had in July 2017 when he made Spain on EMC classic, so he resigned, giving up his throne to EchoOcelot.
The first collapse
This began the period referred to in Spanish history as the first collapse, in which Spain totally collapsed due to EchoOcelot refusing to accept Spain’s demand to resign. After rebellions on the 22nd of November, EchoOcelot moved the capital to The Hague and renamed the country to the Netherlands, making the Spanish cities rebel and begin gathering gold.
The saving took up to 15 days, because of only a few, mainly NSGamer_, IronFerreumCubum, and Pulpo_Pol being able to get online and gather gold. However, on December 5 2018, this effort was justified despite all the trouble. The new country of Spain was made, this time under the administration of NSGamer_, who had previously ruled over Spain in Classic until May/June 2018.
Relations
On the week of Resurrection, as Spaniards call the week in which Spain was founded again, the Spanish government established relations with France. The government had also been aiding the Byzantines against the Ottoman Turks but remained neutral in most ongoing conflicts.
Spain suffered some changes, with the peaceful independence of the Philippines and the incorporation of Florida. The Spanish Army fought the Battle of Flanders against Jevil and managed to get him to retreat, at the cost of a fallen soldier.
The Spanish triumphed over locals and Echo's Netherlands at the Low Countries, managing to own Flanders, Wallonia, Utrecht, and the last of these, Leeuwarden, which was bought for 32 gold.
Colonization and a new king
On December 6, 2018, king NSGamer_ abdicated and traveled to the Caribbean to make the Spanish Antilles, a young yet promising colony. Another overseas kingdom, Perú, was going to be created soon, but that never happened. Ferreo I was appointed as the new King of Spain and the capital was moved to Cadiz.
The second collapse
Since the new king came, Spain starting declining with all the mayors going inactive and tons of towns falling. NSGamer_ even quit causing the Spanish Antilles to fall. Spain quickly turned into a dead nation with just a few small towns across the peninsula and an inactive king.
Aragon
The big city of Perpignan led by 32Pengun started the nation of Aragon in eastern Iberia. It took control over multiple cities of Spain, such as New Madrid, Valencia, and the Balearics islands in a short amount of time. New cities were started by Aragon such as Zaragoza, Pamiers and La Marina, to strengthen it's grip over Eastern Spain. Aragon also grew closer with Portugal as 32Pengun and iDa3m0n became better friends over time and both fought against Spain.
Days later, the nation of Spain was sold by Ferreo I to Zqppy and was moved to Italy. Aragon took this as a chance to grow and invited all leftover Spanish towns promising a new and stronger Spain. Many towns accepted and Aragon was named to Hispania, which was then later quickly named to Spain when the name became available. Castellon became the new capital, which is known as Madrid today.
Revival
The new Spain slowly started growing due to new cities being planted all across it. It started the expansion around the globe and into Morocco and also started a defensive pact with the GRE and France known as The Triumvirate aiming to stand stronger together. Spain started to become a relevant and decent European nation.
Iberian unification
On the 3rd of November, 2019, a Portuguese-owned town in Galicia left Spain for Portugal, officially breaking the border agreement between the two nations. Spain ultimately demanded Portugal to remove the town. Portugal didn't cede, and on November 6 Spain declared war, beginning The Iberian War. Shortly after the declaration enemies of Spain like Britain and the German Empire announced their support for Portugal, with Portugal receiving military support mainly from Britain. During this war, Spain also united with the rebel nation of Castile after it was sold to them. Since then, most Portuguese players were banned for doxxing. It was later found out they also duplicated gold to win the war and collaborated with alts. These bans secured an easy victory for Spain, but the war is still ongoing as some Portuguese players refuse to surrender.

Spain and France joined this pact and it was officially formed on January 3, 2020. With that said, Spain declared war on all rebel nations of the other countries. On October 27 Britain left the pact as it saw the pact as useless and annoying. Since then the pact went very inactive and was later reformed into Europa Pact.
Europa Pact

Hispanic unification

Conflict with Caesariensis
On May 20, 2021, Caesariensis planted a town over the agreed border with Spain called Chercell. Negotiations started with Mzak proposing a new border, but he later deleted all of his messages and left the group chat. Around a week later the Spanish started daily raids on the town of Cherchell and planted 2 towns in Caesariensis's territory. The Spanish regularely received help from unknown pvpers and soldiers from the viceroyalties, mainly from Colombia. However, as Mzak stopped talking everywhere Caesariensis started to slowly die out with Mzak even quitting. This lead Chercell to make it's own nation called Algeria. It was quickly found out that the nation of Algeria was funded by Nubia, a nation that had been backing up the town of Cherchell against Spain's raids. This worsened Spanish-Nubian relations as Nubia would now have directly invaded Spanish lands.
War with France
Spain, alongside the Europa Pact, voted to declare war on France after its refusal to kick towns in Austria, Spain, and the GRE, officially breaking their border agreements. One of the border violating towns was in the Pyrenees. France quickly lost Bordeaux and Cagliari to Spain, Corsica to Italia and Carcassonne to Austria due to internal unrest and negative opinions on the French leader Megali.
