Ulm (Classic): Difference between revisions

Ulm was founded immediately after the collapse of Germany, and initially was going to be the capital of a new nation named the Holy Roman Empire. The creation of Nazi Germany convinced paperpikmin to rejoin Germany however. The city's expansion was initially very slow, with only the town hall constructed, holding holy artifacts and the town's gold reserve. Slowly, more homes were constructed in order for future residents to be situated. Ulm officially opened doors soon after, recruiting many new players to the town. Very active ones include asphalt_1828 and luckyluckieluke. The policy led to extremely rapid expansion for the principality, however was changed once the first conflict in Ulm's history occured.

The principality at this point had been part of USTN for the majority of it's lifespan, despite forming entirely for Germany. The reasoning for this was unrest over the name Nazi Germany, and a desire to return to the old era of Germany. This was shortly before the German rebellion. Ulm at this time grew in size and infrastructure massively. The Ulm sheep farm, Ulm storage, and many new Ulm houses were constructed. More importantly, however, were the increase of outposts in use by Ulm. Ulm's first outpost was established in the icy mountains of Asia for mining, and was relatively successful in adding to the wealth of the nation. The second outpost is detailed more in the next section, specifically Kazan. The third outpost was Ulm's first End Grinder, specifically designed for the mass accumulation of unarmed. TTimmy was the creator of the grinder, however after an expedition that led to Ulm rediscovering the lost grinder, they allowed the principality use of it. Minor issues of disruption of the grinder occur occasionally, however the deal is a solidified and well made one. Another outpost was established in Antarctica as well. The residents of Ulm enjoyed a time of peace and growth, with new assets being made constantly.

The fall of Kazan was known before the event itself occurred, as a deal was forged between Kazan leader Netflix and paperpikmin. The town was largely evacuated and looted before it actually collapsed, primarily by Ulm and Netflix. The center of the town was also outposted immediately after it's collapse, allowing the riches of it's center to be exploited by the principality. Shortly after the collapse many players went to strip the already looted remains of Kazan to bare bones. The castles of Kazan are now shells of what they once were, however the area is of Ulm sovereignty now. More details on the event can be found elsewhere.

Penguinia, Ulm's Antarctican outpost, was established as a Kingdom after ArizTrad settled the freezing steppe. The colony quickly became a town of it's own, and with the arrival of colonist wolfbj, the region looked like an entirely independent town. However, the colony functioned as a direct part of Ulm. The principality of Ulm and King ArizTrad made an agreement, wherein in return for all gold spent claiming (48) [[Penguinia]] would be granted independence as a vassal of Ulm. This effectively makes them sovereign, but still under the Ulm principality. The Kingdom quickly became the gem of Antarctica, establishing beautiful farms and homes in the icy tundra. The vassalage of the town was questioned by several other people, especially when they joined a different nation, Connecticut, then Ulm, Nazi Germany. Ulm however asserts authority over the town as a vassal, and instead says that they are the only town to be in two nations, [[Nazi Germany]] and [[Connecticut]]. This makes Ulm even more unique. The future of the [[Penguinia|Kingdom of Penguinia]] is unknown, on whether they will attempt to gain independence, or remain a loyal vassal.

Ulm is a democratic principality under the Holy Roman Empire. The prince of Ulm is paperpikmin, however the position of Chancellor, the official governing head of Ulm, is elected Monthly, with political parties running for the position. Ulm is under the Holy Roman Empire as well, however the Empire is generally unused, and as such the acting emperor is disputed. The town resides in [[Nazi Germany]], which is currently undergoing political reform. The town functions as one of the three main administrative capitals of the nation, with [[Hamburg]] being the main capital, and [[Munich]] being the third capital.
