The North Sea Republic (commonly abbreviated as NSR) is a nation located in Greenland, Iceland, the British Isles, North America, France, Scandinavia, Central/Eastern Europe. It was founded as the continuation of the nation of Canada from Classic and Wabanaki from Terra Nova.

The North Sea Republic is the oldest running republic on EarthMC, holding continuous monthly elections starting in September of 2017 and having no breaks in government since.

History

May 2022

LoganCreeper50 would win election as Hoyenah for May, with the three chiefs being crimsonknight, LordWulf and SireRobert. LordWulf would decline the position of chief and it would be passed down to phillips8.

Though the nation wouldn't officially be on EarthMC Terra Aurora at the time, many people played. On May 1st the town of Reykjavik would be founded by RlZ58 and would be the first town established in Europe.

The early access period would see many towns be established, and on May 4th the nation of Iceland would be founded.

Outside of Minecraft the government would work on cutting all the fat of the constitution and making it a lot simpler. The simplified constitution would be published on May 12th.

Iceland on May 3rd, 2022

On May 16th, 2022, the republic would officially vote to return to EarthMC. With 89.5% of people being in favor.

Talks would begin with the nations of Britain and Ireland about a possibly unification between the three nations. While the British would go back and fourth on wanting unification or not, it would end with a no. Ireland however would unify with Iceland on May 18th, 2022.

Thought the vote to merge with Britain failed, many British towns would decide to leave Britain and join Ireland, such as, Stranraer and Isle of Man.

At the end of the month a mini-emergency would occur within Iceland. The player originally owning Reykjavik and the nation of Iceland didn't like the direction the nation was going in, so they decided to leave the town and nation. They gave the nation to a trusted player and decided to disband Reykjavik. Luckily Reykjavik still had 2 players in it, one of which was MylesRatliff, who was able to reclaim Reykjavik and save the oldest town in Europe from falling.

June 2022

June would see the 2nd ever elected Hoyenah, RlZ58, win Hoyenah again. And the three chiefs would be MylesRatliff, jagster104, and Proser.

The month would see further expansion and more towns popping up and being recruited in Ireland.

Battle of Sligo - June 28th, 2022

On June 5th the government would institute a gold drive. A place for people to donate gold to help towns be able to expand and combat possible aggression by planting towns. As of June 29, 2022, the drive has been able to collect over 5900 gold most of which was given to towns in Ireland to be able to finish claiming the area.

June would be plagued with outside nations attacking members of the North Sea Republic. On June 28th, 2022 the Battle of Sligo would occur, with players apart of the nation Kaiserreich attacking Ireland. In the end Ireland would come out victorious, and the attacks would decrease in the following months.

On June 21st a vote to decide what the mega-nation would be called was held. The vote came down to two options, the North Sea Republic and The Northern Isles. The North Sea Republic ended up wining, and that became the official name of the union.

July 2022

jagster104 would win election as Hoyenah and 5 chiefs would be elected for the first time since. August 2021, the chiefs would be: Argues, zeb__, RedPanda1000001, and Stoatal_Misplay.

On July 3rd, 2022 the government approved the creation of another addition to the nation, Emirates, with the capital being Abu_Dhabi led by Stoatal_Misplay. The condition would be the same as those of Greenland.

On July 5th Argues would step down as chief and depart from the nation, player Tnce_, being the chief with the 7th most votes, would take his place.

The month of July would also see the start of discussions on the movement of the Ireland's capital. Ireland's capital was in a 1 chunk down inside of Dublin since the end of May but concerns would arise with the capital's location, mainly being that if a Hoyenah would ever want to they could get a large area of Dublin's claims removed by reporting them for claim blocking. At the end of June the government got their hands on a small 3x3 town called Better_Dublin, and that would be the place theorized as a possible new capital location.

August 2022

August would see jagster104 win his second Hoyenah term and the number of chiefs would go back down to 3, the chiefs would be: LordWulf642, Thing1920, and RedPanda1000001.

This month would see the relationship with the Emirates become rocky. On August 2nd, the leader of Emirates would post a message saying that Emirates would be cutting ties with Niagra. The Republic's government never voted on such a matter so the province was acting against the government by cutting ties. The government would put pressure on the Emirates saying that they don't have the power to do that. On August 13th the Emirates would vote to leave the North Sea Republic.

On August 5th, 2022 the nation would host Republic Day. Hosted by Hoyenah jagster104 the nation would have over 30 people online at once. The party would travel around Ireland, Iceland and Greenland. Taking a llama with them.

September 2022

CorruptedGreed unclaiming parts of New_York - September 17th, 2022

September would be jagster104's third and final term as Hoyenah, the chiefs would be: LordWulf642, zeb__ and P3chy.

Inverness would rejoin the nation on September 11th after the past mayor traded the town.

October 2022

November 2022

LadyCodyBug would win Hoyenah but would decline taking the position, making her the 2nd person in the entire history of the republic to decline the Hoyenah position. When LadyCodyBug declined the votes would be reorganized, with the 2nd place votes of people who voted LadyCodyBug first becoming 1st place votes. This lead to LordWulf7937 winning Hoyenah. The chiefs would be, jagster104, Carrot_Cake2002, LadyCodyBug, EchoOcelot and Angel1462.

During the early parts of the month the fall of Glasgow, including the nation of Scotland, became imminent. The nation of Scotland was an open nation so Ireland became recruiting. The town of Peebles was able to amass over 60 people and took the nation of Scotland, the nation was then moved to the 1 chunk town of New_Mombassa and the nation of United_Kingdom temporarily moved to Dover.

Though with the nation of Scotland being taken care of the rest was still not over because the town of Glasgow was still set to fall, and there was some competition. Operation Unicorn was a project to claim up all of Glasgow, with 10 active members of the operation. The goal was to get everyone they could to be apart of Skye and online when Glasgow fell so that they could claim it as quick as possible. To achieve this easier they created a tunnel system under Glasgow with each person assigned a tunnel. When November 9th, 2022 came the time when the town was supposed to fall, 6:00 AM EST, came and went, it took until 8:35 AM EST for the town to actually fall due to lag.

Notable Towns

Notable towns from across the republic.

Transportation

The North Sea Republic is home to the 'North Sea Republic Transcontinental Ice Railway' an Ice rail that connects towns as far south as Spain, through Ireland and Britian, Iceland, Greenland and to Norway. The project started in July at the town of Chalchou by player LadyCodyBug. The project soon would grow to encompass the majority of the North Sea Republic's towns thanks to dedicated excavators like, LustMelody the mayor of Derry, and help from everyday players. The Ice rail makes fast travel possible to distant towns across the republic.

The North Sea Republic Transcontinental Ice Railway would fall under disrepair after coordinator LadyCodyBug would stop playing on the server. Attempts to revive the national icerail would be made by player QTVNickBro in June 2022 called InterTown, but it would fail to gain traction among citizens outside of Greenland.

Government

The Government of the North Sea Republic is a 3 chamber system. The government includes the Hoyenah which is elected by the public and leads the physical nation. The Chiefs which typically has 3 or 5 members. The Hoyenah and the Majority of the Chiefs have equal power, and if neither branches agree the public acts as a tie breaker in a public vote.

The republic was founded in September 2017 on EarthMC Classic under the nation of Canada and has had zero breaks since.

Hoyenah

The Hoyenah is the name used by the elected leader of the nation. It comes from the Haudenosaunee word Hoyaneh which means "caretaker of the peace" and a title given to Haudenosaunee chiefs. The word was adopted for the republic in 2017, when leader Dayzle used the title. When the first leader was elected, the title was passed down.

Chiefs

The Chiefs are the second branch of government. They can exist in a group of 3 or 5 individuals. Similarly to the Hoyenah they are elected by the people in monthly elections. When a majority of the chiefs disagree with the Hoyenah the issue is presented to the public who then votes on it.

Appointed Positions

Within the republic's government there are 2 appointed positions. The Secretary of Interior and War Chief (commonly referred to as Military Leader). The War Chief is someone who manages offensive and defensive matter, though the Hoyenah remains the Commander-in-chief. The War Chief was originally elected at the start of republic but sometime in early 2018 it became appointed. There typically has only been one War Chief at a time.

The Secretary of Interior is a much more expansive position with a lot more possible duties. In the republic's constitution the job of the secretary isn't set in stone, with the needs of the government taking priority, but typically the Secretary of Interior focusing on internal Infrastructure, like building roads, ice rails, and stocking the community warehouse. Other times the Secretary of Interior was used as a way to get people interested in the gov a low responsibility job so they can view the inner workings of the government. There has been anywhere between 1 to 3 Secretary of Interiors at any given time.

Elections

The elections of the North Sea Republic begin at the end of the month. The process begins with campaign chat being open a week before the last day of the month, in the channel people announce their running for Chief, Hoyenah, or both, and include a short campaign message. The actual elections open on the last day of the month and are open for 24 hours. The North Sea Republic uses ranked choice voting, this is where you rank the candidates from first to last on how much you would like them in the government.

Emergency elections occur when a Hoyenah resigns or is impeached while in office, and can also occur when there isn't enough Chiefs when one is impeach or steps down. When a chief leaves office it goes down to the person who was next in line during the election, though when a Hoyenah resigns there is automatically an election. Typically with an emergency election there is a campaign chat open for 1-3 days, with a 24 hour election following. Normally an emergency election only occurs if there is over a week left in the month after they stepped down. Throughout the history of the republic there have only been 4 emergency elections.

Nations

Nations apart of the NSR have complete self governance over internal affairs. The only restrictions that North Sea Republic nations have is the central government controls foreign affairs.

To become apart of the North Sea Republic a nation must go through an integration trial, this is an arbitrary time period voted on by gov. It takes 2 branch approval to begin trials and fully integrate.
