Michigan is a nation located in the Great Lakes region in North America with its capital being Downtown Detroit. Michigan was established on the 29th of September 2019 by MrJimBobJr who was the Governor of the nation. Michigan is currently not a member of any major alliances or mega nations and is an independent nation.
History
Expansion Era
After being founded, Michigan found itself in a battle of influence as Michigan was largely empty but found itself deterring settlements by Virginia as their borders expanded. As xSpifflesx, being Acting President until the first elections were held, had close relations with the leader of New York Lucas2011. The Council of the Virginian Commonwealth believed Michigan was a colony of New York. This was later clarified to be untrue and has now resulted in Michigan and Virginia working together on projects and fighting against hostile neighbors in America.
As Michigan grew with towns scattered across Michigan and all developing at a steady pace, Flint had grown greatly in comparison although during this time neighboring town, Detroit, had grown increasingly hostile. This resulted in the town mayor NFISH2021 attempting to attack xSpifflesx which led to NFISH2021 being killed by lava in the Michigan Senate Building. This led to an agreement to no further altercations between Michigan and Virginia.
The town of Toledo joined Michigan with CallMeKingJames as Mayor. In less than one week it gathered over 80 residents. This led to a border agreement between Toledo and neighboring town Trout. This further lowered relations between Michigan and Virginia as some lawmakers in the Virginian Commonwealth used this to try and push for war. This was due to Toledo claiming one plot of land that went against the agreement but was soon after unclaimed. This was later resolved yet has left relations remaining fragile.
Bill_Clinton2019 (Leader of Toledo) later went on to found the nation of Ohio, a close ally of Michigan.
Rising Era
On the 13th of November 2019, Michigan had voted to join the United States of America. During this period Michigan had established Flint as a large metropolitan area with shops being created to attract foreign businesses such as Megs Mobs who established it's North American branch there. By the 24th of November, Michigan had taken part in the first US elections. Electing one senator and three representatives, this allowed Michigan to influence how the USA was run as well as xSpifflesx being elected as President of the USA.
Over that time xSpifflesx ran a somewhat stable USA where over that period the Virginian Commonwealth had declined to have no effective power which resulted in more stability for Michigan to allow it to grow. In this period new towns had been settled such as Linwood, NorthBerry, and Grand Ledge.
By the time Michigan had it's second Presidential Election, Michigan had voted to leave the USA due to its non-functional government, xSpifflesx resigning as well as the actual development of Michigan's towns had begun to stagnate. In the second election, VvegeteHD was reelected with a landslide victory, gaining 66.7% of the vote. Since then there was a greater focus on Michigan's growth. Flint's name was later changed to Downtown Detroit.
Michigan gets bought by Rio Grande during the NAU-RIO war, ending the current goverment who flees with the money to asia.
Government
