Kingdom of Galicia (pol. Królestwo Galicji), West Galicia, East Galicia or Galicia is a nation located in Central Europe with the capital being Krakow. Established on 21st of September 2020 by 3meraldK following Second Polish civil war. West Galicia is one of main parts of Polish Federation.
Territory
Polish Kingdom claims stretch from borders of modern Silesian voivodeship to modern Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine, and from modern Warsaw all way down to modern central Hungary. As they control over the administrative region of Pridnestrovia, they double claim area by claiming half of modern Ukraine, to modern Kremenchuk. Galicia controls only a small parts of their all claims, estimating it on approx. 20% of. Main cause of it is aggresively expansionist German Confederation, so ongoing war between The Federation and Europa Pact. They border with Austria and Poland mainly.
Geography
Speaking of physical geography, Kingdom of Galicia lays in hilly area with parts of mountains - to be more specific, its West Carpathia. In mountainous terrain, a dense and big forest appears. Ukrainian steps are flat and poorly urbanized, despite of main Galician province being highly urbanized with cities all around it. Decent grief and general disorder are commonplace in this environment. Vistula flows this way, from the Baltic to modern Lesser Poland.
Demography
West Galicia's demography is noticeably unstable and mainly, depends on activity factor. It all is dependent from mayor's activity and if he joined the server and started a demographic rise in his city. Most of invited people turn out to be one-day players, so population drops by more than half, month after mass invitations. As of Autumn 2021, queue hit zero positions, and now it's much more likely that activity rises. It's unknown if Galician demography will rise or not.
Galicia rarely suffered inactivity era, but in mid-2021 the general activity of mayors started to grow. Inactivity has been mainly caused by enormous queues happening at the server. Population count reached 5 people at its lowest. Golden era of population is happening currently in West Galicia, kingdom is inhabited by more than 70 residents which broke population's record.
Economy
Galician economy is developing. The capital Krakow has very few poorly developed amateur shops, which are not visited by many foreigners. It is not trying to influence the world economy at all. Galician government doesn't kickstart or develop any industries as well, no bigger trades are performed. Largest transactions include intertown donations from richer mayors to grow smaller towns, or buying rare items by mayors. Plans to establish National Bank failed but may revive next time. Mayor of Krakow opened gold lottery once to revive Galician economy a bit, but the overall idea failed.
Government
Polish political system is an constitutional diarchy, so constitution written should be obeyed atleast partially by people and the government. Galicia has their own non-federal Royal Parliament which recruits the most trusted people in nation. They are manually selected by kings and they have some influence in ruling nation together with King. Sejm's members are Magnats (magnates or nobles) and Szlachcics (and they are low-level trusted people having their place in parliament). Parliament also implemented three departments of national management, they are: Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Interior and Ministry of Planning. Most of the system which Galicia uses was inherited from Polish Kingdom's governmental system.

History
Before revolutions
Germany issued an ultimatum to Polish Kingdom demanding fixing Polish-German borders. They were ignored though resulting in a declaration of war. However those weren't only problems of Poland, but also many other issues like common inactivity, bad overall reputation and several ongoing wars. A nobleman and an important politician of Poland, 3meraldK, asked POGKPP, King of Poland, to abdicate because he has seen his as bad king who refuses to reform the government and bring prosperity to nation. Galician region was then strongly integrated with Poland but things started to worsen when POGKPP refused to abdicate and reform the government to play more actively and requests weren't taken seriously.
Planning a rebellion
Multiple crises breaking out caused a grown unrest in southern Poland, such as inactivity epoch, several ongoing wars and general bad reputation of Polish Kingdom. 3meraldK got demoted from Magnat to Szlachcic for harassing and insulting king who wasn't attempting to listen to their requests.
He then thought of new Polish nation which would overthrow the government and bring prosperity to Polish people. He had to find trustworthy companions to rebel and he succeed in friending with Wolk__, mayor of Krakow, and UndoneArtist, mayor of Rzeszow. First plans expected Carpathian Kingdom to be proclaimed but plans changed and now it was East Galicia with Krakow as capital. Rebellion planned to be independent but threat from south which was Austria would simply redeclare war on rebels in order to expand over Galicia.
Proclaiming the kingdom
In August of 2020 new formed Galician government began to discuss with Austrian royalties and after some time it resulted in a subjugation of East Galicia to Austria, and breaking apart from Polish Kingdom. On 21st of September 2020, 3meraldK created East Galicia and Rzeszow, Koszyce and Krakow joined.
Development
Austrian East Galicia started to expand starting from annexing Zapadoslavia bought from Zombie22PL for 300 gold by _xFlyingEagle. Lublin joined and Zapadoslavia nation has been sold to someone in Germany. Galicia started to develop and soon it became strong vassal, bigger than Poland in population. In middle of February 2021 it turned out that UndoneArtist was spying for West Galicia, and rejoined Poland, but it didn't really disturb in development.
Unification
In April of 2021 Polish Kingdom tried to unify with West Galicia but they refused their offer. Instead, Galicia also wanted to expand over Austria so to gain more cities and more autonomous rights. But Austrians ignored them all the time or disagreed on given terms, so unrest started to grow and eventually it was unloyal to Austria. Also, Alpajino sold Naleczow to Austria which was a betrayal act and caused some instability within vassal.
In June 2021, Kingdom of West Galicia declared independence, and for two months was completely sovereign nation. In July 2021 a Galician old nobleman PanGubernator was supporting the unification of both states and he succeed in convincing both governments to merge. Talks began in the end of the month and Polish Federation has been formed.
Architecture
Galician architecture strongly inherits from Polish building style and is limited to a not planned building style or sharing plots for citizens to allow them build custom houses, resulting in horribly-looking overall appearance. This can be seen for example in Kosice which is one of the greatest examples of it.
- Krakow's square; complex of buildings resembling real Krakow city.
- Thisek Tower; the biggest tower of Europe in Kosice.
- Warsaw Arena; a 80x80 PvP arena located in Lublin.
- Cracovian Gate; an ancient gate built in old Krakow ruins.
- Castle of Lwow; a 2018 castle built in old Lwow, now is in Rzeszow.
