Helvétie
The old Bern was a city in France founded in November 2nd of 2018 by Nigth_Dragon.
The current Bern was founded by Judge__Judy under the name of "Alpine Gaul" after leaving the Greater Roman Empire. Judy's intent in creating this town was to join France run by his ally, Barvaux. This town was known in the past as Lombardy and Romandy.
History
Alpine Gaul
Bern was founded as Alpine Gaul in the alps, at the present-day Bern mountain enclave. Judge__Judy expanded the town greatly, making a large hollow claim in the alps. Eventually, he decided to start claiming north of the alps. The claims north of the alps were filled in from the start.
A Time of Expansion
It was in this period that Bern acquired the majority of its claims.
Expulsion from France
May
In early May, the town, now named Romandy, was kicked out of France by King Cragno I. This was due to Cragno and Judge__Judy's political differences. Romandy spent the first week refusing to join a nation as proof of its continued commitment to France.
Removal of Alps hollow claim
Cause
Bern's hollow claim was reported by the new nation of Switzerland after it refused to join them. This event was really upsetting to Judy and prompted him to leave EMC for 7 days.
German Ultimatum
The Kabinett Threatens Judy
The German Kabinett demanded Judy hand over his town to a Swiss person. Judy refused, however no action was taken as the town did not have a nation. Heinikin, Kaiser of Germany said that Germany would declare war on any nation Bern joined.
Bern had lost half of its size, it was kicked out of France, and it was "at war" with Germany. However, Judge__Judy wasn't going to cave.
French Revolution
Paris Grieved
A few days after Romandy's hollowclaim was removed and it was expelled from France, Paris suffered a massive grief by a trusted councillor, Mocc. The Eiffel tower was destroyed and the Louvre raided. This event set the course for the French Revolution.
Cragno Abdicates
Following the grief, King Cragno abdicated and took a back stage on EMC politics. Cactusinapumpkin was made the new King. This made way for a potential re-entry of Bern (Romandy) into France as Judy's political allies lobbied for him.
Re-Entry Vote
The vote and the chaos that ensued was made by LogantheProdigy (Vwon). This caused a large chaos in France as senators argued about the re-entry.
Operation Rampjaar
From the chaos, a group known as "Operation Rampjaar" formed between many French members that supported Romandy's re-entry. Some of its members included: Fmr King Barvaux I, LogantheProdigy, Thanamos, Judge__Judy, and Lamye. Operation Rampjaar members drafted an ultimatum to Benja, Mikey, and Cactus; prominent members of the French government.
Ultimatum Refused and 10 Days of War
The recipients of the ultimatum refused. This begun the secession of separatist towns and the beginning of the First French Civil War. The separatists, known as the Royalists weren't planning on owning a nation, allowing them to fight the civil war without the intervention of the Coalition of Europe and Germany.
Battle of Zurich (Swiss Capital)
Meanwhile, Germany and Switzerland were still at odds with Judy. In a smart move, Romandy joined Britain right after Germany violated a border treaty with them. With the help of Angloist, mayor of Dublin, a battle was started at the border between the Swiss capital and Romandy. Switzerland and Germany admitted defeat following the event. The next day, Britain and Germany managed to fix the border situation so Romandy left the nation, thanking them for their hospitality. This defeat forced Switzerland and Germany to re-negotiate a fair deal with Judy. The British victory at the Battle of Zurich will be remembered with the construction of "Britain Square" at the Bern-Zurich border.
The New Deal
Following Switzerland's defeat at Zurich, the mayor of Bern and the Swiss foreign minister, Bunnyrich reached a new deal: Judge__Judy would keep the town that would be shared between both France and Switzerland.
Revolutionary Victory
The revolutionaries and French King Cactusinapumpkin reached a deal, beginning the French Republic.
A Victory for Bern
Judge__Judy, as a member of the revolution was promoted to Minister in France's new republican government and was granted citizenship in Germany.
The Future
Judge__Judy intends on building Bern up into a popular tourist site accessible using /n spawn Switzerland. An Anglican church, and multiple museums are planned.
Buildings
Bern is currently still wilderness, however plans have been made to start developing the town.
