The nation of Blood street was founded in 1603 when the British navy laid claim to a section of land of the south coast of Russia. The land itself was uninhabited due to the land bridge that once joined it to mainland Asia had flooded but the navy settled on it to use it as a staging post for trading in between Asia and America. The British Empire abandoned the nation after the war of Independence, there now being no need for the British to have a trading post between Asia and America. Most of the population stayed behind after the British left as the Island had been their home for one hundred years and the people still had a deep infatuation with the Island. In 1785 the nation declared itself independent from the British Empire in a letter addressed to Parliament thy made clear that they wanted to rule themselves free from the British governments rule, The British parliament allowed this as they hadn’t consider the Island part of the British Empire since the navy left there and they considered the nation to be worthless having no strategic value and (at the time) few natural resources, because of their lack of experience governing the people decided to have a ruling monarch and elected the most knowledgeable person on the island as king and in honour of the ships that first brought them to the island, currently known as Shoreditch, they re-named the nation “Blood-Street” and for a time things were good the people lived as one and prospered until the death of King Mendel The forgiving. The following section of Blood Street’s history is a dark and grim time as Mendel’s son Philip was a ruthless ruler who was harsh on the population of Blood Street he stripped them of their homes and land to build his “Grand Palace” and his death squads patrolled the streets ready to exterminate those who opposed his rule (and there were many).
  
It is unknown when Our nation was truly founded as such information was destroyed by King Mandel during the final days of his reign but it is widly believed that the nation of Homerton (our nations name under the feudel system) was founded in 1566 under our first king Holland. What followed was a quick and bloody campaign to wipe out all threats to his throne and the expassion of Homerton. It didn't take long however for His maltia army to be defeated and he withdrew back to his homeland after giving away half his kingdom in a peace treaty with the rulers of his neighboring country. What happened after this event is completly unknown to us, due to the recklesness of King Mandel, until 1914 when our nation gave it's entire army to British control in an attempt to stenghen realations between the two nations as a reward for this when the British won the great war our nation was rewarded with new equipment for our army (many of which were still using flint lock weapons.) The King at this point saw an oppertunity to tighten his rule on many of the country's people who felt they were being taxed to death and were marching on Shoreditch in revolt.In an attempt to keep peace in his nation he promised to meet the people's leader a one Steven price a simple farmer,and great grandfather of our current leader Ashley price, while keeping those who openly opposed himin shoreditch a divison of his newly equiped army marched on the source of the revolt and Massacred the towns people. when news of this arrived to the revolters in shoreditch many gave up and went home after two days the rest were mowed down by the king's calvery all except Steven price who was hung,drawn and quartered in traitors square whilst his family watched on as the king had the royal band playing the countries national anthem. In a final act of rebellion towards the king with his final words Steven shouted to the heavens and the people "I die a free man,Who will join me?" in these words the seeds of rebellion were laid.

Due to his harsh rule many citizens gathered together to fight King Philip however there were many different factions that wanted to be the ones to liberate Blood Street each faction vowed to eliminate the others before eliminating the king. This bloody in-fighting lasted for five years until the republican forces made a daring attempted to join all the factions together. A date was chosen and agreed upon by all the leaders and a truce decided upon so that the factions could depose the King. This day was called “United Thursday” and would set the tone for the government after the rebellion with the republicans at its head with the other parties representing each area of the nation. For the next three years the United freedom organisation launch a hit and run policy on fighting the king’s army and soon they had many rallying to their cause partically after the King instituted his conscription plan, where trucks would drive up to peoples homes at night and kidnap the men in the house to ether join his army or work in the labour camps, The key events of the revolution, that are still held in high esteem, were The Peterloo Massacre and the storming of the royal Palace. Both events occurred within weeks of each other and both had very limited casualties for the United freedom organisation.

During this period it is said hat King Philip became paranoid about everyone he meet and locked himself in his own chamber away he said from those “traitors”.

A Brief Historical Overlook

The nation of Blood street was founded in 1603 when the British navy laid claim to a section of land of the south coast of Russia. The land itself was uninhabited due to the land bridge that once joined it to mainland Asia had flooded but the navy settled on it to use it as a staging post for trading in between Asia and America. The British Empire abandoned the nation after the war of Independence, there now being no need for the British to have a trading post between Asia and America.

The Revolution

Due to his harsh rule many citizens gathered together to fight King Philip however there were many different factions that wanted to be the ones to liberate Blood Street each faction vowed to eliminate the others before eliminating the king. This bloody in-fighting lasted for five years until the republican forces made a daring attempted to join all the factions together.

The Nation of Blood Street officially declared itself a republic on the twenty second of October 1917.

Current Government

The Current goverment is based upon a republican system where each reigon of blood Street is represented by a democratically elected individual who's job it is to vote on the issues that reach the leval of national importance. At the head of the republic sits Ashley Price the current head of Republic his job is similar to that of the members of the republic with the exception that he decides what the country will be doing in relation to the rest of the world.

A republic is a state or country the sovereignty of which is based on popular consent, and the governance of which is based on popular representation and control. Several definitions stress the importance of the rule of law as part of the requirements for a republic.

Often republics and monarchies are described as mutually exclusive.[1] Defining a republic as a non-monarchy, a common short definition,[2] is based on this idea. Although largely covering what is usually understood by a republic such definition has borderline issues, for example while the distinction between monarchy and republic was not always made as it is in modern times, while oligarchies are traditionally considered neither monarchy nor republic,[3] and while such definition depends very much on the monarch concept, which has various definitions, not making clear which of these is used for defining republic.

The detailed organization of republics' governments can vary widely. The first section of this article gives an overview of the distinctions that characterise different types of non-fictional republics. The second section of the article gives short profiles of some of the most influential republics, by way of illustration. A more comprehensive List of republics appears in a separate article. The third section is about how republics are approached as state organisations in political science: in political theory and political science, the term "republic" is generally applied to a state where the government's political power depends solely on the consent, however nominal, of the people governed.



International Obligations and Relations

Due to the violent revolt that depossed the former King of Blood street the nation has not been offically reconised by the United Nations.
