===The Formation of Derscon===

UNDER CONSTRUCTION
−
The Protestant Prussian Czardom has been ruled by three dynasties: The Andropov, Romanov and Rekjyavich houses. The founding of Derscon occured when Ivan Andropov led a rebellion agianst the Armed Republic of Nates World, eventually splitting off from the Empire. Ivan died before the revolution ended handing the leadership off to his son, Ivan Andropov, Jr. After the revolution was sucessful, he took the name of King Ivan Andropov II.

===Early Derscon===
 
−
Residing in the region of Cumberland Valley Eagles for a peaceful number of years, although historians have never found out how long it exactly was, as there was no written records of the time period. The only records held were the Crown's birth records. King Ivan Andropov had a son, later taking the throne as King Ivan Andropov III. Afterwards, his nephew, Duke Nicholas Romanov, took the throne from him.

===The First Holy Empire of Derscon===
+
==Government==  
−
King Nicholas Romanov I was a Roman Catholic, and when he took the throne, made Roman Catholism the official religion. Upon enthronement, the nobles approved the official naming of "The Holy Empire of Derscon." Because the Andropovs were sorcerers, they were banished to the Northern regions of Derscon, called by non-locals "The Cocytus." Upon enthronement, Kin Nicholas Romanov II created the first Dersconi Inquisition, responsible for the deaths of over one million non-Catholics.
+
The Government is entirely rested in the Crown, granted by Divine Right by the Grace of God. It is currently occupied by the third generation of the Rekjyavich-Andropov House, which is a merger between the Rekjyavich and the Andropov House. The old House of Romanov was exiled to Scodson in the Second Catholic War.

===Revolution in Derscon===
+
The Government has always been a monarchy up until the current Czar began the establishement of the Reichskongress. Development on that has gone no where, though.  
−
When King Nicholas Romanov III took the throne, a nationalist movement occured in the western and northern regions of Derscon, which was renamed The Andropov's were practicing Sorcerers, and the Inquisitors consistant persecution of the Andropov famlily drove the Andropovs and their supporters to the edge. The Declared themselves the soverign nation of Scodson after tensions built to the maximum. King Nicholas Romanov III declared war on Scodson and fought for over five years with the proclaimed Czar Ivan Andropov IV. During the Civil war, Protestant rebels to the East, lead by a very liberal Mikhial Rekjyavch, fought with the Romanovs alongside the Andropovs against the Romanovs. Eventually, they Romanovs were deposed, and Nicholas III was excecuted, along with his immediate family. They were exiled to the former republic of Scodson, now reunited with Derscon.
+
−
The Rekjyavich dynasty lasted for fifty years until Czar Nicholas Rekjyavich had only once child, which was a daughter -- Elizabeth Kemery Rekjyavich. As the Crown only went to the oldest son, there was no one of the Rekjyavich House to pass it on to. Upon Marriage to Ivan Andropov V, son of Prince Ivan IV, the two houses merged. The Crown list then looked like the following:

The Government has gone through many changes through civil wars and family disputes, the most famous being the Sorcerer Wars and the Catholic Wars. The Sorcerer Wars where when most of the Andropov House was excecuted for being sorcerers by the Catholic Romanov House, and the SCW was when the Romanov House was finally exiled to Scodson.

Prince Ivan Andropov, the heir to the throne, was placed in charge of the Army. Dislike for magic was growing inside the ranks of the Army, the government, and the people, who were mostly Protestant or Catholic. Eventually, Prince Ivan Andropov, now Crown Prince, led a military coup on the government. The Kingdom of Derscon was placed under Marshall Law, and the Andropovs were cast out of Derscon permanently. Most went to the former republic of Scodson, while some went to the Northern Arctic Deserts of Derscon. Crown Prince Ivan Andropov was wildly supported by the Dersconi people. He then inherited the throne, renaming himself Czar Rekjyavich Ivan Andropov II. He only kept the Andropov because he liked the sound of the long name.

The Protestant Prussian Czardom of Derscon is a massive, devout nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.234 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Religion & Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 51%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Beef-Based Agriculture and Uranium Mining.

Murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, the government helps teach children how to kill a man from six paces, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal then most battlefields, and notable individuals are granted land and titles. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Derscon's national animal is the Prussian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Mark of the Czar.

HISTORY

UNDER CONSTRUCTION


Government

The Government is entirely rested in the Crown, granted by Divine Right by the Grace of God. It is currently occupied by the third generation of the Rekjyavich-Andropov House, which is a merger between the Rekjyavich and the Andropov House. The old House of Romanov was exiled to Scodson in the Second Catholic War.

The Government has always been a monarchy up until the current Czar began the establishement of the Reichskongress. Development on that has gone no where, though.

The Government has gone through many changes through civil wars and family disputes, the most famous being the Sorcerer Wars and the Catholic Wars. The Sorcerer Wars where when most of the Andropov House was excecuted for being sorcerers by the Catholic Romanov House, and the SCW was when the Romanov House was finally exiled to Scodson.

Society

Life in Derscon has been through its changes.

During its founding, with the Andropov House occupying the throne, most people were practicing sorcerers, and were welcoming almost everyone into their nation. When the Catholics finally outnumbered the sorcerers, the Sorcerer Wars began, which is when Nicholas Romanov led an army of Catholics and overthrew the Romanovs. Sorcery was outlawed, and the established Inquisition basically eliminated all but a few of the Andropovs and other sorcerers. It also attempted to cast out non-Catholics. Eventually, the Protestants outnumbered the Catholics. The Rekjyavich house then led a revolt agianst the Romanovs, sparking the Catholic Wars. Eventually, they were overthrown, and the Rekjavich House took over. With the Catholics still skirmishing with the government and attacking the Andropov House, the Rekjyavich and Andropov houses combined, and the Romanovs were finally cast out.



Economy

The Economy usually consisted of Arms Manufacturing in one form or another as a major industry, as Derscon has always been a military nation, seen by the fact it is run by a giant military base.

The nation of Derscon is entirely self-sufficient, relying on no one to survive. Luxury items are imported, such as foregin cars, etc, but high tarrifs are placed on them to level the playing field, or in some cases, insure people buy Dersconi goods. The Greater Prussian Emprie maintains a strong Free Market Policy within itself, though, in which all Greater Prussian States must have a Free Trade system amongst the other Greater Prussian States.

The economy was virtually non-existant due to the multiple civil wars for many years until the Rekjyavich House finally overthrew the Romanovs. Since then, the Economy continued to boom.

Although it has had many slumps, no real depression ever came across Derscon. The Average economy was "Thriving" during its early stages, but it slumped to "Very Good" for awhile during the Hutu Wars. Upon those ending, the economy rose to "Frightening" and stayed there ever since.
