Zukariaa (German: Zukerreich), officially the The Imperial Autocracy of Zukariaa (German: Die Kaiserliche Autokratie von Zukerreich), is a country in Western Terra Exitium. It is bordered on the north by the North Sea, Rosbaningrad, and the Baltic Sea, on the east by Jaredcohenia, on the south by Demoras and Seseer, and on the west by vast expanse of unclaimed territory.
Zukariaa is an Absolute Monarchy. The country previously consisted of two sovereign states with their own history, culture, and religious affiliation. Zukariaa was first unified as a nation-state amidst the Zukariaan-Zykurian War in 1784.
The Imperial Autocracy is a member state of the ACTO, and is a founding member of the Tripartite Pact. It has a relatively small population, but large economy compared to Terra Exitium nations.

History
Prehistory
It is not entirely clear where the Germanic tribes of Zukariaa originally began showing up in the area, or where they come from. Evidence shows that they migrated from the north, where current day Rosbaningrad is. The expansion of the tribes was rapid. They spread across all of "Großer Zukerreich" in only hundreds of years. It is here that they stayed, slowly advancing over hundreds of years.
Eventually, however, the tribes organized into the first nationstate within modern Zukariaa's region of influence ever. It was small, but because of it's organization, it became very powerful. This lead to a second nationstate being formed in order for still unorganized tribes to defend against the powerful one. These two nations were the precursor nations to Zukariaa and Zykuria.
The Ancient Zykurian Empire and the Zykurian War
The Zykurians, as they called themselves, had become all powerful in Zukariaa. By 372 AD, the Empire, under an Emperor Viktor the Great. Viktor the Great's viciousness with the smaller nation of Zukariaa lead to the Zykurian War. The war began when Viktor the Great attempted to annex Zukariaa into his everexpanding empire. However, he had underestimated the Zukariaan nation, and failed in his first attempt. He again, 10 years later, assaulted the nation. He made much more progress, but again he failed. After two failures, the Zykurians lost favor of Viktor and dethroned and executed him. The loss of leadership in Zykuria lead to the collaps of the first Zykurian Empire and to the rise of Zukariaa as the dominant Zukariaan nation.
Medieval Zukariaa
After several hundred years of war after war, Zukariaa had conquered almost all of Großer Zukerreich. Still, the Zykurians held on to their long dead nation, and in a revolt against the Zukariaans, they claimed sovereignity once again. In 1154, however, the Zukariaan Empire fell apart in a series of coups and revolts. The Zykurians took the chance to take back land that had once been theirs, and more. For the next 46 years, they would lead a series of wars of conquering.
The Imperial Autocracy of Zukariaa
In 1200 AD, the Zukariaan nation revived from it's losses 50 years earlier. In that time, however, three other nations had revolted and claimed sovereignity besides the Zykurians. The Zukariaans, reformed under the rule of the Kaiser Fritz Gramman, once again took the offensive, beginning the Great Zukariaan War.
The Great Zukariaan War
The Great Zukariaan war was a war fought within modern day Zukariaa. It was initiated by the Zukariaan nation in order to regain dominance of Zukariaa from the Zykurians. It was a successful, but also failed, effort. The Zukariaan managed to conquer one nation called by the Zukariaans "Unsterblich", modern day Rosbaningrad. They failed, however, to take control of the nations of Demoras and Seseer. Zykuria and Zukariaa, by the end of the devastating war, were equals once again.
Peace
For the next hundred years, peace was achieved through political negotiations. The two rival nations had been at peace longer than they ever had been before. It was a time of great technological, social, economic, and political advancement.
The Zukariaan-Zykurian War and Unification of Zukariaa
In 1784, the two nations once again went to war. It was the most devastating war that the two nations had ever waged, not including several with the Cohens over Unsterblich and East Prussia. Nearly three million died in the war, and near it's end, the two nations began negotiating an end of the torture the nations were enduring. They came up with a plan never thought of before; they would unite under one banner. And so they did, and with that, the Zukariaans were united.
The Zukariaan-Jaredcohenian War of 1961
After 200 years of peace, the Zukariaans had managed to build up an impressive army. They had become the technological and economic powerhouse of the region, yet the Jaredcohenians had always remained an eminant threat. They were gigantic, and they had claims on Zukariaan territory. On July 2, 1961, they initiated a surprise attack on Zukariaan controlled Unsterblich, or as they called it, Rosbaningrad. They managed a beachhead and advanced forward on a small town known as Kaiserburg. The town of Kaiserburg managed to hold off a massive attack, causing the Jaredcohenians to be forced to go around it to find an easier way to capture the region. They eventually did, but Kaiserburg remained in Zukariaan hands. The town half off two more attacks before a peace was signed. The border of Zukariaa and Rosbaningrad remains 10 kilometers to the north of Kaiserburg, where the first landing occurred.
The Danteri Civil War
In the early 21st century, a nation known as Danteri plunged into a massive civil war. The nation was quickly devastated, and the Zukariaans took the side of the government in quelling the rebellion taking place. They were unable to make a significant difference until the nuking of the Danteri capital, when the Zukariaans were given control of the Danteri governments controlled zone. It was, however, at this time, that the Zukariaans faced a more important problem.
The Kraven Takeover
In the early hours of May 21, 2006, the Kraven Corporation, a resource hungry war machine, invaded and took control of Zukariaa a slave state. The situation became desperate for the people of Zukariaa as they were forced to do everything that Kraven told them to do. Women were used like animals to generate Kraven soldiers, and people were slaughtered by the thousands for the mistakes of the few. In Danteri, the Kravenites took control of most of the country, and initiated a Kravenization of the land. A sort of Cold War ensued. The Kravenites held control of the Zukariaans for 10 years. In 2007, after a defeat, the Kraven War Machine fell into deep isolationism.
