The Libertarian Alliance of Durick Veta is a North American Libertarian Republic. It is the largest nation in the Americas. It occupies parts of the territories known as Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. It also once occupied part of Greenland, which is now part of Kasnyia. It extends the Atlantic Ocean and Artic Ocean.
Durick Veta borders Great New France on the north-east, Bessentia, Henreald, and the the United States of America on the south-east, Chepechet and the Native American Nations, Kasnyia on the on the south, and Eleytheria-Duo on the north-west.
Durick Veta was once part of Canada, but gained independence during the US strike on Quebec. It began simply as the Republic of Quebec, but than lost territory. It began as a Constitutional Dictatorship, than eventually morphed into a Constitutional Libertarian Republic.
Durick Veta's government fiercly protects free trade, freedom of the individual, and economic freedom. Technically, Durick Veta is not a nation per se, but rather an alliance of individuals.
Name
Durick Veta was originally known as the Republic of Quebec in its founding years. However, as the founder of the nation, President Allen Kownnen, made more and more libertarian and anti-democratic reforms, he decided to change the name of the nation. Picking a name at random, Allen decided to call Quebec Durick Veta and introduced legislation to legally change Quebec's name. The name change was generally well recieved from the citizens of Quebec, with relatively few protests.
Durick Veta is often reffered to as simply Veta.
History
Aboriginal beliefs claim that they began inhabiting Durick Veta during the dawn of time. However, archaeological finds have proven these claims false. According to these studies, the Aboriginals first began living in Southern Ontario circa 7500 BC. These Aboriginal tribes lived in isolation for years. Their first contact with the outside world came when Viking Settlers landed in Newfoundland circa 1000 AD. However, the Vikings did not enter the territory that now makes up Durick Veta. Within a few years, they left Newfoundland.
Europeans again entered what would become Durick Veta (and Great New France) in 1497 and 1534, on behalf of England and France, respectively. In 1603, on behalf of France, Samuel de Champlain entered what would one day be Durick Veta again. In 1605 France established a colony in Nova Scotia and than in 168 another in Quebec City. The French named their colonies Canada after a word from an Aboriginal language, which meant Village. Catholic missionaries were sent to Canada to convert the natives, and they were largely succesful.
The British also began colonizing other parts of Canada (some of which is now part of Durick Veta). After the Seven Years War with France, the British, in 1763, were given French Canada at the Treaty of Paris. In the same year, a Royal Proclamation of George III restricted the religious and language rights of the conquered French Canadians. This was a strong blow to the Catholic French speaking Quebecios. In 1774, George III reversed this Proclamation, granting the French religious freedom and language rights again. He also expanded the territories of Quebec to include the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley. However, after the 1783 Treaty of Paris, the Great Lakes were ceded to the newly recognized United States. Many British loyalists from the United States emmigrated to Canada to rejoin the Empire at this time. These loyalists were given the newly created territory of New Brunswick to live in (also known as Upper Canada) and the French speakers were given the smaller Lower Canada in Quebec.
During the War of 1812 between the United States and Britain, Canada was a major front, as the Americans attempted to invade Upper and Lower Canada, as well as Nova Scotia. The British succesfully defended Canada and repulsed the Americans. In 1815, large scale immigration to Canada from Britain and England began.
