The '''Democratic People's Republic of Pochinco''' is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strong anti-business politics, its military might and its sturdy support of social welfare. It is amongst the most powerful nations located in the [[Golden Shanty of Saint Bens]] possessing in itself a large military and a strong manufacturing capacity. It consists of the mainland part of the nation, centered around the capital, and a small island off to the southwest, Forsicia.
+
 
+
==History==
+
What is Pochinco today would be almost unrecognizable in its medieval form. It evolved from a tiny backwards and primitive state known as Brotistika. Morotistika was ruled by the princely family of the Dorsinovs who had settled into the region in about the 12th Century AD. <br>
+
<br>
+
Dorsinov rule continued until around circa 1506 when the native Slovinian population rose up against their rule. For the most part the revolution was bloodless (compared to the revolution that would be seen almost 500 years later) and the transition was quickly made to a native Slovinian monarch. <br>
+
<br>
+
It was also during this time that the Slovinian peoples love of bear wrestling, which would quickly become the official sport of the kingdom and later the people's republic. During this time [[Prof. Ivan Von Stronsburg Eich Winchalguer-Isgorsanov]] using his mastery of clockwork created an army of [[Iron Bears]] which became the national animal of the nation. <br>
+
<br>
+
Peasant life in feudal Brotistika was most difficult. The land was impossible to farm and the many rock formations, most notably [[Mt. Duresky]], showed almost no mineral deposits to be mined. However, despite all these hardships, the noble people of the nation were able to get along quite well.<br>
+
 
+
==Grand Socialist Revolution==
+
In the spring of 1940 a young woman, tired of seeing the peasants brought down to shame and disgrace attacked the City Hall of her village and attempted to assassinate its mayor. This woman was [[Voula Setsinti]], a lowly school librarian of Alfredistani descent. Although she was easily arrested and labeled insane by the local police force and courts, her message truly got through to peasants of the village of Bratislavistik. Feeling compelled to help this poor woman, the peasants rallied behind a corporal of the army, [[Boris Pochinco]].
