Overview of the States and general fluff.
Prussia From the future capital of the German Empire, Berlin, the Prussians were the ones that ultimatley won the day in the end. Will the do the same in shNES? They start their campaign from Ber (Berlin)
Austrian Reich The other major contender of the fate of Germany. The Austrians lost out on their chance during the disatrous 7 week Austro-Prussian War in 1868. Austria failed to ascend the throne of Germany, and Prussian dominance was all but assured. They start the game from WIE (Vienna)
Switzerland Although they never really played a huge role in the Germanic affairs after their defeat by Austria in the 1200's the Swiss, might of been able to take south-west Germany into a new Swiss Empire. They start the game from INN (Innusbruck)
Luxemburg Although this French/German duchy has remained independent. They could of played a larger role in Germanic affairs. They start the game from LUX (Luxemburg)
Bavaria - Wurtermburg The Bavarians known for Beer and Octoberfest (gotta love these people) Could of successfully taken Prussia were it not for their love of the amber liquid. Instead of uniting Germany under their thumb, they lazed around sipping the god's nectar and generally spent their time in a druken stupor. Wurtemburg had Stuttgart as its capital. Munich unfortunatley was to close to Switzerland and Austria in the game. They start the game from STU (Stuttgart)
Saxony Although this Kingdom was one of the first to be taken out by the Prussians it is entirely feasebile that the Saxons could've kept the might of Prussia at bay altering the course of history in the modern era. They start the game from DRE (Dresden)
Heligoland Bight This is a made up kingdom for the game. However if Hannover, Hamburg and Bremen had united against Prussia, Prussian ascedency to the throne og Germany would not be assured. They start the game in BRE (Bremen)
Brunswick Brunswick was a small state and had no real hope of doing anything great. However its politics swayed mosty of its neighbours towards Prussia allowing German unity in the West. They start the game in KAS (Kassel) which also posses the city Brunswick
Bohemia The Czechs are represented by the Bohemian government. In Real life the Bohemians were ling under the Austrian heel, however for the game we needed someone in their area. It will be intresting in how they can influence the outcome of the Germanic States. They start the game in KRA (which I am going to dub Krakow)
