Nassau is a Democratic Republic in the southern end of the Grand Isles, that was a former tributery of Burkeland and a Duchy that was overthrown in a rebellion and later gained full independence after millitary pressure from Purshovia. Nassau is lead by a popularly-elected Governor, who is elected for three-month terms, with the Admiral being the second-in-command and the leader of the navy.
History
It is unknown when the Duchy of Nassau came into existence, due to it not being added as a port till 2018 with Harrisburg, Salem and the island of Cannoneer's Key.
Creation of the Republic
The Republic of Nassau was declared in the middle of the at the time on-going Nova Balreskan-Burkeland War over the islands of Salem and Harrisburg that taken up arms against their owner Burkeland to join Nova Balreska. A rebellion was declared against their Duke, Nelson the "Nasty" of Nassau, lead by a person named Bob Pinkers Schmucklebutt. The Rebellion was supported by Chancellor Cholaso of Nova Balreska with Admiral Cheeze sent to help the Rebels, while the Navy of Whitecrest was on the side of Duke Nelson. Both sides would send aid in the form of men to their respective sides in the rebellion to help their allies on the island in the battle for Nassau, which would end when Duke Neslon had to retreat from Nassau with the help of Whitecrest.
After their succesfull rebellion Nassau launched an invasion against Salem, capturing the island an annexing it into the Republic. Burkeland after finishing their conflict with Nova Balreska would go on the offensive against Nassau. Defeating the Republic's forces and after which they would turn Nassau into a tributary state underthe Kingdom of Burkeland. Nassau would be allow to keep Salem and Burkeland would set up the office of Governor of Nassau to control the islands.
Gaining Independence
On September 18, 2020 Nassau would be added as a playable faction into Tradelands. Due to it being new a temporary leadership would be set up under the leadership of Admiral w0ws. Nassau would find it self instantly in a Region Wide War between two sides. With the Aukai blockade of Hallengard ending a day before, and the War for the Reconquest of Perth started by Nova Balreska on Whitecrest two days before. Burkeland would decide to support Whitecrest in the war after an attempted takeover by a Scion of the Man Dynasty, LucasKCVC, dragging the new faction into it. The Navy of Nassau would show it's worth during the war, mainly in the defence of Burkelandic Southern Fleet's main port, Harrisburg. The war would end with Whitecrest, Burkeland and Nassau winning
Peace would not last for long however, the newly elected Governess Apple_Turnovers would see the Purshovian-Burkelandic War's Grand Isles Theatre unfold before her eyes. Seeing the Fortress of Clydesdale fall to the Purshovia Navy and the ongoing fight for the home isles of Burkeland she would declare Nassuvian independence. Admiral w0ws seeing the situation would start a coup which would fail, after which negotiations would begin between Nassau and Burkeland. In the end Nassau would give up Salem for the Fort of Saint Christopher, which was supported by Purshovia. Nassau would find it self in peace, electing Ser50 to be their second Governor. But while Nassau was establishing itself, conflict was brewing all across the Grand Isles. And on December 27, 2020, Nova Balreska would finally declare war on Nassau to take control of their Fort. After the loss of their islands, Nassau had no other option but to maken an alliance with their on-and-off enemy, Whitecrest. The two factions would fight against Nova Balreska in the coming months of 2021, till finally the Purshovian Admiral, Marochev, would take affairs into his own hands, creating a semi-coalition with the factions of the Grand Isles and crush Nova Balreska. Nassau successfully retake Saint Christopher during Purshovia's blockade and bombardment of Verdantium.
Stability and Turbulence
With order restored to the region, Nassau would look towards the new small once again independent nation of Salem. The small faction gained freedom after the Peace Treaty between Purshovia and Nova Balreska, but Nassauvian Leadership, claiming it as it's rightfull territory would seek to conquer the island once more. Salem's defenders would prove to be a strong defensive force, halting the Nassuvian Navy many times during the war with Trading Ships, the war gaining the nickname; the "Goose War" after the conflict ended. Nova Balreska would intervine multiple times during the conflict which would last 2 months, ending with the Nova Balreskan takeover and annexation of the island. With nowhere to expend Nassau would find itself in a small amount of peace, while the contreversional election of July caused chaos inside of Nassau. With Ser50 being unable to run, multiple unliked candidates wishing to become the next Governor and successor of Ser50 tried to gain the position of leadership. Due to the chaos an attempted political takeover by the player Beyonder was started, declaring himself the self-appointed Governor of Nassau. It would all end with the unprepered candidate, blueskydiamondgaming becoming Governor for a short while, before suddently disapearing, after which the Governor position was overtaken by Admiral SquidTrain, a veteran in Nassau's wars. Nassau would stabalize till the next election, where the candidate Poutpout_army, a beloved figure would win the vote of the people.
Poutpout_army's intended reforms that he set up to do would be interupted by the First Whitecrest Siege of Saint Christopher, that saw the Nassuvian Navy fiercly defending against the Kingdom of Whitecrest, King EfficientYT wishing to establish a defencive live against Nova Balreska. The war would be marked by the amount of blockades that took place during it, being one of the only wars fought with naval battles only. In the middle of the war, Governor Poutpout_army resigned from his position, with a temporery Naval Junta being set up for the duration of the conflict. The war would end with the final battle between Whitecrest and Nassau at Saint Christopher, the Nassuvians sinking or boarding the naval ships of Whitecrest. Combat would end on the Posiedon of Whitecrest Navy member Zachgaudio, the nassuvians capturing it in the process. Whitecrest and Nassau would sign a peace deal a day later.
Skulldragon7's Wars
After the Ser50 would be reelected for the remaining part of the year, while a Captain by the name of Skulldragon7 would rise to be the leader of the navy as its Admiral. Nassau would remain peaceful for the duration of Ser50's term, announcing that he would not be running in the next one. Multiple navy members tried to become the new Governor, with ItzNastyyy winning at the end of the election. ItzNastyyy would continue Ser50's peace and try make allies with the fellow democratic nation of Nova Balreska, which would end unsuccessfully. While the new Governor was doing his own plans, Skulldragon7 would authorize a Mysterius Expedition by the Navy. It is not know by the public what happened in it, and no details have been revealed yet. During this time the Pirate Crew, Imperial Marine Corps would start wars of Pirate Conquest with the crew Rogue Raiders aiding them in attacks. The Pirates would take over the islands of Perth from Nova Balreska, Skulldragon7 deciding to liberate the Perth and then exchange it for the island of Salem, still under Nova Balreskan control ever since the Goose War. The pirates would request aid from other Pirate Crews, and would successfully defeat the attacking Nassuvian forces at Perth, later capturing the Fort of Saint Christopher for 2 weeks.
On March 22. of 2022, Commander Y'Gert of the Inyolan Imperial Navy would announce his presence to the people of the Grand Isles. Commander Y'Gert was sent by the Emperor to deal with Inyola's enemies in the region, and to destroy the Inyolan Rebel incursin that had taken place within the Grand Isles. He would thank Nova Balreska and Whitecrest for their aid and call for their help in crushing the rebels located in the region. It would soon come to the public's attention that Nassau and the Blackwind Pirates both decided to support the Inyolan Rebels, splitting the Grand Isles into two different sides regarding Inyola. The Imperial Alliance and the Rebels with their supporters' aid would soon engage with each other. The Rebels crushing the naval forces of the Imperial Alliance in one of the largest recorded naval battles in the Grand Isles. After the battle the Inyolan would switch their efforts to taking over the islands of Cannoneer's Key and Clydesdale from Purshovia, only managing to land on Cannoneer's Key before their fleet would be sunk by the Purshovian Navy. The two sides are currently in a standoff.
The newly choosen King of Whitecrest, gghostwolff would declare his intensions of continuing the plans of his predecessor, Late King EfficientYT by starting the 2nd Whitecrest Siege of Saint Christopher on the 13th of May. Governor Nastyyy would loose his position to the once again returning Ser50 who took a month before King gghostwolff's declaration of war. Whitecrest and Nassau would fight around the island for several days, with Whitecrest's navy trying to keep hold of their blockade on the Fortress. Nassau would face many casualties in the form of officers, making it low on manpower during the second half of the war. Nassau would successfully halt Whitecrest and push them back to Fenwick where the Nassuvian Navy would attempt an invasion but be stopped by Whitecrest Navy due to bad communication between ships, destroying the fleet. A few days before the battle, the leadership of Whitecrest would offer a White Peace to Nassau, but the at the time Vice Admiral WernerModel would decline it, angering both the officers under his command and the Admirality of Whitecrest. The final battle would take place on the 4th of June, ending the same way as the first war. Whitecrest with their moral regained would attempt a new offensive with 2 Tyrant and a Sigil class ship, while the remaining Nassuvian Navymen mustered together a force of a Camel and Dragon class ships. The Nassuvians would board and take over two of the enemy ships and sink the remaining one ending the battle.
