Northern Confederation: Difference between revisions

The '''Northern Confederation''', officially the '''Confederation of the Universal North''', was a country in [[Cusinaut]]. The Confederation, founded in the 17th century, united the [[List of peoples of Cusinaut|dozens of different peoples of eastern Cusinaut]] into a loose confederation able to solve disputes between its members and establish firm rules for trading, and in so doing the new Confederation created nearly three centuries of stability and growth in Cusinaut. Critically, the Confederation also unified the military capabilities of its members, allowing it to consistently defeat efforts by the [[Occident]] to colonize Cusinaut, and even when Occidental colonies were established the strong defense of the Confederation prevented further expansion. The Confederation gradually become unable to resolve disputes, especially those involving the emergent Algosh and Housatonish ethno-linguistic groups, which led to the decline of its political relevancy. The Confederation continued on through the [[War of the Northern Confederation]], wherein some of its members invited [[Urcea]]n intervention against other members. Despite having been rendered functionally obsolete, the Confederation continued on through the war until the [[Algosh coup]] formally reorganized it.
