The territories (Reichsländer) of Rotgeheim
|
The Fifth Reich of Rotgeheim (German: Das Fünfte Reich von Rotgeheim), also known as the Rotgeheim Empire or simply Rotgeheim is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy that consists of 28 constituent territories that occupy the whole of Northern Europe, as well as some of Western Europe, Central Europe, and Eastern Europe. The country is situated in the region of the Libertatem and spans roughly 21,702,938 square miles.
Rotgeheim was first colonized by settlers from the now-defunct nation of Steinweg after a civil war broke out between three separate belligerents forced many citizens to relocate or perish. This first group to depart Steinweg landed on the shores of the modern-day province (German: Reichsland) of Stargard in late 1801. Roughly a hundred individuals, led by an officer in the Steinweg Army named Florian Richter, arrived in Europe. After establishing a small settlement, which they had named Sparkling Coast (Funkelnde Küste), the largest vessel available (this vessel was a stolen Steinweg Navy schooner named the KM Schlupf) was ordered back with a skeleton crew to pick up more Steinwegers in need. About half a dozen trips were made back and forth between Sparkling Coast and the crumbling, war-torn Steinweg. Over five hundred refugees were saved from the civil war that engulfed the nation. After the Civil War in Steinweg ended, many citizens of the large nation fled to the new settlement in fear of the new totalitarian government. Citizens from the colony of Fuerstenburg (an Arctic territory owned by Steinweg) also fled in droves in fear of the new leader. The next seventy years saw the small settlement be built up from its lowly, humble beginnings to a large area roughly 385,000 kilometers in size, as well as the population increasing fifty fold.
Rotgeheim industrialized rapidly after 1870, with a foundation in coal, iron (and later steel), chemicals and railways. From a heavily rural nation in 1850, it was now predominantly urban in 1887. The massive numbers of immigrants arriving from nations such as Steinweg, Fuerstenburg, Schotteland, Scheinfeld, and Northern Prussia have given rise to a strong nation in science, economics, industry, and technology. The population has sharply risen from a mere hundred to over three billion in a century's time, although the numbers of immigrants in recent years have decreased dramatically.
Rotgeheim is hailed as a military superpower across the world, as its budget of NS$23.6 trillion allows the armed forces to stay up-to-date in the terms of equipment, as well as simply having a military that is large in numbers. The armed forces of Rotgeheim (German: Die Rotgeheime Wehrmacht) have never been defeated in a single engagement in its history as a fighting force. Numerous conflicts are constantly being undertaken by the armed forces, as rival nations wishing to retake lost territories from previous wars challenge Rotgeheim once more.

Etymology
The name for the territories encompassed in the Sparkling Coast settlement became known as Rotgeheim in mid 1825, although the origin of the term is still disputed. It is commonly accepted that one political leader hailing from Fuerstenburg named Eberhard Freudenthal (who arrived in 1804, among the first to flee from Fuerstenburg to Sparkling Coast) coined the term for the area after seeing aurora borealis (also known as the Northern Lights) project a red color across the night sky while on a hiking trip with fellow settlers. In his Fuerstenburger dialect he described the sight as a "Rot Geheim", or "red secret" (proper German dictates that it should correctly be called "rote Geheim", although the dialect spoken by the majority of Fuerstenburg clips off adjective endings). The capital at the time, Engelsscharen (English: "Hosts of Angels"), was mostly comprised of citizens from Fuerstenburg, and as the only printing press in the entire region was located there, all further documents regarding the nation were printed as "Rot Geheim". Eventually this was combined to read "Rotgeheim".
History
Geography
Territories
There are 28 territories (Reichsländer), one of which is a "free city", that make up Rotgeheim. Each territory has its own constitution and is largely autonomous in regard to its internal organization. Because of differences in size among territories, the subdivision of each territory is done differently in respect to population. Citizens that descend from immigrants that originated from one of the five major places of origin (Steinweg, Fuerstenburg, Schotteland, Scheinfeld, and Northern Prussia) are classified as such. Each state is also listed with the sub classification of citizens that is in majority.
