History of Neue Deutsche Reich

The Beginning – The Republic of Prussia
The history of Bexar begins with the re-establishment of the Republic of Prussia, in the wake of the collapse of the old Soviet Union in 1991. In 1947, Prussia had been officially dissolved by the victorious allies, and its territories were divided between the old nations of Lithuania, Poland and the then Soviet Union. All ethnic Germans were expelled from these areas and sent west. The Soviet held part was turned into a vast armed camp known as the Kaliningrad Oblast. The displaced Germans were replaced by peoples from across the Soviet Union.

The election of Mikhail Gorbachev to power in the Soviet Union in 1985, and his policy of perestroika/glasnost inevitably led to the collapse of the Union in 1991. Kaliningrad passed into the control of old Russia. Russia was in a state of political and economic turmoil, and immediately began to reduce its military expenditure. In Kaliningrad this meant the withdrawal of much of the military hardware. At the same time, the population of the Oblast began shrinking as people decided to return to their original and newly independent nations. The area went into sharp economic decline.

In an effort to repopulate the area & stimulate the economy, in 1995 after long talks between Russia and émigré organisations in the west, the Russian Government announced that it would allow the deportees of 1947 and their families to return home. This was extended to all deportees from former German territories and Baltic Germans a year later. One of those returnees was a former soldier and erstwhile political activist, Hermann von Salza. After a slow start, the deportees returned in droves, quickly becoming the dominant ethnic group. The economy began to improve, and successive moves to Germanise place names, education, etc. were approved. In December 2006, the unchecked greed associated with a continuingly globalised economy sparked a rapid decline, which culminated in the events of Black Monday in September 2007, when total meltdown was achieved and all of the old nations dissolved in disarray. From the collapse new nations emerged from the old, and in March 2007, Hermann von Salza announced that the Kaliningrad Oblast would henceforth be known as the reborn Republic of Prussia. He also stated the government’s intention to reclaim all of the original Prussia’s territory.

The Prussian Government quickly realised that they were vulnerable to attack from other stronger nations. To survive these volatile times they would need to join forces with other nations. A few weeks after establishment, a representative of the Norden Verien alliance, Weiss von Totten, arrived in Konigsberg to negotiate Prussia’s entry into that alliance.

Prussia entry into NoV provided an immediate economic boost, coupled with the security of association with other friendly, likeminded Germanic nations. However, it was not to last.

On May 10, 2008, a bloc of alliances called the Continuum, declared war on NoV for no reason other than fear. The resulting war, with NoV and her allies fighting valiantly to the end, ended with the surrender of NoV on August 15th 2008. Prussia, which had been ordered to go into neutrality, continued to maintain the NoV affiliation in defiance of the Continuum for some months after the end of the war.
