Davsland's History.

The people are mostly of Scandinavian decent, who arrived in 900 AD to try and settle on new lands. However Christianity followed, which was not accepted an led to wide spread attacks on missionaries. Harald Davslo proclaimed Davsland to be the name of this land they have settled on in 1091. Harald Davslo was proclaimed to be the fist king and he ruled with freedoms, and an economic system that worked. Hense the name of the current system, Davsism.

The great civil war of 1473-1541 took a great toll on Davsland, with rival groups from the east and west fighting for land and resources. The war was eventual a western victory and led to the creations of New Hvarbald. the status Quo remained until 1756 when a referendum was held to create a new constitution. The referendum was passed and the king's power was reduced and a Prime Minister was elected. Davsland was also decentralized and Hvarbald agreed to come back into Davsland.

Skip forward to the 1900's. The First Great War broke out in 1912. Davsland stayed out of the war, despite conservative's calls to go to the war and aid other fighting nations. In the 1920's Davsland saw rapid industrialization and the spread of Industry coat to coast to coast. The Great Depression did slow the economy a bit but recovery was quick as Davsland's economy was not tied to the capitalist market economies.

The late 30's brought the beginning of the Second Great War, again Davsland chose to remain neutral during the war. But during this time ethnic Germans, Japanese, and Italians became the target of harassment, discrimination, and death threats. Thousands were arrested during between 1939-1945, this was called the Great Embarrassment.
