History
Settlers Time (1957-1980)

The first settlers came 1957 after NewLeinsterafter the official ban on practicing Lutheranism. About half the congregation, or 500 people, of the Lutheran Church of the Village Georgia, Kenen Island decided to emigrate out of NewLeinster. The congregation charted a boat and landed in the present-day State of Georgia and founded the Citystate of Saint Augustine. When the persecution against the Lutheran kenish population escalated in 1963. The Government of Saint Augustine wrote a letter named: Promises of Liberty, which were distributed through NewLeinster. The letter urged persecuted Lutherans to emigrate to Saint Augustine. The government expected about 5000 refugees to arrive, however by 1967 about 49 000 people had arrived. The large influx of new people paved the way for the Divine Republic of Georgia (DRG) to be founded in 1967. The same year, King Darragh III of NewLeinster agreed to deport any Lutheran or kenish person to DRG instead of being executed. About 10 000 were deported, but an estimated 3000 was murdered.

With a nomadic native population, there were plenty of lands to settle on and by 1969 immigrants created the Republic of Yuka & Cape Liberty in the areas south of Georgia. And later the Ambarino Republic and the New Austin monastery was founded.

When NewLeinster persecution was officially ended in 1980, several new republics had been created: State of North Georgia and South Georgian Commonwealth separated from the Divine Republic of Georgia after a disagreement over the relationship between church and state, State of Yuka and Cape Liberty was split in two. However, the question that haunted the region was: How can persecution like this be prevented?

The White Rose persecution has influenced New Solon in many ways:

-White Rose day is a public holyday commemorating the first murder of a Lutheran society by paramilitary in NewLeinster

-§1 of the Consitution states: "A government shall be created that maintains the rights of the people and protect them from tyrrany /.../ "

In the east, a flourishing Espian civilisation had developed on the southern and western shores of Winter Bay, centred on the cities of Esrium and Argalium, from which the bay derives its Espian and Irish names.

Confederal Convention of 1994 (1993-1994)

In March 1984 delegates from the State of Georgia, State of North Georgia, South Georgian Commonwealth, State of Yuka,Cape Liberty, State of Ambarino and the State of New Austin met in Christiania, Ambarino to create a union for free trade and common defense.

These states are usually referred to as the original seven.

Admitance period

From 1988 to 2005 several states were admitted to the union.

The first state, except the original seven, to join the union was the Kingdom of Kennedy. The small kingdom, which was founded in the 17th century, saw the prosperity and freedom that New Solon had. With the free flow of arms across the border and with growing opposition to the monarchy, he feared for the kingdom to be overthrown. King Kennedy the 8th held a referendum with the question:

Should the Kingdom of Kennedy:

(a) - Remain as a Kingdom | (b) - Become an independent republic | (c) - Become a state in the New Solon Confederacy.

The result was 23% in favor of remaining a kingdom, 35% for becoming a republic and 42% in favor of joining New Solon. The new constitution of Kennedy was made by the king in November 1988 and the Commonwealth of Kennedy was created. The Senate of New Solon voted 5-2 in favor of admitting the Commonwealth of Kennedy to the union in December.

Liggon-Solon Liberation War (1997-2000)

The current state of the Sussex Panhandle was formerly as part of the Liggon province of Sussex. During the 1990s, this part of Sussex wished for more autonomy. However, the liggon government wouldn't grant it to them. From 1992-1997 various there were several attempts to create an independent state for the Sussex panhandle, but the liggon government crushed the rebellions. In July 1997, liggon put the entire Sussex panhandle under marshal law and performed a series of extrajudicial murders on prominent figures in the independence movement. In September the rebel government declared themself a state and asked for admission to the New Solon Confederacy. The New solon senate voted 11-0 in favor of admission. 28th of September 1997, the Sussex Panhandle became a state of New Solon. The same day New Solon ordered all liggon government officials and military personnel out of the Sussex Panhandle as they were illegally on New Solon soil.

Liggon declared war on New Solon 29th of September the same year to reclaim their lost territories. Liggon had a much larger military than New Solon and lost a lot of territory in the first days of the war. However December 22nd, 1997 North Atlantic Entente declared their support of New Solon and stationed 250 000 troops, 87 fighter jets, 32 bombers in New Solon. Compared with the 30 000 soilders and 180 000 militamen from New Solon.

Trough 1998 and 1999 the war raged on, claiming the life of 108 000 soldiers and 180 000 civilians. However on the 1st of July 2000 after 3 months of stalemate, booth parts agreed to a peace treaty.
