Almondia

The Kingdom of Almondia, shortened to Almondia, was a nation in North America, established on November 12. It consisted of the northernmost portion of Quebec. It was one of the rump states that was established following the dissolution of the Vincentarian Federation of Mappercraft Colonies, and considered itself the true successor to the former nation, being situated on the former territory of New Estremia and being ruled by the House of Vincentaria.

History
After the dissolution of the VFMC, Almondia was formed in the northern half of what was once known as New Estremia. It was named after the player who planned out and began building what would have been the official capital city of the VFMC. They are known as r0adkills in-game, but they typically go by Almond in most cases, so they became the namesake of the Kingdom.

On November 22, Almondia became one of the founding members of the North Atlantic Union. It is a special autonomous region of the Union, so it is still administered by the House of Vincentaria.

Politics
Unlike its predecessor, which was a federal monarchy, Almondia was established as an absolute monarchy. This was done because Almondia was much smaller than the VFMC in both size and population and was fully contiguous with no overseas territories. Therefore, an absolute monarchy would be much more manageable.

The monarchy was once again ruled by BigVinny24 and saltimadi, who took the titles as King Vincenzo I and Queen Madi I of Almondia, respectively. They still held the title of Vincentarian Emperor/Empress, however that title was not used individually on Mappercraft, instead being applied to colonies on other servers.

r0adkills was the Almondian Ambassador and was responsible for handling most diplomatic tasks.

The Kingdom adopted a neutral and isolationist method of foreign policy which arose from an analysis of the mistakes of the VFMC. The VFMC expanded too much too quickly, and as a result it was hated by many nations and was too involved in European affairs. This onslaught of external pressure on the VFMC ultimately led to its collapse.
