Germania (The Nordic Glory)

Germania (Danish, German: Germanien), also the Germanic union (Danish: Germanske union, German: Germanishe Vereinigung) is a country in Northern, Western and Central Europe, as well as in North America. Appeared in 1513 as Danish-Dutch union (though Christian and Margaret, the rulers of Denmark and the Netherlands accordingly, were married in 1504, which is commonly used as the date of establishment of the union), which also included Norway with its overseas territories (Iceland, Greenland, the Faroe Islands and the Northern Isles). After the Swedish separatists were defeated in 1518, Sweden completely became part of the country. Then the emperor gained Austria by inheritance, which made the country one of the largest and the strongest countries of its time in some historians' opinion.

Public organization
In the Netherlands and Austria and the emperor's authority is limited by Landtag of representation of the nobility and the bourgeoisie. In Scandinavia at the end of the war with the Hanseatic League and the Swedish separatists, in which the Hanseatic were expelled, and the separatist sentiments of the Swedish nobility and Danish feudal opposition were subjected to terror, the Emperor managed to establish a regime close to the autocratic - the Riksdag (the analog of the Landtag) of Denmark, Norway and Sweden is formally convened, but dutifully approves royal initiative and power riksråd (Council of state) curtailed compared with the period before the beginning of the reign of Christian II; The king's power became hereditary, and his powers - expanded.

Economy
Austria is an agricultural region, minus Tyrol, which is famous for its mining craft. The economic core of the empire is the Netherlands, where Wallonia is located with its metallurgical industry and Flanders, famous for its cloth-making, where is Antwerp, which is also a major commercial and financial center, which also mediates Lisbon in the field of resale spices in northern Europe. The northern provinces of the Netherlands lag behind the south, but they also have significant urban industrial centers, especially in Holland and Zeeland. Scandinavian countries are not very developed and at the same time, with the exception of Denmark, have infertile soil, but the discovery by the Dutch of large deposits of ore in Sweden and the expulsion of the Hanseans who previously monopolized local trade, contributes to the development of the economy.
