History
Following the collapse of the Russian Empire in 1918,The United Baltic Duchy wasestablished as a client state of the German Empire.The first two years in its existance was not the best ones,as it had to fight Latvian and Estonian nationalists who wanted their independence.Not long after the duchy had begun showing signs of improvement,it faced a new threat in the form ofThe great baltic rebelion of 1923.

During the severe ecenomic turmoil following the great war,the duchy had neglected its small army which by the time of The great baltic rebelion of 1923 had fallen into such a neglected state that the Estonian and latvian rebels were able to score several major victories against the duchy before the German Imperial army intervened. The arrival of the German imperial army in 1924 led to mass protests all over the country demanding that the German imperial army should leave. With the help of the German imperial army,the duchy managed to push the rebels back and by 1925 the rebelion was as good as over.
