Neue Brandenburg (Principia Moderni)

Urban Areas
The nation is centred around the capital city, also named Neue Brandenburg. Although it is surrounded by several native villages, technically in Neue Brandenburgian territory, most of the population lives in the city, which is rapidly modernizing due to immigration from Germany.

Subdivisions
The nation is divided into the main city, Neue Brandenburg, and the outlying territories. Of these, most are given as fiefdoms to powerful generals and politicians, in order to hasten colonization of the native areas by Europeans.

Culture
The official language of Neue Brandenburg is German, although several native languages are also spoken. The culture of the nation follows north German cultural norms, in terms of cuisine, and literature, both of which are quite pronounced in the country. For the rich, the warm climate makes beach homes popular, and the Royal Palace lies on a seafront. Theatre is also a growing source of entertainment in all social classes, due to being cut off from Europe. Sportwise, games such as Beach Football (more OTL rugbyesque) and cricket exist, but are mostly played in the royal court. The largest religion is Lutherism, but a large number of the wealthy practice this ofhandedly, and the King himself is known to be a deist. There is also a small but growing Roman Catholic population.

Government
The country is an absolute monarchy, with power in the hands of the Hohenzollern King Wilhelm and his family. Democracy (or at least a representative republic) was briefly considered but never materialized.

Flag
The old symbol of the electors of Brandenburg was established as the national flag, as this was the crest of the Anglo-German Commonwealth, which led Germany to greatness.
