Introduction

Nation of the Month (January 2009)

This nation was nominated due to its effective use of imagery, text and language. You can help this page by correcting any grammatical or spelling errors, if applicable.


        A nation boasting a rich cultural heritage, the Grand Duchy of Genevra is a small state in Western Europe renowned for its picturesque atmosphere and natural splendor. Land-locked by the countries of France and Savoy, Genevra is no more then 420 square kilometers. Despite its size, however, the nation holds a deep connection with European history that runs as far back as the Roman conquests of Gaul. Officially, Genevra is a Constitutional Grand Duchy, a state which is presided over by a monarchical Grand Duke and his ensuing bloodline as well as an elected, Parliamentary body. In addition, theocratic principles form the foundation of Genevran society and the nation is one of the few in Europe to embrace a state religion. Genevra is an active and prominent member of the SCJU and has been since joining in April of 2007. This page is a compendium of all relevant information on the Grand Duchy and includes vast resources on the politics, history, etc. of Genevra as well as links to additional information.

According to the preeminent scholars of Genevran history, the nation's past can be broken down into five major eras, including the history of the region Genevra is now located before the time of Civilization. The line between each era is blurred and there is no single defining moment where one becomes the next. Each section above contains excerpts of the major events in Genevra's past and is in no way intended to be a complete dissertation.
