Albania

Albania, officially the Kingdom of Albania is a nation in southeastern Europe. The country is a monarch, led by King Harrier I, along with help from Chancellor Pip. It is the 5th most populated nation, and it's capital, Tirana, is the 3rd most populated town. It is a developing country, and is right now the only nation in the Balkans. Geographically, the country is very mountainous towards the east, with a flat coastline for ports and other developments, and the eastern mountains for bunkers and other strategic and military builds.

Politically, Albania's monarch has the final say on just about everything, and receives help from his Chancellor and fellow Dukes. Taxes are not really collected and money is added to the town and nation bank on random intervals by the citizens. Albania is a de jure Neutral State, however, it is de facto aligned Germany, and exerting control over the Mediterranean, with colonies in Gibraltar, Malta, and Morocco, along with Southern Greece willingly joining the nation.

Formation of the Kingdom
After the shutdown of GaiaMC, Pip, Harrier, Kona, David, and plenty of other players moved to PlanetaryCraft. Pip and his friends wish to create a smaller, and new nation. Initially considering creating the Kingdom of Wales or Congress Poland, Pip and Harrier decided on the formation of an Albanian Kingdom, due to its distance from the other great powers and secure location. On July 23rd, 2020, Tirana was founded, and on the next day, the Kingdom of Albania was proclaimed.

Growth of the Population
Over the next few days, the population of the nation grew from 2 players to 7, and became a rather large town. Around this time, Albania decided to formally declare that the nation would be Neutral and would limit their involvement in wars and conflicts. Players such as TinJax and Jaxblegit joined the town due to the potential and neutrality. A Villager Bunker has also been constructed.

Colonies
After a few weeks, Albania annexed Gibraltar and Malta as royal colonies. Both colonies are directly controlled by Albania, under the King's orders.
