Bergburg (CivRev)

The Grafschaft von Bergburg is a nation on CivRev that was founded by Zelmisburg on November 16th, 2021. It is located in the -,+ quadrant, near the center of the world.

History
Bergburg was founded an hour into CivRev's existence when Zelmisburg claimed a mountain just southwest of the center of the world. With a net worth of 8 diamonds, it was briefly the wealthiest nation on the server on that first day. It was raided and bombed with iron reinforced cobblestone by K0mmi and Ilci early the following day, making off with CivRev's first ever Diamond Sword. (The bounties for these two fugitives are still active and currently sit at 176 diamonds and 64 diamonds, respectively.)

Bergburg was raided again between November 29th and December 1st, this time by the Lolan player GrumpyWalnut96, who broke into a secure chest that contained diamonds and emeralds. This turned out to be on accident, as the Lolans believed the chest was a dropchest for the player KyleRittenhouse whom they were in a dispute with at the time. The valuables taken were returned (with additional reps for the lost EXP) late on December 1st.

In the same timeframe, the player Troll Bebek built farms at skylimit right over Bergburger claims, infringing the Barony's sovereignty. Worse yet, on December 9th, the new nation of Fortuna began to overclaim several nations in the center of the world, Bergburg included. The Bergburg Liberation Front (BLF) has been formed to restore the sovereignty of Bergburg.

When Khalkholm was abandoned on December 16th, Zelmisburg usurped the title, and became the Graf (Earl) of Bergburg-Khalkholm. He changed the nation's name to reflect his new title.

Some RPfriends later joined the nation and founded the town of Winchester. They took royal titles and attempted to turn Bergburger culture into Hanoverian British culture. Under this era, Bergburg was known as the United Earldom of Bergburg-Winchester-Khalkholm.

Bergburger territory continued to be divided between Free Bergburg and the zone occupied by the Fortunan aggressor until the latter nation's dissolution on New Years Eve 2021.

The RPfriends left on January 5th, 2022, prompting Zelmisburg to revert the national name back to simply Bergburg.
