At the height of its power Bloom includesincluded the island of the Capital Territory, the Great Northern Territory, the Former Territory of Angullia, and many smaller islands. Bloom is a unitary parliamentary democracy and semi-presidential republic. The republic's capital and largest city is Bloom, a city that serves as a hub for global immigration and is the economic and cultural center of the nation. Bloom consists of two constituent territories: Capital Territory and Great Northern Territory. Within both territories and also outside of them are various townships, 8 in total; these include Capital, New Siata, Narda, Marseille, Angullia, DRK(Democratic Republic of Kek), High Velothi, and Capita.
 
Bloom is a developed nation. SinceAt the start of 2019, Bloom has beenwas comparable to [[Mt. Augusta]] and nearby [[Icenia]] as a [[Jargon#Newfriend|newfriend]] and architectural centercentre. BecauseAround ofthis its semi-high activity and large population,time Bloom has developed a powerful legal system, strict building codes, extensive rail connections, and a militia that hashad a large presence in domestic affairs. The capital city of Bloom has seensaw fast development, much of building being concentrated in the western end of the capital. Bloom was historically a member of the [[United Northern Congress]] and is currentlywas a member of the [[United DefenseDefensive Front]] (UDF) with its neighboring nations, [[Icenia]] and [[Imperial Truidence]].
 
= Civclassic History (April 2018 - present) =
During the [[Infinity War]] in 2020, Bloom was ousted from the [[UDF]] by [[Columbia]] over concerns about their ties to enemy combatants [[NATO]]. Almost all of Bloom's population departed shortly afterwards for [[CivRealms]], leaving its land in the care of [[Ashelor]] resident [[Slushhi]] and neighbouring ally [[Icenia]].
Bloom officially moved to Civclassic on May 19th, 2018, after 47% of citizenry voted in favour of the move.

Bloomeans lived underground for several weeks while they gathered resources and supplies to build up Capital. Each citizen was allowed 1 small 5x5 room that were all connected to a main hallway. As wealth began to circulate, people began to construct their homes above ground. The first two builds were the Parliament building, and Slushhi's apartment building.
 
After more buildings rose, Parliament had its first major dispute. Aleh56's Free Democratic Party wanted to enclose the capital in a wall and trench, much like NYC ([[New Yoahtl City]]). Slushhi's Libertarian Party opposed this as Bloom, the main argument being that it would make it harder for people to trade with Bloom and it would hurt Bloom's economy. Though Bloom did not have the volunteers needed to complete such a task. Construction of the wall and trench began shortly after Bloom joined Civ but expansion of the trench was called off after a month and the walls have remained incomplete ever since.
 
====== The Slushhi Ministry ======
In September of 2018, Slushhi won the election for Prime Minister. His first act as Prime Minister was opening Bloom to the rest of the server. He built several entrances going over the trench into the city. During the beginning of his ministry, he worked primarily on international rail lines connecting Bloom to the rest of the server. He lead many Bloomeans to complete lines to 0,0, Mt. Augusta, and Gensokyo. He also dug many internal lines connecting the capital city to Bloom's varying biomes.

====== The BoomBox59 Ministry ======
BoomBox59 won the election for Prime Minister in February 2019. He was quickly criticized by many Bloomeans for failing to make much progress and being relatively inactive. His most notable project was the restoration of [[Nexus|0,0]]. An early election was called, and Slushhi became Prime Minister again.

==== Aleh56's Resignation and Constitutional Reform ====
After months of inactivity in-game, Aleh announced his resignation from President in June of 2019. An election was then held where the citizens voted in [[Slushhi]] to lead Bloom. As President, Slushhi heavily edited the constitution, in which he abolished the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister's powers were then given to the President and Home Secretary. He also created the House of Lords, which can act as both Parliament members and Judges.
 
 
Truck_Man1234 was voted in as Home Secretary and he began to expand Bloom's defensive infrastructure.
 
=== Infinity War and Decline ===
The server-spanning conflict known as the [[Infinity War]] led to significant challenges for Bloom and ultimately resulted in its decline as an active nation. In 2020, Bloom was a member of the [[United Defensive Front]] against [[NATO]]. [[Columbia]], a fellow UDF member, became increasingly concerned about Bloomean Home Secretary [[Truck_Man1234]]'s personal friendships with members of [[NATO]].
 
These concerns came to a head one night in 2020, when Columbian Emperor [[Shadedoom]] made an announcement in the UDF Discord server and issued an ultimatum - '''if Bloom didn't leave the UDF, Columbia would.''' As Columbia represented a significant ally for UDF members due to its military and geopolitical power, this went unchallenged and Bloom was forced to leave the alliance.
 
The manner in which Bloom was expelled from the UDF overall soured relations between it and other members - the ultimatum was unexpected, and surprisingly unchallenged by those they considered allies. Due to this, Bloomeans felt that they were not welcome in the '''-,-''' and their contributions to the war were not valued. The decision was made to move Bloom's community to another server, and the majority of the population moved for a fresh start on [[CivRealms]].
 
President [[Slushhi]] remained as the last active member of Bloom, maintaining its vault and other infrastructure. The claims of Bloom, while still formally owned by the nation, are as of January 2021 under the administration and protection of nearby [[Icenia]]. While some members log on from time to time, overall Bloom as a functioning political entity has effectively ceased to exist as of January 2021.

'''[[Holy Jaded Empire|HJE]]'''-'''Bloom Relations'''
 
BloomsBloom's foreign relations with the HJE started on its first day. Bloom first was in contact with the HJE, who gave starting materials such as picks, snitches and bastions to the young new friendnewfriend country. The HJE provided jobs for Bloom through digging work at HJE vault projects, - these actions would kickkickstart start BloomsBloom's economy and help Bloomthem to become a regional economic power.

Bloom eventually decided to go with the [[UNC]] after its formation, setting it at an opposition to a group filled with many friends.
 
'''[[Mir]]-Bloom Relations'''
 
Bloom hashad very little contact with Mir, as their location and isolationist policy has made contact very sparse and far between, with such similar flags though. Mir and Bloom are sometimes mistaken for one another, anddue isto their similar flag designs which led to a running joke between the two nations.
 
'''The [[United Northern Congress|UNC]]'''
Line 103 ⟶ 114:
'''The [[UDF]]'''
 
The United Defensive Front was formed post-UNC as a defensive alliance between multiple developing nations including [[Icenia]], [[Imperial Truidence]], and Bloom. Blooms large reason for founding this alliance was a hole left in it's ability to defend itself because of the UNC collapse and the SATO rejection, along with a major healing in relations due to diplomacy attempts by Truck_Man1234 making Icenia and Bloom closer to allies. The UDF has ended up being a very positive alliance between the founding countries, members like Lagiacrus11, SoundTech, and more have nothing but sponsored Bloomean economic growth, and Bloom in turn theirs. Unlike the late-stage UNC defensive meetings, the UDF meetings weren't quiet and uncomfortable for all attending parties, the UDF meetings are active, all heads attend, and issues discussed in a warm manner due to the likeminded goals of all parties involved. Bloom has been responsible with it's international network for the intelligence aspect of the UDF, along with a large bit of experience on civclassics helping Icenia with their policy/infrastructure. Imperial Truidence has served as a sort of connection between the UDF and Entente,. All nations carry weight with their memberships and Bloom has been able through this alliance to "start up it's engines" and continue with major infrastructure projects that were put on hold after the UNC collapsed, and at a faster speed. Bloom was later kicked out of the UDF over its friendships with members of enemy alliance [[NATO]].
