History

Bronze age

The Bronze age in Verscie is full of wealthy, and wonderful artefacts. from many Vercian tribes. these tribes were:-

  • Karvetti
  • Parisii
  • Vindelika


Socialism in Vösia

In the early 1940's Verscie suffered a depression in it's economy during this time Verszians wanted the government to take more responsibility to control the economy. Despite much protests by others, Verszians voted for a Socialist democrat leader.

During this period there was compulsory DNA tests were taken, those who defied were shot. The Verszian government campaigned it's imagined nation and it's eugenicists dream. Verszian's with a nithalosian haplogroup was ostracized from the Verszian culture even if the children's father or mother had Verszian DNA.

General Pinaz brought the Verszians together, and unified through the works and philosophies of Chaizlë. Pinaz was famous for stating that Verszians were the superior race as they came to this land and purged all the previous settlers. During Pinaz's reign, the advocation of blonde hair and red hair women being more desirable, meant that brown haired women were being selected against breeding, as they were considered lower class.

Pinaz died while in office in 1978, despite the fact that the democratic socialist party continued it followed a different path to that of Pinaz. Eugenics is still very much an important topic to Verszians today. free Voluntary DNA testing was stopped in 1981, though voluntary DNA testing clinics remained available and free of charge in some cities to citizens until 1998.

1980's

The early 80's was when the country was reformed to a democratic socialist society, where the general populace could elect a prime minister.

In 1984 genetics testing, tested to find the DNA of King Ariba, the king that bought Verscie together. It was discover that the King had a rare maternal haplogroup. Which was claimed to be the noble lineage. Nationalism, and a strong sense of cultural identity remained in many Verszians. By 1985 it was voted that Verscie would restore the Monarchy, under a constitution. This campaign costed Verszian's millions, till they found 85,000 people with the noble Haplogroup.

The king could not be decided due to so many verszians sharing the same haplogroup. The parliament decided that tenth cousins to the last king in power were eligible to become king, people that had the nobility haplogroup could attain a title, but could not become king. This then lead to the fact that the monarch had to be elected, and could only serve a 10 year term.

When the First monarch was elected in 1987, there was a strong movement for an independent Züri. While this became an issue to the new King, and Verszian parliament it was decided to make the Halsta-Züri region autonomous in 1988. By 1990 the Halsta-Züri region decided it would like to become a principality, in which it followed a similiar guideline to the constitutional for the monarch of Verscie. Thus Verszians that were related tot he noble lineage could become prince of Halsta-Züri or King of Verscie.

2000's

In the early 2000's famous Verszian, Matiö Linsen, became a spotlight in the multimedia. Linsen was famous for having asperger's syndrome. Though he was later named the most influential politican at the turn of the century. Matiö praised the idea of a mimalist government.
