Schleswig, officially the County of Schleswig, is a feudal county under the German Empire. The county is known for its simple yet quaint architecture and the area's abundance of natural flora.
Establishment and the Schleswig Question
Schleswig was established on June 20th, 2025 by 84841 following his departure from the town of Metz. Shortly after its creation, 84841 became the first self-declared Count of Schleswig as the head of the nascent House von Schleswig. The area was chosen for its coastline, abundant supply of wood, and nearby flat and arable terrain.
Later in the day, a petition for the incorporation of Schleswig into the neighboring German Confederation was initiated. After an hour and a half of discussions and 84841's refusal to relocate from the area in order to comply with the German government's plans, the petition was ultimately rejected.
The petition's rejection marked the beginning of the county's uncertain position which became known as the Schleswig Question, where the county continued to seek membership within the German Confederation despite the latter's position against it.
On June 22nd, Schleswig was accepted into the German Confederation before immediately being expelled from it.
On June 27th, the Schleswig Question was resolved following the passing of a bill in the German Reichstag which saw Schleswig re-accepted into the Confederation.
Famine Period
On June 21st, the world saw the beginning of an event known as the Global Famine. Despite much of the world coming to a grinding halt, Schleswig remained relatively unaffected due to its small agricultural sector and plentiful stockpile of food. Upon the famine's conclusion two days later, agricultural expansion in the county resumed.
SAGE-19 Pandemic
On June 23rd, a virus later classified as SAGE-19 originated to Schleswig's northeast in the neighboring Danish State. Following the virus's spread and the resulting pandemic, Schleswig's rate of development experienced a sharp decline as social isolation increased. The county experienced multiple attempts at biological warfare from independent actors and the Danish State, with the latter resulting in a skirmish that caused minor damage.
Feuding States Period
On June 29th, Crimson_Praetor, mayor of the town known as The Lego Watch, proceeded to destroy a majority of the vegetation between it and Schleswig before later destroying most the North Frisian Islands to the west of the peninsula. Despite the islands being restored, this action set off a fierce internal rivalry within the state, and the only explanation given was that the islands contained deadlier plagues and that their destruction was for the safety of Europe.
On June 30th, Crimson_Praetor was observed claiming a salient along the coastline towards Schleswig. Combined with a torch border established up to Schleswig's immediate boundary, these actions were seen as a threat to Schleswig's interests in the region and immediately sparked a scramble to secure as much territory as possible. After a successful bid to request funding from the German government, 84841 launched a campaign of rapid territorial acquisition southward and secured swaths of land in the area.
The sudden push southward caused panic in The Lego Watch, and Crimson_Praetor acted to block Schleswig's continued expansion southward; though all of the territory 84841 sought to claim had already been acquired. Later in the day, the island of Sylt was acquired for Schleswig, ending the territorial acquisitions for the day.
On July 1st, Crimson_Praetor withdrew from a small area to The Lego Watch's, now Flensburg's, northeast, prompting 84841 to start another bid for government funding. After being approved again, both the abandoned area and the island of Amrum were acquired for Schleswig, and with them came the end of the county's expansion southward.
On the same day, the town of Kiel began to acquire land up to Flensburg's southern boundary in order to secure its own interests, which eventually led to the consolidation of most of Schleswig-Holstein and the steady freezing of Schleswig and Flensburg's rivalry.
The rivalry effectively came to an end following Crimson's inactivity, and was officially resolved following Flensburg's direct incorporation into Schleswig on September 28th.
Silent Realm Period
Schleswig eventually became inactive alongside the rest of the German Empire, seeing the cessation of nearly all development and territorial expansion. This period lasted several months, and was paired with the Kingdom of Denmark's steady rise to becoming a regional power in its own right. This saw Schleswig briefly become the target of Danish requests for its purchase, and its southern neighbor of Hamburg drifted into the Danish realm after its local government collapsed due to inactivity.
Castellan Revival Period
On September 18th, the County of Schleswig experienced a formal revival following the initiation of the Castellan Project. Due to the German Empire's continued inactivity, Schleswig petitioned to join the Kingdom of Denmark while maintaining its legal status as a part of the German state of Hanse. Schleswig was officially established as a condominium between both nations later that day.
On September 28th, the town of Flensburg was directly incorporated into Schleswig, and the Flensburg Wall was torn down.
Following the incorporation of Flensburg, the revival period came to an end after the county's renewed fervor died down, resulting in another cessation of development.
Return to Germany
Around one month later, 84841 stepped down as Count of Schleswig and handed the governance of the county over to HamHamHam_, who oversaw the full re-integration of Schleswig into Germany and the subsequent end of its condominium status.
