== Best Nation ==
== Kingdom of Cuba ==


Best Nation is a powerful and prosperous nation located in the Great Realm, founded in 2025. It has quickly gained recognition for its strong economic system, large population, and vibrant political landscape. The nation was founded by the visionary leader, President John Doe, and has been home to many notable citizens and dynamic cities, including Besttown, its capital.
The **Kingdom of Cuba** was a powerful and economically thriving nation in EarthPol Version 6, founded and led by **MrTytanic**. Originally established as a **progressive democratic republic**, Cuba quickly rose to regional prominence before transforming into an **absolute monarchy** under MrTytanic’s rule. It played a major role in geopolitical affairs, particularly in the Caribbean, and maintained alliances, economic innovation, and military operations until the version's end.


== History ==
== History ==


=== '''Early History''' ===
=== '''Founding and Democratic Era''' ===
Cuba began as a **democratic republic**, boasting a **bicameral parliament** with a five-member Senate, five-member House, and MrTytanic as the tiebreaker. Its early politics focused on post-SPQM regional recovery and cautious diplomacy.


==== Formation and Founding ====
=== '''Imperial Coup and Transformation''' ===
On January 1, 2025, Best Nation was officially established following a series of negotiations between various groups in the region. President John Doe, who had been a key figure in the discussions, was elected as the nation's first leader. The founding of Best Nation marked the beginning of a new era of stability and growth in the Great Realm. The initial focus was on creating a government structure, establishing national security, and developing a sustainable economy.
After frustrations with the parliament’s refusal to expand following the collapse of SPQM, MrTytanic **overthrew the legislature in a private coronation ceremony**, declaring himself Emperor. The **population was initially indifferent**, but **welcomed the economic growth and stability** that followed.


==== Expansion and Early Conflicts ====
=== '''Expansion and Economic Boom''' ===
By March 2025, Best Nation began to expand its territory by establishing the town of Prosperity Heights, which later became one of the nation's major economic hubs. During this period, the nation faced its first significant conflict with neighboring factions, leading to the first war of Best Nation's history. Despite early struggles, Best Nation emerged victorious, securing its borders and consolidating its power.
Under Emperor MrTytanic’s rule, Cuba annexed **former SPQM towns** and established **colonies**. Inspired by **Roman imperial systems**, Cuba **funneled resources from the provinces to the capital**, Havana. Its **automated cactus farm** and **the Cuban Corner shop** became cornerstones of its economic success.


=== '''Mid-History''' ===
=== '''Geopolitics and Military Affairs''' ===
Cuba allied with **Cascadia**, and briefly joined Vespa in opposition to **Homestead**, participating in **siege warfare** and **Cold War tensions**. It remained diplomatically active, balancing alliances while expanding colonial influence.


==== The Great Union Era ====
=== '''Decline and End of V6''' ===
In June 2025, Best Nation joined the Great Union, a coalition of nations seeking mutual prosperity and peace. This decision was a turning point in Best Nation's history, as it allowed for greater diplomatic reach, economic growth, and military alliances. The nation’s influence in the region expanded as a result, and several cities, including Victoryville, were founded during this time.
