Valnorgrad is a micronation founded on July 4, 2006 as a loose affiliation of numerous smaller unorganised nations that came together and formed the Militarist Valnorgrad Confederacy (2006-2008). At the height of the Confederacy actual lands held were 1,000 acres in Texas & 4,000 Wyoming (Land owned Legally). Later forming the Peoples Republic of Valnorgrad (2008-2010), the country began its communist transformation. This era saw a rise in national identity and a pull to form a more centralist government. As years passed though under democratic rule the nation fell into a stagnate state due to political deadlock and general greediness of the elected. With the miss management of this government, and the downfall of the cornerstone of Valnorgrad's economy, holdings of the republic decreased significantly. With the seeming destruction of the Republic in hand the Commanders of the Confederate Legion (military) stepped in to stabalise the nation, and install a government that was "for the people", thus marking the dawn of a new age for the nation.

Etymology
The name of our nation comes from the founding family and their wishes to honor their Germanic and Nordic ancestors
History
The Valnorgrad Confederacy
The original Confederacy was founded on July 4th 2006 incorporating land already held by the founding family. The land was spread out across 2 states and nearly 1300 miles apart. The distance was logistical nightmare for sure. The distance and the sheer size of the nation states made it an impossibility for regular "police" types to patrol and protect efficently, that is why shortly after the founding of the Confederacy it was agreed to govern as a militarist state. This system of governement worked well for the nation and under this rule solidified itself as more than just a bunch small nations with an alliance, but as 1 nation unified for the greater good
The Peoples Republic of Valnorgrad
The peoples Republic began in 2008 when a large majority of citizens wanted democracy. The founding family bowing under pressure, witch was the ruling body as they were the highest ranking military officers, formally declared the confederacy dissolved and reformed into The Peoples Republic of Valnorgrad (2008). The Direct Communist Democracy set us was initially a great success, writing a constitution and giving people rights that could not be infringed upon. The republic under democratic rule decided to re-consolidate the republics holdings into Oklahoma. Thus the sell off of all Republic lands began and the relocation and establishment of a new homeland began in Connerville. The relocation was complete in natural resource rich Connerville as the homeland, and colonies in Coalgate, and Bennington also still having one colony left in DeerCreek Texas, was complete in late 2008. It was not until later it was found the elected elite was blowing through the surplus in the treasury. Following a decline in activity and the elected being disconnected from the general citizenry led to discontent with the government and threat of rebellion.
Modern day Valnorgrad
After a year in termoil the Republic was on the brink of destruction. The same citizens that thought democracy was best, now began to question their judgement. Citizens began to wonder if the militarist rule of old was best. In this time the nations holdings had shrunk to a all time low of 490 acres after the sell off of the 320 acre Bennington colony. The outrage of this act was put into action on july 4th 2010 making a symbolic gesture the top military leaders lead by J. Hargis began a take over of the government. Hargis being a member of the founding family had a legal claim to the government. After a brief civil conflict ( very brief due to the fact that most of the military supported this action except for a small unit of the electoral guard) the commanders of the military established a new position as head of state the SkyMarshal witch was bestowed to J. Hargis.
Government & politics
The first establishment of a centralist government over the confederacy was a militarist council. They prioritized need of the nation and people. Although not the most heart felt government it was effective one. After the transition the government formed into a direct communist democracy. This government was at first a success but, much like our neighbors the United States government, it became miss-managed and soon fell into disaray. Once the military took over upon the citizens request, bestowed the title of SkyMarshal to Hargis. Under this new militarist rule the country began to reorganize into a effective ruling body.
Let one thing be clear, this is a Militarist government but one that protects citizens rights by law. This nation does not condone the suppression of human rights
Law
The law of Valnorgrad was defined by the articles, but only served as guidelines in the Confederacy and the old republic, but under the new SkyMarshal the articles have now been signed into law,to guarantee civil rights, reflecting the SkyMarshal's willingness to rule with a benevolence. The SkyMarshal wishes to show a "human" side to a militarist government, not wanting to be categorized as a ruthless North Korea type. This Nation instead moves to protect citizens rights instead of restricting them.
- The SkyMarshal has signed into effect the Articles of Allegiance, protecting civil rights
As of January,23,2011 10:45 a.m.
- The SkyMarshal has signed the Re-glorification Act into effect. This allows the power of the treasury to be endowed to the SkyMarshal
As of January,26,2011 8:29 p.m.
Foreign relations
Until the new government was installed the country followed a strict isolationist policy, focusing on national identity. But under the new SkyMarshal a new foreign policy is underway to reach out to fellow micronationalist and seek diplomatic relations with those who are willing.
Military
At the head of all forces is the SkyMarshal. At the beginning of this country, the Valnorgrad Confederacy, formed the first centralist militias. Soon after formal military units were formed. The military of modern day Valnorgrad is divided into 3 Confederate Legions. At the head of each legion is a legionary commander. Legionary forces are under modernization, procuring new weapons,supplies,uniforms, and communications. Unlike most nations in the world, this nation arms its military with actual weaponry. This army is possibly the most professional in the micronational world. Also the Confederate Legions are perhaps the most "effective" in real world situations.
Geography & climate
This is a mild climate although in Oklahoma there is terrible ice storms now and again during winter months.The climate in our last remaining Texas colony tends to be alot hotter and drier.Coalgate colonies tend to receive more rainfall than the others. As for the terrain in our land in Oklahoma, it differs from region to region. In the Coalgate colonies, there are heavily wooded areas,and grasslands. In the homeland the terrain still has heavily wooded areas and grasslands, but in some areas large boulders and rocks. In the last remaining Texas colony the terrain is predominantly flat plains like grasslands.
Economy
The economics of Valnorgrad has always been one of rural nature. The livestock has been a cornerstone in the economic make up, As a Dual component of the livestock we have a full line of bucking bulls with bloodlines reaching back to the foundation of the industry. Along with livestock the nation made huge sums on money buying and selling land, and in the housing development field. Along with realestate, under the new SkyMarshal our nation has experienced a boom in the form of labor contracts with United States. This is including working for the government,powerline industry, and additionally over the times the oil and gas industry has brought income to our nation. Under our new leadership, the SkyMarshal is bringing more money into the nation than ever before. Our economic machine is turning and economic growth is increasing at a steady pace. Let this good fortune spur our nation on to bigger and greater things
Culture
Our culture is one not easily explained, it is a "western" culture, that is to say a cowboy or rural way of life. Our values and beliefs reflect this nature. Common sense and what is right instead of what is politically correct is what we try to live our lives by. We are situated in the southern states in the U.S., and we are influenced by this and see things much different than the northerners, ever heard of southern hospitality?. We are a culture that extends a hand of friendship to those who want it, and bring the hammer down on those to go against us.
