The Hetzer Union (Lentian: Hetzerunie), sometimes abbreviated as HU, is a supranational political, economic and linguistic union of five countries. Its member states are located on the Firth of Hetzer (Kipperbaai) in West Uletha. Created on January 1st, 1895, the union focuses on enhancing trade, diplomacy, cultural exchange, science and military power between the member states. The Union has a single internal market and a joint external border force.
Its official languages are Lentian, Atresian, Hemsteiner and Iniscaolic, spoken by approximately 61 million of its inhabitants. The Sonnenburgish and Utterlander dialects are considered protected minority languages.
Overview
History
Since the Middle Ages, cooperation has existed in the Hetzer area. From the Xth century, the Belt trade system originating in Kalm connected coastal towns and cities on the southern shores of the Morcanol Bay and Firth of Hetzer.
A political alliance between the two largest Lentian-speaking countries, Atresia and Lentia, had existed since the 1840s. From the 1880s onwards, Sonnenburg expressed interest in joining as well. This led to negotiations between the three states, ultimately resulting in the formal establishment of the Hetzer Union on January 1st, 1895.
Somewhere after 1910, a unified Utterland applied to join the Union, and was accepted in 19XX.
In the twentieth century, Hemstein joined as the Hetzer Union's fifth member.
In 1932, Iniscaol joined as the Hetzer Union's sixth member.
