History
Pre-Release:
Burger's return
On 2 March 2021, the server crashed and could not be backed up, causing a new version to be released. MrAwsomeBurgers, the leader of Britain in v2, decided to form the Soviet Union. Many of Burger's crew followed him, including Zqppy, Canucke and Hernan. Over time, the nation gained more members, the most famous would soon be RagnarBloodoath, former leader of Rome in v2.
Rivalry with the PLC
The USSR and the PLC border each other and developed a rivalry. It started when Burger tried to convince DODMof of Poland-Lithuania to not claim Finland as it was not a historical polish territory (even though the USSR never did have finland). This developed a fierce rivalry between the two nations, which would rise up to a war ending in a PLC victory after the USSR backed out of Warsaw after being butchered by Danish allies at the siege point.
Dispute with the Russian Empire
Please someone put this idk what was the progression
Post-Release:
Kiev and Border conflict
1 day after the server's release, InfernoTower established the city of Kiev, beating TonyLazutto in doing so. As Ukraine was claimed by the PLC but also the USSR, a border conflict ensued. This conflict saw both sides throw insults at each other and failed diplomacy but an agreement was eventually reached. The Treaty of Kiev was signed, which states that a line will divide the claims of both nations and towns could not claim past the line. Both nations then were in a state of peace. Until...
The Treaty Of Kiev. A copy is in the EPL discord.
War and Tony's cries for returning to Monke
TonyLazutto eventually made the city of Minsk. When it joined the USSR on the 18th of March, the Treaty of Kiev had been violated (Minsk was west of the line). Expulsion from the League of Europe continued, which caused Burger to declare war on the PLC. Meanwhile, Tony went on about how he did not like systems of government as they are very likely to lead to conflicts. He started conspiring and wanted to make an extreme libertarian nation in Nepal. Unfortunately, Quintincan deleted all fantasy nations that existed and ruined Tony's plans.
Meanwhile, MrAwsomeBurgers announced that all building projects would come to a halt and that all members of the nation were to use the outpost in Rhodesia(Zimbabwe) to mine diamonds and netherite. Kiev too set up an outpost, contributing to the nation's armament. Because of all of these, Poland did a France the next day and surrendered. The PLC was to be annexed by the USSR.
19/3/2021, a date to remember
The day Poland capitulated, some members of the PLC started to go on a rage. One of these members was CrucifiX, who didn't like the new treaty. On top of that, VilkasXVII got into a car crash and was unconscious in the hospital, which angered him even further. MrAwsomeBurgers then redeclared war on the PLC, but eventually reached a treaty. The Germans would take cities in the west and the Soviets would take the Baltic states of Latvia and Estonia leaving Lithuania as an independent nation. Poland would be a puppet of the Czechoslovakians, with the cities of Krakow and Danzig in it. In order to punish CrucifiX, the PLC towns will have new mayors from the USSR. This did not go to plan as the PLC later reunited and was helped by allies and drove the USSR out of warsaw, re-securing most of their claims except for the islands in Estonia, and Talinn in estonia.

Monthly plans
5 Minecraft years is approximately 1 irl month so this works.
For the first month of EarthPol, Burgers has laid out goals to improve the nation's infastructure. Many are obvious like having more members but some of the other ones include the construction of the theatre and development of factories in Western Russia and Ukraine. So far, all towns have some sort of crop farm and animal farm and the theatre is currently being constructed.
