History
Continentia was an independent country for many centuries. The inhabitants lived mainly in the mountain area, where they held horses and worked on fields. In the meantime, the neighboring country Spila (then constituted solely of Capitalia and Indipendia) became a well-known trading paradise and one of the economic most-stabile countries in the region. That's why many Continentians emigrated to Spila. The country became poorer and poorer, while Spila kept on strengthening. Finally, the Government of Continentia decided to unite the country with Spila. The other side accepted it and the official uniting of the two states was on 24. June 1843. Continentian people were shown as great and brave warriors in the wars over Eastern Escotia.
