Not to be confused with Munster.

Münster starts the game as a Theocracy inside the Holy Roman Empire, in Westphalia. It is bordered by Brunswick, Cologne, Cleves, Gelre, Friesland, East Frisia and Oldenburg. By having three provinces Münster is larger than most of its neighbours, being in an excellent position for expansion in any direction within the Holy Roman Empire.

Decisions[edit]

Form Westphalia

As the ideas of the Enlightenment are sweeping through Europe, we may choose to embrace them ourselves in Westphalia. Our future model state will feature ideas as revolutionary as equal rights for all male population, freedom for serfs and emancipation for the Jews, as well as enabling of free enterprise through abolition of socage and the guilds.

Form German Nation

Regardless of the absence of a strong, central authority, our nation is prospering.

Intellectual growth, combined with sea and overland trading, has also helped spur the development and transform our country into a wealthy manufacturing center.
