Jack

Jack is a Dutch micronationalist who is currently active in The Brettish Isles, Shireroth, Flanders and Stormark. He is known under multiple aliases, the most well known of them being Jack Mounford, Jack Lewis, Jack Vröml and Jack Lewis.

Pre-Micran endeavours

Before becomming active in the Micran sector on a large scale in 2012, Jack was already a micronationalist. As a 13-year-old, he founded the Kingdom of Castrigia in 2007, a nation that existed untill 2011 although it knew large periods of inactivity. During his journey through the micronational core, Jack became aquinted with some well known micronationalists and participated in international discussion forums on the subject. As King of Castrigia, Jack learned about the Kingdom of Batavia, where he had some diplomatic interaction and later became a citizen. Due to other interest and real life duties, this period of Batavian activity ended rather soon.

Jack Mounford

In 2012, Jack decided to return to micronationalism. Quite understandably, he returned to the Kingdom of Batavia again. Sadly, the best times of the Kingdom were forgotten and gone. The Batavia as he had known when he was a citizen the first time was no longer there. Following his old time micronational friend Jonas, Jack became a citizen of Southbatavia, a nation that recently succeeded from Batavia.

The first character that Jack created was Jack Mounford, head of the newly established order of the Knights Templar, a Catologian order that protected the faith. A citadel was erected and a new, militaristic, side of the Catologian faith was born.

After the Juan rebellion in Southbatavia, the Order was weakened. Together with some important businessmen and officers in the Southbatavian army, he sailed to unknown lands.

The island they landed was the Island of Maraguo, or as the local Celtic tribes called it: Calbion. Mounford stumbled upon a divided nation. The south was still very Maraguan, but the north was under control of the larger population of the celtic tribe of the Calbain. With the help of Jingdaoese forces, Mounford united the country and placed it under Southbatavian controll. He himself was declared Count of Calbion. But that didn't prevent the Maraguan population to rise up agains the, mainly Calbain, government. This resulted in a bloody uprising that was dealt with accurately by the Calbain and Southbatavian forces. Subsequently, Jack Mounford recieved the title of Prince of Calbion. The reign of Jack Mounford saw large cultural development on the Island and the Calbain culture reached new hights. The title of Prince was changed to King in the later part of Mounford's reign.

Several incidents occured however which created a schism between Calbion and the Southbatavian mainland. The first incident was the rocket launching site. The Emperor wanted to create a rocketbase on the isle of faenor, but the local residents protested against this. Mounford was unable to prevent the creation of this site and had to settle for an aircraft base which also included the rocket facility. The second incident was the raid of the Calbionese pirate Callaghan of a Natopian trading ship and of a Natopian holiday facility for homosexuals. The cruelty which the pirate showed towards his victims led to a diplomatic crisis between Calbion and Natopia. This was only enlargened by the crash of a Natopian airplane on a Calbionese square afterwards.

No longer wishing to submit themselves to the rule of the despotic Empress Sisera, The Calbain rised up in a rebellion against Jingdao. A declaration of independence was handed in and Jingdaoese soldiers were killed. Sisera reacted by attacking Calbion in full scale, destroying large parts of the country and killing the large majority of the population. A desolate and post-apocalyptic landscape was all that remained of the once proud land.

Maraguo Rising

Subsequently, the

The Brettish Isles
