((OOC: Urchinia, for the purposes of this RP, I am refering to you as Zeeëgeland which I will use interchangably with Urchinia. You may RP the revolutionists while I will RP the Loyalists which is about 5% of your population.)
In the province of Friesland, in the Dutch Kingdom of the Benelux, there are a group of islands, known as Zeeëgeland. In the Dutch language, Zeeëgel means Sea Urchin, a tiny prickley sea animal popular in the area. A debate has been stirred up as to whether or not Zeeëgelish or Urchinian is a dialect of West Frisian or its own language and if it is its own language whether it is spoken widely enough to be recognised as official in the province of Friesland.
This has lead to many inhabitants of Zeeëgeland to oppose the absolute monarchy and feudlaistic regime in place in the Benelux and start a separatist movement. How successful this movement will be and whether it will lead to a new province or further freedom is all up for debate as the first revolutionists go around trying to gain supporters to their cause. There has been no reaction as of yet from His Royal Majestic Highness although if this doesn't blow over one can definetly expect something.
