Hispanic Kingdomball

Hispanic Kingdomball will be the remnants of the old Greater Spain.

The Kingdom was known in Europe still as a Crusader state that managed to survive through the Crusader Crisis. This because there was no peaceful transition between the old Crusader state of Greater Spainball to a new one, the result was the bloody First Iberian Wars.

Formation
With the collapse of Greater Spain, ultranationalist reactionary monarchists prevented the formation of a federal republic in which "Spain" by itself wouldn't exist anymore. They declared all regional borders to be false and tried to refound Greater Spain by restoring the monarchy.

They got support from a lot of people in the middle of a wave of anti-Spanish and pro-separatism/regionalism sentiment, calling on the people to fight a holy war against every enemy of christ and the motherland (communists and separatists in general). Unfortunately, their speech managed to succeed and they got more support than the so called Castilian leftists, taking Madrid and starting a new chapter of the conflict in the Iberian peninsula.

Even knowing about their ultraconservative ideology, both American Empireball and EAPball initially sent arms and supported the monarchists as they believed they would still be better than the communists. It was with these arms that they could seriously organized its military forces. The cooperation between the Spanish monarchists and the atlanticists however ended with the end of the war.

Second and Third Phase of the Iberian Wars
The rest of the old Spanish regions didn't accept the monarchist victory against the socialists in Castile and launched all a joint attack against it that ended up failing as the monarchists had appealed to catholic rhetoric and Spanish nationalism in regions where regionalism was still not that strong as in Catalonia and the Basque country, so they gained the sympathy of the locals. At the end the monarchists took Asturias, Extremadura, Murcia, Aragon, Leon.

With their victory in resisting the military offensive of all the rest of the leftist front, the monarchists attempted to reunite old Spain and attacked Catalonia, Galicia, Andalusia and the Basque country, the only remaining regions they didn't directly occuppy. Even having success in Galicia and Andalusia, the monarchists were defeated by the Catalans and Basques because beside not having the support of the locals, they underestimated the power of their opponents. The industry in Catalonia was the less affected by the war in all of Iberia, meanwhile the monarchists ended up destroying most factories and industries in Castile and other nearby regions during the battles in the second phase because of workers strikes and revolts that led the socialists to occuppy it.

The military defeat of the monarchists in Catalonia allowed the Galicians and Andalusians to launch a joint attack to repeal their troops from their regions. Then, the war stopped with foreign interventions, as now the kingdom feared that a new planned communist offensive would take place to siege Madrid after they failed to take Catalonia. The high number of casualties they had together with the quicker capacity of recovering really made the kingdom fear a new offensive, and that was a reason for their acceptance of the peace agreements at the end.

Post-War years
The peace agreements made most of its supporters disappointed, which led to many switch from the ultraconservative monarchist ideology to a civic nationalist one that was pro-EAPball, as it seemed to be much more plausible to unite Spain with their help than to continue believing into the crazy illusions the monarchists created at their heads. As a result of this, political persecution grew with the king closing the parliament and declaring everyone that sympathizes with the EAP an "heretic under influence of the devil" subjected to inquisition trials and exorcism sections, the last was just a fancy name for torture.

The kingdom was literally a medieval state where inquisition trials were taking place, a practice that was not even used by the Holy Roman Empireball or the New Papal Statesball. Their existence couldn't be tolerated by the EAPball that had worked hard to make Europe a liberal and modern continent after the Future Holy War.

They had no allies at the end. Initially some far-right Valencian nationalists that used to fight against the Republic of Greater Cataloniaball were aligned with Madrid, but after the economic situation worsened and the king was unable to continue supplying them, the Valencians quickly stopped supporting the monarchy and criticized it, aligning with the EAPball instead. The kingdom would occasionally trade with the Republic of Padaniaball, or with the Neapolitan-Sicilian Republicball as they all were against communism and the EAP. However, beside it being in a very small scale as none of these republics were stupid enough to just give things to the kingdom, the king itself despised them for being too secular and anti-clericalist.

Clogged with sanctions and blockades, unable to trade with other nations, the already weak economy went from bad to worse and poverty and misery became widespread. As was said before most of its industry was destroyed during the war and they couldn't rebuild it because of the sanctions. This led to massive uprisings and strikes, but the king that lived in the luxury with his retarded ideas decided to strength reppression, saying the monarchists would win no matter what and that christ himself would descend from the heavens and unite Spain again.

The monarchy ended up couped after sections of the army had enough of that bullshit and defected to the side of the opposition. The king tried to escape but not even the Papal States accepted his requests and excommunicated him. The pope recognized the new government in Spain and gave it his bless for a new era. At the end the fall of the kingdom accelerated the fall of the socialist republics in the Iberian peninsula, as now most of Spain was at the side of the EAPball.
