European Union
The EU was created in the 1920s.
Fortem decided to leave the EU in 9 October, 1978 to become truly independent, however, the entire European Union had to vote on it, to decide if they think Fortem is fit enough to leave. At the beginning, they were very hesitant, because Fortem was a relatively young country of less than 40 years. Fortunately Fortem gained enough votes to leave, but on a trial basis. They had 10 years to prove that they could handle being out of the EU, and if not, they would return. If Fortem could not handle being out of the EU within 10 years, or even crashed economically, they would have to return to the EU and if things got really bad, reunite with Italy.
At the start when the new currency came out, worries about currency destabilization and market crashes were unfounded and within just 6 years Fortem became one of the richest countries in Europe.
