Unterdrückung was founded on February 16, 1977 after East Germany and several other Soviet satellites declared independence after Moscow had succumbed to NATO forces just three weeks prior. The Socialist Labor party, then in power and led by Joseph Brühl, dismantled the East German government, arresting soviet agents and introduced a new constitution declaring Unterdrückung a sovereign state. By February 23 the constitution provided by the Socialist Labor party had been ratified by the parliament and by February 27 the U.N. officially recognized Unterdrückung's sovereignty.
