The Grand Duchy of Bench-Fraction was a Grand Duchy within Ancient Willow Krai, in the Tsarist Empire of Gishabrun.

History

The area on which Bench-Fraction stood was about 5/6ths of The Bench, previously claimed by the Unnamed Empire. On the 20th of July, 2010, Gishabrun declared war on the Unnamed Empire, and eventually captured The Bench from Unnamed grasp. On the 23rd of September, 2010, HIM Tsar Kuri I granted The Right Honorable, Ambassador Sovetus I this peerage for his hard work in Gishabrun.

The Grand Duchy of Bench-Fraction was disestablished by an amendment to the Peerage Creation Act on May 16, 2011, which created a meritocratic peerage system in the Empire.

Geography

The Grand Duchy of Bench-Fraction took up approximately 1 square metres of space, comprising five sixths of The Bench. It bordered Ancient Willow Krai on all sides. It had the same climate as the rest of Ancient Willow Krai. Probably the only interesting thing in this principality was The Bench, the previously disputed strip of land that became the site of the Bench War.

Flag

The flag of the Grand Duchy of Bench-Fraction was based on the Somewhere Oblast flag. The background is green and the corners have red triangles, which is the design of the Somewhere Oblast flag. There are two Gishabruni compasses on each side of the flag, a symbol present in many Gishabruni flags. In the middle, in a blue circle, the bench is shown with the words "BENCH" and "FRACTION" above and below it. Under the bench, there should be an "S" and 4 dots, which is 10/12 (5/6) in Roman Numerals (this is because during the Bench War, 5/6ths of the bench was part of the Unnamed Empire).
