Tulpfloerdam, officially know as "Het Koninkrijk van Tulpfloerdam" or "The Kingdom of Tulpfloerdam", is a city-state nation located in the Northern part of the 1.15 map. Tulpfloerdam was the 3rd city on the 1.15 map to gain warp status (Following [[Montmorency]] and applying for warp the same day as Dixieville). The city is a Dutch city with heavy inspiration from Amsterdam, Haarlem, and Den Haag (The Hague).[[File:Canal 2 (Thanks Naid).png|thumb|'''''Het Hoofdkanaal''''' ''(The Main Canal)'' is the main canal that flows through historic downtown Tulpfloerdam.|link=https://wiki.projectcitybuild.com/wiki/File:Canal_2_(Thanks_Naid).png]] | Tulpfloerdam, officially know as "Het Koninkrijk van Tulpfloerdam" or "The Kingdom of Tulpfloerdam", is a city-state nation located in the Northern part of the 1.15 map.

Tulpfloerdam, while having a long and tragic past, has thrived in the 21st century. Being reliant on foreign investment and trade, Tulpfloerdam is seen as one of the most friendliest and workable countries on the map. People come from far and wide to visit the city and its historic Downtown, Kathedraal Zuigen, University of Tulpfloerdam, and many more locations. Tulpfloerdam has very close ties with neighboring Cascadia and ships flowers off to Portland, Cascadia as thank you gifts for protecting Tulpfloerdam and being a close ally. | Tulpfloerdam, while having a long and tragic past, has thrived in the 21st century.

=== World War II and the Bavarians === | |||
In World War II, Germans that tried to flee their country couldn't go anywhere in Europe. Most of them fled to the Americas, which has different cultures set with different values and languages. While there is a large German diaspora in the Americas, there is a small group of Bavarians that got on a boat and journeyed into a land of mystery, wonder, and beauty. The first group of Bavarians arrived in Tulpfloerdam at the beginning of the war in 1940. At the end of World War II, about 120 Bavarians had landed in Tulpfloerdam. These German-speaking people had a hard time integrating themselves into a city that had lost its identity years ago. A mix of Dutch and English made it hard for the Bavarians to understand what was happening. Most of these Bavarians lived near each other and formed the "Stad-Beieren" or the "Bavarian Town" of Tulpfloerdam. There was an entire block of Bavarian owned shops, restaurants, and houses near the Parliament House. Sadly, a group of Anti-Immigration Rioters set ablaze to Stad-Beieren in March of 1954. These rioters were never caught. | |||
In the 1960's, the Tulpfloerdam government helped rebuild Stad-Beieren in a Bavarianesq Style. Nowadays, the remaining Bavarian-Tulpen community its known for actively participating in the Tulpfloerdam food scene, opening and expanding Dutch-Tulpen food palette. With Bavarians being apart of Tulpfloerdam history for some time, German (Bavarian Dialect) is now openly available and is a popular foreign language schoolkids take. | |||
