The great Emperor Hiroyuki Nishimura answered the calls of the repressed /his/ communities of 4chan and granted them a homeland. This homeland was called /his/; and it was estimated to have been created in 2015AD (but possibly sometime after that because we couldn't be fucked sourcing). The anons of this board have come together to form a team that represents them in the 4chan Cup, in all their historical, humanitarian and philosophical capacity.
The team - the nation - has successfully taken new territory. They now dig in to prepare for the long and arduous winter campaign towards Moscow, as in the tradition of many historical fuckups before them.

History
2017 Summer Campaign
Prussian Discipline OP; Please nerf Boris
After some concerning results at the end of the Spring Babby cup - their promotion to an elite team notwithstanding - /his/ had some contemplating to do. The Cup Group draw had proven highly unfavourable, with routine heavyweight /asp/ featuring prominently in the group table, in addition to serious contender /s4s/, who were positioned 7th and 16th in team Rankings respectively pre-cup. Comparatively, /his/ was ranked at 42nd. The fourth member of the cup pool, /wg/, was placed at 41st, but the battle-lines were drawn for an arduous contest for /his/ to avoid relegation.
The first skirmish of the campaign began in earnest on the 28th of July against /s4s/. JunoIvanovich, new team manager and Generalissimo, had spoken about the necessity for a Blitzkrieg, and this was proven with vigor as the dashing Bismarck blitzed one past the /s4s/ defensive lines at the 7th minute. A narrow ten-and-something-minutes later came the return fire, with Patrick Bateman capitalising after a botched defensive play to score in the 18th. Determined not to be outdone, The Prussian Prince and his >Holy>Roman doubting counterpart joined forces to sink a pair of goals at 22 and 29 minutes that would see /his/ through the majority of the match. A valiant effort by Keksandra for a cheeky 90+'er was not enough to save the match, and a 3-2 victory was joyously received by the /his/torians.
With the weight of the powerful /s4s/ shed came the prospect of a more evenly-matched team: /wg/. What was not observed, however, was the stunning performance of /wg/ in the face of /asp/, where they had prevailed 2-1 over the heavily-weighted pool favourite.
The confrontation against /wg/ took place two days later on the 30th of July, and /his/ made it clear that, much like the Japanese army in Nanjing, they would take no prisoners. Unfortunately the referee was not in agreement, and promptly BTFO Gauled for a harsh foul, exiling the barbarian to the bench. His difference on the field of battle could not have been more apparent, and a man short, Helios of /wg/ slapped an enlighting shot past the Christian Dark Ages at the 20th minute. The attack failed to galvanise the remaining /his/torians into a solid defence, and at the 27th minute Comfy took the one-man disadvantage and turned it into a 2-0 lead. The return of Gauled and a moment of beauty after halftime by >Holy>Roman>Empire could not save the matter, and /his/ lost narrowly 2-1 despite other scoring opportunities.
The situation was now quite clear. With /wg/ winging its way to a clean sweep of the group and /his/ unable to secure a victory against its closest rival, a win against /asp/ would be their only chance to move on in the cup. With time to rest and study tactics between games, the /his/torians took the field on the night of the 5th of August. What followed was a tightly-woven game of solid defense and a few heartstopping moments for /his/. The first half looked scoreless until, in the 42nd minute, sweeper Sir Arthur "Krispy Krauts" Harris bested Save One Leave One to score at the 42nd minute. /asp/ were in shock, and this state of mind persisted through the break - play had barely resumed before the /his/torians struck again, with >Holy>Roman>Empire adding a handful of incendiaries to Harris' Dresden special at the 52nd minute. From thereon out, the /asp/ force descended into shitposting about WWE. Even in the dying moments, the match escalated in brutality, and a card was issued to >airshit in the 82nd minute for a personal foul. When the battle drew to a close, /his/ was the victor, and had achieved the previously unthinkable - they were, unbelievably, on their way to their first elite knockout cup performance in their first elite cup, having triumphed over pool favourites.
/his/ v /u/ - Round of 16
The /his/torians found themselves in the land of forbidden love for their first game in the knockout of Summer 2017 - a showdown versus the /u/nicorns at St. Michael's Academy. As Charlememe and Empire For Sale took the field, they were reputedly overheard by Juno discussing whether love could bloom, even on the battlefield.
The fecund fields of St. Michael's proved an apt battleground. Not to be dissuaded by strong defense from Goggles and Onee-sama both, >Holy>Roman>Empire began the match by capitalizing on a lighting /his/ offence, bringing the visitors to a 1-0 lead. The celebration was short lived, though, as /u/ responded with several hard strikes from Akkarin - but there was nothing past the Great Wall of China until the end of half-time, when attacking midfielder Purest Form of Love put a header into the top left pocket to bring the half to a close. Animosity on the field began to rise out of a dispute over whether Cleopatra was pure or not, and in the 43rd minute Feito-chan was carded after a savage chop at the legs of Diogenes, who merely laughed off all women as whores and told Feito-chan to get the fuck out of his sunlight.
The second half opened in much the same the first had ended - intense, with heavy attacking in the midfield by /u/ quashing /his/ aggression. A second card, this one for Teru Time, was issued over a dangerous personal foul. Excellent attacking play by Akkarin and Purest Form of Love presented repeated challenges to the /his/ defensive line, and Charlememe looked set to stonewall /his/ to another draw, but a tactics switch-up by /u/ in the nearest closing moments of the match was what ultimately wrought a /his/ defeat. At 84 and 87 minutes, Midfielder Black Sunshine and centre-forward Homucifer struck once apiece to bring the score to 3-1. As was custom, divine Emperor-Coach JunoIvanovich ordered the banzai charge, and Bomber Harris was the first to man the offense, with a goal in extra time; but no amount of 'kys weebs' could revise this history. The match, and /his/'s summer 2017 season, ended with a 3-2 defeat for /his/.

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. |
