The Royaume Démocratique du Histalpol (Democratic Kingdom of Histalpol) or Isles Of Histalpol, better known as Histalpol is a Democratic Kingdom located to the north east of Europe sharing a border with the UK, with France and Sainte-Croix to the south of it, Leeonia to the west of the country and the Republic of Ireland to the north.

History

Iron Age
During the British Iron Age, agriculture spread through most of mainland Histalpol with the use of new iron ploughs and axes. It was at this time that the major island off the coast of what would become Cornwall was beginning to be colonised on the east shores of the island by the Celtic culture and peoples, especially by the Cornish and the Welsh, which created a new language on the island once settled which was a split off from the Gaelic Language which then softened in speak into the language known as Histalian. The island was called Bhruacha Glas which translated from Gaelic translated to green shores, because of the then forested lands of the island reaching all the way to the shore where the settlers landed.

English Civil War and French Intervention
Royalists took the eastern mainland section of Histalpol (then a part of England) at the start of the English Civil War in 1642, especially the coastal areas the continued to gain ground to the north past where modern day Histalpol would border the UK but possession tipped there being the time when the Parliamentarians took back land to the north of the UK and before 1644 was over, the commanders based in Southern England where Histalpol would be, but smaller now from the taking over, instead of surrendering they declared independence in the fear of being killed and averting a massacre in that area of the UK.

At first it was un-accepted by all countries as an official country, but as England advanced on their position, showing recklessness in wanting to take the land, they quickly forged a deal with the French to become a foreign territory of the French colonial empire feeling that they would insure safety from the English. The name was picked originally as Mendilibér, a collapsed name of mendiants libérer, meaning "beggars release" being that their joining to France was the action taken to insure safety of the people. This did work as the Parliamentarians ceased their advances and Mendilibér continued to be a French territory until 1765 when it was taken back by the British.

The French requested that the new country would have a new monarchy, under rule of a Duke, but swear to the King of France, which at the time of the colonisation was Louis XIV of France. Mendilibér would have to become a duchy of France. They also requested the use of Mendilibér's armed forces if needed since most of the Royalist armies were in the country and now were unemployed, they also requested agricultural products, in return the French will protect Mendilibér from any invading armies.

Regions of Medilibér

Mendilibér was involved in the Seven Years War which, because of the fact of being a French Territory previously being from Britain caused it to become a vulnerable asset of France which was evident when Mendilibér was blocked from France during a blockade of trade and troops from France by the British in the Channel. Soldiers couldn't fight the front line as it was French soldiers who had morale crushed and ammunition in short supply as well as food and Mendilibér's troops were off fighting elsewhere in Europe. An attempt to assist Medilibér ended with it being a bad tactic and was finally ended with the Treaty of Paris.

After that came a civil war against the British rule of the country who treated Medilibér as inferior. The public started riots and as the army retaliated with force, it created more riots and fighting and caused the French, to assist with the rioters, both agreeing that this was an act that wasn't needed. This war lasted for 6 years in which much of Mendilibér was destroyed but independence was finally gained in 1783 in which they immediately changed name to the First Republic of Histalpol.

Harrow's War
Harrow's War is a war that spanned from 1792-1798 and consisted of the then Chancellor Edward Harrow who was brought into office in 1792. This was in a time when Histalpol planned to become a major power in Europe which included only a few campaigns before Harrow was stopped by the French First Republic and Second British Empire in 1798. This though gained the main island that is in current Histalpol as well as advanced further into the British Empire, taking up most of the "leg" of Britain.

The first attack was a regicide against the monarch of Histalpol to proclaim absolute control over the country. The queen at the time Queen Héléna II was killed in the attack but the family were saved from the attack. The first movement to creating the empire was aimed at the main island of Histalpol, at the time belonging to the French First Republic, at which they managed to control at least half before the French intervened and stopped Harrow's advance across the island while stopping any more naval ships from approaching the island causing some of the largest battles in the War's history. But half the island was taken and kept until the full island was gained at the end of WW2. All the while Harrow was moving east up the British Empire, taking land as he went, when he was opposed with the British army close to the Somerset border, which Harrow won and continued with taking over a section of neighbouring county Dorset before finally being stopped by the British and the French working together to halt the advance. The land was not given back despite attempts from both armies to invade in later years.

Floods of 1820
The Floods of 1820 was a continuous year of flooding from 1820 to 1821 killed over 50% percent of the population at the time, as it was a nation wide natural disaster. The year started with masses of snow from December to January which then melted and flooded the banks causing floods to many Histalian rivers, often flooding settlements and ruining crops to be picked in the spring season that had grown over winter. The weather then turned worse with the harshest rainfall recorded currently in Histalpol where a storm train with multiple massive thunderstorms producing between slightly over 2,600 kg and just under 1,400 kg of rain across 5 storms in quick succession. The average mean of the amount of rain produced in the storm train is around 10,000 kgs over what was then Histalpol. The groundwater reached it's maximum absorbency and the remaining water added onto the flooded rivers that still failed to subside from the heavy snowfall the previous winter.

In the summer when the floods had finally subsided, crops had failed to grow and multiple settlements had been wiped off the map by the floods. The abundance of food and cattle, which had also died in the floods also caused a mass starvation for the remaining year until crops grew back next year. In this year, the starvation and the floods caused the deaths of 10,122 of the 20,157 over the year. The country never fully recovered until the Steam Era in the 1850s, it being around 30 years of slowly recovering from the large scale floods.

Steam Era
See Also: Histalpol Empire

The Steam Era spanned from 1857 to 1900 following the reign of Queen Victoria in the British Victorian Era in which Histalpol adopted much of the technology and architecture of the era from the United Kingdom. This including Steam Technology, adopted at a later stage than the UK. This boosted the economy of Histalpol as well as make the islands more attractive as a stop-off between North Western Europe and the rest of the world, giving a viable stop opposed to the UK.

The Era also brought on much ability to trade as travel was quicker and more efficient to carry loads thus leading to multiple Trade Routes with multiple eastern countries. This being a major contributor to the economic boom experience in major cities in Histalpol.

Yet in rural villages and farms, the Irish Potato Famine of 1847 also had a great effect on them because of a dependency on irish Potatoes at that time in most households. This severely reduced the population of Histalpol while the citizens living in major cities were getting constantly richer from steam-powered and foreign trade. This also lead to many protests against the government and a rush to start planting carbohydrates, during which the government at that time was kicked out of office and the only Vote of No Confidence for all other governments were issued in the emergency vote. The repercussions of the famine lasted until 1910 with the Steam Era ending and the dawn of WW1 Appearing.

WW1
Histalpol entered the war in 1912 alongside France and the UK on the allies side of the war, the war never reached land on Histalpol and was mainly fought in trenches as with most allied countries. The invention of revolving turrets were a game changer as manufacturing of the turrets, in part with France, meant that holding off enemy forces were easier than other countries. This also helped Histalpol get out of the Irish Potato Famine as money could be gained with the production of ammo, weapons, turrets and armour.

WW2
Histalpol was introduced into WW2 as Nazi forces captured a few small and minor islands off of Histalpol, yet frighteningly close to mainland Histalpol before the Blitz in Britain, this encourages the Histalian Army on the mainland and the remaining uncaptured islands to get up naval and land blockades, also adopting the Blackout methods London took during the Blitz period meaning bombing decreased yet major crimes increased such as robbery, assault, and at maximum murder leading to insecurity of the method. The blockades were known as the "Mobile Border"

The deadliest battle occurred in 1941 in the sea between Sainte Croix and Histalpol as an invading group of Axis navy and air force soldiers approached main land Histalpol on the largest island. Histalpol lost the battle and the island was taken yet mainland Histalpol on the UK landmass remained. With the Axis loss, the land that previously belonged to Histalpol was given back yet with that came the rise in organised crime from soldiers who joined the war going to crime to continue the extreme life style, to regain respect from the public and to also keep a steady flow of money to the family as no money was able to be supplied to the families of the soldiers during the war.

Decades of Suspension
As The Troubles in Ireland got increasingly worse, multiple organised crime groups spotted a chance to stablish more money for their doings. This was done in 2 forms, one being the illegal shipping of weapons and bomb materials to the many branches of the IRA, but also a more dangerous form of gaining money through blackmail and the results of multiple attacks, taking inspiration from the Troubles and how minimum causalities were dealt while multiple attacks occurred on the same week, if not then the same day. They planned to piggy-back off of the terrorist attacks in Ireland and United Kingdom by setting up their own terrorist attacks in Histalpol to blackmail companies to stop attacks on them, and to create fear in the public so they'd buy guns and weapons from the organised crime units as well as making local governments pay them not to attack upcoming events, but usually no lives were lost as the local police were always warned of the attack before the bomb detonated, so they evacuated the area, but this wasn't always the case.

On multiple occasions mass loss of life was given including the attack in 1977 as the worst attack in the decade with public transport being targeted including stations, bridges, tracks, tunnels and buses. This was thought to have been performed by a spin-off group with no fear to cause deaths to get across the point better. Multiple trains were derailed from the bombs leading to a death toll of above 100, especially with 2 mainline trains being 2 of the many targets. After these attacks the amounts of attacks decreased but the amounts of deadly attacks with fatalities rose as the spin-off groups gained a foothold on other groups who couldn't be taken seriously with no deaths to their bombings.

In 1990, the government at the time started a crack-down on organised crime and it has decreased dramatically but has not gone from current life. This concluded with a ceasefire from the remaining cells in August 21st 1992 in the Forstole Agreement. There are still groups around in terrorism but they have kept quiet since, and organised crime in other factions such as prostitution, smuggling and the occasional murder.

The Black Depression
The Black Depression started as foreign companies gained more notoriety and gained a larger foothold through the 90s. This with cheaper labour, quicker production and cheaper to buy forced many Histalian companies to go into administration or pulled out of Histalpol and set up elsewhere. This also lead to protests over larger foreign companies setting up factories in Histalpol which in turn lead to less productivity of the workers. Histalian made products dipped lower than it has ever been.

Few Histalian companies remain after the depression ended in 2002 including car manufacturer PLA and furniture supplier Marlstone Home Servicing. The companies that remained lost many workers from the protests and the political party Histalpol Parti Isolationist gained seats in the 1992 election and won the election with their selected candidate becoming Chancellor Hayden Bolton who was renound for being really harsh on foreign policies, relations, and basically making Histalpol an isolated country from any other imports. This had benefits and limitation including the fact that companies had to be reborn and made in general to fill in gaps in the market, but also meant that exports to other countries would be more costly. This policy ended in 2008 when Borgia Malstrone took over the roll.

The isolation technique worked as the new companies meant that produce increased, unemployment decreased and larger companies did set up in Histalpol. But this also scarred the reputation of Histalpol slightly before Malstrone helped to regain relations with most countries.

Modern Day
As Al-Qaeda attacked the London transport system. Histalpol felt a need to improve secturity all over Histalpol, because of the border to the UK and potential risk of terrorist attacks now in the public's eye. This resulted in the prevention of a possible deadly attack on Histalpol by a Lone Wolf planning a bombing against the current governments involvement in British affairs. This was planned to be during a football match in Renné and would have killed mass amounts of spectators with more than 32,000 people in the stadium.

Despite these increases, in 2010 a bomb detonated in the car-park of Bastilia International Airport with the car being placed by a revealed taxi-way in an attempt to cause as many deaths on planes as possible, This was not what happened, but the detonation still collapsed part of the airport building as the car parked right by the terminal building and killed 16 people. The group responsible wasn't found but it is thought that it was a spin-off of the Righteous Independence Legion and the Lone Wolf from the 2005 stadium plot who wanted in a combined aim to reinstall a royal family to control the country. The attack is under investigation to this day.

In 2012/13 Histalpol gained attention politically from the elections which ended with a surprise win for the Liberal Democrats who was led by Timothy Small who is the current Chancellor. He promised to join a union before 2013 ended as well as make Histalpol the country of culture with emphasis on the arts, architecture history etc. to attract tourism to the country. Since then, Histalpol has entered AINVision in which they got joint 13th, they have assisted in union matters, and have been victim to a 3rd major terrorist incident in 13 years in which 38 people were killed. They have also joined in on an economic union with neighbours Leeonia and Sainte-Croix called the Lehicro Economic Community as well as joining the Liberal Monarchist Bloc.

Composition
The country consists of one connected landmass onto the British Isles and 5 other islands, one large and 4 smaller islands with one large city on each. The islands consist of Beracha Glas, Saint Fledling Island and 3 others. Water-bodies officially titled inside the Histalian borders include the Baso Channel which separates Wales from the coast of Hawsfordshire, Shorlat and Jolanchestire. The Loove Renné Straight connects Port Loove on Beracha Glas to the old capital of Renné on the mainland section. To the far west of the country, the only other 2 named water bodies are the Bay of Caér and Le Maítresse or The Mistress as called for it's rough seasons by many sailers travelling between the islands to the west of the country.

The largest island in Histalpol is known as Beracha Glas, which in the old language of Histalian was translated exactly into Green Shores by the original Celtic inhabitants who settled on the east shore closest to mainland Histalpol.

Government
The Republic of Histalpol has a parliamentary government based on a modified Western European parliamentary model which the basic form is used in countries such as Spain, Germany and Switzerland. The parliament of Histalpol that meets in the Parliament Square has two houses called the Major Exposition Hall and the Minor Exposition Hall, these being similar to the House of Commons (Minor Exposition Hall) and the United Kingdom's Cabinet (Major Exposition Hall). The Minor Exposition Hall can only be reached by being elected in, and the Major Exposition Hall can only be reached if they are selected to be a minister in the current government, in which they also have to resign their place in the Minor Exposition Hall.

The The Right Honourable Timothy Small, leader of the Lib Dems is the current Chancellor since 23 November 2012. For elections to the Minor Exposition Hall, Histalpol is currently divided into 565 constituencies, each electing a single member of parliament by "Two-ballot" plurality system where each election has 2 rounds of voting to ensure the winner gains a majority of votes. General elections are by law to be held every 4 years after the previous general election, unless the current chancellor steps down from his position.

Parties
Histalpol has 5 major political parties which are Commart which is a centre-left political party, the Emerald Party which is a centre-right political party, the Lib Dems which are radical centre political party, the Histalpol Parti Isolationist or HPI which are a political party that are support a Left-wing nationalist government and to maintain a Non-interventionism Isolationism policy on foreign relations, and the Royal Kingdom of Histalpol which are a strict right-wing political party that have a policy of having the monarch of Histalpol have more power over the parliament that what is currently common. During the 2012 general election, the 5 parties combined won 537 out of the 565 seats available in the Minor Exposition Hall. Most of the remaining seats were won by minor political parties of Histalpol.

Foreign Relations
Main Article: Diplomatic relations of Histalpol

Since The Black Depression starting in 1992, Foreign Relations with other countries have slowly declined into a state of isolationism over the 16 year control of the Histalpol Parti Isolationist political party, who supports an isolationist view to expanding Histalian economy. This worked and brought Histalpol out of the depression, but once the HPI left power in 2008 to be replaced with Commart, the country had no foreign policies, and no foreign relations with any country, the Chancellor of the time, Borgia Malstrone, started the process of making diplomatic and foreign relations with other countries, but ultimately failed in his plan. In 2012, with the electing in of Chancellor Timothy Small of the LibDem party, Histalpol had joined the Alliance of Independent Nations and made few foreign relations, including embassies which have been few and far between during the Black Depression.

Military
The Histalian Armed Forces (Les forces armées de Histalpol) are the miliraty and paramilitary forces of Histalpol, under the current monarch as supreme commander. They consist of the Histalian Army, which itself consusts of 2 branches, Armée Territoriale, the army of Histalpol alongside the Armée de mouvement des Affaires étrangères which is an army Histalpol deploys to assist in other nations affairs which might not be seen as pivotal to the safety and up-keeping of Histalpol. There is also the Histalian Navy, or Marine Histalpol as well as the Histalian Air Force known as the Histalian aéronautique guerriers. There is also a paramilitary force known as H.A.R.P. Administratively, all of the forces are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defence, but H.A.R.P is operationally attached directly to the Department of Infrastructure, in which the Ministry of Defence is a ministry of. Histalpol's annual military expenditure in 2012 was US$6.99 billion, or 1.8% of Histalpol's GDP making it the 25th biggest military spender in the world between Pakistan and Iran

Religion
Forms of Christianity have dominated religious life in what is now Histalpol for over 1,250 years. Although most Histalians refer to themselves as Christians in surveys, regular church attendance and practising Christians have fallen dramatically over the 20th and 21st century. This decrease in Christianity has also indicated a rise in eastern religions, most noticeable the Islamic faith, as brought in by immigrating middle east citizens, soon to overtake Christianity as the most practised religion in Histalpol.

In a census carried out by the Ministry of Statistics, 51.5% of all respondents indicated they were Christians, practising or not, with the next largest faith, Islam, reaching 15.7%. The rest of the census indicated the following results; Hinduism (3.8%), Judaism (1.2%), Sikhism (1.2%), Buddhism (0.8%) and other religions at (0.2%). The remaining 25.6% of respondents stated that they belonged to no religion.

The official established church of Histalpol is the Histalic-Christianity Church. This retains a representation in the Histalian Parliament. There has been movements to create an established mosques of Histalpol for the largely growing populous of Muslims and to have the same power seat in the Histalian Parliament as the Histalic-Christianity Church holds.

Health
Healthcare in Histalpol is taken as a public funded institution of Histalpol controlled by the counties of Histalpol in a devolved format, where each hospital authority is allowed additional and holistic treatments, as well as the complementary treatments set out in acts by the government of Histalpol. Public healthcare is currently provided to all Histalian permanent residents and is free to an extent as of 2013 with free delivery if absolutely needed, most of the aspects being paid by general taxation.

Regulatory bodies include the National Association of Histalian Practitioners (NAHP)who represent practitioners of the medical profession all over Histalpol. There is a separate body representing Histalian medical students, including and not limited to dental students, opticians, and as of 2004, controversially veterinary students. The body representing this group of people is the Histalian Medical Students Association.

Energy
Energy usage in Histalpol is predominantly from natural gases from AIN and non-AIN nations.

In 2013, Chancellor Timothy Small announced a 5 year plan to turn energy dependence away from natural gases to biomass fuels, with 13 new power stations across Histalpol, with 55% of fuel used for energy becoming biomass. The project contained 2 of the most major projects in Histalpol at that time, being a new biomass power stations on St. Fledling Island to power 87% of the island solely, and a new Hh 54 million project in the heartlands of Beracha Glas.

Sports
In sporting events, the entirety of Histalpol is commonly represented by both Beracha Glas and mainland Histalpol. Events such as the Simlympic games and the Alliance Games are and will be represented by Histalpol (Although Histalpol is allowed to compete and is allowed to host the games or the committee session, they have yet not entered an Alliance Games). Other union events are also represented by Histalpol as a whole, including Alliance football, and cannot be separated to teams from Beracha Glas and mainland Histalpol unless recognised as separate countries by AIN. Another factor as to why there is not two separate teams in international competitions is the general public opinion generally supports a collective representing team for international competitions compared to separate land masses, which is all that distinguishes the two parts of Histalpol from each other. However, in domestic leagues with single sports-persons such as Autoracing, Snooker, Darts and Equestrian sports, the sports-person is categorised by the landmass in Histalpol they represent from Beracha Glas and mainland Histalpol.

Histalpol has only been in international sporting competitions once, it being the XVIII Simlympiad in June 2013. They placed 14th with 9 gold, 4 silver and 5 bronze medals. Histalpol is also allowed to participate in an Alliance Games, but have not had the chance to participate as of August 2013. Histalpol has not yet held one of the competitions or the committee sessions to select the host city, but has been rumoured to be applying for bidding to host a committee session soon.

Football is the recognised national sport of Histalpol, also recognised as the most popular sport in Histalpol. Histalpol's league system contains of 7 tiers, including the highest tier the SportsPlay Platinum League (the equivalent to the English Premier League. Histalpol is joined to the Alliance Football Association and has both national teams and participates in the club league, with the top 3 teams in the Platinum League participating; being Darsingborough F.C, Islington Wolves and Chlorington Town F.C. Histalpol has an official national football team which participates in the AFA National competitions. The national stadium of Histalpol is the Old Stade Capital De Histalpol in Renné.

Histalpol has a massive affinity for autoracing including Grand tourer, Rallying and Touring car racing. Histalpol holds it's own touring car racing championship called the Histalian Touring Car Championship (HTCC) as well as it's own rally series and a combined racing series where GT1 and GT3 competitions run parallel to each other. the Public Local Automotives hold a large stake in Motorsports in Histalpol with PLA cars being used in HTCC and the National GT Series (NGTS). In 2013, it was rumoured that if a new Alliance Grand Prix series starts up, that Histalpol will offer their own Grand Prix stage each year as well as a new Grand Prix team supplied by PLA.

Multiple sports was popularised in Histalpol by the monarchy and government in varying reigns and eras. Those popularised among many (but not on the same vast scale) were Equestrianism, Archery and Shooting, of which all 3 Histalpol had performed valiantly in the XVIII Simlympiad, those sports being where Histalpol gained most gold medals. Equestrianism was popularised during the reign of the first monarch of the First Republic of Histalpol Queen Hélène II whose son and daughter both performed in equestrianism, which the daughter also carried into her reign after Harrow's War in the late 18th century when equestrianism started to become a large sport.

Shooting became popular in Histalpol when news came out that popular 1900s Chancellor, Edward Mandaloch, practised Shooting as a sport. The sport was temperamentally banned from being played after the end of WW2 with the rise of organised crime and did not re-emerge till 1987, but with organised crime still relatively high and the banning of owning personal weapons, practising shooting has decreased dramatically since it's rise in the 1900s and most international competitors either train in the UK, France or elsewhere or represent Histalpol even though living in a separate country.

Public transport
Bastilia holds a unique section of public transport in Histalpol which is an elevated BRT system, called the ERBus which connects the suburbs of Bastilia to the city centre, as well as connecting together all the ministries and government buildings in a circle route. There are also connections to all 3 Bastilia airports via the ERBus system.

Aviation
There are 502 airports and airfields in Histalpol, of which 453 contain at least 1 paved runway.

The busiest airport is Bastilia Hough Airport which is owned by the InterEuroAIN Airport Authority which also owns smaller Bastilia airport, Bastilia Legion Airport as well as Calora International Airport which is the only foreign airport ran by a Histalian authority currently.

The 2nd busiest airport in Histalpol is Renné Knighthouse Airport is owned by Histalpol-based Histalpol Airport Authority as well as the 3rd busiest on the list, Darsingborough International Airport. 2 other Bastilian airports airports take up the 4th and 5th ranks with Bastilia International Airport being 4th and Bastilia Legion Airport being 5th.

The largest airline in Histalpol is the flag carrier of RoyalHistal while other major airlines include charter airlines such as Pigeon Express as well as low cost airlines which have been rising in numbers since the climb out of the Black Depression, especially since 2008 with the collapse of isolationism in Histalpol, leading to more foreign holidays and business chances.

Because of this rise in holiday companies, the InterEuroAIN Airport Authority which was founded in 2013, have set up a programme called CATOL which makes the requirement of holding a licence to sell holidays, as a precaution of a licence holding travel organisation ceases trade or stops flights either temporarily or permanently ensuring that customers do not get stranded abroad or lose money in a case that they cannot return home with the same travel organisation or charter airline, this has then been accepted by the Lehicro Economic Community.

Sea Travel
Histalpol is situated in the east end of the English Channel and also the small seas between Sainte-Croix and Histalpol as well as the Celtic Sea. Because of this, before the invention of aviation, the only way to enter and leave the country as well as moving through the islands of Histalpol could only be by sea travel apart from Histalpol's border with the United Kingdom. Since Histalpol is surrounded on 3 sides by large masses of water, a common way to travel across those apart from aviation is Sea Travel.

Approximately 85% of all freight enters Histalpol by the sea, being unloaded at ports across Histalpol's Islands. 3 ports handle the majority of all the freight input and output in Histalpol, these being;


 * Port of Grewnwood on the east side of the main island, in close proximity of Port Loove.
 * Port of Marlyborn on mainland Histalpol on the Southwestern coast, near the border with the United Kingdom.
 * Port of Sir Martin on the northern shore of Leon Island, opposite shore of Malona.

Ferries, both passenger and vehicle oriented, operate in Histalpol in the English Channel, Celtic Sea and the Sea between Llithustania and Histalpol as well as further international ferry crossings with Republic of Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Spain. Services are run also between the islands of Histalpol to a lesser scale in size, but larger scale in the size of operations, this includes Renné to Port Loove, St. Fledling Island and Beracha Glas as well as a diamond shaped route between the Main Island of Histalpol and the 3 smaller islands making up Leon Island, the island with Nouveau Baso and the island closest to Llithstania of the trio, all 4 routes linked by the same company.

Many cruise liners also make stops at Histalpol as a stop in European tours. Cruise ships depart from Histalpol for destinations worldwide, many heading for ports around the Mediterranean and Caribbean.
