Germa Kingdom

The Germa Kingdom is the world's only seafaring kingdom. It is ruled by the Vinsmoke Family, a royal family hailing from North Blue, and is serviced militarily by the Underworld army, Germa 66.

Currently, the kingdom is assembling at Whole Cake Island in the New World.

Geography
The Germa Kingdom is first mentioned by Vinsmoke Reiju, who describes it as "a nation without land". Its "territory" is later shown to be comprised of platforms suspended on top of dozens of ships; these ships usually move independently, depending on the kingdom's activities at the time, but can be interlocked as they come together to the form the kingdom's proper "shape". As a consequence, the size and the bounds of its territory are constantly fluctuating, depending on how many of its ships are assembled at one time.

Royal Castle
The central, and largest, landmark in the kingdom is the Vinsmoke Family's royal castle, around which other fortress-like structures assemble. One of the rooms inside the castle is a very large and spacious room containing a portrait of Vinsmoke Judge during the Four Nation Coup. The room also has a balcony that oversees the kingdom.

Yonji Castle
One of the kingdom's towers is named "Yonji Castle", and, as the name suggests, it is Vinsmoke Yonji's residence. He is seen recovering there after his fight with Sanji. The fortress has an infirmary with a device called "The Press Machine".

Royal Family
The Germa Kingdom is ruled by the Vinsmoke Family, whose patriarch, Vinsmoke Judge, is the reigning king. Unusually among royal families, the Vinsmokes are also the commanders of their nation's military, Germa 66, leading them directly in combat and other mercenary situations.

Others
The majority of the citizens in the Germa Kingdom are male soldiers who comprise Germa 66. However, the ruling family is shown to have several handmaidens who work directly in their employ.

Four Nation Coup
Some time in the past, the Vinsmoke Family led Germa 66 in an event known as the Four Nation Coup. While the details of the event are unknown, Judge was photographed standing over four vanquished kings.

Totland Arc
Sometime between the Straw Hat Pirates' departure from Dressrosa and the Big Mom Pirates' arrival on Zou, the Vinsmoke and Charlotte families entered into a political alliance. As part of this agreement, a wedding was arranged between the Vinsmoke Family's third son and the Charlotte Family's 35th daughter, to tie the two families' bloodlines. In anticipation of the wedding, the Germa Kingdom is gradually converging in Lake Aprico on Whole Cake Island.

Trivia

 * From the design of the Germa Kingdom's flag, the kingdom appears to have a Nordic or Viking influence.
