== Overview ==
'''[https://discord.gg/7nAtPScd7 Alaska]''' is a nation located in the extreme northwest of North America. Alaska's capital, Fairbanks, is the oldest and most populous town in the nation. It has international borders with [[Russian Alaska(Aurora)|Russian_Alaska]] to the southwest, [https://discord.gg/Pd6ExZaBen Kuskokwim_Mtns] to the east, Yukon to the west, and [[Cascadia]] to the southwest. The nation is owned by [[tuzzzie]] and co-owned by [[Fruitloopins]], but it was originally founded on May 18, 2022 by Malso_, uwu_dez, and other members of the nation of Alaska on [[Terra Nova]].

== Etymology ==
The nation of Alaska is based off the real-life state in the United States of America with the same name. The real-life land of Alaska received it's name from the natives of the land in the Aleutian Islands, the Aleut. They called it "Alaxsxaq" meaning "the mainland." It can also be derived from the word "Alyeska," which means "great land" in Aleut.

== Geography & Towns ==
Alaska’s geography is very diverse. The North is a mixture of mountains, plains, and tundras. To the North, a plethora of towns lie along the coast-line, with the towns of Saint_George and NS in the northeast. Tundra plains change to dense spruce forests as we move further East. In the East, Alaska’s towns stretch all the way to the northern part of current day Alberta. The southeast geography consists of marshes and wetlands, with trees lying on the edge of the mountains. Peace_River is both Alaska’s easternmost and southernmost town, with the towns of Spruce, Castle_John, and Teslin also lying in the East. Southern geography consists of snowy mountains along the coast, present day Kodiak Island, and the flat and rocky Aleutian Islands. In the South, the towns of Seward and The_Valley lie right below our capital; while Chignik lies along the Aleutian Islands. The west is an extreme mountainous region that is a mixture of spruce taiga and snowy mountains. In the West, the EMC Alaskan towns stop just after the Bering Strait, with the town of Ruz being the westernmost territory. On present day Saint Lawrence island, the town of AK is established. On the coast of Alaska is the fishing capital of the west, Koyuk, and further inland is the town of HappyTrees. In the center of Alaska lies the capital, Fairbanks, which consists of 877 chunks and serves as the central hub for all Alaskan trade.

== History ==

=== Prehistory ===
Malso_, the leader of Alaska on [[Terra Nova (Planet)| Terra Nova]], had wanted to reestablish his nation on aurora. Malso_ and some citizens of the old Alaska planned out the nation. On the first day of public access of Aurora, May 13th, 2022, Malso and his citizens from Terra Nova set out towards Alaska from Los Angeles, [[California (Aurora)|California]]. While Malso_ was waiting in the queue, uwu_dez, one of the members of the mission, mined so that by the time Malso_ arrived, the town could be made. They established Fairbanks, based off the real life town in the same region. They chose the town as it was a central point in the Alaskan land. Over the following six days, deZ did the majority of mining for the nation. When deZ had collected all the gold, Malso_ gave him the rights to make Alaska, and he served as the Chancellor.

=== The uwu_deZ Era ===
After the nation was created, deZ was not very popular. Many nation members were against him. There were multiple citizens who claimed deZ had stolen their possessions. There were also other conflicts internally at the time. The Alaskan towns of Kodiak and New Kodiak had multiple skirmishes. The members of Kodiak moved to Petersburg, Alaska, and then to what would become the nation of [[Tanzania (Aurora)|Tanzania]]. Many members left the nation and some quit EarthMC entirely. In the meanwhile, Malso was still active and worked on alliances such as the [https://discord.gg/hnyF8Pt428 Alaskan Union] and the [https://discord.gg/rJNr8MdStk USA]. Malso was still popular, with the citizens desiring for him to become to the leader as initially planned. Due to a misunderstanding with the nation of Spain, the Alaskan Union declared war upon them. However, it was quickly sorted out, and was resolved six hours after being declared. The nation suffered due to deZ's inactivity for a period. Due to deZ's inactivity, Malso reacquired the nation on August 11th, 2022.

=== The Malso_ Era ===
Malso wanted a more democratic government, establishing a Prime Minister election. KalebTheTurtl, the mayor of the town of Yukon, was victorious in the election on August 28th, 2022. Around this time, Bering_Sea, an AU member, joined Alaska directly, making it a meganation. On the 24th of October, the nation joined the [https://discord.gg/NGtqAb6J2U League of Nations], and new international alliance. A day later, Aleutians_East, the other AU member, also joined Alaska. With the new addition, the Federation of Alaska was rechristened to '''Imperial Alaska'''. As all the AU members had joined Alaska, the alliance folded. The next day, the newly established nation of [[Russian Alaska(Aurora)|Russian_Alaska]] had shown interest in joining the AU. It was re-established only one day after folding. After the next election cycle, KalebTheTurtl was re-elected as the Prime Minister. In that election cycle, more roles were added, such as a cabinet and district elections. This eventually led to the ratification of the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jbfaOkFmI4wYm9oQUtCXdNPoMPKx0Xjk7Vi9WnpqWRs/edit# Alaskan Constitution]. In the following weeks, Far North, a new nation in Alaska, joined the nation. Around this time, Oregon began(Aurora)lks with the nation. Alaska ratified the nation joining Alaska, but Oregon withdrew right before they were to accept. At this point, Alaska declared war on the nation of Washington, who had declared independence from their ally Cascadia. Washington eventually surrendered.

=== The Knowlton and Kayleemar Era ===
Knowlton eventually acquired Alaska from Malso_ along with the help of Kayleemar. Under their watch, the nation slowly started to decline, where it was left with the capital of Fairbanks being 10 chunks, and with only one resident and no other towns.

=== The Tuzzzie and Fruitloopins Era ===
Tuzzzie and Fruit, the owners of the former nation of Yukon, decided they wanted to start new and fresh, as Yukon was dying gradually after the loss of Mopugose. They chose to buy the nation of Alaska from their friends, Knowlton and Kayleemar. Tuzzzie and Fruitloopins had a lot of work on their hands. In the span of around 7 months, they revitalized the Alaskan region, got Fairbanks to be one of the largest towns on the server, at almost 1000 chunks, as well as the nation having 55 towns and 311 residents in the nation. Alaska has never been better. They even ratified a new constitution for the nation where anyone can take part in the government. Alaska also has strong Alliances with both Cascadia and Katmai, two of it’s neighbors. Under Tuzzzie and Fruitloopins, there hasn’t been any wars and there has only been peace on the Alaskan plains. However, following a one-month hiatus in which they vowed to come back but left most of its national members in the dark, Alaska began to falter. Denali capitalized on the doubt by attracting many disillusioned members who believed the nation was on the decline. Some departed due to its deteriorating democratic ideals, while others felt neglected by leaders who appeared uncaring.

== Government ==

=== Current Roles ===
Alaska is a constitutional monarchy, with elections on hold.

=== Constitution ===
The constitution was ratified on the 18th of October, 2024. The constitution establishes the Monarch as the main ruler with certain restrictions. The constitution gives citizens many different freedoms. On March 30th, 2025, a new constitution was ratified, consolidating the power of the monarchy. This constitution was drafted by OneSpookyGhost under the guidance of tuzzzie.

=== Government Functions ===
Tuzzzie and Fruitloopins make all governmental decisions.

== Territory ==

=== Acquisitions ===

==== Ahkiok ====
On December 31st, 2024, the nation of Katmai sold, as part of a larger deal, the town of Ahkiok, located on Kodiak Island, to Alaska for 150g. Alaska then allocated the new territory to the town of Qikertaq, where it absorbed Ahkiok and finally made Qikertaq the only town on Kodiak.

==== Mackenzie ====
The nation of Mackenzie was sold to Alaska for 3500g after the former King [[Aurora:Xstoicx]] was defamed for his leftist politics by the OFN and mainly Cascadia's NEET Oligarch Shadow government.

==== USSR ====
Formally a small nation on the coast of eastern Russia, it was acquired by Alaska without much hastle, and now is apart of Alaska.

==== Yukon ====
Yukon sit on these nuts

==== AK ====
Once a former gambling hub, AK slowly started to decline, and was eventually handed to Fruitloopins, therefore joining Alaska, bringing in the town of St. Lawrence Island to Alaska's roster.

=== Secessions ===

==== Denali ====
With the threat of war with Katmai running high, the nation of Alaska was split in the decision to go to war or not. In the end, the majority voted against war, but a few would carry the resentment for some time. These few planned on creating a new nation where they can be independent away from Alaskan governance. On the night of December 30th, 2024, they sprang into action, and broke off from Alaska, including Bishop, and created the new nation of Denali. Due to this, and without proper time to prepare, Alaska lost modern day Nunivak and had to scramble to set up new towns to regain the town lost. In the beginning, there was a bit of animosity between the two nations; but after a bit of diplomacy, relations are now cordial, however some still harbor resentment.

=== Removals ===

==== Rocky Mountains ====
After long talks with the leaders of Rocky Mountains, 8set and Karn4, the nation was 12-chunked and their capital of Dawnstar joined Alaska, with other Rocky_Mountains towns following suit. However, it was later kicked and sanctioned by vote of the Alaskan government due to national security concerns.

== Info ==
Starting 22nd September 2024, Fruitloopins & tuzzzie started hosting "Fishing Saturday" - a 3 hour Fishing competition at the nation of Alaska.

A custom plugin calculates how many fish each player has caught during those 3 hours

1. If you win 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place you will receive:

- A "Gold-Plated Fishing Rod" for 1st place.

- A "Silver-Plated Salmon" for 2nd place.

- A "Bronze-Plated Cod" for 3rd place.

2. If you win the same position in two or more Fishing Saturday events, you will have your item "prestiged" with purple lore noting how many times it has been prestiged.

3. In the event a player wins the same position they have already won in the past, the next position will move up a place in the rankings and they will both be counted as joint winners of that position, the same rank shifting will occur if they have also won that position.

==== Note: ====
"Prestige" on an item's lore is a sign of how many times the player has won this place

For example, "Prestige II" on a 2nd place item means the player won 2nd place twice lifetime

Max Prestige Limit: 3

Only 2x prestiges may be given out per level per event.

For example, if today's 1st place won before; they get prestige. so today's 2nd place gets bumped to 1st place. if they also won before, they also get prestige. so today's 3rd place gets bumped to 1st. if they won before they *wont* get prestige; and not a new item obviously. theyre just bumped.
