===Pre-founding===
[[IsabelleIzzy]] joined Aurora on October 3rd, 2022 but would not actually play until around May of 2024. Upon rejoining the server she joined [[Houston]] after asking to join a city with a map art platform. Despire this she would never make any map art in Houston due to the queue system, instead opting to grind for the gold to found her own town.

===Founding===
'''El-Dorado''' was founded on May 22nd, 2024. The town was originally part of [[The Republic of Texas]]. The location was chosen at the request of [[North Paso]] who was looking to expand [[The Republic of Texas|Texas]] into Mexico.

===Becoming the Capital===
On October 10th, 2024 [[_Vails]] would quit the server, transferring ownership of the nation (now renamed [[Mexican_Empire]]) to [[IsabelleIzzy]]. This made the town the capital, which it has remained ever since. upon transfer [[IsabelleIzzy]] opted to close the /n spawn while working on the city to make it a more appealing place, and work on a national shop. This era of expansion continues to this day, with almost all of it being driven solo by [[IsabelleIzzy]]. Despite [[_Vails]] return, El-Dorado remains the capital city.
