Aurora:Atlanta: Difference between revisions

Atlanta is the capital city of the [[United States]] and a metropolitan city that is especially friendly to new players. All residents have the opportunity to have a vote on laws and decisions if they rank up to become a member of the House of Representatives. The city ''Mayor'' is '''RobotGamer__''' alongside ''Co-Mayor'' '''Bliksemman'''.   

=== Early History ===

Atlanta was founded by '''RobotGamer__''' on May 3, 2022 just 2 days after the early access release of Terra Aurora. Some early residents include '''Bliksemman''', '''gebalat''' and '''MartialFelix'''.  

'''RobotGamer__''' originally planned to create the Kingdom of America which would have a Constitutional Monarchy, with him as King. In the early access days, there were discussions between '''RobotGamer__''' and '''karatoss''' (the leader of Louisiana) over the potential of creating a Kingdom of America, which Louisiana would merge into. These plans never came to fruition, and the idea for a Kingdom of America was swiftly dropped after seeing the many nations being created across North America.  

As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' began to focus on creating something more realistic: the Kingdom of Georgia. The claims of which would be based around the real life State of Georgia. A government for the nation has been fully established, with an entrenched Constitution that emphasises the superiority of the Senate in having the ability to amend the Constitution without the need for the King's approval. The Senate is to be made up of all Mayors of the nation, and vote on all laws and major decisions made. Progress towards forming the nation has been slow, but picked up dramatically towards the end of 2022.  

==== Revival ====

After a short period of inactivity from '''RobotGamer__''', lasting about 2 weeks, he decided to return and put a lot of energy into getting the town back on its feet again. '''Bliksemman''' proved to be a loyal resident who stuck around during this period of inactivity, and remained enthusiastic about helping out in the town. As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' appointed '''Bliksemman''' to the position of Co-Mayor, and he has proven a fantastic active Co-Mayor helping with town projects and recruitment.  

Mayor of Atlanta, '''RobotGamer__''', began recruiting heavily in November, 2022. Town activity prior to November had been very poor, so '''RobotGamer__''' decided to get more active and ramp up recruitment. Between November 17, 2022 and December 27, 2022 he managed to recruit over 60 new residents. This made Atlanta one of the largest towns in the continent.  

'''Reformation of the [[United States]]'''

Atlanta proved a loyal member of the United States nation (previously named Louisiana), and when US leadership became inactive, RobotGamer__ spent two months negotiating to attempt to become the new nation leader. While RobotGamer__ was unsucceful in taking leadership, they did come to an agreement in the form of the '''[https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/United_States#:~:text=be%20found%20below.-,Reformation%20of%20the%20United%20States%20Treaty,Louisiana%E2%80%9D)%20had%20does%20not%20apply%20to%20the%20new%20%E2%80%9CUnited%20States%E2%80%9D%20nation.,-Constitution%20of%20the Reformation of the United States Treaty]''' which agreed that the nation would rename back to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States nation. To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.  

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of loyal Atlanta resident, Prince MakRouss, Atlanta rapidly increased its population during the summer of 2023. During this period Atlanta became the largest town in Aurora, reaching over 300 residents. Emperor and Mayor RobotGamer__ recognises MakRouss for his part in recruitment and awarded him the Medal of Freedom. He was also given a special mention during a speech given by the Emperor at the event celebrating Atlanta's 300 residents.

However, on the 26th November 2023 things took a turn for the worse when it came to MakRouss. Emperor RobotGamer__ announced the following on the U.S. discord: "I have something to announce to you all today that I feel you deserve to know. One of this empire's heroes, someone I have admired ever since he joined Atlanta, has committed heinous, despicable and wicked acts that cannot go unpunished. He has stooped to a low that I did not think was even possible. A former resident of Atlanta, and someone who just 10 days ago I awarded the rank of @✨Legend✨ to for his previous dedication to recruitment has committed an act of treason against the United States Empire. That man is MakRouss. MakRouss left Atlanta over a month ago to make his own town in South America, but ever since he has been targeting Atlanta in an attempt to steal our residents. While this frustrated me I still respected Mak for everything he did for Atlanta, I have even gone on record saying he was the best resident I have ever had in my 6+ years of playing EarthMC. On 24th November 2023, to my complete shock, Atlanta came under attack - we were griefed in 6 separate plots. The Great Atlanta Wall had been completely destroyed in these plots. It was to my suprise that the perpertrator of this grief was MakRouss. He was the only one trusted in these plots, and he has openly admitted his guilt to me via DMs. He claims he was paid by oIsar, leader of fake US, to grief us. Mak has proceeded to be incredibly rude, insulting and toxic to Atlantan residents. While me and Mak have not seen eye to eye since he left in October, I still respected him dearly for his service to the empire. But what he has become is unforgivable. We have been betrayed. So, with the power vested in me by the Constitution of the United States Empire, I hereby convict MakRouss of committing Treason and sentence him to death. I hereby issue a fine of 35,000 gold to MakRouss that he is required to pay to absolve him from his crimes."

A day later, RobotGamer__ had an update to give to the U.S. regarding MakRouss: "After inspecting the scenes of the grief, moderator fabinostalgia, has determined MakRouss and Elefftherios as the perpetrators of the grief. Elefftherios was found placing a Swastika outside the perimeter of Atlanta... It is clear these people lack any morality. We do not condone Nazism in the United States Empire, so anyone associated with MakRouss and Elefftherios will be permanently banned from this discord server."
