Shitland was founded at 6:01 pm Pacific time. It was immediately renamed by staff to '''2.1notinshitland''' for violating nation naming rules. Sergio declared in the Cascadian discord server to be a trade possession office of Cascadia, despite not receiving authorization from any governmental authority of such transaction. As he was de-roled of his citizenship from the Cascadian server, he eventually sued for peace and rejoined Cascadia, dissolving Shitland after just 6 minutes.
