History

Pre-Terra Nova

For a lengthy period of time between the announcement of Terra Nova and the release, Oretin was undecided. Around the end of August, Oretin, Paper, IanNotEN, Sarmango, katherinehasson/AbneyPark, and many others were set on the idea of Papacy Worldwide: a globalist nation run by the Pope, Sarmango. This was the plan until the beginning of October, when the release date of Terra Nova was announced along with a list of new rules. One of the rules announced was a range limit on a nations towns, meaning a nation could only include towns within a certain distance from the nations capital. Already bored of the idea of Papacy Worldwide, the idea was scrapped. Shortly after, Paper and Oretin were going back and forth with suggestions to each other before Paper finally suggested Panama, and Oretin agreed to the idea. Shortly after its conception, many Germans/Austrians quickly joined, such as Ian, Schober, Runner, Jaden, and Beetle. Oretin and Paper were both named interim Presidente of Panama until the first election was held, which would decide who would lead Panama in its first months. The first election was held in a 24 hour

period from October 22 to October 23. The candidates were Paper, Oretin, Runner, and Schober. In the end, Paper came out on top with 50% of the vote, Oretin came in second with 25%, and Runner and Schober tied for third with 12.5% of the vote. Almost immediately after the results of the October Election were announced, Oretin announced his candidacy for the November Election, as Paper would not be seeking a second term. Paper appointed Oretin as the Auxiliar de Trade in his administration. A constitution was written, and signed by all of the newly instated Oligarchs, including Oretin, The Presidente, and the first Juez: Ian.

Early History and Birth of Panama

Upon joining Terra Nova on the night of launch, Oretin spawned on the eastern coast of Australia. To significantly shorten the journey to Panama, he joined jmillz's town which was located in Central America, and traveled south until he arrived in Panama. Paper arrived shortly afterwards. After the two voted and each received ten gold, with the assistance of Ian, who had joined during early access, The City of New Ulm was founded, being the first city in the Panama Core. Four days later, Oretin founded the City of New Graz to the west of New Ulm across the beginning stages of the construction of the Panama Canal. It is also worth noting that around this time, Paper founded the Panama Blue Conservative party, which Oretin quickly became a member of. Oretin also proposed the idea of a Minister of Transportation, which was put up to a vote and passed with a majority, and ultimately Jaden became the first Minister of Transportation. After days of gathering funds via mining and voting, Panama officially became a nation on November 12. In the first days of the nations existence, Presidente Paper added multiple new towns to the nation that were far away from the core of Panama, much to the dismay of Oretin, who believed that the plan of the PBC was to be strictly followed.
