History
Early history
About the town founder
The current mayor and founder of the town, AlmightyWindows (Polish by nationality), first joined the server on October 2. After spending a while just looking around, he decided to join New Orthinia, a town in Israel. But quickly, AlmightyWindows realized that living there was not for him, and he decided to try and create his own town in Poland. He contacted the mayor of Częstochowa, SkyMoon1427, and he was allowed to live in Kielce. Later, he applied to Kielce's mayor, rocky300, for a loan to found a town. His request was granted due to the fact that Danzig, a German town north-west of Gdańsk, was due to fall in three days. As Gdańsk was the only significant Polish city with sea access, all the parties involved realized that this was of major strategic importance to the nation of Poland.
