}}The '''Organization of Free Nations''' was an alliance consisting almost entirely of democratic nations that existed for just over two years during Terra Aurora. It was founded between [[Cascadia]], the [[Aurora:North Sea Republic|North Sea Republic]], Belarus and the [[Midwestern Union]] on March 19, 2023. It would grow exponentially, especially throughout the year 2024, eventually becoming the largest alliance in Terra Aurora history at it's height. The OFN would show a great level of cooperation between nations, with the most apparent example being the [[Great American War]], which was won so hard that Texas effectively capitulated, with a new government rising that joined the OFN itself for a time later on. After the Great American War, the alliance cemented it's power over the world, primarily in North America and Oceania. Eventually, however, a combination of deep internal strife, lessening interest, inactivity and a discord nuking in the beginning and spring of 2025 eventually collapsed the alliance, with it being officially disbanded on July 25, 2025.


== Organization of Free Nations ==
The OFN left a legacy of having some of the greatest levels of cooperation between nations that the server had ever seen. The democratic ideas of the alliance caused a number of nations to instate democratic reforms in order to join the alliance. At the same time though, as the alliance grew, so did internal strife, especially throughout late 2024, which ended up being one of the primary factors behind it's downfall. At the same time, the high levels of cooperation also introduced high levels of immigration between it's member nations, with notable players who immigrated through the OFN being [[Dracnoian]], [[Farosh]], [[Kahnstantia]], and many more.
The OFN is an alliance formed on March 19th of 2023 which consists of various democratic nations, based heavily on the philosophies of democracy.  


== History ==
=== Founding and Early History(March 2023 - February 2024) ===
Throughout 2022 and early 2023, the nation of Cascadia would make some new friends, most notably the nations of the North Sea Republic, who they had a party chat with, Belarus, and the Midwestern Union, who was relatively close to them and were quite friendly. Though differences in organization and culture existed between these three nations, one attribute served as a common denominator: democracy. As a result, spearheaded by players such as [[EstiQT]] and [[Milgorn123]], the OFN was founded on March 19, 2023. The naming and branding came from Esti herself, who named it after an alliance of the same name in a mod for the World War II strategy game, Hearts of Iron IV, known as [https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2438003901 The New Order]. The alliance would grow slowly but surely in the coming months, taking in members such as [[Aurora:Armenia|Armenia]], the [[Polar Republic]] and [[Laurentia]]. The North Sea Republic would eventually leave the alliance however, and the Midwestern Union would go inactive not long after the OFN's founding.
=== Havaiki, Exponential Growth(February - June 2024) ===
In February 2025, a group from outside EarthMC, who had connections with the Cascadian Frontiersmen, joined the server and founded the nation of [[Havaiki]]. Havaiki and Cascadia quickly gained close relations, and Havaiki would join the OFN on X X, 2024. This proved to be one of the best decisions the OFN made, as Havaikan leaders quickly got involved and massively improved the alliance, with Dracnoian at the forefront.
=== Great American War(June - September 2024) ===
=== Golden Era(September 2024 - January 2025) ===
=== Internal Strife, Decline and Disbanding(January - July 2025) ===

''Last Updated October 21, 2025''
 
In the two years and four months of it's existence, the OFN has hosted dozens of nations at different times in it's history, big and small. However, at any given time the alliance usually didn't have more than a dozen of these at once.
 
Writers Note: I'll be making a graphic to have this ridiculous table make a little more sense. Also, not every OFN nation was included, these are just the ones I could find on TBI. Some flags may be missing or incorrect, these are being fixed.
