=== May - August 2017 ===
=== ''Pre-Terra Nova'' ===
Oretin joined on May 29, 2017. He didn't do much until about two hours after he joined, when he was offered to create the town of Graz, this opportunity came when 73beetle gave him the decison. He agreed, and this town would become his home for most of the time spent here. Not long after joining, Oretin [[File:223B98AE-83A9-4884-B2F1-B493F3036DD8.jpeg|thumb|296x296px]]and KRN0530 were mining in southern Africa, where it had been discovered there was a surplus of diamonds. When they were still mining, KRN0530 received a tpa request from someone named JudeSeife, he accepted, under the impression Jude wanted to tp to KRN, and not KRN to Jude. It was a tp kill. The second KRN had arrived he was killed by Jude and Kaitala. This is what sparked the Tortugas Conflict. Oretin returned to Graz, with the intent of telling Beetle what had happened. He went to Vienna, and informed beetle, EthanMineKing also informed him, as he had been tp killed as well. 9 austrian soldiers left Austria that day to what would be the first of three encounters with Tortugas. The first was when 9 soldiers attacked the town, it was a success, as Jude and Kait did not see it coming. The second encounter was a total failure. KRN0530 and Beetle were both killed in this time. two others were also killed. In between the second and third encounters, Oretin was elected Prasident of Austria. during his time as Prasident, he liberated Bern so it could become a free state, and also tried to patch up relations to Tortugas. This proved futile. the third
For a lengthy period of time between the announcement of Terra Nova and the release, Oretin was undecided on what he would pursue in Terra Nova. Near 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 updates on how the server will function. One of the features revealed 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 almost immediately. Seemingly reaching a dead end, the former pursuers of PWW began to search for options. Oretin, like many others, had already decided that he would not be returning to Europe, which eliminated most popular options. He and Paper conversed for a short while discussing what they had ideas for. Paper ultimately suggested Panama, which was agreed upon by the two. Shortly after its conception, a discord was created, and 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, wherein it would be decided who would lead Panama in its first months. The first election was held in a 24 hour

Tortugan forces attacked Graz and Vienna by placing lava in towns that took months to build. this was when Beetle tried to turn off the perms that would prevent Jude and Kait from attacking, but a fatal error was made. In the process, Jude and Kait invaded the Vienna Storage and took 4 stacks of gold. In his rage, Beetle disbanded the town of Vienna. Oretin refused to let Graz go into Tortugan hands, so he always had someone in charge of it, no matter where he was. Shortly after this, Bern also fell into Tortugan hands, where Oretin had been staying.
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 announced he would not be seeking a second term. Paper appointed Oretin as the Auxiliar de Trade in his administration. Following the election, the conception of the Panamanian Constitution began. While the majority of the writing was done by Paper, he still consulted the Oligarchs and Juez Ian. In the end, a sixteen page constitution was written, and honored by the citizens and government. The constitution was signed by Paper, Schober, Beetle, Oretin, Ian, and Mojang.


Oretin had the idea of moving to Japan, where he did, however the town he founded , Hoshido, was attacked by Tortugan forces within an hour of creation, forcing Oretin to let it go. Next, Oretin and Beetle joined Ventus in Egypt, where they were given the option to create Suez. Oretin became the leader of this short-lived town.

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 had acquired the funds, with the assistance of Ian, who had joined during early access and thus had a head start, 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. Panama had turned out to be going extremely well. All worries of other factions claiming Panama had been distinguished and the nation was booming in population.
Oretin left Suez and joined Munich, where beetle had recently become mayor, so he could particpate in fighting Tortugas alongside Germany. It was during this time period that Oretin went missing for over a month. He didn't return until August 2, 2017, when he came back to Beetles Lisbon, which was part of Spain. Oretin lived in Spain for the rest of the month. At the end of the month, Lisbon fell and he joined Madrid, where he lived for about 2 days.

Oretin returned to Graz, and shortly after moved to Bering, a town he founded on the coast of the Bering Strait. Shortly after founding these, he passed the position of mayor to Landrew1, and moved to Amsterdam, where He and beetle reunited, along with fellow Austrians, this is where it was decided that Austria would be reformed. This never followed through however. He went inactive and almost quit along with other players to play on Praxis, which was seen as a better server at the time.
(Link above for detailed chronicling of the conflict, the following is the role Oretin played in the conflict)


=== Late December - Early February ===
Leading up to the ultimate declaration of war by Panama on Wabanaki, Oretin had already been feeling contempt for the Wabanaki citizens who were constantly threatening Panama as a whole. When tensions were high between the two nations, a Wabanaki citizens traveled through the Panama Canal and down the west coast of South America. Panamanian citizens hailing from Quito took this as a threat and chased the Wabanaki citizen. A battle broke out in the city of Quito, wherein Wabanaki leaders were present, which resulted in the Panamanian government becoming even more outraged. The governments of both nations were enraged, and tensions grew even more. A deal was made later that evening which attempted to end the conflict, however it failed only the next morning. Chiefs Logan and Dime were spotted off the coast of a Panamanian village constructing a fort. This was reported to the Presidente by Oretin, and naturally he was unbelievably upset. Paper sent forces to destroy the fort. Beetle was one of the first to arrive that the scene of the forts construction. Because of Beetles arrival, Dime would retreat to another nearby fort. He was followed by Beetle, and he destroyed the fort, which resulted in him being killed by Logan. This caused a fleet of Panamanian soldiers, including Oretin, to ultimately destroy both of the forts. The next battle he participated in was the Battle of The South, in which he assisted in building the massive Fort Runner just outside of the Comanche capital. The same day this battle occurred, peace talks began, and were successful this time around. This effectively ended the war.
He returned to the server after about two months and joined Munich, run by 73beetle. Due to being the "perfect German" according to [[caarliitoo]], he was one of the first to be rewarded the Iron Cross. Not much longer later, he became a minister of Germany, or a council member. However, only a few weeks later, the town of Munich seceded from Germany, and 73beetle created the nation of Bavaria, which later became, Austria, which Oretin was granted the title of Kanzler in, becoming co-leader in Austria once again. After about 3 days of Austria existing, Adolf_Hitlar was unbanned, which hyped the fuck out of Germans, including Oretin. Austria was disbanded quickly to reunify under Hitlars Germany.


=== Mid February - Death ===
=== ''Campaign for The Presidency'' ===
[[File:2018-02-02 21.03.55.png|thumb|302x302px|Graz during reconstruction]]
After about five days, 73beetle became bored with [[Germania]]. He eventually decided to have Munich leave Germania, and recreate Austria. The nation was created when [[Schober60]] bought Brendan1903's nation for only 64 gold, renaming it Austria. Oretin_ was named Kanzler (Second-In-Command) of the Second Austrian Republic. However, after a period of inactivity of Austrian citizens, Oretin decided to quit the server until around the end of May/ Early June.


== Friends ==
Oretins campaign started almost immediately after the first election was called. Prior to the first election, Paper and Oretin made a deal stating that whoever won the first election would endorse and campaign with the other for the next election. Paper began to pump out "Vote Oretin" memes, which would go on to become a globally known phrase. Oretins campaign quickly gained traction and gained the support of many Panamanians. Supporters were creating their own campaign ads supporting Oretin. Oretin also had the support of almost the entire Panamanian government, with the exception of Runner, who was also running. All over Panama, signs sprung up with the phrase "Vote Oretin" written. Following the display of extreme support by the people of Panama, a victory by Oretin was widely expected.

For a lengthy period of time between the announcement of Terra Nova and the release, Oretin was undecided on what he would pursue in Terra Nova. Near 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.

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 had acquired the funds, with the assistance of Ian, who had joined during early access and thus had a head start, The City of New Ulm was founded, being the first city in the Panama Core.

Panama had turned out to be going extremely well. All worries of other factions claiming Panama had been distinguished and the nation was booming in population.

The Fort War

(Link above for detailed chronicling of the conflict, the following is the role Oretin played in the conflict)

Leading up to the ultimate declaration of war by Panama on Wabanaki, Oretin had already been feeling contempt for the Wabanaki citizens who were constantly threatening Panama as a whole. When tensions were high between the two nations, a Wabanaki citizens traveled through the Panama Canal and down the west coast of South America. Panamanian citizens hailing from Quito took this as a threat and chased the Wabanaki citizen. A battle broke out in the city of Quito, wherein Wabanaki leaders were present, which resulted in the Panamanian government becoming even more outraged. The governments of both nations were enraged, and tensions grew even more. A deal was made later that evening which attempted to end the conflict, however it failed only the next morning.

He was followed by Beetle, and he destroyed the fort, which resulted in him being killed by Logan. This caused a fleet of Panamanian soldiers, including Oretin, to ultimately destroy both of the forts. The next battle he participated in was the Battle of The South, in which he assisted in building the massive Fort Runner just outside of the Comanche capital. The same day this battle occurred, peace talks began, and were successful this time around. This effectively ended the war.

Campaign for The Presidency

Oretins campaign started almost immediately after the first election was called. Prior to the first election, Paper and Oretin made a deal stating that whoever won the first election would endorse and campaign with the other for the next election. Paper began to pump out "Vote Oretin" memes, which would go on to become a globally known phrase. Oretins campaign quickly gained traction and gained the support of many Panamanians.

Oretin won in a landslide, earning 79% of the vote, and Cranberry Sprite came in second with 16% of the vote.

Presidency

The morning after the election, the inauguration ceremony was held in Panama City. The ceremony had a high attendance rate from Panamanians and Non-Panamanians alike.

Death and Collapse of Panama

While on a Presidential visit to the poverty ridden Panaman town of Tropisch, Oretin was gunned down by a rival gang. Shortly afterwards, 73beetle said the n word a few times and got banned, prompting the rest of the Panaman core to quit the server, ultimately killing Panama.

Political Alignment

Panama Blue Conservative Party

Oretin was a founding member and co-leader of the Panama Blue Conservative party. The PBC believed in an independent Panama, improvement of infrastructure and prioritizing the construction of the Panama Canal, minimizing revision of the constitution of Panama, a free society, no territorial expansion, no war, no entangling agreements, a strong central government, and complete neutrality.

Paper's Administration

Although Paper was the leader and founder of the PBC, during his presidency he dubiously followed the ideals of the party. Swaths of land were admitted under his administration, including Hispaniola, Belize, Maracaibo, the Galapagos Islands, and more. This gave Panama even more control than it already had over the Central America / Caribbean world, and although Oretin didn't support mass territorial expansion, he welcomed the admission of these territories into the country.
