=== Birth (Late July 2017) ===

When Syn decided to disband [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW ]]in late July of 2017 due to constant war, the towns of the former [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]] were offered a new nation by Framotosh, leader of the nation Swedish-[[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]]. Most of the former [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]] towns quickly joined Framo's nation, which was renamed Prestige_Imperium or PI. While not as large as [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]], it was able to reclaim most of the core towns of [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]], such as America and Juahana. ~~(Both are now part of Canada)~~

The month of August was turbulent for the nation. Many detractors, some of them former [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]], came and declared PI illegitimate. Internally, many citizens did not know what to think, but most were committed to rebuilding the community they had had in [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]]. By mid-August, the nation was beginning to internally stabilize and prove its detractors wrong.

=== Decline and Fall (Nov) ===

In November, PI began a rapid decline from over 200 people, down to 81. With this decline, their global power began to spiral down the drain, with key towns such as [[America (Town)]], [[Yorktown]], Hungary (Copenhagen), Denmark~~, Georgia,~~ and many other towns leaving the Global Dictatorship for regional nations or to found their own. During this time, we cannot be sure, as outsiders to the Prestige Nation, but based on logical guesses, and what PI refugees have told people, the dictatorship and oppressive behaviors are likely to have gotten far worse. We will only know for sure when PI finally falls.

Canada and Spain have only now taken the place of PI as the superpower of the world, despite Canada being larger in population for some time.

On 30 November, Flofjord left PI to join the New World Order, centered in Georgia. This marks the end of PI.

== Prestige Imperium Holdouts ==

While Flofjord's abandonment of Prestige Imperium in November 2017 is often credited to be the end of the nation, a nearly a dozen small towns remained. None of them were very big, nor had the intent of trying to restore PI. Over time, these towns slowly abandoned the nation as well. By January 2018, six town remained in the nation. By March 2018, only two remained.

In February 2018, [[GymSock17]], the owner of [[Timor]], inherited the nation. He was well aware of the morally grey past PI had with it. His only reason to keep the nation was because he used the nation's existence as a tool for isolationism and to drive away more aggressive groups from trying to annex Timor.

''"Most people have forgotten that PI is still a political entity on the server. Since people don't want to seem to touch the nation with a ten-foot pole, people will leave our town alone...."''

-GymSock17, talking to fellow Timorian HawtDawg__. - 7/2/2018 (D/M/Y)

Gym's method of isolationism worked for a while, with no nations contacting him for weeks and barely any outsiders showing up on the island. However, nations such as [[Spain]] and [[Japan]] began to set their sights on the island. In late February and early March 2018, Gym became concerned that the nation was now gaining him the attention that he wanted to avoid.

''"Requests from the Spanish to enter their nation have been increasing, and the Japanese have been placing banners and colonies around the island like they own the place. I'm beginning to fear we may have to join one of them simply to get the other to leave us alone."''

-GymSock17, talking to fellow Timorians HawtDawg__ and RubTheBear. - 3/10/18

On 17 March 2018, GymSock17 logged in with the intent to disband Prestige Imperium before he logged off, and discuss the future of the town with his fellow Timorians the next day. However, while he was excavating in the Timor Mine, he received a message from a player, named Brendan1903, who requested that he disband the nation in exchange for 64 gold. Seeing this as an excellent opportunity to end the nation with a bonus, GymSock17 officially ended the Realm of Prestige Imperium.

=== Fascism and silencing of opposition ===

Even more than the [[Prestige WorldWide (PWW)|PWW]], the PI is known for being unnecessarily repressive and in the opinion of many they try to sugarcoat extremely unjust systems of governing and attempt to forcefully silence any opposition [[Category:Nations]]
