The area now known as Astoria was first settled by the Oregonian people. Ryzenix was a founding member of the [[Oregon Empire]] who established the town of Astoria on May 14, 2022, the same day as the other historic imperial towns of Portland and the imperial capital of Salem. Eugene, which would fall into ruin after just two months, would be founded by NestBird as a town of the Oregon Empire on June 2nd, and Milgorn123, fleeing political persecution from the Crown of Texas, founded the town of Oceanside in between Astoria and Eugene on August 4th. Ryzenix's Astoria, which also settled across the Columbia River, would engage in a claim-battle in July with the newly-founded Cascadian capital city of Olympia over the region now known as the Riverway in Southeast Downtown Olympia. This battle led to Astoria holding possession of a region of land terminating at what is now the intersection of Loowit Ave and S. Washington Street in Downtown Olympia. In early September 2022, Ryzenix was banned from EarthMC, and the town of Astoria would fall into ruin, leading the increasingly metropolitan city of Oceanside under Milgorn123's leadership to annex the territory of the former city of Astoria up to the Columbia River, with the Cascadian capital of Olympia annexing the former city's territory north of the river. Oceanside would go on to play a pivotal role in the Six-Hour War, being the catalyst for Oregon's defeat by seceding from Oregon amidst the conflict and being incorporated into the Republic of Cascadia. In the several months following Oceanside's incorporation into Cascadia, Milgorn123 would move to the Columbia Plateau, instigating a series of mayoral transitions from Milgorn123 to RealLimpopo and later to Moxicodone. | The area now known as Astoria was first settled by the Oregonian people.
