Ahea suggested making Vietnam, but the others didnt want to settle there, so a compromise was reached and Acadia was chosen (for its French heritage and location in North America). <br> | ||
Soon after, [[GuyWithALife]], who had close connections to the Arcadians, convinced the Balts (comprising of [[Xultimate290bc|Xultimate]], [[Mikieu]], MMMeslina, and others) to join Acadia in lieu of making a nation in Europe. The flag of Acadia, which had representation for Havaiki and Baltic, was designed around this time. <br> | Soon after, [[GuyWithALife]], who had close connections to the Arcadians, convinced the Balts (comprising of [[Xultimate290bc|Xultimate]], [[Mikieu]], MMMeslina, and others) to join Acadia in lieu of making a nation in Europe.

Later on, a group of individuals who were originally part of the planned nation of Cariboo, including [[BergenFly|Fly]], Foxclient, [[Ka_tie]], [[PavTheYT]], Rip1C, and [[The_Last_Comment]], would leave Cariboo and join Acadia following a dispute regarding the future leadership of their nation. Rip1C and The_Last_Comment would later rejoin Cariboo. | Later on, a group of individuals who were originally part of the planned nation of Cariboo, including [[BergenFly|Fly]], Foxclient, [[Ka_tie]], [[PavTheYT]], Rip1C, and [[The_Last_Comment]], would leave Cariboo and join Acadia following a dispute regarding the future leadership of their nation.

In order to create the first Acadian towns, the group had to first reach Nova Scotia as quickly as possible, which relied purely on luck as players spawned in random locations across the map. MasterEWild, spawning around the Midwest of America, was the closest to Nova Scotia. Thus, as other members of the group started to mine and gear up, he boated across many rivers in an attempt to reach Nova Scotia as quickly as possible | In order to create the first Acadian towns, the group had to first reach Nova Scotia as quickly as possible, which relied purely on luck as players spawned in random locations across the map.

Due to the high cost of creating a nation on Terra Nostra (5120 gold) it took 4 days of extensive mining to pool together enough funds to create the nation.
