Cascadia originated from the settlement of the city of Seattle on the first day of the server, which was established as the third town on North America. It was founded by Chrysoprasus, along with [[Vorobyevite]], [[EstiQT]], and [[SayerQT]], and was intended to be a trading outpost and to eventually form a nation called [[Washington (Aurora)|Washington]]. This plan soon turned downhill, with an unfavorable and unstable geopolitical position in the Region dominated by [[California (Aurora)|California]], with many members from this original cast of founders leaving to Russia, leaving SayerQT alone to run the rump of a settlement, eventually moving to a new settlement in Olympia. SayerQT created the nation of Cascadia, with its capital in Olympia, and including the town of Seattle, on July 13, 2022, much to the dismay of the nearby [[Oregon Empire]] who saw their northwest hegemony threatened. Cascadia soon became an associate nation of New Mexico, a state of the United States of America, and signed a mutual defense treaty with [[Australia (Aurora)|Australia]]. It soon grew, with many new towns in the area either joining or being founded by Cascadia, and while a full democracy was planned from the start, a Constitution was ratified and first general elections for President, Chief Judge, and the House of Representatives were held on August 17, 2022, electing acting President SayerQT for a full term as its First President with 82.4% of the vote. | Cascadia originated from the settlement of the city of Seattle on the first day of the server, which was established as the third town on North America.
