Official plans for Chicago, and a consequential Chicagoland or Illinois nation, were conceived as early as February 2026 by [[Setrus]]. The plans were meant to be moderately critical of Cascadia, advertising a radically less bureaucratic nation with community building and activity at the forefront. In March these plans were later merged into the plans for America (then Midwest) when [[sayerleft]] discussed the idea with Setrus, who accepted on the basis of having access to a larger group of founders with a higher likelihood of creating Chicago. In the infancy of America's planning, Chicago was floated around as the top choice for the nation's capital due to its notability and central location within the United States. However when sayerleft, the longtime nation holder for Aurora Cascadia, floated the idea of being nation leader for America, Milwaukee became the capital instead after Setrus refused giving up Chicago to sayerleft. | Official plans for Chicago, and a consequential Chicagoland or Illinois nation, were conceived as early as February 2026 by [[Setrus]].

June 24: In America, the founders behind Memphis which included Knowlton, Kayleemar, and friends left after feeling trapped and powerless due to the ironically named [[Memphis Accords]] as well as contempt towards the general incompetence and bureaucracy brewing in the nation. They created Kaktovik and later gained ownership of the Alaska nation. | |||

July 3: In Chicago, plans for a Chicagoland nation were revived in response to the growing pressure between the status-quo and the reform sides of the nation. These plans were temporarily placed on hold in favor of attempting to reform America. | |||
==== August 2026 ==== | |||
Early August: In Chicago, as a last ditch effort to reform the nation plans to draft a national referendum to change the capital of America to Chicago were solidified. If it failed, Chicago planned to peacefully secede. Construction of a mega shop also started in Chicago in preparation for becoming a nation capital. | |||
August 15: In Acadia, the Micoua community and others secede to New York. | |||
In America, due to unrelated circumstances sayerleft decided to quit EarthMC and consequently stepped down as being nation holder of America. After hearing about Chicago's plans for a national referendum on a capital change, sayerleft personally supported the idea and drafted a resolution to Congress which would ceremonially confirm the move. The resolution ended up barely failing with 6 no votes, 5 yes votes, and 2 abstentions due to unsubstantiated concerns around America becoming a Chicago-ran city state. As a compromise to prevent America from becoming divided, Bachinuni was chosen by sayerleft move to Milwaukee and become nation holder and mayor of Milwaukee. | |||
August 16: In America, Chicago follows through with their plan secede but temporarily joins New York. In response, the entirety of New Jersey secedes to New York. | |||
August 17: In Chicago, the nation of Heartlands is created (later renamed to Chicagoland). In the following days the American towns Cleveland, Dollywood, and Normalsville would end up joining. | |||
August 29: In California, the nation is nuked and robbed by shadowcipher and other chancellors. Soon after they create the nation of Pacific and announce their coup. | |||
August 31: Pacific announces that their coup was successful and that they will retain all diplomatic relations and borders from California. They recognize the rump state of California/San Francisco as a Pacific city-state dependency governed by Pacific. | |||
