After creating their town, [[57gorky]] placed a chest, furnace and a crafting table to start off the town. After creating the town, they had nothing on them but some wheat and seeds. This was their temporary base of operations for now. The crafting table is well known for still being in the original spot it was placed and has not been destroyed since. | After creating their town, [[57gorky|gorkymoo1119]] placed a chest, furnace and a crafting table to start off the town.

The second day is a major part of Mersa's history as it was when the town's first building, [[57gorky]]'s home, was created. It is also when the first gold was put in the town bank and the second plot claimed. It was also the day that the chest and furnace at spawn were removed, however [[57gorky]] decided to keep the crafting table to remind future residents of the town's beginnings. | The second day is a major part of Mersa's history as it was when the town's first building, [[57gorky|gorkymoo1119]]'s home, was created.

On the 18th of December 2019, the second person joined the town of Mersa, their name being 'SplatSQUID_68'. [[57gorky]] only wanted to invite people to the town after they had built the second house and claimed another plot. The second house (a modern white home) was put for sale for 6 gold and the other plot for free. SplatSQUID_68 only joined after wanting to see [[Queensland]]'s capital, [[Fuzecity]].

From the 20th of December until around the 27th of December 2019, Mersa had reached a standstill in population, with some citizens joining, but then leaving soon after. The population kept at around 3 people throughout this period. This demotivated [[57gorky]] as they wanted the town to expand and be active however everyone who joined would often leave the same or next day. [[57gorky]] was the only active player in their town at the time. | From the 20th of December until around the 27th of December 2019, Mersa had reached a standstill in population, with some citizens joining, but then leaving soon after.

During a period between Christmas day of 2019 and New Years Eve of the same year, [[57gorky]] invited an user under the name of PoLWerin. At the time, he was the 4th addition to the town. [[57gorky]] though that they may be like SplatSQUID_68, who has not been active since being invited or like 3 other residents beforehand who stayed in the town for under a day. However, unforeseen to [[57gorky]], PoLWerin was active the next day when [[57gorky]] was online, and too the next. At this point, PoLWerin had claimed a free plot to build on (not the first one to do so, however was the first to stay in the town afterwards). They made a classic styled house, part of the district of Idilenya, making it the second completed house there. This sparked new hope in [[57gorky]] as they didn't expect to stop the standstill in their population growth. | During a period between Christmas day of 2019 and New Years Eve of the same year, [[57gorky|gorkymoo1119]] invited an user under the name of PoLWerin.

During the month of January, Mersa gained 7 new residents, doubling their population.

After Mersa was promised further funding by the Yemeni government, [[57gorky]] held a referendum to see if the Mersans wished to stay part of [[Nubia]]. 100% of those who answered responded with yes, and was finalised on the 5th of March. Around 3 days later, Twomoo abdicated and gave the throne to Raining_Oranges, who then passed it onto Vlad and put it under the Yemen Empire. Seeing this happen, Raining_Oranges asked [[57gorky]] to join [[Nubia]] once more as it was now under the Yemen Empire. [[57gorky]] had a poll done to decide if he should; the majority voted yes. Later that day, Mersa rejoined [[Nubia]]. | After Mersa was promised further funding by the Yemeni government, [[57gorky|gorkymoo1119]] held a referendum to see if the Mersans wished to stay part of [[Nubia]]. 100% of those who answered responded with yes, and was finalised on the 5th of March.
