History
Founding plans (5 April 2025 – 18 April 2026)
5 April 2025 Fix announced that the server would open a new era on 1 May 2026, prompting the Ming cabinet to begin discussions on preparations for the new era.
Early founding period (18 April 2026 – 30 April 2026)
18 April 2026 The Ming pioneering team (PreviousYun, Venti3, Judgemen_t, Su_Su_a, ji_mo) entered the server through early access. They originally planned to occupy the four major cities of Nanjing, Hangzhou, Nantong, and Yangzhou, and then try to take Shanghai. However, because competition for Shanghai was too intense, the team decided to abandon Shanghai and instead occupy Suzhou. While the team was holding an emergency meeting, the player mi_la occupied Suzhou. When the team leader checked mi_la's real identity, he found that mi_la was a Ming member from the old era and immediately invited him to join the Ming pioneering team; mi_la accepted gladly. To connect Nanjing and Suzhou, PreviousYun established Wuxi between them. At this point, the Ming pioneering team had occupied six cities—Nanjing, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Nantong, Yangzhou (now Yingtian Prefecture), and Wuxi—completing the first phase of the land-opening mission. Meanwhile, the Pomegranate Seed pioneering team also entered the server through early access. With ji_mo's help, they successfully established Guangzhou and set up a shop, then established many cities in the Greater Bay Area.

At the same time, Judgemen_t was crowned king, PreviousYun served as interim prime minister (also called interim president), and the other members of the pioneering team were appointed as national administrators.

War intensifies
26 September The town Zhejiang was captured by the Japanese invasion commander, and the nearby PRC town Huzhou was immediately attacked by Japan. After capturing most of a building, Japan destroyed the entire occupied area with TNT explosions, causing an uproar among players in the Chinese community. To salvage the loss, PRC's leadership mobilized a large number of players suspected of being alts to counter-OC. Admin intervention did not achieve the desired result.
27 September Because of "using alts" and other reasons, PRC's top leader TimeSpace_ZONE, Shanghai mayor LAOLING__, and multiple PRC players were banned. Although PRC claimed that the bans were based on inconclusive evidence and that the losses had been controlled, players supporting the united front generally considered this the "darkest day" since the start of the Sino-Japanese War.
