Winthrop

Early History

Winthrop was founded by sayerbtheiss who is a former citizen of both Astoria, London, and Vancouver, after multiple failed attempts at creating towns such as La Conner and Port Townsend. After failing at his endeavor at Port Townsend, he ventured into the mountains to find a town that he has been to in real life and has had an enjoyable time there. He established the town on February 1, 2020. The first building there was the Winthrop Spawn Tent, which worked as the only building in the town until February 13, when the Winthrop Grand Station was constructed. It was originally created as part of the Republic of Cascadia but later succeeded and joined the Salish Federation with Vorobyevite, JTPilfered and others in that area.

Conflicts

When Winthrop was close to being established, Walla Walla attempted to cut short the creation of Winthrop, by attacking members of the expedition to Winthrop, which included sayerbtheiss and Solar_City of Siloam Springs.

Salish Federation

On the 9th of February, 2020, Vorobyevite, and other towns sympathetic to the cause (including Winthrop) had communications discussing their distaste with the Cascadian government, leaked by KingBerman of Cascadia. Cascadia has accused the newly formed Salish Federation of embezzling funds from Cascadia, as they did with the Pacific Republic, which has been proven false by Estonian_Mapping themselves saying that payments were gifts, and not loans requiring payments back. What followed was a furious response from an already weakened Cascadia, dealt blows from Washington and Ontario leaving the union. The Salish Federation leaders are to be put on trial on 2/11/20, which none plan to attend, viewing it as nothing but a sham only to incriminate those who wanted freedom from Cascadia's fading democracy.
