Establishment of Kilton Peak
Kilton Peak was established on May 10, 2020. It joined the Salish Federation and quicky grew to 30 chunks in the first week. It was in the ruins of Old Argos, waiting to be fixed. This was the start to Kilton Peak's success.
Rio Grande Raidings
The large country of Rio Grande is a mass meganation. When Salish split from Cascadia, they were upset and threatend death to all citizens of Salish. In contrast, Kilton Peak was raided at least 4 times a week by either BonZZil, or Cubs. For revenge, the mayor, UghK1, and his friend, ItchyBarn, setup a trap outisde of Walla Walla, and trapped BonZZil. This made Washington very mad at Kilton Peak. They began raiding the town more and more often, and Washington then declared hatred towards Salish. This caused brutal killing, iceroad griefing, and proximity grief to all towns in the Salish Federation.
The Memorial Day Boom
Kilton Peak had reached about 50 plots, and had many homes up for sale. The population at the time was 4, and UghK1 wanted to sell these homes. Around 17 plots were for sale, and Kilton Peak was about to experience their boom in population. On Memorial Day Weekend, the recruiting status in Kilton Peak became high. The population that weekend went from 4 to 22. Surpassing Seattle in population, and making it the largest city in the Federation. The growth continued and after Ayr_ resigned as Minister of Recruitment, UghK1 then became that role in the government. This growth led Kilton Peak to major success.
Tensions Rise
The relationship between BonZZil and UghK1 was getting less and less friendly. This resulted in a little mini war between Walla Walla residents and Kilton Peak residents. BlueLiv3sMatter was killed by BonZZil twice. In return, Blue then killed him in the nether twice once again. This was caused by the rapid growth in Kilton Peak, angering BonZZil, and mailing the citizens mail everyday, telling them to leave. Of course, this attempt failed miserably, causing the residents of both towns to be angered. However, peace was attempted by Salish and Kilton Peak. Kilton Peak was attempting to leave Salish and join Cascadia, to get on better terms with Washington. This result was denied by Bon, making Kilton Peak stay in Salish. These tensions continued into June
The Beginning of June 2020
The Salish Federation continued to see massive growth, jumping from /n list page 4, to /n list page 2. xGoat, the new chancellor, then continued it's growth, making Salish to be the 10th largest nation on the server. Rio and Washington did not like this. They were still trying to steal citizens and to make them think that Salish was a terrible nation. Tensions continued to rise between the nations, which led to even more raids to the towns of Winthrop, Cranbrooke, and Kilton Peak.
The Canadian Empire
The Canadian Empire is a large meganation in Canada. The Salish Federation joined the Canadian Empire on June 6th. This was another attempt to try and become peaceful/neutral with Rio Grande. However, this didn't last long. Some members of Ruperts Land and HBC, countries in CE, raided Kilton Peak along with BonZZil. Making fun of the town, and the citizens. Since half of CE was on Rio's side, and Salish was still in the conflict with them, the Canadian Empire kicked out the Salish Federation.
The Reaction
After this outcome, UghK1, the mayor of Kilton Peak, announced the kick in the Kilton Peak town discord. This angered the town, forcing every citizen to go into critical kill/war mode, killing any enemy that entered a small radius of the town. This led Salish to be on the offensive side of the war. After this, the Salish Federation continued to have war with Washington and Rio.
Neutrality
Kilton Peak had tried leaving the Salish Federation because of the thought of being on better and more friendly terms with other nations on the server. On June 20, 2020, Kilton Peak left the Salish Federation and went to the Republic of Cascadia. There Kilton Peak became more friendly with more nations on the server and not hated as much anymore. This move made Kilton Peak end its war with Washington and Rio Grande.
The Republic of Cascadia
Today Kilton Peak sits in the nation of Cascadia. A happy, peaceful town with nothing to worry about. Ever since June 20, they found peace with more and more countries, aswell as opening up more business options aswell. This also led to another burst in population in Kilton Peak, from the population going from 37 to 48 in 3 days. The citizens helped out and created a nice national park, the Canadian Rockies. Built by UghK1, sifosofieee, and Nikoh_.
Canadian Rockies National Park

The 4th Of July Boom
The Canadian Rockies as a megacity was already gaining population, but the city of Kilton Peak was about to have its biggest spike yet. On July 4th, a townless invasion occurred in the morning with nearly 40 people townless. Out of the 40 people, Kilton Peak managed to recruit 14 people, surpassing the 50 mark in population. The next day, the surge continued, with 8 more people added to the town. And finally, on July 6th, it had its last surge of 6 people in one day. In all, the three days brought 28 new people to the city. Surpassing the 60 population mark, and being placed #13 in towns on the town list, tied with Toledo.

Old Argos' History
Old Argos was a small village of where the present city of Kilton Peak lies today. It was a beautiful village containing a monument that held the nether portal, and a mill tower that looked over the mountain range. The town was in Cascadia until about Janurary of 2020, where the town fell, leaving it abandoned. The ruins still remained for the next 4 months until the town of Kilton Peak was created. Remodeling the buildings, and making them stand as they once were. The idea of Argos didn't come back until late June 2020.
New Argos' establishment
Kilton Peak at this time was getting overpopulated, so the city council decided to come up with an idea, a megatown. This was the first megatown ever on the EarthMC server. On June 27, 2020, two people by the name of sifosofieee, and Nikoh_, were looking for a nice place to start fresh. The mayor of Kilton Peak reached out to them and invited them to the town. They agreed to join, and they helped building numerous things, like the national park, and the district of Rocky Valley. However as time went on, they wanted to create a new town, but bordering Kilton Peak. This was when the megatown idea came into play. On June 30, LawOfRence funded the new town, with the establishment being around midnight on July 1, 2020. The megatown was born! The twin cities of Kilton Peak and Argos created the megatown of the Canadian Rockies.
