Aurora:Lost Coast
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Lost Coast is a city-state, capital of the nation also called Lost Coast. This description will be about the nation. It was created on January 21 2023 and has six towns: The City of Lost Coast, three satellite towns of Lost Coast (Grey's Harbor, Blue Lake, Shelter Cove), as well as the village of Haines and the National Historic Village of Alturas.
Subdividing has always been really inconsistent so this is not final, but it's better to use headings as intended. So for example:
Have a Sub-heading 1 as the first one in a group
And Sub-heading 2 for specifics
Italicizing or bolding the first group makes it a lot easier to see in different to the smaller ones so its recommended.
I would not recommend subheading 3 because it looks tiny and makes things weird
otherwise, feel free to write whatever history you want here
Here's an example:
National History
National Transformations
The first California nation on EarthMC was very active and had a large community at the begining of the Aurora server in Spring and Summer of 2022. It became inactive around the time winter arrived and one of the last remaining active and flourishing parts of the nation was Fresno. Some towns left the California nation, two decided to secede and each establish their own nation: San Francisco and Fresno. While San Francisco established Norcallia, now known as norcal, and has remained since its founding a city state who's only active resident is it's mayor, Fresno became more active and expanded. Fresno established San Joaquin as its independent city-state nation in January 21 2023, and during its peak, San Joaquin had a couple of towns, around half of which no longer exist today. But some still do, those being Visalia, Madera, and Bradley. The leader of Fresno retired from leading around spring of 2023 and asked Rocksthunder of Lost Coast if he could take his x_______'s place as leader of San Joaquin. He chose Rocksthunder specifically because Rocksthunder maintained close relations with the community of San Joaquin even after he moved out of Fresno to establish his own community, and he cared deeply for Fresno even when it was hated by a lot of the EarthMC community for being "ugly". Rocksthunder was open to the idea, but before he could accept, a player known as SSLChampion pressured x________ to let him lead San Joaquin instead. SSL was a long time resident of Fresno but he was also very disliked by the EarthMC community for being a jerk. When x________ conceded and handed leadership over to SSL, SSL soon sold Fresno and San Joaquin to a colonist from the nation of Bavaria, HDKONUK. HDKONUK sent someone to hold on to Fresno. That person kicked all the OG residents of Fresno and looted the entire town. The surrounding suburbs of Fresno, part of the San Joaquin nation became worried and uncertain of their future in the nation, and the region as a whole. Rocksthunder, the mayor of Lost Coast, convinced HDKONUK to let him buy back the nation from him, but HDKONUK gave Rocksthunder just 2 weeks to get 2,048 gold for it. But he, along with the help of one of the most veteran and loyal residents of Lost Coast, Scotttishrum, mined extensively for the gold and they got it. After paying, Rocksthunder became the new leader of San Joaquin. Rocksthunder renamed San Joaquin to Jefferson, and led the nation to heights that a California nation never before and never again would achieve on the server. At its peak, the nation owned around ~95% of all territory in California (essentially uniting California for the first and only time in the server), around 500 chunks of land outside of California, and was the most active nation in the Americas for around a month. Jefferson's success relied heavily on Rocksthunder's leadership, and without it it would not have survived, that's why Rocksthunder decided to merge the nation with the more democratic and stable Cascadia further north when he retired at the end of 2023. However, he did not disband the nation; instead he kept it as a city-state held by his friend in the village of Alturas for until Christmas day of 2024, when Rocksthunder/Lost Coast decided to secede from Cascadia for several reasons (the deepstate government attempted to sabotaged Rocksthunder/Lost Coast twice, the community became more toxic, the active player base was mostly replaced by fake and unfriendly newcomers, etc) and the capital of Jefferson was moved to Lost Coast, and subsequently the nation was renamed to Lost Coast, ending the nearly two-year-long saga of the nation- from Fresno, San Joaquin to Lost Coast, Lost Coast.
City of Lost Coast
The founder of Lost Coast first joined Fresno in December of 2022, during the first major activity drought in California and when the region was split by an inactive California in the center and south, and an expansionist Cascadia in the north. Rocks
Government
It's important and as such required to add how the government of the nation functions. Obviously, anything secretive can be left out entirely, but outright wrong information is not okay. If this creates conflict contact a wiki mod about the issue. This can be very simple (EX Sealand is a monarchy with an emperor who rules all affairs of state, diplomacy, and military), or incredibly complicated, as long as theirs something.
Military
Additionally, it's important to write about the military, whether there is one or not. Like government, this can be very simple or very complicated at your discretion. If a nation only uses militia, feel free to just write that or detail them. If a nation has no military whatsoever and refuses to ever fight, that's another relevant point and should be discussed in the tab.
Buildings
This can also be named Architecture/World wonders/whatever. This will be required for new wiki pages on nations in addition to town pages, but nations can obviously use buildings from any member town or any "territory" it owns. Natural wonders are perfectly fine as well.
Notable People
This is a required field to detail important members of the town historically or currently, so it's easier to tell which people are in which area and to get a better idea of the region. This can be organized in a list, for example:
- Rocksthunder
- CoderHarris
- JAGL05
- KagChub
- Scotttishrum
- John_By
- Kombolizmo
- JustDriveTrucks
- Brylol1201

- friendofmario
- Tomatillo1
- Yarou
- Clubby20
- MartoGamer
- ALuckyCrafter
- DaMintLady
- Arielblablabla
- NotMakarov
- Jerome_Engineer
- Maggen2012
- x________
- Psllonllc

National Subdivisions
This isn't required but is highly recommended to help add space and add meat to your article, mostly for larger or federal nations. This refers to towns, states, provinces, autonomous regions, or other smaller sections of a nation that can be described individually. This IS optional however. This is specified so it's more clear, for example you could have a subdivision for each province or colony. Generally it's at your discretion.
Other Recommended Headings
The following are not required but it's recommended to have at least something extra for your town page. Most are applicable to most nations.
- Political Affiliation
- Political Parties
- Politics
- Economics (This may be made required depending on it's role in terra nova)
- Diplomacy (highly, highly, highly recommended)
- Maps
- Pictures
- Culture
- Navy (gl making this work though lol)
- Anything else that isn't ridiculous and can with reason fit into the wiki
