History

Westmoore

The Republic of Agnovilan was founded on September 16th, 2006. Since joining the Westmoore region on October 4th, 2006, Agnovilan quickly became the dominant powerbroker of the region. Gaining the delegateship only 6 days after joining the region, Agnovilan consistently showed democratic and just representation of the region on the world stage in relations with other regions and the UN. Agnovilan led efforts that resulted in the building up of Westmoore to a peak population of 41 nations. In further efforts to improve the quality of Westmoore, Agnovilan created a regional wiki page for Westmoore, a regional map, and an off-site forum page. The forum page was used by Agnovilan to begin talks regarding the formation of a regional constitution and interregional alliances, as well as UN issues and other regional matters.

Always a staunch supporter of free speech and an advocate of the rights of member nations, Agnovilan stood up for a new nation against two older nations who wanted the new nation ejected. The new nation had been gaining many endorsements and the older nations wanted him ejected because they suspected him of plotting to take over the delegateship and overthrow the regional government. Agnovilan refused to eject the nation without any condemning evidence. The two older nations left Westmoore as a result and started a new region, New Westmoore, and took with them most of the active members of Westmoore. Even after this incident, Agnovilan still stood up for the freedom of speech of its constituents, defending another nation who voiced his opposition to the formation of New Westmoore on the Westmoore forums, even when the two older nations (now the founder and delegate of New Westmoore) demanded Agnovilan eject him.

Eastern Europe

Eventually, Agnovilan, who, along with the two founding nations of New Westmoore, was still attempting to make efforts toward peace between the two regions, decided that the last option for peace between the regions was to remove itself from the equation. On April 12th, 2007, The Federated Republic of Agnovilan stepped down from the delegateship and removed its membership in the region of Westmoore in a last-ditch attempt to further peace between Westmoore and New Westmoore after serving as delegate for 187 days. Agnovilan spent nearly a month as a member of Eastern Europe, where it gained substantial respect and influence and came within one endorsement of gaining the delegacy. While in Eastern Europe, Agnovilan participated greatly in the role play on the regional forums and created strong alliances with the nations of The Hellenic Confederation and Jannteuvvel.

The Praetorian Empire

While in Eastern Europe, Sergeant General, the founder of The Praetorian Empire, asked Agnovilan to come to The Praetorian Empire and rule as Consul of the Empire. Agnovilan agreed, and on May 10th, 2007, the Federated Republic of Agnovilan left Eastern Europe and arrived in The Praetorian Empire as The Imperial Consulate of Agnovilan. Only ten days later, Agnovilan gained the delegacy. Agnovilan served the region well for 52 days, eventually stepping down from the delegacy of its own accord and handing the office over to Ellenburg, who had recently ended a long term as delegate of Autropolis. In the less than two months that it served as delegate of The Praetorian Empire, Agnovilan boosted regional population from 45 members to a peak population of 108 members, after a merger with the region of Empire of Rome. Agnovilan greatly extended TPE's alliance network around the NationStates world and created a foreign policy of diplomacy rather than war.

Since then, Rogernomics has also joined the Pact.

The Cabinet consists of Ministers of Defense, Education, Human Services, Education, and Foreign Affairs.

Utilizing a federated republican system of government, Agnovilan's federal government shares power with the provincial governments, which run according to the same structure as the federal government.
