History
Little is know of the history of Willink Pre-Kentuckistan Era, as most of the files were destroyed following the Revolts of 1910. What is know is that Willink served as an outpost and trading center for Kentuckistan, and many ships of other empires would dock and trade goods.
By 1910, Willink (Then known as the Colony of Webster)had grown population wise to 20 million people, the largest of the Kentuckistanian colonies, and was becoming increasingly hostile to its occupants. Following several large riots, Several hundred firearms were smuggled into the colony by Risban(Who was on hostile terms with Kentuckistan at the time), and Radicals and Rioters held the government hostage in the Senate building in the old city of Ayl, including the president of Kentuckistan who was on a visit. They demanded that Webster become it's own country, and The President signed the agreement on the spot, and was free to go. After the rest of the Government had left, the Senate building was vandalized and burned down, and the new residences of Webster celebrated their own nation. A mere 2 months after the Nationilization, the countries name was changed to Willink.
