History

The Eardrum-Shattering Empire of Audio Assault's history dates back to May of 2003. The founder of AA had started out with a country called The Rogue Nation of Cemeteria. If the history books are correct, Cemeteria did not last very long.

Fast forward to March of 2004, when the founder of Cemeteria had a little more time on his hands. As he was creating this country, he was listening to an old Van Halen album (the 1st one). "Eruption" blasted out of the worn-out speakers on his computer, and the phrase "Audio Assault" jumped out of the recesses of his brain and onto the keyboard.

The Rouge Nation of Audio Assault spent the first two months of it's existence in the West Pacific. The founder remembered hearing about Axis of Absurdity back in the Cemeteria days, and decided to make for the Axis.

In Sepetmber 2004, the Rouge Nation of Audio Assault reached the half-billion population mark. This is when Audio Assault changed from a Rouge Nation to an Eardrum-Shattering Empire.

Since arriving in the Axis so many moons ago, Audio Assault has caused hearing loss from one side of the region to the other with it's incessant rock concerts. Nearly any and every rock band worthy of mention as played in AA at least a dozen times. Enormous concert arenas were built in every major city.

Current projects

Recently, the Audio Assault Space Command found a compound in an asteroid belt that could be refined into a highly potent fuel. After many sucessful tests the fuel, known as Z4, is now being used in all AA ships, and is being sold. After much consideration, 3 of the old Metallica Class ships have been extensively overhauled, renovated, and returned to service. The ex-Eddie Van Halen was the only one not rebuilt. The ex-Axl Rose was renamed Hatebreed. In addition. There a 3 privately owned space cruise ships wandering around space. As a result, the space program is now totally self-sufficient, not relying on taxes. Vice President Ozzy Osbourne purchased his own ship.

UPDATE: Audio Assault's space fleet continues to grow and change. 10 of the 13 Foghat Class vessels were replaced with massively upgraded and improved versions of the Spacetec 4000. These are now known as the Nirvana Class vessels. All AA ships now have cloaking technology, as well as 3 ships that can detect cloaked vessels. These invisible ship seekers are the Phantom Lord Class vessels, based on Spacetec's model 1400R. The David Lee Roth has become a mobile space station/command center. Alltogether, there are 4 permanent space stations, 47 interstellar ships, and 10,000 fighters, with another 40,000 due soon.
