The Spectrum was founded shortly after 17:00 on May 12th 2006. Its original purpose was to showcase the difference, or spectrum, between members I Know Better Than You and Calumnius. However, its purpose has since expanded. The Spectrum initially experienced fast growth before slowing down for a period of time. Recently however, growth has increased, although now it is showing signs of slowing down once again. The Spectrum's politics are generally anarchistic although a defacto democracy exists surrounding the UN delegate. There are few laws - although some members are trying to change that.

Laws
Representative Democracy Act 2007
Written by Calumnius, this act aims to pave the way for more democracy within The Spectrum. Originally the act never gained majority and could not be passed. Since it's recent revision, the act is now in place and states that nations must name another nation who will vote for them if they are unavailable during a vote to pass a resolution. This information is to be kept in a list. As of yet, no nations have named their representatives.
Single Nation Act 2007
Written by Sabrateur, this act states that each player with a nation in The Spectrum must only have one nation within The Spectrum. Any that have multiple will be forced to either delete them or remove them from The Spectrum. This act does not affect a nation player's right to anonymity.

The Spectrum runs several inter-regional games and competitions from time to time, the most prominent of these being Werewolf/Mafia games.
