History

After the November Revolution of 2005, the Ethical Empire that dominated The Island of Atlantis fell. As this ethical state devolved, things had to change on the main land of the island and surrounding smaller islands. Since the Head of the Empire could no longer control the flow of revolution, he quickly sued for peace, and allowed any region within its borders to break away if the populace voted to. Out of these preliminary votes, Southeastern Baptisia was birthed. On the southeastern corner of Atlantis came this beautiful free land that would border part of the now dwindling Ethical States. Off of the east coast of Baptisia lives the feminist inhabitants of Hillary Clintonfield. In hopes of moving forward from the bloody revolution that had already taken place, Southeastern Baptisia plans on maintaining independence and freedom for all of its liberty-loving citizens.
