The '''Empire of Forgottenlands''' was founded upon a recommendation of the [[Nation]] of [[Gauss-Jordan]] in early 2003.  The founders of the respective nations, Forgottenlord of Forgottenlands and Gauss of Gauss-Jordan, had been friends from their time working in an old feudal kingdom together, known as [[Aetheron]].  The two created the [[region]] of Aetheron within the NationStates world and, for the most part, kept to themselves.  As May rolled around both, losing interest, left the leadership of their respective nations to fend for themselves and started wandering the world, no longer interested in the politics of the day.

Like this week
  
Nearly 2 years later, under advisement of the Grand Duchy of [[Itsenpotiijaa]], Forgottenlord returned to his nation, and Aetheron.  Again, his activity within the world was unnoticable.  He spent the better part of April and early May in a haphazard state, not really caring much for or about his nation - though keeping his beliefs in check.  However, unlike during its time spent ruling along side Gauss-Jordan, Forgottenlands did not return to the [[UN]].  Regardless, in his time away, the (originally) rather small nation had blossomed into a nation of nearly 1 billion people.  To help relieve his boredom, Forgottenlord founded a second nation, the Armed Republic of [[Angel Fire]].  While he remained committed to civil rights and values with Forgottenlands, Angel Fire he treated with impunity - making the rich richer and the poor slaves.  However, it was by chance that Angel Fire got noticed before it left for Aetheron.
+
== History ==
 
+
The region of [[Aberdeen]] (formally known as the United Nations of Aberdeen), just getting its start within the world and interested in making a name for itself, had spotted Angel Fire and invited Forgottenlord to join them.  Forgottenlord did so, and quickly became a prominent figure within Aberdeen politics.  Even though he decided against running for a position within the First Aberdeen Parliment, he soon voiced several opinions on the Constitution that was being drafted.  The result was a few minor changes to the constitution - giving a bit more power back to the states - in particular, concerning matters of free trade.</p>
+
 
+
As the positions and policies of the First Aberdeen Parliment were brought into discussion, Forgottenlord noted the lack of capability to perform the legislative duties within Aberdeen.  Within a day of his mentioning it, the Aberdeen House of Members was officially openned (as had been defined by the Constitution).  Within the week, Forgottenlord had brought forth the first 4 Bills for the House of Members to consider.  All 4 passed - 2 of which by a unanimous vote.  Amongst the laws was the regulations of making laws and election policies.
+
 
+
Again, feeling a slightly lesser interest, Forgottenlord sagged a bit after his 4 successes.  Looking for things to do, he began reading through [[UN proposals]] and advising the Prime Minister on which resolutions he felt should be endorsed.  After a while, he was recognized as the analyzer of the UN within the region and given full authority over all UN related discussions - even though the delegacy still lay in the hands of the Prime Minister.  At one point, he was brought forth into the realms of the UN building when his understanding of UN regulations was challenged by [[Vastiva]].  Reading through the [[Hackian laws]] (only previously having read the Enodian Acts), he realized how blissfully ignorant he was within the UN.  Seeking a larger involvement within the world government, he petitioned his Aberdeen to be considered the Aberdeen Ambassador to the UN, a position that was readily given to him.
+
 
+
At around the same time, increasing demand within the Empire of Forgottenlands and the United Nations of Aberdeen to have a represenation within the UN, and recognizing the realm of his new duty, Forgottenlord conceded with a petition by many individuals from one Province to seperate from the Empire politically (while keeping the same economic ties as before) and join the UN.  The Colony of Forgottenlands UN was formed.  In a rather ironic twist of fate, Forgottenlord was granted the title of President of the Colony as well - even though he conceded the request for UN membership.
+
 
+
Unlike with Aberdeen, Forgottenlord was unable to quickly make a name for himself.  Instead of entering an arena full of people just learning to get their feet under them, he entered a realm where many had been around for years and names were earned through lots of work.  His initial discussions produced little, but as debate began over the Bio-weapons resolution, he started to get his feet under him.  The Biological Weapons repeal and replacement resolution was, in many ways, a testing grounds for determining what was necessary to be a part of the United Nations debate team.  As the final product was brought forth, he was given a true challenge to make a name for himself: the United Nations Security Act.
+
 
+
From the moment that the UNSA had been proposed, Forgottenlord was on a war path.  He began a massive telegram campaign and debated heavily within the UN forum - often telegraming those he responded to inform them of his rebuttle.  While feeling he had some effect in keeping the vote decently close (from the second day of his telegram campaign, both the votes for and against held within about 3000 votes of each other), it failed to accomplish its stated goal.  However, after a comment made by Reformatia, he realized that there was another way to challenge the resolution: an appeal to the UN Leadership to reconsider the actual effect of the resolution.
+
 
+
The intial repeal, started by [[Reformatia]], was rather ineffective.  The UN General Secretary, feeling (correctly) that this was just a last minute attempt by Reformatia to not have his Biological Weapons Ban proposal deleted decided they were not going to change their ruling on that thread.  However, as the discussion progressed, Forgottenlord replaced Reformatia as the main debater against the resolution, facing off against [[Powerhungry Chipmunks]].  Before the debate had finished, [[Lanquassia]] had again brought the question to the UN General Secretary - and the debate exploded before the UN leadership could consider the arguments.  Finally, recognizing the futility of trying to get the UN leaders to consider such a long and swift debate, he brought forth a deal with the UN leadership for a final attempt to appeal the General Secretary's position.  After nearly 2 months, the final statements on the debate had been made and were submitted to the UN leadership by Forgottenlord.  The UN leadership, though, ruled against him.  Admitting defeat, Forgottenlord moved on
+
 
+
As he began making a name for himself having an opinion and speedy statement for most proposals within the UN forum, Forgottenlord also found some luck back in Aberdeen.  The Prime Minister had disappeared off the face of the planet, and the President, realizing the severity of the situation, called for the dissolution of the First Aberdeen Parliment.  Forgottenlord quickly put his name in for Prime Minister, running on his work with the first 4 laws and his high level of activity.  Despite a hard battle against the Secretary of State of the first Aberdeen Parliment, he secured the Prime Minister position after his criticism of the President's handling of the election earned him both the vote of the President and the third contender of the 3 way race.
+
 
+
However, his victory was soon to be tarnished.  One of his competitors, [[Blackrock64]] who is still regarded as the greatest Secretary of State that [[Aberdeen]] has ever had decided he could not remain an active part of the government under Forgottenlord and left the region.  This was just the first act in the second collapse of Aberdeen.  Aberdeen fell progressively from its high of nearly 75 nations to just over 30 at its darkest point.  Former Secretary of Defense, [[Disraeliland]], also left the region, while many other key members disappeared due to inactivity - including [[Dundee East]], the President of [[Aberdeen]].
+
 
+
Nearly resigning himself to being the leader of a dead region, Forgottenlord focused his activity to the UN.  He accepted an invitation to join the UN Old Guard and looked to further his reputation.  During this time, he split ways with [[Powerhungry Chipmunks]] to the point that the two now have a difficult time being civil with one another.  On the other hand, [[Love and esterel]] whom he took extensive time to encourage and edit the work of - seeing great promise in the new resolution writer.  Yet he didn't initiate any great campaigns nor write any of his own proposals.  His rate of posting decreased noticably.
+
 
+
However, in his time of focusing away from the region, a danger had arisen.  Aberdeen was being invaded.  Forgottenlord received a warning the day that the first invaders started marching in.  Wishing to try and cut them off before too many could get in, he immediately locked the region down - barring entrance.  He tried to reactivate all of the remaining members of the region from the first government with only marginal success.  Realizing he faced a significant possibility of not getting agreement from anyone before the invasion would be successful, he made a desperate plea to the President, urging him to return to Aberdeen.
+
 
+
The President complied just as Forgottenlord lost delegacy.  The invaders were forcably removed from the region.  But it was bigger than that: [[Dundee East]] wanted to rebuild the region - from the now defunct government structure all the way down to its priorities.  Forgottenlord remained Prime Minister as these changes went underway.  The cabinet structure was changed.  The regional court was overhauled.  Immigration was given its own ministry to make recruitment a higher priority.  Target numbers were set.  And with it, came new life to the region.
+
 
+
Within a handful of days, the region doubled its membership to 60.  Within a month, it doubled again.  The Regional Court was fully staffed, all ministries were in full operation, the only weak point was the already stable area of Foreign Relations.
+
 
+
Paralleling the increasing success of Aberdeen was Forgottenlord's first resolution.  [[Love and Esterel]] had approached him as much as two months prior to the Aberdeen revival about working on [[Right to Divorce]].  However, [[Love and Esterel]] was struggling to find the time to do it with various other projects underway and Forgottenlord wasn't doing much better.  However, the two had finally found a common hole in their respective schedules.  Thus, [[Right to Divorce]] was underway.  After a swift two weeks of developement, it went to vote.
+
 
+
But it was doomed right off the bat.  On the first day of voting, [[Ausserland]] brought forth a major point that Forgottenlord had misunderstood during the drafting process.  Realizing that his Resolution was hopelessly flawed, he resigned himself to the need to repeal it even before its momentum began.  His realization didn't stop it from passing, but it breathed life into those that would later repeal it.  [[Fonzoland]], who had been the first to indicate his vote for the resolution on the forums was responsible for submitting the repeal.
+
 
+
Forgottenlord had not given up hope, however.  Despite the considerable flaw, he still felt that [[Right to Divorce]] had to be replaced and after a few weeks, began drafting a replacement.  It is still being drafted.
+
 
+
[[Aberdeen]] had started encountering internal strife.  Forgottenlord had become frustrated with an attempt by a new MP of Aberdeen by the name of Bloopa to pass a law that limited the size of Aberdeen armies.  The Bill passed in a narrow vote, but this did not stop Forgottenlord from playing annoying politics with the Minister.  He fired nearly 40 million soldiers from Angel Fire and enstated a new Zerg army, the national animal of Angel Fire.  This merely infuriated the Minister, who immediately pressed charges against him in the regional court.  The court is currently in recess as the judge is busy with other things
+
 
+
And yet, on another front, Forgottenlord chose to reorganize the government.  Angel Fire and Forgottenlands UN nearly combined to the same population as the Empire itself.  Realizing this, he reoganized the three nations and their government structure.  The three nations became a unified land under the name Forgotten Territories.  Forgottenlord, as President of each of the three nations, became President of the Forgotten Territories.  His Vice-Presidents of each nation became the Prime Minister and effective leader.

There is little that has happened since this unification.

== Government Structure ==
+
 
+
=== Forgotten Territories ===
+
 
+
The Forgotten Territories is the central ruling body of the three nations formerly ruled by Forgottenlord.  The Forgotten Territories is ruled by the Forgotten Council, which is a committee of the military, civil and intelligence leaders from the three nations.  Nearly all foreign policy issues with a single nation is handled by the Forgotten Council itself - though issues such as the military remain solely to the discretion of the individual nation.
+
 
+
The President is elected by equal vote from all citizens in all three of the countries.  It is nearly impossible to unseat Forgottenlord, though, because he always gets 100% of the Angel Fire vote, anyone who dared vote against him knows he wouldn't be alive the next day.
+
 
+
=== Forgottenlands ===
+
 
+
There is a single legislative body within the Empire.  It Currently contains over 1000 members, and has been capped due to the insane increase in the size of the nation.  The current parliment is the 24th Forgottenlands Parliment.  Parliments are elected every two months, while the Prime Minister is elected every year.  If 1/3 of the population signs a petition, any issue will go to a refurendum, though no issue has succeeded at surpassing the 20% mark.
+
 
+
The Nation was divided into 8 provinces, but one Province has since broken off and become the Colony of Forgottenlands UN.  The other provinces.....I haven't named them yet.  Four of the Provinces have effectively become a single city - and each make up the 4 great cities of Forgottenlands.  The Capital, Forgotten City, is one of them, with nearly 400 million within its expanded civic borders.
+
 
+
=== Angel Fire ===
+
 
+
There is one rule, one law.  The Prime Ministership belongs to one woman until the day she dies.  He who defies her will satisfy her thirst for flesh.  She is Tristan Angel, the Angel Fire, and she is the law.  Her Capital, Port Angel, sits on Angel Bay in Aberdeen and is considered by many to be the military capital of Aberdeen, the home base of nearly half of the nation's 100 million armed personnel.
+
 
+
=== Forgottenlands UN ===
+
 
+
After the government reorganization, Forgottenlands UN was divided into 7 provinces, modeling the nation she broke away from.  Her parliament is likewise modelled and has received a similar cap, though as of yet, it has yet to pass the 750 mark.  Capital remains unnamed.

+
===== History and Character =====
+
Sister of Forgottenlord, 12 years his senior. When she was 16, she was kidnapped by a group of terrorists due to one being infatuated with her. He made her his wife after returning to his homeland. He rose through the ranks and was eventually given permission to form and head a parallel group to the one he served. He is still alive but his whereabouts are unknown.
+
 
+
Tristan, while initially fearful, slowly turned her fear into cold fury towards her husband. Eventually, this fury was channelled by her husband into some of the most deadly attacks ever made by terrorists and did not utilize explosives. With an outlet for all her rage, she slowly fell in love with her husband, who used her newfound closeness with him to create greater rage within her. She became one of the most deadly women on the planet.
+
 
+
However, not all went as could be hoped for. Eventually, their base of operations was assaulted. Both her and her husband were forced to flee (though not without creating numerous casualties to the assailing force). They were seperated and unable to locate each other.
+
 
+
With no one else to turn to, she went to her brother. By this point, he had become to the President of Forgottenlands. While he had heard of her many evils, he gave her refuge when likely no other like-minded nation would have. He hired her as an assassin - both to keep her public profile non-existant and to make use of her talents. Eventually, he founded a nation for her with which she could make the decisions and play as she so chose.
+
 
+
Her career as an assassin, however, was not over - though it had taken a turn for the worse. She misinterpreted a joke and nearly attempted to assassinate Pat MacNeil, the President of Aberdeen. On a later (real) mission, she was captured by a Blackrock assassin and was able to escape from their officials, returning to her home nation. No longer wishing his sister to remain in danger, Forgottenlord gave her to position of Vice-President, formalizing her command of Angel Fire that those in the know knew she had. This Vice-Presidency changed to Prime Ministerialship when the Forgotten Territories were reorganized
+
 
+
Brutal, psychotic, vicious beyond belief and always thirsty for blood she no longer could get in the normal course of action, she rules Angel Fire with an iron fist. Occasionally, rumors would come from the suburbs of Port Angel of 10 to 20 dead and witnesses claiming that she was spotted slaying them, but those are often quelled and never reach the ears of her media (nor, certainly, media outside her nation). The only saving grace is she deals with her Foreign politics in a manner that would at least satisfy Forgottenlord - even if it wouldn't be, necessarily, how he would handle it.
+
 
+
Her activities have been numerous since she gained her new power.  She was given permission by her brother to sit in the peace talks between [[Bloopa]] and [[Coretta]] after the Corettan Embassy Slaughter incident where she continues to play the role of annoying nuisance to the peace process.  She also authorized the formation of the Zerg forces which worsened relations between her nation and [[Bloopa]].  When Bloopa filed charges against her for this, she began a personal feud towards her fellow leader and now does everything in her power to berate and annoy the Bloopan leader - which does not make the peace process any simpiler.
+
 
+
===== Appearance =====
+
 
+
Despite her warrior nature, Tristan has never had her hair fail to reach her shoulders if she could help it.  It is nearly always waist length and takes a variety of forms depending on what style and impression she wants to give.  However, her normal form is braided down her back with the tips gelled into a thin strip that can leave marks in skin if its whipped about.  If she's in a conference, she instead chooses to wrap it in a bun, keeping the bun together with two sharp daggers.
+
 
+
Her eyes are a dead brown.  The right eye had sat only half an inch above a short, wide gash.  Her right ear lobe is missing, her left ear lobe sports a sword earing that sometimes holds blood on its tip, a present from its most recent victim (she rarely removes evidence of her victims within a 24 hours of them being her victims).  Slightly back of where the sword dangles is the upper limit of another scar - this one starting at the base of her lobe, going across the bottom of her chin and down the right side of her neck, down and right her chest and stops just below the armpit - continuing for a short ways across her arm.  The lower portion of this scar is normally hidden from view by her uniform.
+
 
+
The uniform, itself, is the only thing she has worn in public during the latter years of her work with her husband and since her retirement from being an assassin.  It was the first piece of clothing her husband had given her, and she made it the standard for the Angel Fire military.  It's ripped and shares many of her scars.  Two slashes go horizontally across the middle of her back, the right sleeve's front side had a slice right across it that went vertically half a foot.  The rest are much more minor.
+
  
===== Toys =====
+
=== The nation that was ===
  
As previously mentioned, she has a sword earing.  She also has what's know as a blood penRetracted, the tip is protected by 4 blades each extending an inch beyond the tip and 4 inches beyond their base.  Even the tip is sharp enough to pierce skin, though she had never actually used it for such a purposeHer left hip normally sports a pistol, though the model changes depending on her mood.  Her right hip normally holds either her favorite sword (Death Blade) or, more regularly, a 6-inch knife (Bloodlust).  When she goes for the kill, she prefers her prey to be closer rather than farther from her - she likes to taste the blood of her victims.
+
Forgottenlands was merely a name change to an old nation's name that has long since been forgottenExisting a mere 5 years under its current name, even the oldest members who were born and raised under the previous nation say they have "always lived in Forgottenlands"Thus, when history talks about someone who was raised in a traditional Forgottenlands family, they were truly raised in the nation that has become Forgottenlands.
  
==== Elizabeth Paul ====
+
The reason for everyone's amnesia towards the old name is unknown.  Some wonder if truly Forgottenlands was the old name, and merely Forgottenlord adopted his name as his sole name to suit it.  Others wonder whether Forgottenlord was named such in honor of Forgottenlands and merely by chance became its leader.  Others wonder if perhaps there was some terrible evil associated with the other name that no one dares discuss.  Regardless, the past beyond the 3 years is unknown, just who people knew, the lifestyles they led, and the beliefs they were given.  The greatest historians have failed time and again to discover anything about that government - or even to determine if indeed its old name was Forgottenlands
  
===== Positions =====
+
However, the society of the old was quite clear.  By the standard within the NationStates universe, their developement sat towards the latter end of the Modern age.  Their society was peaceloving, community based, accepting, and always interested in a new face.  They worked hard, but not extensively.  As a result, their economy is well developed.  Their education is excellent, their health care very good, literacy rate nearly perfect and their poor moderately few.

+
=== Aetheren ===
  
(Note, pre-arrival history shall be dealt with in the Zerg History section)
+
Enter the Forgottenlord.  Under the advisement of Scrotus and with his elite General, Sage Azuth, Forgottenlord took command of the then small Forgottenlands, placing her land under the name of Forgottenlands and bringing her into Scrotus' Kingdom of Aetheren.  Aetheren fought many wars under Scrotus' leadership, but none of them were truly notable.  Eventually, Scrotus left, frustrated by the politics.  Forgottenlord took the helm of Aetheren.
  
Daughter of Sarah Kerrigan, the Zerg Queen of Blades. After driving back those known only as the destroyers to the Xel-Naga (the creators of the Zerg), locking their only entrance into this galaxy and avenging her mother's death, Liz left the remants of the Zerg Empire. Having never wanted the power her mother craved for, she returned to her mother's homeworld with a small force of Zerg that she kept as pets. There she met the Angel Fire who's brutal nature appealed to her (having only ever known war). Her Zerg she released to the wild, feeling they belonged there and she chose to enter service in the Angel Fire military rather than become an assassin like her recruiter. Due to her experience, she quickly rose through the ranks to her current position of Lieutenant Field Marshall before being handed an assignment that played heavily to her history - the formation of a Zerg army.
+
His policies were quite different than that of Scrotus. He fought defensively - though would and could lash out whenever he needed.  He gathered together some elite Generals and leaders to the Kingdom and slowly built it a reputation.  However, he wanted it understood that a change had been made so he changed one letter in the name - Aetheron had been formed. The reasoning officially was that the basis and beliefs held by the kingdom remained the same, but his goals and tactics were different.  His hope was for peace and friendship rather than war and hatred.
  
She is a brilliant strategist - capable of leading troops both on and off the field.  She is vicious and brutal, though she holds a calm logic to those she employs it on.  If you have not earned her wrath, she is civil and can even be kind to allies.  However, she is strict and responds sharply.  She can be quick to anger when not in battle, but when she is in battle, her emotions are always under control.  She prefers to use her built-in weapons over items such as guns to do her killing.
+
However, this merely turned into an alliance war - with the Kingdom of DreamS leading an alliance against the Kingdom of Icewind Dale, Aetheron being in the former and Forgottenlord having a personal feud with the top three generals within Icewind Dale.
  
That said, it is well known that sex with this woman is certain deathHer orgasm results in an uncontrollable release of all her implants - including her claws which go right through the lungs of any man she's with.  However, she still loves sex and uses the brutal rule of the Angel Fire as a way to acquire new mates.  That said, many consider her infertile due to the fact that it is believed she has never used protection and still has yet to produce any offspringThose in the know, however, know that she has been merely doing a game of genetic manipulation within her womb - collecting the chromosomes given by the sperm that she receives and slowly combining them - creating new chromosomes that she intends to one day become the first fertilizer of an egg within her womb (though there's a possibility some eggs have already been fertilized, only to be mentally aborted so her project produces, what she feels is, the perfect offspring).
+
While it was considered a victory, it would be false to claim that DreamS had wonDreamS dismantled, Aetheron fragmented, yet Icewind Dale remainedOnly the other main partner in the DreamS alliance remained intact of the former allies (and it eventually outlasted Icewind Dale).
  
If you have incited her wrath of made a personal insult, you are also likely to die to her claws.  For the lesser insults (if they are made by men), she makes the insulter her next mate.  For the greatest ones (or the females who insulted her), however, she saves a move known as the gutterSimply, she launches her claws through the gut of her victim, right at the base of the rib cage.  Her claws extend past the backside of the ribcage and up, shredding the heart and lungs of her victim.  She then raises her victim at least half a foot off the ground (she will make sure the wound is over her head) and watches the victims eyes: waiting for all signs of life to leave them.  Like the Angel Fire, she likes the taste of the blood of her victims - but only those who have earnt her greatest wrath.
+
Forgottenlord, however, was doneUnder recommendation of his fellow Aetherite, Gauss-Jordan, Aetheron left the realm for a new one - the one known as NationStates.
  
===== Appearance =====
+
=== The NationStates realm ===
  
Standing a mere 4'11", Liz Paul is not what one would call frighteningDark skinned (she was born with pale white skin, but it has since darkened due to the Zerg implants), with hazel eyes, no noticeable scars, her black hair tied into two pigtails that rode halfway down her back (past her butt if she undid them) and normally wearing clothing that rode up on the waist on the back side, kept the top of the back open, clearly never wears a bra, and wearing a loose, knee-length skirt with slight rips in the side, many found her appearance to be more the school girl that they would love to nail but would probably be arrested for pediophilia if they tried.  Only in Angel Fire would such clothing be permitted in the military.
+
Here, Aetheron was able to hide amongst the many names and facesForgottenlands, the only member left, went and looked to work with the UN.  From Ban Slavery to Ban Single-Hulled Tankers, Forgottenlands cast its belief and vote.  However, Forgottenlord grew tired, and having moved from a realm where a name had been made for himself to one where he was a nobody, he grew bored and left Forgottenlands, leaving it in the care of Sage Azuth.
  
However, these features only make her even more dangerous, for many believe she is even more deadly than the Angel FireClaws that once permanently extended across the top of her fingers now retract and extend at will - normally hiding within her armsBeneath her shoulder blades are her wings which extend out of her back at the edge of the shoulder blades and through the open area in the back of her shirts.  While they are capable of giving her flight abilities, she more often uses them as armor - for their leathery hide can repel any non-explosive bullet, can withstand most explosions, and has nerve endings combined with being the fastest healing part of her body (fast enough that most pistols will have any marks they leave fully healed before the next bullet is in the chamber).  She also has a foot long tail - though it is more than capable of stretching to a full length of 6 feet.  Her skin can harden and thicken if she so desires - thick enough that it is as resistant to weapons fire as most Kevlar armor.  Combined, when she is in battle mode, she is one of the most fearsome sights.

Without him, Forgottenlands grew stagnantIts population ceased growing or shrinkingThe leadership was in disarray.  While the nation tried to carry on, the indications were quite clear:

+
Forgottenlands could no longer function without Forgottenlord.
  
While she occasionally will extend her claws, she is almost never seen with another object on herIn situations where she expects to be in a gun fight, however, she does wear a pistol on her hip.
+
It was, perhaps, fortunate that Forgottenlord had met up with the leader of the Grand Duchy of Itsenpotiijaa, and it reminded him of his fun while leading ForgottenlandsHe returned to his old nation, was given Presidancy of the now democracy, and began rebuilding it.
  
=== Forgottenlands ===
+
Less than a month after he returned to the throne of Forgottenlands, a woman by the name of [[Tristan Angel]] met with him, claiming to be his sister.  Those that saw her were fearful of what would happen should he accept her story.  Her eyes held a wave of hatred that anyone who passed by her could feel boiling to be released upon the world.  She was seen as the greatest danger to the future of Forgottenlands.

Or so they thought.
  
===== Positions held =====

Forgottenlord did accept her story, and had a DNA test done to prove her connection for all of Forgottenlands.  However, the population had less to fear than they realized.  There was another nation who's name now also has been forgotten.  Forgottenlord annexed it and granted it to his sister.  She named it [[Angel Fire]], the same nickname she herself held.

While many citizens within Forgottenlands felt sorry for the citizens of this new nation, it was to their benefit that such a change had happened.  Within hours of having been created, Angel Fire was contacted by the nation Dundee East, inviting the new nation to join [[Aberdeen]].  The Angel Fire forewarded this to Forgottenlord who then got both nations to head to Aberdeen.

History

The nation that was

Forgottenlands was merely a name change to an old nation's name that has long since been forgotten. Existing a mere 5 years under its current name, even the oldest members who were born and raised under the previous nation say they have "always lived in Forgottenlands". Thus, when history talks about someone who was raised in a traditional Forgottenlands family, they were truly raised in the nation that has become Forgottenlands.

The reason for everyone's amnesia towards the old name is unknown. Some wonder if truly Forgottenlands was the old name, and merely Forgottenlord adopted his name as his sole name to suit it. Others wonder whether Forgottenlord was named such in honor of Forgottenlands and merely by chance became its leader. Others wonder if perhaps there was some terrible evil associated with the other name that no one dares discuss. Regardless, the past beyond the 3 years is unknown, just who people knew, the lifestyles they led, and the beliefs they were given. The greatest historians have failed time and again to discover anything about that government - or even to determine if indeed its old name was Forgottenlands

However, the society of the old was quite clear. By the standard within the NationStates universe, their developement sat towards the latter end of the Modern age. Their society was peaceloving, community based, accepting, and always interested in a new face. They worked hard, but not extensively. As a result, their economy is well developed. Their education is excellent, their health care very good, literacy rate nearly perfect and their poor moderately few.

Aetheren

Enter the Forgottenlord. Under the advisement of Scrotus and with his elite General, Sage Azuth, Forgottenlord took command of the then small Forgottenlands, placing her land under the name of Forgottenlands and bringing her into Scrotus' Kingdom of Aetheren. Aetheren fought many wars under Scrotus' leadership, but none of them were truly notable. Eventually, Scrotus left, frustrated by the politics. Forgottenlord took the helm of Aetheren.

His policies were quite different than that of Scrotus. He fought defensively - though would and could lash out whenever he needed. He gathered together some elite Generals and leaders to the Kingdom and slowly built it a reputation. However, he wanted it understood that a change had been made so he changed one letter in the name - Aetheron had been formed. The reasoning officially was that the basis and beliefs held by the kingdom remained the same, but his goals and tactics were different. His hope was for peace and friendship rather than war and hatred.

However, this merely turned into an alliance war - with the Kingdom of DreamS leading an alliance against the Kingdom of Icewind Dale, Aetheron being in the former and Forgottenlord having a personal feud with the top three generals within Icewind Dale.

While it was considered a victory, it would be false to claim that DreamS had won. DreamS dismantled, Aetheron fragmented, yet Icewind Dale remained. Only the other main partner in the DreamS alliance remained intact of the former allies (and it eventually outlasted Icewind Dale).

Forgottenlord, however, was done. Under recommendation of his fellow Aetherite, Gauss-Jordan, Aetheron left the realm for a new one - the one known as NationStates.

The NationStates realm

Here, Aetheron was able to hide amongst the many names and faces. Forgottenlands, the only member left, went and looked to work with the UN. From Ban Slavery to Ban Single-Hulled Tankers, Forgottenlands cast its belief and vote. However, Forgottenlord grew tired, and having moved from a realm where a name had been made for himself to one where he was a nobody, he grew bored and left Forgottenlands, leaving it in the care of Sage Azuth.

Without him, Forgottenlands grew stagnant. Its population ceased growing or shrinking. The leadership was in disarray. While the nation tried to carry on, the indications were quite clear:

Forgottenlands could no longer function without Forgottenlord.

It was, perhaps, fortunate that Forgottenlord had met up with the leader of the Grand Duchy of Itsenpotiijaa, and it reminded him of his fun while leading Forgottenlands. He returned to his old nation, was given Presidancy of the now democracy, and began rebuilding it.

Less than a month after he returned to the throne of Forgottenlands, a woman by the name of Tristan Angel met with him, claiming to be his sister. Those that saw her were fearful of what would happen should he accept her story. Her eyes held a wave of hatred that anyone who passed by her could feel boiling to be released upon the world. She was seen as the greatest danger to the future of Forgottenlands.

Or so they thought.

Forgottenlord did accept her story, and had a DNA test done to prove her connection for all of Forgottenlands. However, the population had less to fear than they realized. There was another nation who's name now also has been forgotten. Forgottenlord annexed it and granted it to his sister. She named it Angel Fire, the same nickname she herself held.

While many citizens within Forgottenlands felt sorry for the citizens of this new nation, it was to their benefit that such a change had happened. Within hours of having been created, Angel Fire was contacted by the nation Dundee East, inviting the new nation to join Aberdeen. The Angel Fire forewarded this to Forgottenlord who then got both nations to head to Aberdeen.

Aberdeen

Aberdeen was a small, quickly growing and new region within the realm. Forgottenlands found itself as by far the largest nation within Aberdeen. At the time, they were just finalizing the constitution, and the Prime Minister position was coming up for grabs. Forgottenlord pushed for an optionality clause regarding free trade within the constitution but otherwise remained fairly quiet within the region, choosing not to volunteer for a Cabinet position when The European Nation was elected Prime Minister.
