According to legend, Din created the physical geography of the realm, Farore created the flora and fauna, and Nayru gave the laws of physics to the realm. Once the goddesses had completed their tasks, they departed for the heavens, and left behind them three golden triangles. Into these, they gave their power to govern all things; this became known as the [[Wikipedia:Triforce|Triforce]].

The region was founded ([[OOC]]ly) sometime in early 2004 by a small group of active [[Wikipedia:Legend of Zelda|Zelda]] fans. In the early days, the leaders of the region were looking to build a relationship with the now-defunct region of Termina. Over time, the region grew, and by about December 2004, the region had 30 nations. At the end of March, 2005, a regional map and forum were established.

====2004====
 +
The region was founded sometime in early 2004 (date not known) by Kholint, and a small group of active [[Wikipedia:Legend of Zelda|Zelda]] fans also came along to join. During this period, Hyrule was seeking to establish relations with the now-defunct region of Termina.
  
Starting in April 2005, Hyrule has started a regional recruitment drive to get more nations to come to the region. This has worked; at the beginning of April, there were only 19 nations. As of June 12, 2005, there are 107 nations.
+
Sometime during Kholint's delegacy, an invader group tried to take over, but due to the griefing of the telegram box, were deleted. Kholint, and many other nations, dissappeared soon after, and on 30 June, 2004, Tri-Hylians became the regional delegate.
  
On April 22, 2005, Hyrule was invaded by nations of the region Cotham and Cakeland. At around 4:00 AM EST the following day, the leader, Marionettles, usurped the delegate posistion, and ejected the former delegate and other nations. This inspired great amounts of anti-foriegn sentiments within the Hyrule community, although the invaders did say they would leave April 27th.  
+
From then on, Hyrule remained a peaceful region, with the occasional nation coming in. During this year, the largest amount of nations at one time was 35. Hyrule remained peaceful for the remainder of the year.
  
With the help of regional counter-invasion groups, the forces of Marionettles were expelled from Hyrule on April 24, and the old regime was restored. The posistion of delegate was transfered to the nation elected on the off-site forum, [[Ness Snorlaxia]]. Throughout the months of May and June, a cabinet was formed.

=====The First Six Months=====
 +
During the first three months of 2005, Hyrule still maintained the peace it did during 2004. Forums and a map were created during the end of March 2005, however they weren't used much in the beginning. Due to mass die-offs, however, the region mostly declined in population until about April 9th.
  
On May 26th, the founder of the region was revived. The following day, he returned to Hyrule, much to the happiness of other natives.
+
That date is when the recruitment drive was started. Throughout April and May, over 60 nations came to Hyrule since the start of recruitment.
  
===United Nations Delegate===
+
On April 14th, Tri-Hylians's reign as delegate ended, being delegate for 288 days. On that day, The Spotteddick, a native who helped to turn our region around, became delegate, although he immediately resigned. Tri-Hylians became delegate for a brief period of time, until April 22.
The first delegate of Hyrule was that of the founder, Kholint. Although the beginning of his delegacy is not known, it ended on 30 June, 2004. Tri-Hylians took power soon after, becoming delegate on 30 June. His delegacy lasted for 288 days, until 14 April, 2005, the longest in Hyrule history.
+
  
On that day, The Spotteddick, a native of the region, recieved more endorsements than Tri-Hylians, therefore becoming delegate. However, he did not want the posistion, so Ness Snorlaxia removed an endorsement from the nation and added it to Tri-Hylians's. Once again, he became delegate, lasting a brief period of time until 23 April, 2005.
+
During this time is also when our first embassy, with the [[Allied Union of Nations]] was established, after the Snowflake registered at our forums to research the region and to establish contact.
  
[[Marionettles]], an invader delegate, took power on that day, and ejected many nations. On the off-site forum, Ness Snorlaxia was elected to be delegate once the natives could get back to Hyrule.
+
On April 22, 2005, Hyrule was invaded by nations of the now-defunct region Cotham and Cakeland. At around 4:00 AM EST the following day, the leader, Marionettles, usurped the delegate posistion, and ejected the former delegate and other nations. This inspired great amounts of anti-foriegn sentiments within the Hyrule community, although the invaders did say they would leave April 27th.  
  
With help from the RRA and other defender organizations, the region was liberated and Toodeloo, a defender, became delegate for one day. This posistion was then transfered to Ness Snorlaxia on 25 April, 2005, who has ruled since that day.
+
With the help of regional counter-invasion groups, the forces of Marionettles were expelled from Hyrule on April 24, and a defender delegate (Toodeloo) became the regional delegate for one day. With the help of natives to ensure a smooth transistion back to normalcy, the defenders along with natives endorsed [[Ness Snorlaxia]], the delegate chosen on an off-site poll.

After the invasion, the regional recruitment drive was re-started. Early May was also when we started voting on regional symbols and establishing our first government. Embassies with [[Q102]] and [[Aberdeen]] were also established.

History

The Creation

The region of Hyrule was formed by the three godesses Din, Nayru, and Farore. It is widely believed that these three goddeses were created themselves by an ultimate being known only as the Supreme Creator.

According to legend, Din created the physical geography of the realm, Farore created the flora and fauna, and Nayru gave the laws of physics to the realm. Once the goddesses had completed their tasks, they departed for the heavens, and left behind them three golden triangles. Into these, they gave their power to govern all things; this became known as the Triforce.

2004

The region was founded sometime in early 2004 (date not known) by Kholint, and a small group of active Zelda fans also came along to join. During this period, Hyrule was seeking to establish relations with the now-defunct region of Termina.

Sometime during Kholint's delegacy, an invader group tried to take over, but due to the griefing of the telegram box, were deleted. Kholint, and many other nations, dissappeared soon after, and on 30 June, 2004, Tri-Hylians became the regional delegate.

From then on, Hyrule remained a peaceful region, with the occasional nation coming in. During this year, the largest amount of nations at one time was 35. Hyrule remained peaceful for the remainder of the year.

2005

The First Six Months

During the first three months of 2005, Hyrule still maintained the peace it did during 2004. Forums and a map were created during the end of March 2005, however they weren't used much in the beginning. Due to mass die-offs, however, the region mostly declined in population until about April 9th.

That date is when the recruitment drive was started. Throughout April and May, over 60 nations came to Hyrule since the start of recruitment.

On April 14th, Tri-Hylians's reign as delegate ended, being delegate for 288 days. On that day, The Spotteddick, a native who helped to turn our region around, became delegate, although he immediately resigned. Tri-Hylians became delegate for a brief period of time, until April 22.

During this time is also when our first embassy, with the Allied Union of Nations was established, after the Snowflake registered at our forums to research the region and to establish contact.

On April 22, 2005, Hyrule was invaded by nations of the now-defunct region Cotham and Cakeland. At around 4:00 AM EST the following day, the leader, Marionettles, usurped the delegate posistion, and ejected the former delegate and other nations. This inspired great amounts of anti-foriegn sentiments within the Hyrule community, although the invaders did say they would leave April 27th.

With the help of regional counter-invasion groups, the forces of Marionettles were expelled from Hyrule on April 24, and a defender delegate (Toodeloo) became the regional delegate for one day. With the help of natives to ensure a smooth transistion back to normalcy, the defenders along with natives endorsed Ness Snorlaxia, the delegate chosen on an off-site poll.

After the invasion, the regional recruitment drive was re-started. Early May was also when we started voting on regional symbols and establishing our first government. Embassies with Q102 and Aberdeen were also established.

The founder, Kholint, was revived during late May 2005, much to the happiness of others, and is one of the monumental events of Hyrule. Although still remaining fairly inactive, many people were glad to have him back.

The Second Half

June was basically a "slump" month for Hyrule, as we entered a recession during the beginning and middle of the month. June was also a month for change, as the basis for the law of the region was established. That month was also when Hyrule became allied with Aberdeen and established foreign relations with Futaba Aoi.

By the end of the month, the regional recruitment drive was put into full force, and the massive amounts of recruiting boosted the region's population over 100 for the first time - another monumental event.

Foreign Affairs

Ever since May of 2005, one of the region's priorities is establishing foreign contact. As of 11 June, 2005, Hyrule has embassies in the following regions:
