History
Main article: History of the Meritocracy
The Meritocratic Isles, founded by Senator Tom from Thomasia, are one of the first regions in the NationStates. Lord Tom has intended them to be a home for capitalist nations who tended to have a conservative or libertarian bent. They have grown rapidly and became the first region in NationStates to develop a regional government.
When the Isles fell victim to the evil tyranny of United Nations, the capital was moved to the New Meritocracy. Later, however, the Senators have liberated and reannexed the Isles.
During later developments, The New Meritocracy took control of the region, leaving it to die.
While The New Meritocracy became a tyrannical reign of bureaucrats, nations began to question their right to control the Meritocratic Isles, and whether the Senate had lost its purpose.
During a brief, but destructive internal conflict many Senators resigned their places in the Meritocratic Senate, and removed themselves to the Meritocratic Isles, where they declared their independence from the tyranny of the Meritocratic Senate. The Meritocratic Confederacy lasted a few weeks and had a very active roleplay community before succumbing to inactivity.
The region under Jasque was refounded and under Jasque's leadership the region has been going through massive changes. Once a frail and dying region, now it is 54 nations strong. The changes are more directed to the management of the region and such. A constitution is soon to be voted on which will finally give structure to this region filled with history.
In the 19th of May the region was invaded by the Texas Militia.
