The nation of Questers has a long and vast history, dating back almost eight hundred years. The Kingdom of Questers was founded in the year 1206, by King John London. He founded his city, now known as London, the capital of Questers. Research has gathered that the city was built on a hill next to the river Thames (which flows into the Great Divide), and on that hill today is the Naval Headquarters of the entire Questarian Royal Navy. Almost thirty years later, King Johns son moved east with a group of his most dedicated warriors and founded the city of Liverpool. Historians are unsure what happened afterwards, but an age of expansion began as settlers moved around the land to colonise it. By 1300 the cities of Manchester, Newcastle, York, Whitby, Scarborough, and Bristol were founded. The population of the Kingdom was little over a million. A succession of wars between the cities of York and Newcastle followed, as both cities announced themselves independent and ruling over the other. These wars today are known as the Wars of
