History
The Classical Era
Random Kingdom was founded in October 2004 by British settlers. RK was founded with a parliament mimicking Westminster, but this quickly changed into a unique government form. The Random Kingdom became the aggressor of debates and even into war.
Notable Features of the Classical Era
- The government changed frequently during the Classical Era, from one end of democracy into the other, and is the only era of RK history that actually had frequent elections.
- The Uncommon Gecko was selected as Random Kingdom's national animal.
The War on USN
Known OOCly as a rather n00bish, sloppy war on RK's part, the USN war made and broke alliances everywhere. Both sides pulled out of peace talks, and if it were not for the dissolvement of the USN, possibly due to another war later in time, RK would still technically be at war.
The Sophisticated Era
Peace prospered and so did Random Kingdom, turning itself around from a land of poverty into a land of prosperity. And so it continued, until the new form of government, the Collective of State Unions, was derailed by right-wing activists, propelling the nation into civil war.
Notable Features of the Sophisticated Era
- This era led Random Kingdom into its first Civil War, and marked the end of Random Kingdom's "everyone welcome" approach as all rightists were exiled after the Civil War.
- Geckoids were created in the Sophisticated Era.
- Confusion City was nuked and New Hope became the capital, for many years to come.
- The Unity Festival was held in Random Kingdom to mark harmony and prosperity in RK and its allies.
The Random Kingdom Civil War
The attack on the CSU propelled RK into a long civil war which saw the previous government killed off and the nation divide into fragments. To make things worse, a mafia family came in and threatened the sovereignty of the nation when peace resumed.
The Modern Era
After the Civil War, all known rightists were shipped out of the nation and for decades RK was peaceful. A new government system pioneered, the Core, which finally brought democracy down to the laity, and until Random Kingdom heard of atrocities being carried out by the distant empire of Farmina. RK prepared for war...
Notable Features of the Modern Era
- Random Kingdom became a PostModern Tech nation in the Modern Era.
- The Modern Era is RK's longest era of peace, stretching between tech levels.
- It was Random Kingdom's last era of independance.
The War on Farmina
Random Kingdom declared war on the Holy Empire of Farmina on grounds of mass genocide and misuse of weapons of mass destruction. It was promptly rained down on by Farmina and its close ally Wolfish, and was crippled due to regular infrastructure sabotage. The Core ran out of power, and the nation plunged into anarchy. Farmina took over control of the nation, installing a new government. Meanwhile, many RK citizens took their own lives or went underground, razing the nation to the ground as they went. This is known as the Last Stand of Random Kingdom.
