History

In 1264 the ruling monarch over the land currently know as Dalriada and Wessex died unexpectantly. The land was divided equally between his twin sons, Timecios and Theodoro. The sons warred bitterly, both believing he had a divine right to the entire estate. The bitter conflict lasted no more than a decade when both nations, exhausted from years of war agreed to a cease fire. The two nations co-existed peacefully. San Theodoro was colonised by anglo-saxon settlers in the late 1700's and re-named Wessex. The two states united two hundred and fifty years later, forming the United Kingdom of San Timetheos, a further state, Caledonia, was added after a bloody revolution there. In 1975 King Timecios IVX died leaving no heir. The Democratic States of San Timetheos was born.

San Timetheos rose to become the UN Delegate of Titan AE in May 2005 and held the position until forming Llamedos in the July. After the founder of Titan AE ceased to exist, San Timetheos returned to the region in the late August for a short time to help with the rebuilding of the region and never left. He became Delegate again in the late October and is credited with merging Titan AE with Government.
