The Spectrum was founded shortly after 17:00 on May 12th 2006. Its original purpose was to showcase the difference, or spectrum, between members I Know Better Than You and Calumnius. However, its purpose has since expanded. The Spectrum initially experienced fast growth before slowing down for a period of time. Recently however, growth has increased, although now it is showing signs of slowing down once again. The Spectrum's politics are generally anarchistic although a defacto democracy exists surrounding the UN delegate. There are few laws - although some members are trying to change that. The Spectrum has its own regional anthem, entitled 'Panic in The Spectrum', a play on the song 'Panic' by The Smiths, arranged and put forward by Sabrateur.

Spectrum Security Council
The Spectrum Security Council (or SSC) is a council established to maintain security in the region. Its current members are:
The Council is chaired by I Know Better Than You, Spectrum founder. The chair has no vote in proceedings.
Alliances
The Good Guys
The Good Guys is an alliance formed in The Spectrum created for the purpose of the invasion of Ediroth and played an important role in dividing the lands of THA FORST. The Good Guys had a designated meeting tower on the The Sparkly Island of Bunnies. Construction began on 13th March, 2007.
The Good Guys: The Movie is currently being made, scheduled for release in May 2007.
S.A.T.O
S.A.T.O, Spectral Alliance Treaty Organisation, is an alliance formed to promote free trade within the Spectrum and to create a collective defence policy, where if one SATO nation is attacked, all SATO nations must defend the attacked nation. It was born into immediate controversy with several members of The Good Guys alliance seemingly upset by what they percieved as "Good Guy bashing".
Wars
Summits
Laws
Spectrum Security Act 2006
Sometimes also known as the Spectrum Privacy Act. The act was authored by many people in the Spectrum's early years but was recodified by Calumnius. The act requires nations to declare their identity to the Spectrum founder or delegate to ensure Spectrum security. It also allows nation to retain a degree of anonymity. This second aspect of the act has caused much controversy especially amongst third generation Spectrites. Founder and delegate disagreements have also occured when one knows an identity and the other does not. This may mean a new amendment to allow for both the delegate and founder to know is required.
Representative Democracy Act 2007
Written by Calumnius, this act aims to pave the way for more democracy within The Spectrum. Originally the act never gained majority and could not be passed. The act was duly revised, and it is now in place, stating that nations must name another nation who will vote for them if they are unavailable during a vote to pass a resolution. This information is to be kept in a list. A website has been established to record representative selections.
Representative Selection Site
Single Nation Act 2007
Written by Sabrateur, this act states that each player with a nation in The Spectrum must only have one nation within The Spectrum. Any that have multiple will be forced to either delete them or remove them from The Spectrum. This act does not affect a nation player's right to anonymity.
