The Bruce first heard about this game from some people who were on a gaming site, the Townhall Forum, who founded the Gerbia region (still stubbornly perpetuated today by two of the region’s original players). The players in the D&D campaign The Bruce was in founded Wysteria but it quickly took on a life of its own. After a few nations wandered in here on their own, played by people unknown to the original Wysterians in real life, The Bruce decided to do a bit of recruiting in the Pacific. At the time, having 20 nations in your region made you one of the bigger ones around in the Nation States world. Back then Wysteria didn’t have any offsite resources and nobody had any animated flags.
In this early time of Nation States, the only feeder region was the Pacific. There was no Lazarus, no Rejected Realms, no Regional Controls, no Founders, and only a handful of different daily issues to amuse us with. You didn’t even have the option of colour for your World Factbook Entry for your region. The Nation States Forum was slow and clunky. It took forever to load anything and much patience to use. The UN was unmanageable at best, with too high a percentage of UN delegates needed to approve a Proposal into Resolution form. That and any UN member could submit as many Proposals as they wanted to. There were usually 120 pages of Proposals at any given time for a Delegate to look through and most didn’t. It was a tough time for The Bruce as Wysteria’s Delegate.
