History

Preceding the Federation of Harlon

The first discussions of the establishment of a non-staff position or positions governing the server first started in early 2020 by staff members, with it eventually being decided to proceed with it after the milestone of 100 players was achieved. This coincided with the eventual creation of the House of Assembly in the First Election of Harlon, leading to Kangaroo567 becoming the First Prime Minister of Harlon in all of its history.
