The Glorious History of an eRepublik: Part I

Day 1,630, 18:22 • Published in USA USA • by Cromstar

Long ago, before the start of time, there was the Admin.



Admin, in its great wisdom, made the world
And time began with the making of the world.



To populate the new world it had created,
Admin brought the First Men into the world.
In those days long ago,
When the First Men walked the Earth
Admin was a kind and clever god.
If the First Men did not love Admin,
They respected it.



The First Men then explored their new world,
Brought to them by Admin,
And learned its many secrets.
Admin, to appease the First Men
To keep them happy,
Shaped and reshaped the world.



Thus did the First Men build upon the Earth.
And, in their shaping and reshaping the world,
Admin saw the First Men bloom and multiply
Filling the Earth from sea to sea with their kind
And their knowledge of the Admin’s secrets.



The First Men built their cities and their nations



They fought their wars and made their peace



They discovered their friends



They feared their enemies



And they saw the world was good.
But too soon, the First Men had filled the world.
Admin could no longer reshape the world
And the world could no longer hold all its people.
Admin looked upon its world with sadness
Knowing it could not last.



And so, Admin created a new world,
Which was like and unlike the first world.

The First Men gazed upon this new world
Some of the First Men did not care for the new world
And they departed and went to search for different shores
In the Great Beyond.



Some of the First Men stayed with the Admin
To rebuild in this, their new world.
But no longer were the First Men alone,
For the Second Men were born alongside the new world.
The First Men stood as Giants, nearly god-like
In the eyes of the Second Men.



Gladly did the First Men teach their secrets to these babies,
And together, the First Men and Second Men explored the world.
The newer race of men, led by Giants
Set forth to conquer the Earth.



Thus were great armies born, and intense wars raged across the lands.
The Giants were ever fewer in numbers
But stronger than any Second Man.
The Second Men were younger and weaker
But they multiplied and covered the Earth in their numbers.
With numbers, came power.
With power, came ambition.
Grand alliances were formed, designed to carry war
To even the farthest corners of the globe.



Empires ruling entire continents clashed,
And the very bones of the world were shaken.
The Powers of PEACE and ATLANTIS carved the world between them
And, always opposed, fought to the edges of the globe.
But the great Empires persisted, nations vast and powerful fruited
And schemes were hatched.
Soon, those schemes would change the face of the Earth
And alter history forever.
