=== Varathian
Alexandria was originally settled by members of the [[Varathia|Varathian]] [[Brewer's Guild]]. The Brewer's Guild was an organization, based in northern [[Olendor]], that served both as a guild for brewing alcohol, and as a sort of political party. It was founded by [[TTastic]] and had [[Wshankspear]], [[Albyrt]] and [[Fitian]] as members.
The Brewer's Guild was involved in multiple clashes with Emperor Aresot during the period leading up to the founding, and independence, of Alexandria. At one point, the members of the Brewer's Guild believed [[Trinacria]] was about to invade Varathia, and decided to pearl [[Antreus]], who was the leader of Trinacria. After the pearling of Antreus, tensions started rising between the Brewer's Guild, climaxing in Aresot being forced at pearlpoint to establish the Varathian Senate, and make Albyrt, TTastic and Wshankspear senators.<ref>jessthefish: Rise of a City, Page 5-7</ref><ref name=":1">[[:File:Alexandria Independence Crash Course Unabridged.png|Albyrt: Crash Course on the Fall of Varathia, Unabridged]]</ref> Shortly thereafter, an agreement was signed, releasing Antreus and bansihing him from Varathia.<ref>Aresot: Agreement, page 1</ref><ref name=":1" />
After the establishment of the Varathian Senate, tensions between the Brewer's Guild and Aresot were slowly falling again. This changed when Aresot decided to delete 2/3rds of the Varathian Discord. This resulted in another wave of discontent in Varathia and a new Varathian constitution was proposed.<ref>jessthefish: Rise of a City, page 8</ref><ref name=":1" />
=== Founding ===

On October 30th, 2019, [[TTastic]], growing tired of Varathian politics, decided to venture east and found a new city. When he reached the eastern shores, he found a bunch of abandoned stone houses, which he used as a tempoary base of operations.<ref name=":0" />
Having set up a base of operations, TTastic started looking for an [[Aqua Nether|aqua nether]] portal in the area. On November 1st, 2019, TTastic found a portal a bit to the north of where he had founded the city. He decided to move the city to the location of the new portal, and got help setting up from [[Albyrt]]. Shortly thereafter, [[Jaydon_]] came and helped build the city. TTastic, Albyrt and Jaydon_ formed the City Council, which would serve as the government of the city.

=== Independence from Varathia ===
During its early days, Alexandria was still a part of the Varathian Empire. Despite this, tensions between the citizens of Alexandria and Emperor Aresot were still high. Alexandria's population was growing fast due to its focus on recruitment, and the question of Alexandrias status within the empire was getting more and more pressing. The A Opposition Party was founded by [[Alycia]] with the goal of increasing autonomy of the Varathian cities.<ref>LideoAmake: AOP Campaign, page 1-5</ref> This increasing desire for an independent Alexandria came to a head on December 2nd, 2019, when Alexandria declared its independence from Varathia.<ref>[[:File:Alexandrian Independence.png|TTastic: Alexandrian Declaration of Independence]]</ref><ref name=":1" /><ref>jessthefish: Rise of a City, page 11</ref> Due to Alexandrias size in relation to the rest of the Varathian Empire, the declaration of independence was not met with any military resistance from Varathia.
