Astonian History
This page covers the history of various ethnically Astonian nations and their related context, across three different servers.
CivEx: First Light
Respubliko of Arlington
Main article: Republic of Arlington
SinjoroJoCrafter logged into CivEx in December 2018 ~ January 2019. He stayed in the nation of Astoria for a few days before moving on to the jungle/taiga region known as the Gelie.
He made his way to a river mouth and set about constructing a small town on the riverbank, with mossy cobblestone walls and relatively rudimentary buildings. He originally wanted to name this nation Astonia like his later creations but decided against the name due to its similarity to Astoria. Therefore he decided to name it Arlington after his hometown, and made claims[1]. Unbenownst to him, another person had the same idea, V-NAF_Aardist, who founded and claimed the town of "New Fiume"[2]. Eventually after negotiations the proto-town of New Fiume joined the Respubliko of Arlington[3].

1 cobblestone structure (actual assailant unknown)[4] | a stack of wheat, more or less[4] |
Someone near the northern borders of Arlington griefed a cobblestone building, one that was originally part of the pre-town of New Fiume. Given its proximity to Arlington's border with Columbia, SinjoroJoCrafter and V-NAF_Aardist assumed that the Columbians must have been responsible. After reaching out to Columbian PM Hamboy_jr and Emperor Kdeeks and getting no response from either, Arlington declared war.[4] After Arlington took no more actions than stealing some wheat[4] and Hamboy_jr contacted Arlington frantically, Arlington rescinded its declaration around 20 minutes later.[5] It was still unknown who had griefed the actual structure.
Arlingtonian Religious Life in the Period
The Arlingtonians of this period followed the Holy Tree religion, a religion that worshipped a massive tree situated halfway between Astoria and Arlington. They additionally supported the Church of the Holy Tree when the tree was griefed by SwiftFizz, Saren_Solaris, NeoTide, and Reyme_Vol, members of Bastion.[6]
Frankonian Sack of Arlington
The emperor of Frankonia, later Brittania, Jshatney, contacted SinjoroJoCrafter to notify him one of his citizens, Gabrielgabriel1, had allegedly stolen a horse from Frankonia. After questioning it was determined internally no one had stolen any horses from Frankonia, and Jo sent a message back to that effect.
Unfortunately, Jshatney was unwilling to hear this answer, and threatened invasion if the Arlingtonians did not return his horse. However, having stolen no horse and therefore having no horse to return, they were unable to comply with his demand. Jshatney therefore invaded Arlington, sacking the city.
