With build competitions and a point system, they called on other builders to create beautiful buildings on the server, from lowly houses to large government buildings, rail stations, libraries and more. Eleven nations on the server, most notably Gabon, Varkonia and the Commonwealth contained numerous builds which contributed to the Order's mission. (Full article...)
