Mount September was founded as a spiritual successor to the declining Mount Augusta. It seeks to preserve the openness and culture of Mount Augusta albeit as a fresh nation and not an identical copy. Mount September occupies the northern half of an island formerly settled by the Maltovian territory of Compton.
Geography
Mount September borders Mount Augusta in the northeast. To the south, across the east-west road at Y: 2500, lies the abandoned territory of the Jeffersonian Nation of Eclipse. Mount September maintains underground rail connections to MtA, Westminster, Varkonia, Gabon, and more.
Early history
By August 2020 activity in Mount Augusta was at an all time low. The city state had officially moved to servers to CivRealms causing its Civclassic counterpart to be without a subreddit, constitution and eventually, discord server. Squareblob and Godomasta intended to revive CivClassics' MtA by slowly derelicting property, starting by HPOOM blvd. However, the effort it would have taken to acidblock and rebuild some of the infrastructure was deemed too high, and the prospect of a fresh start was too attractive. Construction in Mount September began on August 11th 2020. By September 2020 the basic forms of the downtown canal, roads and voter tree had been constructed.
The other debate was the legal one: the MtA constitution was too complex and stale, so a change was seen as necessary; there was some doubt as to whether it would be better to write a new constitution from scratch, or condense MtA's into a more friendly format. The r/MountSeptember subreddit was banned on September 3rd 2020, and the former was deemed as a better alternative. The original constitution was drafted by AllenY, which after a brief revision period was ratified on September 30th 2020.

Flag
The MtS constitution describes its flag as: "a rectangular field, divided by a straight line from the bottom left corner to the upper right corner, the upper division being red and the lower division being blue". The color scheme is borrowed from Augusta's, and the diagonal division reminisces of Compton's flag (which uses black and green instead).
Bingus
Bingus is a meme of a cat, the meme was first mentioned by topher3001 on the (Not) Civ Diplomacy discord channel[2] and was quickly associated with the Big Chungus meme, presumably due to their similarities. It became a cultural phenomenom in Mount September early November 2020, thanks to the expression "Woah, is that a bingus in your pocket" coined by Specificlanguage[3]
