Rodentia's lake was discovered by [[Basilissa]] on June 19th, 2020, where they dug a hole into a hill and set their spawn. The following day, Basilissa gathered friends at the site and established the town of Rodentia. Early development was quick, with the Rodents living communally out of a single, small building that housed their storage, production, and living quarters. Several pits were dug around the town; livestock was acquired, and a small farm around the lake was sown.

On June 26th, [[NovaCeasar]], the Princeps of the [[SPQR]], happened upon Rodentia while scouting out the borders [[Vasticus]], which was undergoing negotiations to enter the SPQR as a province. She was surprised to see Rodentia there, as the SPQR sought to create farms in Vasticus' savannah, which Rodentia was almost entirely within. NovaCeasar offered the Rodents the chance to join the SPQR as a province separate from Vasticus. The Rodents agreed to enter negotiations, but the SPQR's transition from a Principate to a Republic stalled any progress, as their July Constitutional Convention was taking up the bulk of their focus. According to NovaCeasar on July 11th, 2020:<blockquote>''We want to have a stable form of government in place before negotiations can proceed, primarily due to fears a Convention may result in a Constitutional framework that could invalidate any treaty signed with Rodentia.''</blockquote>

Early on July 9th, a player with the username OliveTheCat—not[[OliveTheCat]] – not to be confused with OlliveTehCat—murdered[[OlliveTehCat]] – murdered [[Beni_Shapiro]], a prominent member of Vasticus. OliveTheCat was pearled, and it was revealed that he was a friend of some of the Rodents from another Minecraft server; it was apparently a prank to cause his friends grief after he overheard them talking about [[CivRealms 2.0]] in a private Discord. His friends vouched for him and payed his reparations, whereupon he was freed and told that he was banned from [[Alexandria]] and the SPQR.

Shortly afterwards, OlliveTehCat and [[FlipsTheSlayer1]] abruptly informed the other Rodents that they would be seceding as [[Arcadia]], claiming a tower that they had built within [[Erimos]] using Rodentian resources. Furthermore, they informed the other Rodents that Arcadia had been admitted as a province of the SPQR in the course of just a few hours. According to them, they had claimed to NovaCeasar that OliveTheCat was actually a Rodent, not a friend who had never played CivRealms before; in exchange for this information, the two of them alleged that NovaCeasar expedited their admission to the SPQR and assured protection of their building in Erimos.

Rodentia layslaid claim to roughly 33,500 m² in the savannah on the southern coast of the continent. The settlement iswas centered around a small lake, around which crops grow well.

The population of Rodentia iswas eight, as of July 13th, 2020. Its population is a mix

While Rodentia doesdid not have a state religion, most of its population followsfollowed the local pantheon of [[Rodentianity]]. Rodentianity lacks a central doctrine or church; instead, its denominations are bound by shared holy texts and myths, and followers generally subscribe to teachings from a smattering of schools. Most Rodents seem to followfollowed the Giant Rat, who makes all of the rules, but the figures of the Squirrel and the Opossum—despiteOpossum – despite the latter not being a rodent—arerodent – were also recognized. Additionally, Remy the Rat figures prominently in one messianic sect of Rodentianity.
