Originally the citizenry was small-scale, with most notable citizens being Jamietech as the Queen, BritishWanderer as the Queen's Chancellor and Tvman999 as the initial explorer of the lands that would become Gabon. Soon after the founding of the state however, the prospect of grand new lands, the potential for wealth and influence in an upcoming nation state attracted citizens from across the server, most notably of these was [[House of Gobbonia|Gobblin]], who travelled from MTA to assist in the digging of the quarry and was crucial in planning the initial constructions of Salisbury. ComradeNick from the HJE was also a noteworthy figure who visited Salisbury in its early days and gifted the government diamond tools which greatly aided in the excavation of the great hole and in bringing Salisbury off the ground.

One of the earliest structures to be built was the factory building, with the first factory, a compactor which was donated by [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]], installed by Mayor Ahrimanne in particular. Following this, Salisbury's train station was slowly dug underground around 20 metres from the quarry itself with the first completed rails to Bloom and Varkonia within this time period. This underground rail construction was overseen by Chancellor BritishWanderer who is also credited with the construction of the original Bakery, Storehouse and Mckinley gardens which were the projects built around the quarry and were the start of what we now know as the Capital of Salisbury. The Bakery built during this time is the oldest building within Gabon.
As Queen Jamietech enriched the lives of her and the royal family, the privy council ''{ BritishWanderer, Gobblin & Tvman999 }'' was appointed by Jamietech to better the life of much of the citizenry. The council followed through excellently with the construction and renovation of the Grand Station and Royal Factory. Positioned on the wide Balmoral avenue and Worchester road respectively, these buildings provided ambitious entrepreneurs the foundations needed to improve the quality and quantity of their goods while providing a transport network from which to import and export to the international stage. Rail connections to Salisbury were expanded to include Alpoko in the south, Westmore in the north and the excavation of a rail line to MTA.

In the weeks following the election, immense campaigning took place on the topic of Independence of Varkonia. Gobblin and BritishWanderer had decided not to run for the Varkonian Senate in the October elections which triggered a treaty crisis due to Article 9 ''Representation on the Senate''. Whilst underneath the surface, the Gabonese Government had entered talks with Varkonia about invoking Article 10 ''Gabon may Withdraw,'' this was mostly due to rising support among the populace. On the 1st October, Mickale addressed Varkonia concerning Gabon partnership inside of the union and the Lord High Chancellor would address Gabon the following day.
