Tropica was founded on January 27, 2014 by Des23 and her two friends. The three were newfriends who joined Civcraft just a few days earlier with the aim to establish their own nation for their own personal reasons. After a bit of searching, Des found the island of Rosia, which became the main island of the nation that housed the government and most of the residents. |

Confused by [[RealisticBiomes]] and thus unable to grow their own food, the Tropicans spent the first few days of their existence plundering nearby abandoned cities, such as [[CivcraftImport:Cities2/solis|Solis]], for food. In their free time, they worked on small builds and decided not to establish a formal government. |

On February 24th, Tropica expanded after they annexed a large plains island west of Rosia. This island allowed them to grow wheat and potatoes, crops they were unable to grow before in their jungle home. The island would remain officially unnamed until August 2014 when Des named it after one of the co-founders of Tropica who went inactive. |

Soon after, inactivity swept both Tropica and Avalon. Two of Tropica's co-founders lost interest in Civcraft and went inactive, leaving Des as the only resident. Avalon also lost citizens to inactivity, meeting only once and cancelling a second meeting due to there not being enough to talk about. |

After spending time in NDZ, Des decided to abandon Tropica for the last time and move to NDZ. On March 25th, the constitution was suspended, never to be reinstated again.
