Brownie

Introduction
Brownie joined sometime either during or shortly after the Drewsades. He joined the alliance Nova America and began his political career in the Novan democracy. 
He left Nova to form his own alliance, Western Nova, which was used to exploit a glitch where players could receive multiple rewards in the same day if they alliance-hopped at the right time. Western Nova had a rivalry with another small alliance on the west coast called Sticklandia. This would go on to cause Brownie major problems throughout his history.
Separatism
After Willy patched the multiple rewards exploit, Nova America attempted to reintegrate Brownie and his alliance members. Western Nova lost a lot of members to pressure from Nova, but Brownie committed to independence.
With only a few members left, he facilitated a merger with several high-ranking Sticklandia members as well as members of a new alliance called True North. The combined alliance was named Cascadia, and a leadership election was held. 
Brownie won the first and only election in Cascadian history, beating da ork and AndrewEWiggin, the latter of which was later kicked from the alliance for insubordination. 
The fall of Nova America and the Stick Wars
Nova America planned a massive campaign to kick the Black Sun out of the US. TBS instead wiped them from the map and Nova America disbanded forever. Cascadia stayed neutral during this war, which was the beginning of a long tradition of staying out of the way of major powers. A few holdouts in Sticklandia had refused to join up during the merger, notably a relentless player named FamousPlan who found glitches in the game and used them against Cascadia before he reported their existence to Willy. Several members of Cascadia left to form the New California Republic during this time, including finnthepotat0.
The Stick Coalition War
A rat coward known as TinyALL managed to convince NCR, Sticklandia, and members of his own alliance YSSR to start a war against the Cascadians. Stick players hhlel and ReedyTurnip destroyed Cascadia's border at Madison held by Baxter49, Milwaukee and the sweep began. Kim Jong John of YSSR contributed the most to wiping Cascadia off the map, and with that they were gone. Many members would leave over the following days, some went inactive while others abandoned Cascadia entirely.
Brownie became less active, prompting some to speculate whether he'd quit the game or his account had been locked.
The Return
After weeks of being off the map, Brownie and a couple trusted members began organizing new borders. A very small territory was set up around Vancouver, BC, stretching down to Redding, California and a little ways into Idaho. 
Facing little pressure, the remaining members began to organize their defenses and slowly expanded east. Many wars were fought with the Sticks during this time, but no major power opposed Cascadian expansion. 
Alliances have come and gone from North America, but Brownie and Cascadia have been a constant for a long time now.
As of July 2023, Brownie remains the leader of Cascadia.
