Pagans Rising Roleplay

The Pagans Rising RP, or how it is officially called "Alternate History of Europe RP: Pagans Rising", is a roleplay, which is set in the antiquity of earth, the focus on Europe. Most if not all members were on the Sunset Discord Server. The server is owned by WESTZ.
== Setting ==
=== Original RP ===
The original rp was set after the premature collapse of Rome, with several chats for the Roman Senate and other political entities. The first round was at 272 AD.
=== Pagans Rising RP ===
The actual Pagans Rising RP was set in a world where the Cimbric War never happened, since the germanic tribes had moved south earlier, leading to no strong nation being able to stop them. The first round was set in 300 BC. At first the map had only europe, but was later changed to include a world map, which slowly got filled with nations.
== Timeline ==
=== Era of Erudite ===
The rp was first founded by erudite on the 5th of February 2019, the first 5 people who joined after Erudite were (in order) WESTZ, parrotofkiveria, ThatSocialistScot and two unknown deleted users. It was just called "Alternate History of Europe RP" at that time. After 9 days WESTZ took over as the map maker of the rp, as Erudite began to distance himself from the rp and Discord in general, which lead to him transfering ownership to WESTZ. On the 6th of March 2019 the last map was posted, with WESTZ apologizing for the death of the rp on the 19th of March 2019, with him proclaiming that a restart may some day happen.
=== The Great Silence ===
After the death of the rp the server became entirely inactive and not a single thing happened until WESTZ began to post unfinished maps of progress, starting on the 18th of August 2019, which continued on the 24th of August 2019 and the 28th of August 2019. On the 29th of August 2019 he posted the finished map.
=== Era of WESTZ ===
The server was renamed to "Pagans Rising" to fit the new theme. When WESTZ took over the server gained a lot of activity, with prominent members including Hugo (as Frisia), NaZa (as Ardeos and Odrysia), Neva (as Rome and Iran) and TNK (as several countries including Kush, Lycia and the Santones). While Hugo and Neva stayed the entire rp both TNK and NaZa either left the rp or got kicked/banned out of the rp at some points. The rp had several months of barely any activity, but it never stopped being active entirely, it is one of the longest running still ongoing rps of the Sunset Community. Hugo was made "Kinda Admin", with his new power he renamed all inactive people. The RP ended on 11.08.2022 with round 221 BC as the final round having come out two days earlier.
== Trivia ==
-The AFOW-Series, which WESTZ posts daily on #mapping of the Sunset Server can be seen a day early on the server. This was later replaced by a continuation to this rp.
-The Ideology of the Server is Radical Westzism.
