==History==
===Ancient History===
Known by the ancients as "Queerrus" meaning Place of Better person it was the site of a giant metropolis in 314BC hundreds of year ahead of the technology at the time, it is rumoured to be the real birthplace of Robin Hood who was banished for liking poor people, he stole from the rich, gave 5% to the poor and the rest was safely tucked away in an off shore bank account. the City was lost in AD 1202 when all the inhabitants caught a terrifying, and now eradicated, disease where their own head went too far up their own anuses.
===Middle ages===
In 1469 Oakwood was bought by the Duke of Snobsbury (1414-1471) known by the locals as a sort of messiah who planned to build a large estate on the ground, this however later fell through after he was brutally murdered when someone else got jealous of his horse. The land was then inherited by his brother Lord Smithington Smithe who Revamped the area into a red light district, the best in the country at the time. Historians claim this is greatest part of Oakwood's history.

Originally Oakwood gallows, a large tower similar to the tower of London built in 1655 to incarcerate anyone who refused to do their share of work, until 1817 when it was demolished after all the inmates started complaining that the water provided wasn't filtered. It was left as wasteland for over 100 years in which stories were told of millions of druids traveling to the area to sacrifice anyone of whom wasn't local to the area. In 1891 the government dickhead created new hunting laws, which allowed anyone with a 3 bedroom house or larger to freely kill anyone poorer than those who entered the area, a law which is still in force to this day.
===Early 20th Century=== 
In the mid 1930's a revamp of the area was attempted but this was later destroyed in 1942 by what was thought to be German bombers. it later turned out it was in fact bombed by English Pilots who saw the generic buildings and inhabitants as members of the German front. This was due the the locals Hugo Boss clothing which caused the pilots to think they were members of the SS.
===Early 1970's- Late 1990's===
