The History of GGMRP

Garnet Gaming Military Roleplay (MRP, GGMRP) is a Garry's Mod Server that has been in operation since **2015**. Throughout time, the server has gone through multiple changes that changed the landscape of the server, population wise and location wise. After searching through the history of the server, I feel like I can separate the server into 4 eras. While the United States have remained a consistent faction on GGMRP, the other side has changed a total of 4 times.

**1st Era: US/Taliban Ver. 1 - [Insert Date here] - February 15th, 2018**

**2nd Era: US/EU/Russia/Taliban - [Unknown] - [Unknown]**

**3nd Era: US/Russia - February 15th, 2018 - September 21st, 2021**

**4th Era: US/Taliban Ver. 2 - September 21st, 2021 - Present**

Even with thorough investigations, history is hard to keep up with this server, as documents that existed in the beginning are either deleted or unable to be accessed. In the beginning, only TeamSpeak was used as the main form of communication between factions, as Discord wasn't as popularized in the middle of the 2010s, which means that these documents were handed through links given by officers.

**(WARNING: MANY DOCUMENTS ARE STILL MISSING AND HAVEN'T BEEN FOUND YET. THIS IS *VERY* LACKING AND WILL BE UPDATED ONCE MORE DOCUMENTS HAVE BEEN FOUND. THIS ISN'T EVERYTHING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED ON THE SERVER)**

With this, let's begin with the **1st Era.**

The server started its operation sometime in **2015**, with the **United States of America and Islamic Jihad Union (Taliban)** being the first iteration of factions on the server. Because of how long ago it was, many of the documents have been lost to time and we have lost the names of the Marshals that existed on the Taliban, as well as many of the SOC leaders for all the factions. Army has kept a good amount of the names of their **Generals of the Army (GA's)** through their documents, though they haven't kept the dates of when they were in the position. Regardless, we know the GA's used to last months on end, making sure that 11B had ways to improve on themselves. Many of the documents from **Rangers, Green Beret, and Delta Force** are still lost to time.

We still have some documents that show how the First Iteration of Taliban functioned. Back then, they used to call their leaders "**Allah**" and the factions that we see today, such as **Red Group, 055th, Badri 313 and ISI** existed as the first SOC factions for the Taliban. The last "**Allah**" of the First Iteration of Taliban was **Redindy**, the final document describing him as having "maintained a good level of seriousness and fun" His reign ended on **February 15th, 2018**, when **Russia** became the main enemy of the US. From the point forward, **Logan The Founder** would start the reign of the **Russian Federation.**

The **2nd Era** is also a hard era to comb through, as many of the documents that the **EU** had are missing and haven't been found yet. While we do know that **Russia** existed during this time period, we haven't discovered anything yet whether it's the **Russia** that **Logan** had or a competely different **Russia**. Because of this, we will update this section as more information on this time period emerges.

Now, we move onto the **3rd Era**.

This era lasted from **February 15th, 2018,** to **September 21st, 2021.** The first couple of months appear to have gone smoothly, as the server entered the summer and experienced massive population boosts. This era has been easier to keep track of as the server started using Discord in order to properly communicate with each other better, with Teamspeak still being used as well. **Russia** during this iteration had **26 Marshals**
