### **Founding of Ulster**

#### **The First Ulster**

The history of Ulster stretches further back than its current established date of January 28th 2022.

On November 23rd, 2021, the first Ulster was founded by Citizens of the 2nd Hong Kong, who fled the Japanese Empire after its defeat by the Oceanic Empire. The founding members were Naezareth, banana739 or (now Banana\_chama), and popopo123456. These 3 were the Old Guard of Ulster while others followed shortly after, Con\_ska, JOJO\_JACK, krowV2 (OmuuParrott) and BrendyZushinku. All at one point were together in Hong Kong. During Late November and Early - Mid December Ulster thrived quickly surpassing Hong Kong in Wealth and Power and were on the rise, but due to miscommunication there was not enough money in the town bank and the 1st Ulster fell on the 26th of December.

#### **The Second Ulster**

The 2nd Ulster was founded on January 28, 2022 nearly a month after the 1st Ulster.

The members of the town quickly reclaimed most of their lost lands, excluding half of the port that was claimed by a new town in Ireland called Ciboure. The 2nd Ulster got back on its feet in a matter of days and absorbed Ciboure and reclaimed the entirety of the old Port.

The old members started to rejoin the town one by one except for a few, who when the first Ulster fell fled back to Japan and created a town in the Philippines under the leadership of BrendyZushinku, Reino de Maharlika. After attempts of convincing Brendy to rejoin the town, the members of Ulster went on to do multiple rounds of piracy along the Japanese coastal cities gaining a lot of sets, swords, banners and heads. After this, the town became more connected towards the rest of the GNE with infrastructures, trade, contracts and participating in more sieges.

### **Disbanding of Ulster**

Around July 2022, after much discussions, the people of Ulster decided to migrate to Russia to start anew, forming the Russian Empire. Ulster was left vacant and fell shortly after. The date of this disband has since been lost to time, but the entire town was demolished and in its place, the United Kingdom's Fort of Dunlace Castle was formed
