Bikini Bottom was founded in 1100, it is one of the longest living cities in the ocean.

## History

Bikini Bottom during its creation was a city in a land ruled by King Neptune and King Poseidon, but they allowed the city to have its own smaller monarchy to rule over them. During the start of the city, it was ruled by King Krabs and Princess Pearl. Though, The Monarchy had an enemy. The enemy was the Great Planktonamor and his wife, Karen the Crystal Ball. They fought for many years until King Krabs used his own pet, The Dragon Jellyfish Against him. With the war concluded, King Krabs would remain King until his death in 1157, where Princess Pearl would take over and become Queen Peral.

She would rule the town from 1158-1163 where she decided to leave the town and move to Far-Out-Ville. The town would struggle to keep afloat for many year going through 7 different rulers in 14 years, eventually in 1178 they would find a new ruler, King Estrela the 3rd. In 1183 5 years after he first became ruler, a war between ਸਾਗਰ-ਨਗਰ (ancient Rock Bottomite for "Sea-Town") and Bikini Bottom would occur, where Rock Bottom would take most the land owned by Bikini Bottom.

The only land they managed to keep was a desert area, a few years after the war ened in 1189 King Estrela the 3rd would be overthrown by King Mirekebe who would only rule from August 15th, 1189-November 24th, 1889 the shortest amount of time any King/Queen has ruled Bikini Bottom. The Plankton Family took over again, they would rule from 1189-1201 where the Squidward family would shortly take over.

The first ruler of the Squid Era would be King Egguniya he would build the first cemetery in the town during this time, but he would later die from Squiditis in 1205 making his rule shorter than most expected. Next, Queen Span would take over. She would later be assassinated in 1209, making her ruling only go from 1205-1209. The next ruler would be King Polainnis, ruling from 1209-1219 in 1218 the great Mediwall war.

Bikini Bottom was looking to reclaim some land from the 12th century, but DullsVille (the new owners of the land) were way stronger, taking even more land from Bikini Bottom and even killing King Polainnis. That would mark the end of the Squid Era. In 1220 the Plankton family would take back over, the first ruler would be King Plancton the 3rd. He would end the war with DullsVille and take back some land saving this city from a early demise.

King Plancton would create the first mine trying to rely less on trade throughout the next few years, this would be the start of Bikini Bottom becoming a huge trading area. His rule would be from 1220 to his death in 1269. Then the new ruler King Bhuruu would decide to make the decision to become a democracy instead of a monarchy.

His would rule as King from 1270-1273 before become the Mayor of the town from 1273-1279. Then Mayor Bodho would take over from 1279-1321, following Mayor Trauku would rule from 1321-1352. Through 1353-1878, most of the history from this time would be lost in time. In 1878 all we would know is that a train during this time killed the Mayor of this time, Åsna.

Dead Eye Plankton would take over in 1879, he would force multiple stores, resturants and other businesses to pay him 70% of their earnings if they didn't transfer ownership to him. He made every restaurant make slop and sell just water, made every door making store make coffins and finally, forced people to clean his house... And when election time came he made it so he was the only candidate, rigging the elections. Luckily SpongeBuck SquarePants saved them in a duel, winning and becoming the town hero.

After, a member of the Starfish Family was appointed as major they decided to become a Monarchy again, though soon after the Monarchy’s power quickly dwindled. In 1968, Bikini Bottom decided to make elections again instead of being a Monarchy, but instead of them becoming mayor if they won they became president.

Bikini Bottom began its first presidential elections in 1968, the winner of the election would be Old Man Jenkins who would expand the town in a deal that would give DullsVille the land they have now and Bikini Bottom would get a equal amount of land going back to the land they had in 1100's. His presidency would go from 1968-1971.

In 1976, The Grandmother of Squidward Tentacles became President, she would increase the economy during her first presidency and help Rock Bottom during there many wars during that time. She would be president from 1976-1977. She ran for Re-election but wasn’t Re-elected until 1995. Not much happened during this period of time until the 21st Century came about. During this Time, The Rivalry between the Krabs and Plankton Family still burnt bright.

Though one notable aspect of the 21st century is the Discovery of the Jelliens who, aided by Eugene Krabs destroyed the majority of the city!! Luckily the Jelliens were defeated and the city was rebuilt. After this many more impactful events happened, including the 3 most recent elections. Electing Goku in the 1st election who helped the City very much!

During Goku’s presidency, there was a huge war. The Dullsville war was one of the biggest wars in the 21st century. Electing Gary in the 2nd election who was a very controversial figure who fought through many wars with us, and also nuked us many times especially during the Dullsville war, killing 90% of the population. This caused many riots and protests. And Electing Walker in the Latest Election, another great president! Walker helped us through many wars.

The Kelp War was the first war of 2023. This happened because TKE (the kelp empire) started taking over ally cities such as Binary Bottom. They also tried taking over SBB (south bikini bottom) but to no success. TKE took over Bikini Bottom fully and Bikini Bottom lost the war. But then, 2 anonymous fish assassinated TKE’s 2 leaders causing TKE to fall and Bikini Bottom to get their land back.

In Mid 2023, Squidward Tentacles was elected President of Bikini Bottom before being Assassinated by Elon Musk who is currently wanted in Bikini Bottom for the crime against the President. After his death, despite the fact that regularly, The Vice would be made President, Squidward had left a will. Within Squidward’s Will was him ordering the city to transfer the presidency to Joseph Stalin and his Communist Party. Joseph Stalin is a very “Harsh” President to some and very “Just” to others. During his presidency he has Invaded the Breakaway State of North Bikini Bottom and annexed it to bring it back to the Greater Country of Bikini Bottom. Stalin in his presidency, is expected to invade more countries as one of his main ideas as president is to restore Bikini Bottom.
