Invicta

## History

### Founding

Invicta was founded by three friends in Summer of 57 TE when Chadius Maximus, Tyrus Maximus, and Zacharius Maximus bought an island off of the T.E.A for around 20k at the time, (now valued at over 500k) they quickly got to work recruiting, building, and gaining good diplomatic relations with the neighboring nations. For the next two months, nothing changed inside the land with people coming and going until the three Imperators bought another set of islands for 27k these new islands would remain inside the Imperium until the merge

### Nexus merger

In the fall of 2021, Both of the Nexus's joined together to form a stronger nation. For the first two months, Invicta remained active until the imperial government began to leave Invicta behind and treat it as a colony instead of a core province, after this the founders Chadius, and Zacharius began to push for independence from the Empire but were quickly removed from Nexus and labeled terrorists. With most of the citizens leaving with them Invicta became a ghost town and was unclaimed for months.

### Revival

The son of Tyrus Maximus, Julius Maximus found himself back on the island of his birth seeing his home in such disrepair he began to rebuild the city. Julius was able to get in contact with the original founders, and his uncles with the Nexan Civil war ongoing the new citizens were quick to come to the aid of the government producing food, lumber, and other raw materials. Once the war ended the citizens of Invicta not wanting to be seen as 2nd class citizens the Invitcans began to push for independence with their major showing the results to the Council of Stone the people's push was refused but after enough pressure from the people, Invicta was now an independent nation.

### Independence

During the first days of Independence, the form of government moved around from a democratic republic to a monarchy in days. However, a monarchy was finally settled on with the first monarch of Invicta being Julius Maximus-Libertas. Invicta began to thrive with a new ship! the ISS. Invicta was built as a top-of-the-line sailing vessel capable of cargo and transport. The development of Invicta continued.

### Merkonis War

The ice sheet of Arkamis is settled by Julius's son Jason which upsets the nation of Merkonis as Arkamiss is right off the shore. Tensions began to rise as the leader of Merkonis claimed Invicta was Merkonian land and all Invitcans were thus labeled squatters in the eyes of Merkonis. The Imperator began to negotiate with the Merkonian leader however instead was met with insults, The Imperator did not let this stand he began to build walls around the Invitcan shores to protect his people the Merkonian leader would be seen building around Invicta trying to trap the citizens of Invicta. Shortly after Merkonis would declare war on the nation of Invicta with Invicta calling her allies into the war the first battle would happen at Arkamiss. Which led to a draw, a couple of days later the battle of Invicta begins with major damage being done to the city with this being the last chance for Invicta to remain free the soldiers attack the enemy and win the battle keeping the city safe. Invicta remains independent.
