Full History of Port Potato

Founded: June/10th/2020 (Probably)

Original apart of a "crew" of 3 Deckies, all friends IRL, IronGolem5, Silver_Wild, and DeDerpyDerp; DeDerpyDerp set out south of their original fort near /east for a place to build a port. After buying Firstmate (wanting to own a frigate), he beached his small dhow at the current location of Port Potato. After building a small mini-base, he set north and found a Frigate, to his "suprise" unclaimed. He captured it, took it to the Port, and thus the Port Potato Navy was created, with the first ship being DNS Suprise. (DNS being DeDerpyDerp_'s Naval Ship.) The first crew DeDerpyDerp was in, the original DNE, never lasted but was "DeDerpyDerp_'s Naval Empire". Soon, Sonu06's of AQUA asked DeDerpyDerp to join. He accepted. While his 2 friends were kept in the dark of the port, in order to suprise them.

As DeDerpyDerp invested into the port, becoming more active, his friends became less active. Not much is recorded of this time, sadly.

The First Battle of Port Potato as recounted by DeDerpyDerp: "Due to AQUA Agression, and allied force raided Port Potato. I immediately surrendered after realizing his allies weren't coming to help, most of them being offline. Port Potato was allowed to surrender separately from AQUA, and we didn't even face occupation. Soon, negotiations about a war lead to Sonu06, AQUA's leader, to explain that AQUA was a raiding crew. This was the first I had been told of our declared status of raiding. I began trying to succeed from AQUA."

After a peace was negotiated, DeDerpyDerp talked with his attacker, ironically whom he soon reconized one as the first person he built a ship for. (Person sadly unknown, burnt records) After appolzing for the attack, they helped DeDerpyDerp gain freedom.

Age of Expansion.

By now IronGolem5 and Silver_Wild had moved in, and the port had a oak wood farm, and a Potato farm. This Potato farm caused the name to be "Port Potato". The Port of Potatoes. Yet again not much is remembered of this era, as DeDerpyDerp forgot to keep records.

---

The Second Battle of Port Potato as recounted by DeDerpyDerp: "Due to my loyalties to my allies, CSN tried to get md to fight ESE, one of his main allies. After refusing, the largest battle to date at my port broke out. Tl;dr 20 CSN crew members and at least 5 cannons were brought to bear. 5 hours of constant sieging left what was left of the Port near ruin. Port Potato finally surrendered."

---

The Third Battle of Port Potato as recounted by DeDerpyDerp: "I was the only active member of Port Potato, now under CSN rule. Due to me wanting to fully own the port, I had enough, raised my flag back ontop of the Port, and due to CSN forgetting about the Port, got away with claiming independence without any allied forces helping. This somehow worked."

---

Post-CSN Rule IronGolem5, being nearly never active, did participate in the third battle, helping burn the CSN flag garrisoned at Port Potato. Silver_Wild had been offline almost 6 months now.

Port Potato was expanding at a large rate, it now having 5 ships to it's name.

• DNS Sky
• DNS Suprise
• DNS Potato
• DNS Southernly Gale
• DNS Potato-tion Gaurd

"The Silver Incident" The Crew of Port Potato, now under the DNE crew name, the crew "Port Potato", had expanded to include some former members of AQUA and 2 deckies. Sadly, most where inactive [Only DeDerpyDerp and Silver_Wild (rarely) have been on, IronGolem5 being on also rarely. Paraphrazed by DeDerpyDerp: "Sadly, after DeDerpyDerp becoming very close friends with Silver_Wild, being "Loved like a brother" (later on DeDerpyDerp realized ironically Silver_Wild hates her family). Silver_Wild suddenly broke ties with DeDerpyDerp with little explanation. (Most details are withheld for respect of Silver_Wild's privacy.)"

Soon, None of the Port Potato members were active. Even DeDerpyDerp, "The last of Port Potato", IronGolem5 handing over his claims, and Silver_Wild (who would've been the successor to DeDerpyDerp) leaving, left just DeDerpyDerp. He went offline for almost 6 months, even unlocking his ships and telling allies "all yours, just sail them to a better home." (Luckily none we're ever taken).

---

The Prussian Renaissance. Yraglacus, a shipwright well know on the server (at least to Port Potato's allies) wished to create a crew, Prussia (PRSA). DeDerpyDerp joined Yrag in creating Prussia, gifting his port as a colony, the first colony infact, to Prussia. DeDerpyDerp soon became co-leader of Prussia.

---

Expansion Era Two, Electric Boogaloo

Modern Day Port Potato, now revitalized, is expanding and expects a warehouse and 2 drydocks to be finished soon.

---

(4-24-2021) Yraglacus-era Port Potato temporarily left to [Yraglacus] as DeDerpyDerp left Prussia to join VISN to fight CSN. He will return to Prussia (PRSA) after the war.

---

(5-22-2021) On leave from VISN, DeDerpyDerp built a now mostly complete set of dry docks at Port Potato; and plans to revive Port Potato Shipyards will ensue.---------------(6-23-2021) PRSA has been not only declared dead by Yraglacus, but also DeDerpyDerp was allowed to stay in VISN. Using debt owed to DeDerpyDerp; Yrag sold Port Potato (and all his holdings, including being the soul successor of the port and her territories) to DeDerpyDerp for a (agreed low offer) of ~4,000 before intrest. NOTE: THE PORT IS NOT FOR SALE.

VISN now indirectly owns Port Potato, however it remains full autonomous. Potato trades are reported "good".-------------(7-24-2021) DeDerpyDerp_, on vacation, decided to update the page.

"Port Potato has commisioned the VEN Port Potato, a ship of our own design. She is my new flagship, and I will keep the VEN Potato, my former flagship, as another trader in my fleet. We have started to look into hiring farmers to farm at Port Potato."-----------(7-26-2021) 4th Battle of Port Potato

---

(8-8-2021) Port Potato has launched a Rapid Expansion Project, with a goal of a (5k claimblocks small city sized) expanasion across the bay from Port Potato. Work so far has been putting signs everywhere making the intentions known, Port Potato will soon claim this land. (We are to broke rn.)

(8-8-2021) Progress Update on the Rapid Expansion Project: All major planned roads are done, and now we just will claim the plots and build when ready for the new buildings.

*Also at 6pm EST A Mr. GodsEgg donated 500, the biggest donation to Port Potato so far.

---

(8-9-2021) Port Potato has realized it's Potato selling/storage system is to small; and now is building a larger one. The Sell/Buy area will stay the same; just the storage area will change from 5 dubs of each to *unknown amount* each. (Baked and Raw)
