The dissolution of the [[Queendom of Evermoor]] at the end of 2014 resulted in both a power vaccuum as well as many homeless players. | The dissolution of the [[Queendom of Evermoor]] at the end of 2014 resulted in both a power vaccuum as well as many homeless players. The time was ripe for new great [[alliances]] to emerge. Of all the upstarts, the British Empire was the most successful. Founded in February 2015 by CrazyPirate, its growth skyrocketed and within a couple of weeks the British Empire already counted 20 citizens. | ||
Most of the newly acquired territories were focused around the [[North Sea]], which quickly became the safest area for British citizens to reside. Expansion into other quadrants provided mixed results. Heavy [[pirate]] activity in the east led to many new British colonies being raided, which in turn resulted in frequent skirmishes between buccaneers and British redcoats. In particular a British retaliation raid on pirate-controlled [[Havanna]] led to much bloodshed, the battle was however ultimately lost and the British forces opted to abandon their struggling colonies and instead claim new territories on the far western side of the [[PirateCraft_1|world]]. | Most of the newly acquired territories were focused around the [[North Sea]], which quickly became the safest area for British citizens to reside.
