| − | ===Gaining Independence===
| |
| − | On September 18, 2020 Nassau would be added as a playable faction into Tradelands. Due to it being new a temporary leadership would be set up under the leadership of Admiral w0ws. Nassau would find it self instantly in a Region Wide War between two sides. With the Aukai blockade of Hallengard ending a day before, and the War for the Reconquest of [[Perth]] started by Nova Balreska on Whitecrest two days before. Burkeland would decide to support Whitecrest in the war after an attempted takeover by a Scion of the Man Dynasty, LucasKCVC, dragging the new faction into it.

| − | Peace would not last for long however, the newly elected Governess Apple_Turnovers would see the Purshovian-Burkelandic War's Grand Isles Theatre unfold before her eyes. Seeing the Fortress of [[Clydesdale]] fall to the [[Purshovia]] Navy and the ongoing fight for the [[Burkeland (Region)|home isles of Burkeland]] she would declare Nassuvian independence. Admiral w0ws seeing the situation would start a coup which would fail, after which negotiations would begin between Nassau and Burkeland. In the end Nassau would give up Salem for the [[Saint Christopher|Fort of Saint Christopher]], which was supported by Purshovia. Nassau would find it self in peace, electing Ser50 to be their second Governor. But while Nassau was establishing itself, conflict was brewing all across the Grand Isles. And on December 27, 2020, Nova Balreska would finally declare war on Nassau to take control of their Fort. After the loss of their islands, Nassau had no other option but to maken an alliance with their on-and-off enemy, Whitecrest. The two factions would fight against Nova Balreska in the coming months of 2021, till finally the Purshovian Admiral, Marochev, would take affairs into his own hands, creating a semi-coalition with the factions of the Grand Isles and crush Nova Balreska. Nassau successfully retake Saint Christopher during Purshovia's blockade and bombardment of [[Verdantium (Island)|Verdantium]].

| − | ===Times of Stability & Turbulence===
| |
| − | With order restored to the region, Nassau would look towards the new small once again independent nation of Salem. The small faction gained freedom after the Peace Treaty between Purshovia and Nova Balreska, but Nassauvian Leadership, claiming it as it's rightfull territory would seek to conquer the island once more. Salem's defenders would prove to be a strong defensive force, halting the Nassuvian Navy many times during the war with [[Ships|Trading Ships]], the war gaining the nickname; the "Goose War" after the conflict ended. Nova Balreska would intervine multiple times during the conflict which would last 2 months, ending with the Nova Balreskan takeover and annexation of the island. With nowhere to expend Nassau would find itself in a small amount of peace, while the contreversional election of July caused chaos inside of Nassau. With Ser50 being unable to run, multiple unliked candidates wishing to become the next Governor and successor of Ser50 tried to gain the position of leadership. Due to the chaos an attempted political takeover by the player Beyonder was started, declaring himself the self-appointed Governor of Nassau. It would all end with the unprepered candidate, blueskydiamondgaming becoming Governor for a short while, before suddently disapearing, after which the Governor position was overtaken by Admiral SquidTrain, a veteran in Nassau's wars. Nassau would stabalize till the next election, where the candidate Poutpout_army, a beloved figure would win the vote of the people.

| − | Poutpout_army's intended reforms that he set up to do would be interupted by the First Whitecrest Siege of Saint Christopher, that saw the Nassuvian Navy fiercly defending against the Kingdom of Whitecrest, King EfficientYT wishing to establish a defencive live against Nova Balreska. The war would be marked by the amount of blockades that took place during it, being one of the only wars fought with naval battles only. In the middle of the war, Governor Poutpout_army resigned from his position, with a temporery Naval Junta being set up for the duration of the conflict. The war would end with the final battle between Whitecrest and Nassau at Saint Christopher, the Nassuvians sinking or boarding the naval ships of Whitecrest. Combat would end on the [[Posiedon]] of Whitecrest Navy member Zachgaudio, the nassuvians capturing it in the process. Whitecrest and Nassau would sign a peace deal a day later.

| − | Ser50 would be reelected after the war, leading a once again peaceful time for Nassau for the rest of the year. With his decision to not run once again, ItzNastyyy would take up the mentel of Governer in the peaceful times of Nassau. During this time, Nassau would send out a mysterius expedition, which details or what happened have not yet been revealed to the public, with Whitecrest and Nova Balreskan ships sailing out as well for unknown reasons. During this time, the pirate invasion of islands happened, lead by cleoiivm Captain and Pirate Queen of the Blackwind Pirates. Admiral Skulldragon7 seeing Perth's takeover by pirates would try to liberate it, to exchange it for the island of Salem, but would be unable to fight off the pirates, temporary loosing Saint Christopher to the Pirate Queen, Saint Christopher would return under the third Governship of Ser50. While these events were unfolding, the [[Inyola|Inyolan]] Commander Y'Gert announced his presence to the people of the Grand Isles to liberate the supporters of Inyolan Rebels in the region. He would call on the Imperial Alliance to fight against the Rebels and Purshovia, with Nassau and Blackwind both supporting the rebels. It is uncertain what will be Nassau's faith with the recent declaration of war by Whitecrest and the Inyolan Incursin to the Grand Isles.
