History

Prehistory

Under the name "LightRepublic", 16.png O8GC (who originally joined as _chrisleighton) created the faction which was meant to be nothing but a castle with a village to house his faction members. While partially achieved, O8GC wanted, unlike many other factions, to base his faction on an ideology which later become socialism. That's when he changed the faction name multiple times ranging from "People's Republic of Light" to "People's Vanguard of Unity" (PVU). It was ultimately that he decided to go with East Germany, when he caught wind of 16.png M4GIC_BUBBEL, who just so happen to be German aswell, and his establishment of a faction with a somewhat opposite ideology.

Development after change

After the faction has become the DDR, the continuation of the castle was halted (although it is still in use today). Like many communist/socialist countries in real life, high rise apartment blocks (also called commieblocks) were constructed primarly out of stone. Next to them, a statue of the emblem of East Germany consisting of a hammer and a compass was built aswell.

Change in location

Old location, the town aswell as the castle can be seen

The main reason why the faction has changed its location and moved right next to Germania was the idea of constructing the Berlin Wall. Not only would it be historically accurate, but it would also be somewhat of a sightseeing for visitors of Germania. With the help of Germania, a lot of terraforming on the future territory of the DDR was done. There eventually was enough space to start the construction of the border wall between the two factions consisting of two walls with fences and watchtowers in between.

Status

The only things happening at the moment are the extention of the wall, the construction of apartmentblocks and terraforming. Things like monuments and non-residential buildings will come up in the future.

Trivia

Oddly enough, the in-game wall was unintentionally constructed exactly 63 years and one day after the original on the 14th of August 2024.
