This era came to an end when the delegate Magicality was succeeded by a relatively unknown player: UPSrail. UPS unilaterally reversed the foreign policy of the region, declaring allegiance to Franco’s NPO, and went on a banning spree, ultimately resigning the delegacy in favour of Great Bight, who many still suspect to have been a NPO puppet.
Great Bight founded ALSO – designed to be the new government of the region. But few of the natives of the region took to the new regime, and a fierce opposition arose, bringing to TNP the first, though not the last, taste of conflict. Natives of the region engaged in an unendorsement campaign, and also kept the original forum of the reigon active, forming a government in exile around Thel D’ran. While this was going on, other plans were afoot, and on 28th July the region awoke to find that a combined force of ALL, ADN, and other defenders spearheaded by Free4All (Ballotonia) had wrested the region from Great Bight. Free4all handed the delegacy over to Thel D’ran, and the natives of the region.
However, the Great Bight Era had left deep scars in the region. First there was a legacy of conflict and argument which remains to this day. Second, despite the role of the ADN in liberating the region, relations between some in the region and the organisation were soured in this period, and within six months the NP would leave the ADN, and lose much of its active defender role.
The delegacies of Thel Dran, Sydia and Cathyy (as Pixiedance) were marked by attempts to recover from the trauma of Great Bight, and also to safeguard the region from rogue delegacies, largely by the adoption of constitutions and legal codes. Sadly, it is a truism that “where you get laws, you get lawyers” and this period of NP life became characterised by suspicion, factionalism and infighting.
Eventually, all of this came to a head, and Cathyy performed an act of desperation, or betrayal, depending who you talk to: On 8 January 2005 Pixiedance handed over control of her nation, and hence the delegacy, to Pierconium (Borogravia Moldavi) of the People's Republic of the Pacific. This new delegate immediately suspended the constitution and declared martial law, ejecting and banning the nation placed second in the region in endorsements (Better Times, aka Free4All). Later that week, Pierconium restored the nation to Pixiedance's control at her request. The constitution was restored to full effect.
On 18th January Pixiedance herself declared a state of emergency and suspended the constitution. She also dissolved the region's alliance with the A.L.L., which had become increasingly confused since the A.L.L. refused to recognise the Delegate/Government as being able to act on behalf of the region. Two days later, she gave her nation once again to Pierconium/Moldavi.
As soon as this change of delegacy was confirmed, The Underground arose in the region, a resistance movement based at the region's original forum The Underground later changed its name to The North Pacific Confederation, and became the home of a revitalised Constitutional government from the region.
Nearly six months later , Moldavi returned the nation Pixiedance to its original owner Cathyy, who immediately passed it on to Insane Power, a high-ranking Directorate member and at that time Minister of External Affairs in the NPD. In turn, Cathyy received IP's nation Insane Legends to avoid having one player control two UN nations. Moldavi objected to the passing of Pixiedance and sripped Root Admins status on his forum from the then Delegate, Insane Power. Moldavi had agreed this and non-forum interference as part of the handing back of Pixiedance.
In response to TNP yet again being held to ransom by a forum owner Insane Power created a new forum and continued with his planned founding of a new government known as The North Pacific Governent(TNPG) and named his new cabinet the North Pacific Government (NPG). This Government took many steps towards what had been demanded by members of the region under the NPD But there were those in the region who were intensely suspicious of Insane Power, given that he had been an active supporter of the NPD.
On 26th of May 2005, history was again written in the North Pacific as Insane Power resigned Pixiedance from the United Nations, leaving TNP without a delegate. Insane Legends (then second in the endorsement ranking) was immediately resigned also, thus creating what can only be termed a power vacuum as the endorsement cap had long prevented any other nation from coming close in endorsements. The day until the next update was marked by vigorous endorsement and undendorsement campaigns, mostly supporting one or the other of the nations Thel DRan and Lungwallabad, who were the most likely successors.
Notably, Insane Power still held the Regional Controls, and used this power to endorse Thel DRan in the World Factbook Entry, as well as ejecting several active contenders, among them Leonardo Da Vinci and Stars of Sky. Mere seconds before the update, he ejected Lungwallabad (then holding the most endorsements), perhaps to ensure a victory of Thel DRan. However, this was too late, and Lung became delegate at the same time. He unbanned himself and cleared the banlist, ejecting Cathyy and Poltsamaa. This day, as Lungwallabad became delegate, marked the first time since 25th of October 2004 that a nation other than Pixiedance held the regional delegacy.
The following day Stars of Sky gained the delegacy from Lungwallabad. She had been avoiding the update, in a practice known as update surfing. She held around 250 endorsements, and moved back into the North Pacific.
In June/July 2005 a New Constitution was adopted for the North Pacific, and the Forum known affectionately as "S2" or "Old Blue" was confirmed as the official forum of the region, continuing a tradition begun in 2003. Government and delegate elections followed, and a peaceful transfer of the delegacy followed. The state of emergency that had existed in the region for some months was finally at an end.
At the end of November 2005 the region voted to move away from the S2 forum which had been its home for two years. This was sparked by a dispute with the root admin there, the Twoslit Experiment. A new forum was established and is now going from strength to strength.

In short, heck yeah.
A lot of the history from those events is documented on "Old Blue" - there's a link to it in the archives, if you want to take a look. It'll take a while, though.
