Here, you can find the current written history of the Cascadian Commonwealth. I would like your input on this draft, so please tell me if you want anything added.
On a cold November night, thousands upon thousands of squirrels from the forests of Cascadia (Then a province of
Darcania
) began an uprising against the Government of
Darcania
. Eventually, through a string of long, bloody, and squirrelly wars, lasting a few minutes, won Independence from the tyrannical government. Negotiations in
Darcania
with the Squirrels began, and ultimately, they surrendered land from the province for the new nation. The Commonwealth of Cascadia was born, and under the new Squirrelly Government, the nation thrived. For a few hours. Once the squirrels realized they couldn't run a government, they abandoned their positions and headed back to the forests where they belong. Fortunately, the people of Cascadia knew how to run a government better than a bunch of squirrels. Ultimately, the new human government, ruled by Prime Minister Ethan Archer, established an alliance with
Darcania
. They became great trade partners in cheese exports.
