Amazonas (Solace World 2)

Amazonas was a nation that existed during Solace World 2. It was situated in northeastern South America, primarily in the Amazon rainforest. Its leader and sole member was Bensjef. The nation was a relatively isolationist one, with it rarely being involved in foreign affairs or conflicts unless one provoked them first.

History
Amazonas was founded during the launch of Solace World 2 on January 4th, 2020 by Bensjef, a player who had recently discovered the server. He had claimed a large chunk of territory in the eastern Amazon rainforest, especially massive for a one-player nation.

Overtime, Bensjef had founded and developed a few settlements spread about Amazonas. The largest of these settlements was A Jóla, a city built surrounding an existing NPC village. The nation had also begun to build friendly diplomatic relationships with other nations, such as the Commonwealth of America.

On March 1st, Zaire declared war on Amazonas under the command of Owning69, during a period of internal fracture within the former nation. Bensjef quickly thereafter surrendered; thus, the war ended with a Zairean victory. In the peace treaty Amazonas was made a colony of Zaire, though Bensjef still retained autonomy over the land.

Zairean rule in Amazonas would not last long, though: by March 9th, Zaire let go Amazonas as a colony for unknown reasons, and it once again became an independent nation.

From that point on, Amazonas continued to exist peacefully, as it had before, until the end of the world; it had not expanded its borders even once.

Geography
Amazonas was a vast nation primarily situated in the eastern half of the Amazon rainforest and the Amazon River basin. In game, the territory of the nation was mostly covered in a large jungle biome, with portions being covered in savanna, forest, or plains biomes also.

Settlements
Amazonas contained a total of three settlements within its borders:


 * A Jóla — a large settlement built surrounding an NPC village, constructed of mostly jungle wood, savanna wood, and cobblestone. Hosted a townhall, various farms, and other auxiliary buildings.
 * Cockatoo Ranch
 * El Dorado — a water fountain constructed out of gold blocks; a popular tourist attraction for the nation.
