The Guardian Nation
The Guardian Nation consisted of modern day Eagles Landing and the remaining territory south of the nation, that is in anarchy. This nation was controlled by the Guardians, an oligarchy that took control after the New Thedria Civil War. The Guardians were as follows:


 * The Guardian of the Nation - Head of Foreign Affairs
 * Currently leader of Eagles Landing
 * The True Guardian of the Laws - Head of Laws, Judiciary, Punishment (Position was hidden from the public)
 * Thought to have died in the Guardian Civil War, reported in Eagles Landing however.
 * The Guardian of Truth - Head Propagandist and Public Education
 * Killed in the Guardian Wars by the Guardian of War
 * The Guardian of War - Head of the Military
 * Killed by the masses after seizer of power
 * The Guardian of Money - Head of Finance
 * Killed by the Guardian of War.

When the Guardian of Truth and the Guardian of War began a power hungry assault against the other Guardians, buzzboygt entered exile in the nation of GrecoRomania. The True Guardian of Laws vanished, thought to have died in battle. The Guardian of Money was killed for not giving enough funding to military spending. After destroying the other members, the Guardian of War murdered the Guardian of Truth. He declared himself, the Guardian of All to the masses. He was assassinated by a civilian with a gardening hoe, now the state symbol of anarchy.

The Guardian Nation entered a state of anarchy, each man was for his own. Several towns in the regions became city-states and were the only security from the neighboring empires.

The Guardian Returns
After a single year, the Guardian of the Nation (The former head executive of the Guardian Nation) came back, alone. He took control of the city-state of Eagles Landing. This city was the Guardian Nations greatest producer of Wheat and Iron. Using these resources, the Guardian began to reinvent the city. After a single day, the Guardian used past trade relations to secure a trade that jump started the Eagles Landing economy.

No Longer the Guardian
The people of Eagles Landing became afraid, because it appeared that the Guardian Nation might become once again. The people of Eagles Landing forced the Guardian to sign a Constitution. This establish a new form of government, destroying the title of Guardian forever. The Guarding of the Nation became the President. His true name also became revealed, buzzboygt (The citizens still doubt this as his name however).

The Great Expansion
The Republic of Eagles Landing made up of the former providence of Eagles Landing. As the nation became more prosperous, former territories in the Guardian Nation began to enter the Republic of Eagles Landing as independent states. These states formed an Confederation known as The Republic of Eagles Landing.The Republic functions under the Eagles Landing Constitution and uses Eagles Landing (the city) as its capital. The first state to enter the confederation was the former state of The Western Gate. This became known as The State of the Shire because of its great amount of Scots-Irish and Irish decent. The nation of Eagles Landing created a university for the IRA known as The University of the Shire. The second state to enter the Republic was the State of Eastern Youngston Democracy. The EYD, as it was commonly known was renamed the State of Esticlan. The final former Guardian Nation State to enter in this time period was the state of Western Youngston Democracy or WYD. WYD was renamed New Jodran, after the capital city of the state, New Jodran.

Starving to Greatness
The Unsung Wars brought to the nation of Eagles Landing great economic turmoil. The nations farmers were unable to produce enough food due to the constant raiding of troops from the nations of The Legend of Einjard. This caused starvation through out the nation. buzzboygt, Grand General of the IRA, declared a military draft, and assumed emergency powers. This step was ratified by the Tribal Council and the vote of the people. Buzzboygt was quoted saying, "'These emergency powers I do not deserve, but I will use them to bring prosperity to our great Republic. No more shall these men have no punishment. No more shall our children starve to death.'"Buzzboygt met with TLE leaders with DMSC leaders present in order to talk peace. The reason for war was declared to because of recruiting of members of there alliance into the IRA. This was the most absurd thing the leader of Eagles Landing had heard. He than proved the leader of the TLE wrong and his true motives were seen in a light brighter than the summers day. Peace was in our time. At the end of the peace talks, Mooscoon, a member state of the IRA, merged with Eagles Landing, forming the State of Hebresica.

The Recovery Effort
After peace was declared on June 15, 2008, buzzboygt returned his emergency powers. He believed that it was not his right under the Eagles Landing Constitution to hold powers that belonged to the States. This passion and zeal for the Eagles Landing Constitution was noted by historians as "'...a great thing that few world leaders possess. Thank God that our leader does!'" The one month recovery effort was compounded by aid and the free market. The free market totaled 98% of the recovery effort, while foreign aid (which amounted to one million dollars) amounted to 2% of the recovery. On July 18, 2008, the Department of Numbers reported that "The financial state of the federation is stronger today than it was one month ago, two months ago even.'"

Religious Devotion
The IRA was founded and lead by Eagles Landing moral principles. It was a brotherhood and confederation on independent states. This great Confederacy was in a great decline. Buzzboygt presented a memorandum to the people of July 10, 2008 stating, "'Today the IRA is voting for merger. It is my duty to lead our great Confederation through any vote or strife, and my vote represents our vote. I cannot, in good conscience, vote either Nay or Aye without the peoples approval. Tomorrow there shall be a vote in all the states, on whether or not we should remain independent or join the Christian Coalition of Countries" The vote was tallied up, in a similar fashion as an Eagles Landing Presidential election, every state having two votes. The vote was tallied 6 Ayes, 4 Nays. The vote for a merger was Aye from Eagles Landing. On July 15, 2008, the merger was ratified by the IRA House of Countries, bring the confederation to an end.
