| - Amslandia was founded by a group of utopia-seeking dissenters from a now-forgotten(at least to the people of Amslandia) nation under the premise of establishing a society that treats all people as equal individuals, not only on paper, but in the ideology of its citizens. Originally numbering only several hundred, these founding members of Amslandia applied and were said to be hand-picked for the venture by a figure known only as Amos. The land they settled became what is now Amslandia, and is, to the best of available knowledge, the oldest such settlement on their continent(The oldest settlements in the region, however, belong to Fasdokl). It was decided upon settlement that the national animal would be the honey bee, a species that, despite being vital to agriculture and human survival, had been driven nearly to extinction by pesticide use and pollution in the founders' home country. The national currency was bestowed the name "pebble" as a testament to the minimalist and non-materialistic ideology of the founders. Upon the establishment of a new regional government in the area by Alstexan, the Amslandian government became the first in the region to join the collective, which came to be known as Nations Under the Rador. On 14 November, 2014, Amslandia overtook Alstexan by popular vote to become the regional delegate for the World Assembly for the region, and continues to hold this position to this day.
