HISTORICAL ACCOUNT OF THE RISE OF NEW SCANDINAVIA AND THE BEGINNING OF THE REIGN OF HAROLD I
by Olaf Stonebone

Among all of the factions, rememberances of Earth remained and the cultural heritages were preserved, among these were descendants of Scandinavians, and they preserved their sagas and the glory of their 10000 year old culture. The despotic Serco First Citizen declared the old legacies extinct and persecuted those that sought to perserve their culture. "Earth is gone, it is time we create a new history," He proclaimed. The Itani's Oligarchical Ruling Council followed suit. It was called the Great Purge, and the memory of Earth diminished as the Serco and Itani rules consolidated their hold of their citizens. Groups of Swedes, Norse, and Dutch, disenchanted with their respective factions, followed their leader, LordViking, to the secluded Sec10 roid base to create an economic empire in which their heritage could flourish. Believing in the benifit of democratic rule, the New Viking Republic was formed. Declaring Neutrality from all factions, New Scandinavia became a satellite territory of the neutral sectors. They traded for a time, ammasing great wealth, their population boomed on their small cracked roid, and it was time to find new roids to colonize. Habitabitation on small roids was near impossible, for they frequently would colide with eachother. The New Vikings had to look to known space for habitation. But the colonies of Serco and Itani wouldn't let the culturaly vibrant Vikings back into their space. And then tragedy occured, an Itani death squad entered secter 10, and headed for the nearest inhabitated small roid, they gained access to the Ny Gotland shield control, a few Avalons was all it took and millions of civilians were killed in one of the worst tragedys since the Itani Civilian New Energies Research Station, on the moon orbiting the gas giant of s7, frsplit the moon in pieces and killed the entire population of the planet 100 years ago. (This fracturing exposed the 2nd richest xithricite vein in the known sectors). The Ny Oslo Congress reacted to the Gotland massacre by granting emergency powers to the president. LordViking was crowned King Harold I of the Viking Hegemony and began a Reign of Terror upon those that had sought to do New Scandinavia harm. Gotland would be remembered...

Well that was fun...I was bored and I felt like writing a story...

Looks good, except can anyone say "spellcheck" or "formatting"?

eh...it was 3 AM...what do you want me to do, I wrote it right here in the forum window, my computer doesn't even have a good word processor, stupid Microsoft. I use my mac for most of my work, I just wasnt on it at the time...

Well, most of us that write stories actually write them on the computer first... then check them, then C/P them into the window. Then, we format them from there to look nice. My main problem was that there were several easily noticed spelling errors, and the story had the formatting of a .txt document you might find somewhere online. I'll run it through a word processor, and then I'll give the online formatting a whack. k?

Thank you for reformating it.. making me feel all loved and such...is this because you're still after those 599 creds I owe you and am never going to pay back?

^.^ Aye. That and the fact that it really helps make these things look better on this particular board if you attempt to format them a bit. I think a newer board format is in the works, but it's wayyyyy back on teh list of things to do.
