Founding of the city of Aund ron de Sloog
Back at the VIR last moments, when the rage of war and the wave of destruction crossed the whole continent searching for what was left of the valdrean people. A brave man called upon by God itself guided everyone in the area towards a massive cave hidden from the horrors of the above. Now these people would spend thousands of years hidden from the surface horros, with only a few elders remembering what the surface was really like.

Shaloma creation in-game
The now called De Sloog was the first town of the young nation created by Richard_rk900 (Richard Amphed) and HadenaVision (Hadena Amphed). The city started as a mining base and hideout.

Once the Stoneworks newplayer wave took place, and the server rapidly grew on population Aund ron de Sloog became an active and productive city, with it's own constitution (that would first pass to be the National shaloman constitution, and finally to the first Viodoxan national constitution), and it's own government system with.

Annexation of Shaloma, and Tensions in Blackwater.
The city of de sloog started to have problems with a nearby city getting into its building territory. This citywas called Blackwater. Before war broke out, both the blackwater mayor and the provisional council agreed that blackwater would allow double citizenship to sloogins, and viceversa. Blackwater would have absolute power on the surface and De Sloog had absolute power on the underground. All while the provisional council had a blackwater representative.

Two weeks of the player wave passed, Sloog sent a claim update to the cartography guild in athazolant, and made its neighbors aware of its existence. Once Viodoxa spotted the nation they made a show of force at the city of De Sloog bringing 12 troops on a meeting with the provisional council.

The ruined city of De Sloog
When the moon got destroyed, the shaloman province, had to deal with a mass suicide from its citizens. This led to a forceful annexation led by Adytum into the province of shaloma. This turnned the city of de sloog into a ghost town with all its citizens fleeing. Richard Amphed not wanting to submitt to Adytum started plotting against the viodoxan government alongside the nation of Tortuga, their help, in echange of the vassalization of the province.

This conflict ended in neither party winning and the city was left to rot. Massive grieffing and scavenging for artiffacts stormed the ruins. Untill a couple decades later, Richard dem Spheniscidae the last person with sloogin ancestory, died in the ruins giving birth to his child Oliver dem Spheniscidae. His death turned him into the spiritual protector of the city, he takes care of the bast majority of the city and keeps it safe from scavengers.
