History
The Island of Vastarok first saw intelligent life in 3,000 BSC with the arrival of the Duckians from Northern Sparwood. Who existed in the islands east of Nieden as a local species for several thousand years, before MrClip and Rogue_Smile, two part Duckian Humans, established the town of Vastarok in, which led to a large resurgence in the Duckian Population and culture In. After living on the island from 11/17/23 to 1/21/23 the Vastarokians joined the Kartek-Fjellheim Empire as a town in Kartek.

The First Diarchy
(11/17/23-11/21/23) The First Diarchy of Vastarok was a short period of relative prosperity, with the diplomatic prowess of Diarch Rogue_smile and pvp skill of Diarch MrClip the small group flourished and turned their small 10x10 island into a castle. During the First Diarchy the Vastarokians first encountered the free City of Southland, a town who's leader had made a deal with the Kartek government to purchase the islands Vastarok was on and a few others for 100k. The Vastarokians negotiated their ownership of the island of Vastarok through non-toxicity and general assistance with defending Southland from roaming TEK raiders, who were seeking the leader of Southland Rapgawd as he was KOS in TEK

The Jungle Incident
On the 25th of November, 2023, a player named Macador, while in VC with the Minister of Recruitment Wine_maker. Called multiple of the members of Vastarok racial slurrs. This followed him live streaming himself x-raying to a public VC with multiple members of the Vastarok leadership in it as well as some citizens. This bout of slurrs led to Rogue_Smile, while on vacation in another city, calling MrClip, the head of the Milita, Wine_maker, the Minister of Recruitment, and Kostadim, the Minister of Defense online, they killed Macador twice and then chased him into an Escharian border city, where from he went to Lorent. The next day Wine_maker informed Rogue of Macador being in Lorent and Rogue contacted the Lorentish government who swiftly banned him with proof of these racial slurrs. He then fled to northern Bardonia, in which he remains to this day. Although a 13 minute video of Macador saying dozens of slurrs exists and has been provided to the Stoneworks admins nothing has as of now been done about it. This is known as the Jungle incident due to Macador planting an entire jungle of Mangrove trees in outer Vastarok after learning of the plot to remove him from the claim, kill, and report him.

The Windcliff Civil War
After a group of players led by the player Phoenix and the forementioned Macador rose up in the Lorentish town of Windcliff members of Vastarok who were dual citizens within Lorent requested Vastarokian Aid, Rogue_smile and MrClip quickly led several battles against the rebels, all of which have been decisive victories.

Culture
The Culture of Vastarok is Duckism, a culture that had been carried by Duckians around the world and eventually into Sparwood and Nieden in the islands off their coasts.
