Apollo

"United in strife, together in peace."

The city of Apollo was founded on August 15, 2020 by HerbDashwell and Linkipoo, two outcast refugees from a war torn civilization. At first, the city was but a humble shack built by the river Snakes Bend. The two built the Plaza District from the ground up, expanding rapidly in just a day.

History
Long before the founding of Apollo, the two leaders, HerbDashwell & Linkipoo were government officials in the Nation of Phaendal. Civil war struck the nation after an event known as The Great Divide. The two fled with what knowledge they could carry with them, and made their way into the unknown. After many months, they came upon the land of Jagdas and settled the then City-State of Apollo.

After introducing its 15th member to the city, the nation of Apollonian Accord was founded. The first incident to occur was The Apollonian-Burrownestian Border Incident (see link for info).

The town of Apollo has always taken a very neutral stance, and is yet to engage in military conflict.

Etymology
The Name Apollo is derived from the name of the Greek God of the Sun and Muses. This is in homage to the Nation of Phaendal, from which its name originated from "The Phoenix Sun."

Culture
The Apollonians are a peace-loving folk and pride themselves on expert craftsmanship and order. They don't like to travel away from home, as most of their needs are met within the city. They strive to promote cooperation and to educate others on the freedoms of religion and political discourse.
