'''City of Nemonos:''' The State of Nemonos is a state located along the western Shores of [[Lake Nemonos]] in the Midwestern United States. The state is named after its largest City, [[Nemonos City]], which is in turn named after the [[Nemon River]] which runs West-East through the state into Lake Nemonos. The population, according to the 2007 census, is 1,000,754. Nemonos is the 51st State to join the Union having been cut out of the State of Iowa in an act of Congress on Dec 1, 2007.

== History ==
+
-
=== Early times ===
+
-
Nemonos, then a part of Iowa, was a site of heavy logging during the settlement of the American Midwest in the 1800s. After most of the trees were removed attempts to farm the area were met with failure as the soil was too poor and rocky. As a result, the area returned to a forested state until urban development began in the 1950s-1960s.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
=== Settlement ===
+
-
Beginning in the 1950s suburban growth in most major American cities commenced in earnest. There were some who felt this was the wrong direction for cities to go and began a movement to build a 'better city'. This movement eventually resulted in the founding of the [[Nemonos City|City of Nemonos]] in 1960. The city was built along the shores of Lake Nemonos at the mouth of the Nemon River. This was felt to be an optimal site for both industrial expansion as well as for transportation.
+
-
 
+
-
=== Urban Expansion ===
+
-
Nemonos City grew quickly due to its prime location. The completion of the St. Lawrence Seaway to Lake Nemonos resulted in significant port related developments in the region. Major port construction began in the 1970s with the Port of Nemonos and again in the 1990s with the Port of Sunset Beach. Oil Refining became a major industry in the region during this period with the construction of the enormous [[Martinsdale Oil Refinery]].
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
=== Push for Statehood ===
+
-
Beginning around the turn of the 21st century a growing divide within the Iowa state government over the Nemonos' place. Culturally very distinct from the rest of Iowa, Nemonos, state reps frequently clashed with others for the rest of the state. In 2007 the statehood movement took to the mainstream in Nemonos and rallied the US congress to pass a bill that would cede the Nemonos-Headwaters Region from the state of Iowa and form a new independent state. The bill was passed with near unanimity on November 24th, 2007 in all levels of the US Government.
+
-
 
+
-
=== State of Nemonos ===
+
-
The first elections of the new state were held on December 1, 2007. The Democratic Party won the majority of seats in the State House of Representatives and State Senate. The capital was established as [[Fairfax, Nemonos]], then a small city in Riverton County. The government quickly established a presence and the city grew rapidly to become the 2nd most populous in the state, behind Nemonos City. Currently the state is dealing with issues ranging from uncontrolled suburban expansion of the Nemonos Metropolitan Area to electrical shortages throughout the state.
