History

Early times

It is said, but not proved that Liberty Islands was first discovered by the nordic vikings, while they went out on a discovering trip from the British Isles. Due to the proximity of the islands from the closest large landmass, most of the historians and archeologist believe that vikings weren't even able to travel that far on very open seas. Supporting the later mentioned theory no proved viking remains were found.

Until the exploration of America, no signs were recorded by traders or sails that they discovered the islands. After the European powers started regular Transatlantic ship routes there are records of a mysterious green land that sailors saw on the Atlantic while they were in the middle of the Atlantic. Liberty Islands slowly bacame a legend among sailors and traders. Legend because no one could register the exact location of the islands, and sometimes they couldn't even saw it due to the stormy or foggy weather. The another reasone why didn't any of the crew of those ships didn't discover this islands is that Liberty Islands didn't have any seagull population that could show clear signs of existing lands. Because of this, the exploration of the islands was accidental.

Exploration

The Austrian Empire rarely sent any ships to the Atlantic, as it costed too much travelling from the Adriatic Sea to the Mediterranean and to the Atlantic. Maria Theresa, the Empress of Austria decided help her ally and send troops by sea to North America where the French and Indian War were happening. This was during the Seven Years' War. The British Empire were informed about this and prepared to stop the Austrian ships at the Strait of Giblaltar, but they were late and couldn't catch the ships, then they followed them on the shores of Spain and on the middle of the Atlantic, but could catch up to fight them over. While this race the Austrian ships had to go norther and norhther (due to the actual course of the wind). During a tough storm the Austrian ships had the chance to escape their chasers and the British captains didn't risk to go after them. While the storm, the Austrian ships accidentally explored the Liberty Islands. 3 of the ships had sunk during the storm, but the 2 survivor could anchor at the shores of the islands and the Hungarian troops (the shores of Adriatic Sea was part of Croatia and by this, part of Hungary; so the Austrian navy basicly consisted of newly conscripted Hungarians) on the Austrian ships landed on the islands and they become the first men to see the islands. They were able to keep their secret as the British tought all of the 5 ships went under and discontinoued their efforts to catch the Austrian ships. Months later the new inhabitants of the the islands sent back one of the ships with the news, they luckly landed in France and could go back to the Austrian Empire to tell the great news. The Empress and the government didn't belive the stories, but a few of her Hungarian advisors finally had her promise to send more ships with Hungarian crew to the islands. The few dozen of the sailors and troops that were left on the islands survived until the new ships arrived. After more and more people recieved news about this, the British, the French, and the Dutch also sent forces to the Liberty Islands.
