[edit] History
Fishyguy began NationStates in August of 2005. After glancing through a few regions, he joined the region of The Whissssssscat Islands, and was soon involved in the region's government. His willingness to debate other members on the regional message board led to the creation of a regional forum. Although at one time The Whissssssscat Islands was home to over 100 nations, the loss of its founder and most government members led to a large and rapid decline. The forum fell into disuse, and all but a few members ceased to exist. The region had also been home to nations such as Julio Trigman, and other future members of Liberalia. Unbeknownst of these nations' significance, Fishyguy would also become a member of Liberalia.
In November of 2005, Fishyguy was invited to join a region called Roman Empire. There he participated in the region's Senate and military. He was appointed military leader for the region, and successfully organized and carried out several military take-overs of other larger regions. This practice, known as invading, has become much more difficult following the introduction of regional influence to NationStates. These regions would later be returned to a native delegate in return for allegiance to Roman Empire. In this way, Fishyguy helped expand the region's influence and membership, while offering protection from more destructive region griefing groups.
Fishyguy was unexpectantly forced to leave NationStates in early February 2006, due to unforseen personal problems at home, school, and work. His nation ceased to exist, and consequently, Roman Empire experienced a serious downturn in activity.
In June of 2006, Fishyguy resurrected his nation. Although invited to return to Roman Empire, he knew that invading would never again be the same, and he would have to end his days as military coordinator.
