I am fairly certain that my region, The Imperium of Might, was founded on the 12th of January 2003. So, aside from the starter regions (North Pacific, etc.), can anyone say they have an older region than mine?

I'm sure there were older regions, I just don't know if any of them have survived. Come on, you lot, if you don't reply soon I shall have no choice but to gloat about being the Founder of the OFFICIAL Oldest Region in the World!!!(tm).

P.s. This is my 100th post! Yay! *Quiet jubilation*

Without thinking too hard (it is Monday after all) The Citizens Defence Alliance was around before you.

Yep, the USSR (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_region/region=ussr) was born around that time (Dec 17th, 2002)

History

Pre-USSR

On Nov 26th I created the nation "Deutschland" and on Nov 28th, 2002 the region "Germany (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_region/region=germany)." This was a failed attempt at my first region. Few members, and all nazis lead to my downfall as leader. On Dec 17th, 2002 a few like-minded people gathered together to form "RedCommunist (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_nation/nation=redcommunist)" and create the Empire of the "USSR (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_region/region=ussr)".

The Rise of the USSR

In the start it was tough, still only a few people; but that was changing. The USSR was the first region made mainly for players of the game SuperPower. Over a few days weeks the population of the USSR grew from 1 to 30. I forget the exact date, Dec 25th I think about 5 USSRian's left and formed North Alerica (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=display_region/region=north_alerica)...

I believe the New Meritocracy dates back to January 2003 (they may have been located in Meritocratic Isles at the time), and the Heartland to December 2002.

Kandarin is correct. The Heartland region was first colonized on December 30, 2002.

Europe region is older than we are....
