History:

The Parliamentary Republic of Roumeli (formerly Roanoke Island) was founded in 2009 after a group of Greecian pilgrims set sail for the uninhabited island. They were hungry for a land of their own that they could run and control, and over a period of about a year, more and more citizens from around the Mediterranean have flocked to this small, once-remote island.

In late 2009, then Roanoke Island joined the Alliance of Independent Nations. They remained a member for over a year, before they abruptly left for the Confederacy of Free Regions, changing their name to Roumeli Island in the process.

Civil disruptions started to break out in late November and early December in the small island nation. There was a newly elected government official, Stefen Agostopolous, who wanted to change the way the island operated. He wanted it to turn into a big, booming business island. He ordered all citizens to abolish their traditions and adapt this new way of living. The citizens were scared that they would have to abandon traditional customs, and be a part of the industrialization of Roumeli.

For the first part of December, 90% of the citizens in Roumeli boycotted working at the new manufacturing plants around Roumeli. The rebellion was just starting. For the next week, rebels attacked the then-capital-city of Newport, finally taking it over and burning it to the ground on December 14, 2010. Head-of-state Stefen Agostopolous was exiled on the small Greecian island of Crete on December 15, 2010, and he remains there today. The new head-of-state, Nicholas Stavrohakos, was one of the main leaders of the rebellion, and was chosen by his comrades to be the next head-of-state. On December 17, 2010, Roumeli left the Confederacy of Free Regions, changing their name to the Parliamentary Republic of Roumeli. They are currently rebuilding their nation to look more Mediterranean-styled. As of now, the styles are all over the place. Later that day on December 17, 2010, the Parliamentary Republic of Roumeli applied one again to the Alliance of Independent Nations, hoping to get the old ideals back in their nation, and have life the way it used to be.

History is still being written for Roumeli, right as we speak, with your vote.
