Beloved Citizen!
I've just spent the last few hours doing my best to recollect the past year of Natopian history. As interesting as it was cross-refercing posts in the Palace, Pub, and MNN to get the stories as accurate as I could, perhaps we need an official historian?
Anyway, it seems as in Natopia Days past, my speech has simply recounted the history of Natopia. It is a unique history, first existing offline, then both on and offline, and now primarily online. Our first two or three years of history are relatively uneventful and quite peaceful in retrospect. However, as I was writing out the history for the updated Wiki article, I'm very proud of how far Natopia has come this past year. I know I've worried and worried that none of you really cared that much about Natopia, and I threatened to shut it down or annex it away... But those were selfish demands, as I now know that Natopia no more belongs to just me. I'm not the only one with its welfare in mind. I may be it's creator and leader, but it belongs to all of us equally, and we all care for it as has been greatly demonstrated these past few months as Natopia has gone from a great slump ending in May and rising beyond any of my expectations.
Thank you Natopians! Thank you for making this YOUR COUNTRY! ;D
And in true Natopia Day Speech fashion, here is our updated history:
