Kingdom of Aurium

The Kingdom of Aurium (Or just Aurium) is a country founded by Beluga, Bem, Nocky and David on the 8th of June, 2021. It follows a monarchical system since the 9th of June, when Beluga was officially crowned king, founding the Kindgom of Aurium, which means "Kingdom of Gold", or "Golden Kingdom" in Latin. The country follows the faith of the Golden Shovel, and the official Pope is Nocky.

Aurium can be considered the first "nation" of the fourth server era, as forming countries/factions was forbidden until the 8th of June, when the Shovel faction controversy happened, splitting the server and ushering in a new chapter in the history of nations. The Kingdom of Aurium's roots can be traced back to the "Golden Shovel Association Community", which was a community/cult founded by Bem, Beluga and Nocky on the 8th of June, 2021. It first operated as a secret mafia, but it slowly became a commune/club dedicated to celebrating the greatness of the Golden Shovel, in which member's would wear golden boots and participate in cerimonies. David later joined them after discovering their secret base under the theater. Unfortunately, while trying to make a tunnel linking the base to David's Crackhouse, they interfered with other people's build, making the rest of the server find out about their secret "faction", and a huge controversy insued, in which there was almost a war. The members of the Golden Community were forbbiden from entering their base again, and were now a persecuted and "illegal" group, so they decided to exile themselves and migrate to build up their resistance elsewhere. After some deals with the rest of the server's players, it was decided that everyone would migrate overseas, abandoning the Server's Spawn region. Beluga, Bem, Nocky and David migrated and settled overseas on some distant plains, where they built their base and now "officially" created their nation, which was basically a commune at first, with no clear leadership or government. However, on the following day (June 9th) it was decided to crown Beluga as the "Imperator" (or king) of the nation, officially making it a Kingdom. This was also made to compete with the Kingdom of New Reno, which was established by rest of the server's players. The name "Aurium" (meaning gold, in Latin) was chosen shortly after. Currently, the country lives on.
