The sprawling nighttime metropolis of James City
James City or the Republic of James City, is a country spanning the Bistol Seam ocean in a 'J' shape . It is the largest island in the Bistol Seam by land area and the seventh-most populous country in the world, as well as the most populous country in the Bistol Seam. It is a highly urbanized nation, with many urban centers housing over 2 million inhabitants. James City's capital and largest city is James City, which also serves as its cultural capital. The Republic of James City emerged as an independent country following the collapse of the Jamesland regime, which had governed for several decades.
The name James City comes from the Alatin word for Iacobus which means James. Iacobus also derives from an Ancient Shadistikan word meaning "the prosperous peoples land."
James City civilizations began back in 1307 A.D. when humans swam from the coast of Shadistika. Back then it was known as Iacobus. They had a 46-letter alphabet using Huyjewich characters. They wanted to have a different lifestyle apart from the Shadistikan lifestyle. Their first-ever war was “The Mighty Surge of Novae Insulae.” This war was lost by Shadistika and the point of the war was to conquer all of Novae Insulae. Iacobus was the weakest of all. The Shadistikans conquered a third of Iacobus, but the rest of Novae Insulae helped liberate it. Famous battles from the Iacobus side would be The Battle of Noewareville (52-53 AD,) Summer Siege (58-58 AD,) Blacknight Battle (58-59 AD), and the Last Liberation of Our Iacobus (61-63 AD.) The Uprising and First Fall of Blacknight, Iabobus Warrior, or The First Fall of Blacknight was an uprising that took place from 123 AD to 124 AD. The Blacknight tribe was tired of being under the iron fist of the medieval Iacobus so they successfully won because James the Fifth abdicated power. Blacknight is named Iacobus, Blacknight-Iacobus (or Blacknight for short.) Blacknight believed in the union of Novae Insulae which is the reason why Blacknight was a short-lived republic. They attacked Korridorianicopis but their reason for war was for “reunion,” even though they were never unified. The Korridors and Shadistikans too plummeted through the Blacknight offensive lines right into Blacknight’s defensive lines in their country. James the Fifth returned to power for five days right before he abdicated again due to another uprising known as The Uprising and Second Fall of Blacknight, Iacobus Warrior, or The Second Fall of Blacknight. The New Iacobus took over and became New Iacobus. New Iacobus lasted from 150 AD to 1762.In 1762 Martin James Corridor replaced King Xavier of New Iacobus as the new king. He changed his title to leader and renamed New Iacobus to Jamesland. Jamesland was modernizing fast. In 1829 the Steaming ‘29 began. The Steaming ‘29 was a major global economic boost.
Jamesland thrived off of this. They produced 6x more gold exports than any other country per day in that year! 1830 came around and the Jameslandic economy slowed down along with the world. After all of the economic hype in 1829, countries overproduced things like money, food and so much more. The overprinting of money caused bad effects to global economic powerhouse countries. For example, economicshelp.org says “Printing more money doesn't increase economic output – it only increases the amount of cash circulating in the economy. If more money is printed, consumers can demand more goods, but if firms still have the same amount of goods, they will respond by putting up prices.” This caused the world stock market to crash. The overproducing of food, and other goods, and countries thinking they had the most money in the world and they could do whatever they wanted with it caused countries to be in major debt. The 1830s was the World Decline. In 1842 the stock market turned back to normal but Jamesland was a mess. It was split between two sides of the country. The Republicists and The Unionists. The Republicists and the Unionists both fought for political gain. In 1844 a riot broke out fighting for Republic control, which would bring in a more fascist, communist, controlled country. The Unionists (Jamesland) sent in their army to attack the Republicists. This started the War of 1844. The Republicists launched major attacks on Unionist bases. A major battle from then was the Miskerwisk Battle which is when the Republicists took 57 Unionists hostage; 47 civilians, 10 soldiers. They then traded 40 civilians and 3 soldiers for their surrender. Following this, the Republicists took full control and established the People's Republic of Jamesland (Jamesland.) Jumping to modern day following the Ice Cream War conflict resulting in a James City victory.
