History

Foundation

The Commonwealth of Faltree was founded primarily by Hunt Powell, with assistance from Connor Shaw, Asher Young, Fredrick M., Matthew Laptev, and Jonathan Gundy. The Commonwealth gains its legitimacy from the collaboration of these individuals, including the former Commander of Faltree, two Interior Ministers, and multiple government ministers. The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Faltree was written on 1 August 2023, which now constitutes the government of Faltree.
