History

On 21 June 2021, Ezekiel Ensor founded the Serene Canton of Radnia in their bedroom. Not much was decided or developed, and there was not even a name for the country yet. The next day, they spent hours out of the morning developing the country. Originally an isolationist state, not a lot of progress was made toward the development of the nation for several days. On the 25 June, the City of Bydgoszcz was claimed via email to the Polish MFA (this claim has since been renounced). An announcement of this was made to the Microwiki discord, mostly for kicks. On the 26, at the urging of the Vice Chair, the whole of San Carlos Park was claimed. Then the Emperor of Kopernik was amused at the claim of Bydgoszcz, being Polish. he DM'd Ensor about it, admiring his bravery. After a few days of socialising, the Socialist Federal Republic of Kopernik and Radnia decided to found the EAMA.

On 20 July 2021, following the dissolution of the enemy nation Hellerk it was decided that the lands previously owned by the nation would be split between Radnia and the ally The Republic of Alabamia. On 1 August 2021, Radnia withdrew from the EAMA and returned to isolationism due to increasing edginess and hypocrisy from what previously was a close ally, Kopernik. This was uncoincidentally the same day Kopernik converted to Fascism.

The Senate of Radnia was formally organized on September 13, 2021.

From January 16, 2022, a major restructuring to the Canton had gone underway, taking a more serious and realistic approach to micronationalism, more than just as entertainment. This begun by removing unnecessary or excess from the canton, such as useless claims of land, potentially harmful opinions on certain matters, and generally unprofessional things. This developed into the Serene Canton of Shulinguo, Radnia's successor state.
