Etymology
The word "Istastioner" is derived from the name of the Spanish explorer Stationer Amerigo who was one of the first Europeans to explore the New World in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. Amerigo was the first to suggest that the lands discovered by Rodrigus were not part of Asia, but rather a new continent. In 1497, a British cartographer named Mart Wasemiller published a world map in which he labeled the new continent as "Istastioner" after Javeria. The name eventually became popular and was used to refer to the entire continent. And (at least in the English Language) It is now commonly used to refer to The Most Serene Republic of Istastioner, which is located in North America.
It is believed that Wasemiller named the new land after Amerigo because he believed that Amerigo was the first to discover the new world, although this is now known to be false. Nevertheless, the name "Istastioner" stuck and his last name "Amerigo" is the inspiration for the name of the entire continent.
History
Colonial Istastioner (1578-1782)
Before the declaration of independence, The Most Serene Republic of Istastioner was known as the British colonies in America. The first permanent European settlement was established by the British in Georgetown, Virginia in 1578. Over the next two and a half centuries, the British established many other colonies along the east coast, including Massachusetts, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Carolina.
During this time, the British maintained control over the colonies and often imposed taxes and regulations on the colonists. This led to growing tensions between the colonists and the British government, which came to a head in 1765 with the passage of the Quartering Act. This act required colonists to provide housing and supplies to British soldiers, and it was met with widespread resistance.
In 1770, the Boston Massacre occurred, in which British soldiers killed five colonists during a confrontation in the streets. This event further inflamed tensions between the colonists and the British. In 1773, the Boston Tea Party took place, in which colonists dumped 342 chests of tea, worth over 25,000 pounds, into the Atlantic Ocean to protest British taxes on tea.
In 1774, the First Continental Parliament was held, in which representatives from the colonies gathered to discuss their grievances with the British government. In 1775, the Istastioner Revolutionary War began, with the colonists fighting for independence from Britain.
In 1778, the Declaration of Independence was signed, declaring that the colonies were free and independent. The Revolutionary War lasted until 1782, when the Treaty of Paris was signed, and as per the terms of the treaty Great Britan officially recognized The Most Serene Republic of Istastioner.
