===Early History===
===Formation===
The [[Paris Hole]] and the [[Mac House]] is the oldest builds in Paris. They were both constructed by [[44cckw]] before making the server public. However, 44cckw would eventually move out of what is today Paris in early March 2022, due to [[Mope222]] constructing [[his house|Mope222's House]] in the area. [[Norbert011]] would set up base in the area, while [[FinC121]] and 44cckw decided to found the city of [[Oak Hills]] on the other side of the water. The territory which encompassed what is today Paris, would be integrated into Oak Hills as Harbor Department in mid-late March. [[raddicted]], who would later become an important part in the Paris' struggle for independence, would join the server on 13 March 2022.

===Secession===
===Parisian Nationalism Grows===
The name Paris was first used for the region by raddicted on 1 April 2022. raddicted wanted to name this region of Oak Hills that. This would be solidified later that month, when raddicted began to refer to the area as Paris, instead of Oak Hills. This nationalism and new identity soon grew larger, and many more players on the server such as [[Tsar_Boris]] and Norbert would begin to follow. Builds in Paris would also expand during this period, and the region would experience a boost.

Due to the ever growing Parisian nationalism that started in April, 44cckw felt that he needed to do something before things could possibly get out of hand. Paris had always been formally part of Oak Hills under the Harbor department, but the territory had begun to act more as an de-facto independent entity. The situation had reached its melting point in August 2022, and an agreement was settled between delegates from Oak Hills and Paris that same month. The Harbor department was officially disbanded on 28 August 2022, and Paris peacefully seceded from Oak Hills, officially becoming an sovereign entity. Norbert and raddicted officially became the dual leaders of Paris.
===Secession of Paris===

Due to the ever growing Parisian nationalism that started in April, 44cckw felt that he needed to do something. Paris had always been semi-formally part of Oak Hills under the Harbor Department, but the territory acted more as an independent entity. The pot had reached its melting point in August, and 44cckw needed to solve this issue fast, otherwise it could lead to a civil war. Fortunately, and agreement between Paris and Oak Hills was reached in August. The Harbor Department officially disbanded on 28 August 2022, and Paris peacefully seceded from Oak Hills.

History[edit]

Formation[edit]

Norbert011 would set up base in the area, while FinsCon and 44cckw decided to found the city of Oak Hills on the other side of the water. The territory which encompassed what is today Paris, would be integrated into Oak Hills as Harbor Department in mid-late March. raddicted, who would later become an important part in the Paris' struggle for independence, would join the server on 13 March 2022.

On 25 March 2022, a diamond block would be stolen from the Mac House Church. The thief was never identified, since many players at the time had duped diamonds on them from the Dupe War. The thief was suspected to be Hola2.

Birch Hills[edit]

Overview of Paris during the Birch Hill period. This image was taken from a world download.

During late March 2022, birch trees would be planted all across Paris. This was supposed to be in contrast of Oak Hills; a yin and yang. The birch trees would be chopped down some time in late April-early May.

Secession[edit]

The name Paris was first used for the region by raddicted on 1 April 2022. The usage of this name would later be solidified the same month, when raddicted began to refer to the area as simply Paris, instead of the Harbor department or Oak Hills. This nationalism and new identity quickly grew larger, and many more players on the server such as Tsar_Boris and Norbert would also begin to take this name into use. Builds in Paris would also expand during this period, and the region would experience a boost in popularity and prosperity.

Due to the ever growing Parisian nationalism that started in April, 44cckw felt that he needed to do something before things could possibly get out of hand. Paris had always been formally part of Oak Hills under the Harbor department, but the territory had begun to act more as an de-facto independent entity. The situation had reached its melting point in August 2022, and an agreement was settled between delegates from Oak Hills and Paris that same month.
