Brief Overview:
Somewhere in the Pacific ocean sits The Sticklands, a Continent Populated Entirely By Stickmen. Founded in 1903 by Horace Edward McStickley the 1st, this thriving Nation has become a refuge for Stickpeople from all over the world.

History of The Sticklands.
in 1903, Horace McStickley Made Landfall upon the Eastern Coast of What is Now The Sticklands. The Nomadic Stickman had left the United States to Find a New Safehaven away from the human eye to Colonize. Within 2 months, Stickville, The First Settlement, Had been Built, and boasted a population of around 273 Stick People, all having left their old lives on paper for a new life. Soon, South Stick City (which had recently been renamed Sticktropolis) was being built south of Stickville. To the North was Stickburg, a Town still in development. In 1907, Governor Horace McStickley Chartered the Stickburg Stickville & Sticktropolis Railway, with the objective of connecting its namesake cities with Stickville. It took almost a year to build first 5 mile stretch to "Horace's Landing" a small jetty where Horace's Flimsy boat Landed. could decide which way to go. In 1909, The Railroad Reached Sticktropolis, and began building North to Stickburg. Over time, more railroad lines were built, along with the founding of Graphite Motors, which makes all of the Cars used by the Stickpeople of the sticklands. The Cities of Graphite Flats, Ticonderoga, Pencilboro also rose becauseof the railroads. Today, Stickville itself no longer exists, and what little is left of the site is now a National park, which attracts thousands of visitors each year.

The Sticklands Today.
The Sticklands Is a MoCompletely Independent Nation. Because the stickpeople industrialized early, Most things used in the Sticklands are produced there. Horace McStickley The 3rd, Grandson of Horace McStickley The 1st, The Founder of the Sticklands, is the current governor. The only major conflict in the Sticklands History, The Axelheim-Sticklands War, (which wasn't really a war. More like Axelheim carrying out unprovoked attacks on the sticklands). Has lead to a New Alliance between the Mighty Codrasan Empire, which has helpd the Sticklands rebuild and also upgrade their infrastructure. There is a bright future ahead of this thriving Nation.
