Genesis
On the 7th of March 2018, Aaron Penyami during a school re-test, had a sudden thought of starting a micronation for a friend group he participated in. Considering how territorial his friend group was, he decided to form a new micronation under the name of "United States of Sapu Lidi". Though the friend group never bothered to accept the proposal, the micronation eventually was left inactive for a period of time, until a week later. On the 14th of March 2018, Aaron proposed a micronation for his friend whom shared a common interest with history and geography. Due to his obsession with Russia, the micronation, which was Beruise-Indnesia, had a strong influence of slavic culture. He would eventually do the same with other friends, leading to the formation of the Stradan sector, which lead to a revival of his week old micronation.
Generally, activity of early Stradan-Micronationalism was moderate, more focused on nationalist culture (anthems, flags, etc.), millitary activity, and 'governmental' activity (having a leader, and divisions such as states and provinces). Despite this, the United Indonesian States lacked activity, due to Aaron's focus on assisting Daniel on developing Beruise-Indonesia. Minor activities in the United Indonesian States though happened, through the establishment of the Stradan Area Alliance (post an incident of invading individuals) and the Stradan 2018 Flags referendum.
On the 5th of April, 2018, A declaration of Independence was held by Aaron, to formally declare the United Indonesian States, though it was considered unneeded, due to the already existing document declaring its existence.
Unionist Era
United Indonesian States
On the 15th of August, 2018, Aaron had his broken updated phone back, giving him the opportunity for a more faster connection, leading up to better productivity. Aaron used this to his advantage for Micronational activities, reviving activites in the United Indonesian States. UIS eventually participated in online micronational communities, through Instagram, and an AminoApp community titled Micronation Hub. This lead to a surge in activity as UIS was more connected with communities, and recieved more recognition, along with better structuring, ideas, and other activites.
In the Strada Area of the UIS, relations between nations stayed moderate, as UIS gains more activity, relations strengthened among micronations, with many activities such as "chilling together" in micronational territory, formation of alliances, and even a conference held to show off nations' acomplsiments
2018 Stradan Diplomatic Tensions
On the 23rd of April, 2018, Beruise-Indonesia had a sudden dissolvation, declared by Daniel, to be succeeded by the Republic of Ruslandia. Ruslandia's policies had been rendered as controversial, especially to the UIS, due to alleged plagiarism from the UIS by Ruslandians, and illegitimate claims of territories. Tensions grew as on the next day, the treaty of Hallaway was signed by Ruslandia, Tanagogo, and the Sundan Republic, which claimed huge chunks of UIS territory due to their "lack of owned land". The controversial decision was deemed "illegitimate" and "illegal", leading up to the Ruslandian War, which lead to the UIS expansion to secure land outside of Strada.
Tensions calmed down on the 1st of May, after some territories had been returned to the UIS. Though there was constant suspicion and skepticism between the UIS and Ruslandia, while MUA (Multi Use Agency) agents of the UIS performed constant spying upon Ruslandians. Tensions grew once more as Ruslandia claimed the flag of Liberland as their national flag, and shortly followed by a declaration of a Communist Republic. Daniel toppled UIS' status as the head of the IATO, provoking another battle between Ruslandia and the UIS, which wa shortly ended due to blackmail.
United Southeast Asian States
On May 11, 2018, The Southeast Asian Republic (SEAR) joined the UIS with two new states, Tatton and Avernesia, which both are located in the Philippines. The following decision made the change of the name from the United Indonesian States to the Southeast Asian States.
Post-Ruslandian war, relations among the UIS and Ruslandia had toned down, building a strong friendship between the two nations. Tensions between the UIS and the rest of the Stradan Community had also eventually calmed down, as cooperation and restructuring tooked place. Tensions though grew once more between the Stradan Community against the nation of Libernia, due to the desire of millitary conflict, and 'for fun', which lead to a brief conflict between Libernia and the entirety of the Stradan Alliance, including the UIS.
Summer period
As summer 2018 came, the SAA was dissolved in the 2nd Mirlandia Treaty due to the coming possible inactivity due to the Summer vacation period, as signed by all nations of the SAA. The signing of the treaty was eventually discovered by non-micronationalists, leading to embarrassment, and more micronationalists focused on the issue on maintaining "National Security" (as in security from the notice of non-micronationalists.
A major conflict occured on the 12th of June, between the majority of Stradan nations along with Micronation Hub against a the Fascist State of Sakuranomiya, after their declaration of war against 'all micronations'. The millitary conflict was followed by a series of millitary conflicts against Sakuranomiya between the majority of the Micronational community, through USAS-led interventions, along with interventions in the Libernian Civil War.
Most occuring activities during the Summer of 2018 in the USAS besides conflicts were mainly on developing 'nationalist culture' (as in Flags, nations, constitutions, and governments), along with the development of small projects, such as the physical creation of the USAS flag. There was also a brief union between the USAS, Seveiria, and a micronation in Wales.
After the Summer of 2018 ended, a surge in physical activity reoccurred in strada with the return to school activity, starting with the formal presidential inauguration, and the first session of the USAS Senate, a more structured government, with main goals of developing the nation, and proclaiming victory in the conflict against Sakuranomiya. It is also in this era, where Stradan micronationalism had a growth in the amoung of citizens, as more citizens joined the USAS, increasing contribution to Stradan micronationalism.
Throughout August 2018, considerations appeared among the citizens of the USAS, questioning USAS' structuring and activity. Many considerations of the people led up to the conclusion that the USAS was 'messy' and must have a reform. The following conclusion lead to the planned dissolvation of the United Southeast Asian States, and a formation of a new committee to discuss the successor of the USAS.
Pejatenian Era
On the 31st of August 2018, Members of the Pejatenian Committee declared the formation of the Republic of Pejaten after days of discussion regarding Pejaten's structuring. The declaration was followed by a threat posed by the State of Sakuranomiya, which fell into silence after the declaration for the following months.
Golden period
Throughout September and October, activity among Stradan micronationalists, especially Pejatenians, had a moderate increase, as more new Micronationalists joined the activities. Though micronational activites in Pejaten mainly focused on activities continued from former periods, such as the development of 'nationalist culture', through the designing of currencies, flags, anthems, and territorial activities (claiming lands, the creation of maps), the activities were balanced with activities and achievements that was considered new, such as a flag ceremonies, collaborative inspections of territories, assistance of other new micronations, Micronational Olympics, Sigining of a new constitution, and many other activites, as more new citizens joined Pejaten. This period of the era was considered to be the 'Golden Age' of Strdan micronationalism, as there was constant activity and productivity once had by Pejatenians and Stradan micronationalists.
Wartime period
Around October 2018, the State of Sakuranomiya returned to the Micronational attention after redeclaring war on every single micronation. Pejaten responded the declaration with millitary action against Sakuranomiya, along with the help of old allies from the Stradan sector, such as the Ruslandian Empire Adiwiyata, and new Allies from within and outside of Strada, such as Concordia, Valešia, Andersonia, and Litania.
The war generated a surge in activity, as every Stradan micronationalist participated in the war in hopes of defeating Sakuranomiya. Tensions grew more as Sakuranomiya attacked nations in the Stradan sector, which eventually was ended with the collaborative invasion of Sakuranomiya (Operation Altenbürg).
Classical period
Pejaten developed a post-war culture after the end of the Second Sakuranomiyan Conflict, as more micronationalists condemned Sakuranomiya. It was also followed by an Increase of productivity, acomplishments, and citizens.
Throughout Late-2018, there was a moderate decline in Pejatenian activity. Throughout strada, micronationalist activity was highly dependent on the direction of leaders, and due to Aaron's late-2019 leaning towards Ruslandian activity, activity in Pejaten had a moderate decline until around early-2019.
In early 2019, Pejaten had a returning increase in activity, mainly in the development of culture and media. The increase in 'cultural' activities increased throughout the development of the conlang, Stradan, which was meant to be used as the Auxillary language, and the national language of Strada and Pejaten. Besides linguistics, there was a rise in culinary culture, along with media too to facilitate the use of Stradan.
Pejaten along with Stradan micronationalists had a decline of activity throughout March and April 2019 due to the upcoming Indonesian national exams, and the coming graduation of Stradan micronationalists. This lead to a transfer of power from the republic to the commonwealth in Pejaten. Activity in Pejaten remained moderate throughout the months during the preparation for the exams.
Before the exams took place, Indonesia had an upcoming General Election, the election lead to the announcement of a General Election taking place in Pejaten, as an attempt to 'copy' activities of a nation. The first election lead to the rise of early Pejatenian politics, though was considered moderate throughout it's early days, as most candidates are not much active in political knowledge and visions. After the exam, another election took place for parliament (Riksdag). The election was more active in political affairs, leading to Stradan political philosophical development, starting the common divide between Conservatives, Leftists, and Greens among Stradan politics. After the election, Pejaten had development focused on restructuring and the creation of law.
Throughout the preparation of the election, many citizens had developed the tradition of coming to one's house for micronational activities due to . This lead to the increase in micronational activites, mainly in Pejaten, with the development culture and more structuring, and other activites 0done by micronationalists at the time.
During the summer of 2019, many Stradan micronationalists gratuated and had moved schools away. The graduation lead to a period of inactivity in Pejaten and Stradan micronationalism. Though moderate activity appeared every once in awhile, mainly with the house visiting tradition continued, though was not as strong as it was in former periods, especially in Achievement.
