New empire territory just dropped: https://freenode.net/news/on-power-to-the-people Officially become digital territory of the Joseon Empire √ 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 Joseon (also transcribed as Chosŏn, Korean: 대조선국; 大朝鮮國, lit. 'Great Joseon') was a Korean dynastic kingdom that lasted for approximately five centuries.[13] It was the last dynastic kingdom of Korea.[14] It was founded by Yi Seong-gye in July 1392 and replaced by the Korean Empire in October 1897. Kinda sounds like a regression to me. ❧ Edited by MasterOfMagic at 2021-08-11 18:34:442021-08-11 18:34 |
