Ameranta is an historical region of NationStates, originally founded by IMDbers in March 2005. It is also known as the historical home of prominent UN/WA members like Omigodtheykilledkenny and Cobdenia. The region had died out by the end of the year.
However, it still boasts an important backstory in Kennyite history, being the ancient homeland the Xtapolopaqetl natives, and where various missionary peoples visited until the Kennyites' arrival somewhere around the late 1700s. Ameranta was reputed to be a green and pleasant continent with thick, luscious forests and beautiful sandy beaches. It was also supposed to be peaceful -- although the violence of the Xtaps sort of canceled out that aspect of the colonial world. If Ameranta loosely resembled the American continental landmass, then Cobdenia would be located roughly where Bermuda is, and Omigodtheykilledkenny where Mexico is.
Most of the continent was wiped out by a seismic catastrophe in mid-2005, and although Cobdenia was spared (partly because it's an island hundreds of miles off the coast, partly because it's located 75 years in the past), the Kennyites had to escape to a new refuge in Antarctic Oasis. There still exists a small Kennyite colony in the Southern Hemisphere relatively close to the Antarctic, and the nation of Aundotutunagir, close to an NS parallel of Tierra del Fuego. All remaining nations are politically aligned with Antarctic Oasis.
