Imperial Era (1790 - 1920)

Revolutionary Era (1920 - 1945)

Following the rise of communism in the early 20^th century, the Zurginian Bolshevik League (now the ZSP), staged a revolution, beginning in march 1920, on Mimbles island. By July of 1920, the revolution had overthrown the Royalist Army, and removed the Emperor from office. Following widespread public support of the revolutionaries, a new government was established, with Hugo von Bwuttstein Jr as it's Administrator.

Cold War (1945 - 1991)

Following the end of the second world war, with the growing tension between the USSR and USA, Zurginia aligned itself with the Soviet Union, on grounds of shared ideology. This created tension between Zurginia and some members the ROUS.

Scientific Era (1991-present)

Following the break up of the Soviet Union between 1985 and 1991, tensions eased between Zurginia and the Realm Of Unrestricted Science, which Zurginia became a full member of in 1992, ushering in a new era of scientific discovery, and collaboration. This collaboration eventually resulted in Zurginia's first moon landing in 1998, and the subsequent moon landings throughout the late twentieth and twenty first centuries, resulting in the New Londor Moon Base. In 2006, Zurginia completed the Zurginia National Space Station, which is home to 6-12 astronauts and scientists at a time.
