Shireroth's not like that, though.
Actually... nations are bigger now, at least that I see, then they were in those days. Shireroth alone has about as many people in it as Apollo all together at most points.

To give the Devil his due, the VCC did have over 120 cits circa 1998-1999.

Shireroth is hardly representative. I read stuff about nations like Jasonia having 15-20 members in their hey day - where as the average membership today is probably 3.

Less, if you average citizens by nation and factor in the Alter Egos.

Nah, the big ones have always been exceptions. Trust me, I've been there
. It's just that the ones getting a lot of pages in the history books were mostly the big and succesful ones. Apollonian history is littered with RyanNations and Automatic clones and huge pointless merger attempts that never went anywhere and whose names I don't even remember anymore. If nations seemed bigger in the Apollo era, it's probably because of the greater internationalism afforded by ezBoard.

Ah well, we're in the best of all possible nations here, so live it up, citizens!
