In 1651, James Harrington wrote TheCommonwealth of Oceana. We believe the studentswho founded the Parliament of Oceana in 1768 were
influenced by this text.
Using the above text, we have created a brief historyof the nation of Oceana, stretching back to 1103.
The rest of the history we are leaving to anyinterested members, to fill in the blanks.
