First Shwiglend Empire

''This article is about the First Shwiglend Empire and its territories. For the empire that succeeded it, see the Second Shwiglend Empire.'' The Empire of Shwiglend was an empire founded by the original three Pwaygrundrs, Gwoo, Soper and Skee on July 28, 2013 on Skype as Pwaygrund. Originally it started with just the three SolarPvP administrators, soon including Arl as well. The group activity stabilized soon after the creation of Yelo, Shwiglend, when Skee finally decided to stop leaving the group.

Etymology
The Shwiglend Empire, previously known as the Sweglend Empire came from a Dolanized form of the word "swag" which grew to great prominence during 2013. During a shitfest, the three friends, soon oligarchical leaders of the Shwiglends, decided on the name "Sweglend" for their empire after it had increased influence into their first public group/city Yelo, another Dolanized word (YOLO). Afterwards, the word started becoming associated with Swagfags, the term used to describe Shwiglend's undesirables, as it became heavily used by them as an alternative to "swag". In an attempt to steer away from that, the leaders soon stuck with the now permanent name: Shwiglend.

History
The history of Shwiglend and its territories goes back to before the empire existed, back to the days on Mineserv and SolarPvP with Gwoo, Skee and Soper.

Mineserv
(gwoo n arl do this cus soper wasnt part of mineserv QQ)

TunnelPvP
Soper, also known as SuperMinerLuigi (shortened to Super), having just got Minecraft, decided to find a server to play on with his friend awesome1025. Soper and his friend found the address to TunnelPvP in late March and played together, soon meeting the server owner tunnelrat2000, better known as Skee.

After a few weeks, Arail and his friend SomTingWong raided Soper and awesome1025 after they moved from their base to another area, causing both Soper and Arail to meet formally for the first time (on hostile terms, however.)

After relocating bases some time after the raid, Soper met Gwew (now known as Gwoo) in an attempt to find his base again. How they became friends is quite obscure, but they were most likely friends before the SheepSpies Settlement in the Nether.
