We all know the crazy history of Sarasaland, but how did it start? What were the events that made the Marksons’ evil dream come true? Today, we will discuss that. I still remember studying why the Marksons were here and fighting against them.
In 1649, Christine and Sam Markson left the USA to go on a vacation. However, on their way to Australia, they found Kingdomia. They didn’t check out a lot of it, but told it to their son Jerry when they returned to America. Please note that all countries are allies of Kingdomia. I don’t know of any country that attacked it. The Marksons aren’t really representative of the USA.
Several centuries later, in 1951, a young Princess Sarasa Markson moved to the Mushroom Kingdom. Quickly growing greedy, she attacked all of the kingdoms in Kingdomia, even interrupting the Nineteen Mini-Wars. This started major protests against the Marksons. Quickly growing greedy, she even stole Johnny Anthony’s position as governor of the Mushroom Kingdom. The kingdom governor is almost as powerful as the prince or princess in Kingdomia! Things only became worse after that.
Princess Sarasa’s plan was to grow more and more powerful in the Mushroom Kingdom until she could steal at least one-fourth of their territory and make it a kingdom of her own. In 1959, she became mayor of Sajoma, a town in the Mushroom Kingdom she named after herself. (Her full name is SArasa JOnes MArkson. That’s why she named it Sajoma.) The only thing she needed to do was to expand the town by stealing other towns’ territory. After her army won the Sajoman Wars, Sajoma expanded to over 35% of the Mushroom Kingdom. Things were looking bad.
1963 was the Great Sajoman Defense War. It was a make or break for the Sajomans. If they won, they would be able to continue conquering towns and expanding. But if they lost, the Mushroom Kingdom would get the land back, and probably give it to someone more trustworthy, like what they did eventually. Despite a huge comeback by the Toads (the residents of the Mushroom Kingdom) allowing the war to be extended to 3 years, the Sajomans won the war and expanded to 50% of the Mushroom Kingdom! After some legal changes, they changed to a kingdom named Sarasaland, and you probably already know what happened next.
So now you know how Princess Sarasa Markson stole half of the Mushroom Kingdom in 1966. Thank you to her granddaughter, Daisy Jr., for helping me with this. (Daisy Jr. switched sides after losing in 1996, so we’re now allies.) By the way, I should probably tell you about her switching sides. But, that’s for next time. So, I guess, bye for now!
