6.) Pearson Wright - First person to successfully rebel against the Co. Empire and win. I.E. - Freedom Empire and - Freedom Empire -.

7.) Francis Bluehawk - Created the legendary Francis Brigade and assisted Pearson Wright in the war against EITC.

2010 RP:

1.) Captain Leon - Reunited the EITC after many believed Pearson Wright and Francis Bluehawk had ended it for good. Got rid of Macmorgan's ideas of a "republic" within the EITC and assumed absolute control, hence beginning a long line of new corrupt EITC faction leaders.

2.) Pearson Wright - Beat the living (HUH?) out of Captain Leon for a year straight with the LEGENDARY Caribbean Rangers. Also defeated Francis Brigade ending Bluehawk's military career for good.

3.) Francis Bluehawk - Originally assisted in bringing down Leon, but ended up getting in a war with Spain as well in which he ended up losing, and out of rage, left his own guild, leaving France defenseless and in disarray. France never recovered after Bluehawk left.

4.) Duchess of Anemois - Became the most powerful woman in RP after she married Pearson Wright, which gave her partial control over Spain, France, Russia, and most of Italy.

5.) Hernandez - Powerful Pro-Spanish EITC faction leader of "Royale Co. Elite" that strongly opposed Leon's plans to unify the EITC under a single dictatorship banner.

6.) David Bladekidd - Created a short-lived but fairly powerful empire - (The Codex Empire), which, had it lasted longer, could have potentially altered the course of RP for good. - (Was destroyed by Pearson).

7.) Cad Bane - Semi-powerful Pro-British EITC faction leader of "Co. Republic" that also opposed Leon's plans to unify the EITC under a single dictatorship banner.

2011 RP:

1.) Pearson Wright - Changed the course of RP in 2011 with guilds like The Delta Empire, La Casa De Espana, and The Paradox which consumed thousands of people, particularly during The Paradoxian War.

2.) Samuel Redbeard - After being elected by the EITC board of directors after Leon was finally defeated, Redbeard proved to be the only man who would not accept surrender to Spain during The Paradoxian War. (The King of Britain surrendered; Redbeard did not.)

3.) Hippie - Brought into RP by Pearson. Hippie/Augustine Clemente, along with people such as Spade, and Roger Goldhawk, introduced "jumping" to RP'ers, universalizing how RP worked.

4.) Johnny Goldtimbers - The Iron First of the British Empire during The Paradoxian War, Goldtimbers (although surrendered), proved a very useful Prime Minister for GB during The Paradoxian War.

5.) John Breasly - The King of GB. Didn't really do much game-wise, but ranted on the wiki enough to make Pearson look so bad that he had just enough enemies to be able to conquer anything and everything except GB.

6.) Spade - Leader of The Spanish Ranger division during The Paradoxian War. Legendary Spanish svs'er and pvp'er.

7.) William Sharkskull - Leader of The Spanish Navy during The Paradoxian War. Legendary Spanish svs'er.

2012 RP:

1.) Pearson Wright - Continued to max out guilds after The Paradoxian War, and maintained The Spanish Empire during the Post-Paradoxian War.

2.) John Breasly - Made the bold move of declaring war on Spain shortly after he had lost to Pearson in the Paradoxian War, but emerged victorious in The Post-Paradoxian War.

3.) Johnny Goldtimbers - (Mentioned above)

4.) Lord Hector Wildhayes - After being elected Pope, Wildhayes began to rally supporters to Pearson's cause with God as a justification. This was very effective. :) Debateable In This Community's Own Formed Opinion

5.) Hippie - Assisted Pearson in preventing the British from taking back all of the lands that Spain had acquired during The Paradoxian War.

6.) Jarod Pillagebain - Created the short-lived but powerful OUTLAWS which, with the combined strength of The EITC, The British Navy, and practically, the rest of the planet, overwhelmed Spain in The Post-Paradoxian War.

7.) Sven Daggersteel - Proved a very inspirational and talented British admiral (Spanish turncoat) during The Post-Paradoxian War.

2013 RP:

Sucked

I don't necessarily agree with EVERY person on this list from the stories I have been preached by both sides of the RP spectrum and by the stories told unbiasedly. But there are surely some that should be mentioned. Those are my "two cents" on your two cents if you dont mind me saying so.
