I, Minister of Defense of the Old Atlantic, am proud to announce the existence of Old Atlantic Charter in Cybernations: Standard Edition. Two round ago in Cybernations: Tournament Edition, 5 real life friends decided to create an alliance to kick $@! and have fun. Since then we've had some ups and downs, including the loss of our founding Supreme Overlord. However we are determined to stand strong and grow to be the best alliance we can through Loyalty, Bravery, and Intelligence.
