History of the State of San Andreas

Located in the southwestern modern United States, the island of San Andreas was discovered by the Spanish Empire in the late 1570s during commissioned explorations of the western coastline of the American continent. By the mid 1700s, permanent colonies had been established on the island. By 1781, the city of Los Santos was founded from the island's pueblos and missions.

In 1821, when Mexico was granted independence from Spain, the San Andreas colonies were largely ignored as a remote island in the Pacific Ocean. In 1823, Blaine County was established. During this period, many Anglo-American settlers established themselves on the island. By 1846, the English-speaking population on the island rivaled that of the Mexican inhabitants.

In 1846, the English-speaking inhabitants rebelled against the Mexican government in the Beaver Flag Revolt. This established the San Andreas Republic. The flag used during the revolt continues to serve as the flag of the State of San Andreas today. The Beaver Flag rebels were shortly thereafter joined by American soldiers who would take control of the island. At the conclusion of the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), the San Andreas Republic was ceded to the United States alongside half of Mexican territory. 

Three years later, the San Andreas Republic joined the Union as the State of San Andreas on 20 February 1851. On that same day, the Constitution of the State of San Andreas was assented by the Governor of San Andreas, Samuel Griffin. The State of San Andreas is the 31st state to enter the Union.
