History

On April 12, 1873 was enacted Supreme Resolution which raises the Municipal Agency Nepeña to the category of Nepeña District. On November 22, 1874 the first municipal council is installed, investing as Mayor to Mr. Juan Rodríguez; as Deputy Mayor, Mr. Esteban Naveda; as councilor, Mr. Manuel Márquez Paredes; as auditors, Messrs Teodorico Terry and José María Cabrera. However, it is known that in the political system of the Geographical Society of Lima, Nepeña appears as district, founded by the Protector of Peru José de San Martín, on February 12, 1821. It has been established as a commemorative date of political creation of Nepeña district on April 12 of each year, carrying out a ceremony at the District Municipality.

gollark: For example, page names are finally not the only thing they can be addressed by. Pages have IDs and can have multiple names. They are matched case insensitively.
gollark: 7.1 is very elegant, I think, and finally fixes a lot of issues. It also introduces cool new ones.
gollark: Minoteaur 1 is the original JS implementation with server rendering and selfreplicators. 2 is a Rust thing which was meant to be client rendered and did not really happen. 3 and 4 are variants of a more TiddlyWiki-inspired design or something. 5 is a server rendered Rust one which doesn't work well. 6 is a server rendered Nim one which works badly in different ways. 7 is Python and 7.1 is Python with a different architecture.
gollark: I forgot the exact ordering, but 2 is on my disk somewhere, 3 and 4 are very similar and also there, and 5 is on my disk somewhere.
gollark: Minoteaur 1 and 6 are publicly available.
