 The History
« Thread Started on Feb 25, 2007, 11:28pm »

Having been around longer then Las Vegas itself, Cyprus City is a small town on the back roads of Nevada. It was a old town that the Indians use to own, before the pilgrims pushed them out of it. At first, Cyprus use to bring in a lot of business, as there wasn't a main highway at the time and the back roads where used a lot for wagon travel. But when the state started developing more roads and high tech cars, Cyprus sort of become a vanished city.

In 1931, Quincey Barton invested his own time and effort into rebuilding the city. Though he knew that it was never going to get as much business as its neighboring Las Vegas, since gambler was legal and all the hotels and casinos started to go up. But Quincey had a dream and that dream he was going to do.

Around the time of Quincey's death in 1974, he had left the city to his nephews, Bart and Marcus Evans, his sisters children. Quincey wanted to see his dreams come true, but he picked the wrong children to do so. The boys let the town go to rubbish again. Boarded up windows on buildings and hardly any people in the town, the boys eventually gave it over to the state. The state wanted to turn the town into the large casino in Las Vegas, though a big conflict took place.

In 1989, a couple by the names of Freda and Damon Parks, decide to by the land and turn it into their own little town. Though it took a lot of thinking and years to develop the city, the Parks were not going to give up. Turning the town into a place for people who didn't have enough money or didn't make enough money to live in Las Vegas. Being a neighbor to the hottest place in Nevada never came easy. But by the late 90's, Cyprus City had enough people living in and visiting it, to actually live this time. When the couple died, they left the town to their son, Corey Parks, who is now the Major of the city. Cyprus City has grown into quite a pleasant little town, with its one stores and clubs. It has something that Las Vegas will never have, a heart.
