People's Socialist Republic of Albania

Often called the Albania server, the People’s Socialist Republic of Albania, is a discord server founded by Chegg in mid-2019. It could be considered somewhat of a precursor to modern GS as it was one of Chegg’s first attempts at building a new community.

History
Chegg founded the Albania server as one of her first attempts at creating a new discord community, with the server being themed around Albania. Chegg aligned the server with other socialist servers themed around eastern bloc nations, causing the server to participate in considerable drama for the few months Chegg was in charge. For instance, Conq revealed in 2022 that during his time in Albania, a discord user approached him and sent him a nuke bot, and told him that if he nuked Albania then he would be rewarded with his own, active discord server. He declined. Chegg also noted that some of the activities that she organised with the Albanian military were "account-deleting worthy".

Janina is currently the owner of the server as Chegg transferred ownership to him during February 2020 to focus on GS, while also stating that she was not interested in Albania anymore. While the Albania server was quite closely linked to GS in its early days, it eventually became increasingly unassociated with GS. By GS8, the Albania server was pretty much completely unassociated with GS.

In February of 2022, just over two and a half years after the founding of the Albania server, Janina announced that the server would be deleted within seven days, mainly due to how inactive the server had been since early 2020. This news was met largely with indifference, though Conq and Koe briefly attempted to convince Janina into changing his mind due to the server's significance.
