Public statement
WARNING: Choking Hazard! Not intended for children under the age of three. Though with careful supervision we can be most entertaining. Crews that are not afraid to PvP anything that floats will be welcome here. We are a fun-loving, free styling group with a lot of heart and a lot of colourful characters forming its ranks. If you are willing to bring your sense of humour (and bring a few thousand poe to the brawl tables), you will have a good time with us. We believe in being fair (as much as pirates *can* be fair) and love to play the game. CAUTION: May Contain Nuts.
History
It was originally founded on the retired Viridian Ocean in August 2005 by Bluetoes of the crew Duplo. The flag was a little acorn. However, little acorns could be a choking hazard. The flag went dormant during the time the Viridian Ocean was active and had no monarch, royalty nor titled members.
Through September 2005, Choking Hazard was the smallest flag with Noted fame on Viridian. On September 21st, they rose to being the smallest (with 39 active members) flag with Established fame.
Monarchy history
- Bluetoes (Aug 19, 2005 - ~Feb 13, 2006)

Ansel blockade
In February 2006 they unsuccessfully fought in the first blockade of Ansel Island. After the blockade Nowie was raised to monarch of the flag.
Post-Ansel
Under Nowie the flag grew in size and moved away from the original style of dictatorship and war, being ruled by royalty from several crews and Duplo left to form a smaller flag with a more war-like nature. After Hunter opened, several key members of the flag moved away from Viridian. The remaining crews merged into Morrowind and Choking Hazard was given back to Duplo to return to its war-like, dictatorial origins.
