== History ==
At the north end of the central field of rocks, the inscription reads, "This island were fashioned by [[Waterbug]]."

Before the Ice wipe of 19 February 2005, [[The Pioneers]] controlled Fort Royal.

Fort Royal was previously inhabited.  When the [[Ringer]]s decided the player base on Ice was too small to support three colonized islands, all players were re-homed to Shatterstone.  It was re-opened on 4 September 2005, when [[Cold Fusion]] took control in a three-round event [[blockade]].  

[[Ice Cream]] gained control of Fort Royal on 4 August 2007 in the first rotating event blockade. The blockade was unusual in that it was a two-round sinking event. The island was successfully defended on 6 October 2007 in a non-sinking three-round blockade. The event ended in a 1-1-1 tie with [[Through the Tides]] and [[Wink Wink Nudge Nudge]]. As the defenders, however, Ice Cream retained control over the island since no flag won a majority of the rounds.

2007-12-01, [[Ice Wars]] attacked Fort Royal and took it in three rounds.

2008-02-02 [[Never say Never]] attacked Fort Royal and took it in two rounds. With the final score being 3-0. It was a very close blockade between Ice Wars and Never Say Never with the 2nd round having only a few points in between it.

2008-12-06 [[The Golden Lion]] attacked and took it in 2 rounds. Final score being 2-1. Again a close call. 

2009-06-06 [[Wireless Park]] attacked and took it in 2 rounds. Blockade was very one-sided as Wireless Park did not lose a ship, and Ice Cream lost every ship it entered.

2009-08-01 Wireless Park Defended in 2 rounds. Blockade was again very one-sided.

2010-06-05 {{Ice|Extreme Pain}} attacked and took it in 2 rounds. Blockade was a flag sit.

2011-07-22 Frozen Fairytale defended Fort Royal in a 1 round blockade against the challenging flag [[Search and Destroy]].

2011-07-31 [[Curse of the Seas]] attacked Fort Royal in a 1 round blockade and succeeded Frozen Fairytale. Frozen Fairytale did not defend.

2011-08-05 [[Cult of Personality]] attacked Fort Royal in a 1 round blockade and succeeded Curse of the Seas.

2011-08-12 Frozen Fairytale attacked Fort Royal in a 1 round blockade and succeeded Cult of Personality.

2011-08-21 Frozen Fairytale defended Fort Royal in a 1 round blockade against the challenging flags {{Ice|The Avengers}} and Shadows of Ice.

2011-08-27 Frozen Fairytale defended Fort Royal in a 1 round blockade against the challenging flag Shadows of Ice.  Frozen Fairytale won by 1-point on the last turn.
