Archived-The Canberra Academy

Origins and Publicly Known Information

Originally established in 1913CE with the beginning of construction of Canberra, the Canberra Academy is as old as the city itself.

For a brief period, the Canberra Academy merged with the Sydney Academy (December 2013CE to May 2014CE) after a series of internal issues in the formerly independent and much older Sydney Academy led to a state of unclear leadership. The Canberra Academy - which had a larger concentration of highly ranked Dragons - offered to step in and provide more direct mentorship to the Dracul of Sydney, and after formal meetings to ratify the decision the two academies merged into one structure. This arrangement ended after members from Sydney felt that certain members in the leadership in Canberra were not willing to do enough to correct the political landscape in Canberra despite overwhelming court support for a change in praxis.
