Outer Edward

Outer Edward, or the Shorelands, is the sixteenth and newest district of New Maine. In 1954, the region now known as Outer Edward was created as the district of Edward: Prince Edward Island and a considerable amount of land on the shores of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Eventually, the population on the "shorelands" (as the district is still alternatively called) start calling motions to secede, claiming that the interests of Prince Edward Island do not reflect their own. This movement was started by Councilor John Markworthy, who represented the Second Ward of Edward in the Edward Council. It was eventually supported by Senator Janis Nealy, who proposed in on the floor of the New Maine Senate. The motion was passed, and the shorelands officially became the district of Outer Edward on July 11, 1990.

History
In 1987, it was proposed in the Senate that the populous 1st District be divided into two districts. That proposal was officially passed in 1990.
