Creation

Queens of the Stone Age is a small gang pvp centric corp founded by Weirda on the 30th of March 2004. QotSA began it's work as a corp 06/07.

Initial Qotsa members were primarily friends from [[Archon Industries ]]. The Birth of QotSA coincided with the birth of an external website [scrapheap-challenge] created by a disenchanted Minmatar capsuleer named Calmdown. QotSA quickly gained a reputation as a relaxed Minmatar centric corp this reputation together with early members high profiles on the site attracted a number of recruits.

Early History

The Core Directorship of QotSA was established early and many of the early directors remain within the corp to this day. Initial combat activities commenced in curse along with a large amount of empire pirating, (loosely referred to within corp as being "liberal with the targets but not actually pirating"), occurred within the Amamake area.

Alliance History

2006 -- QotSA's first move into the alliance theatre was joining the now defunct Chimera Pact alliance. It could be said that Chimera pact was hampered by it's youth and it and QotSA parted company after a few months.

2007 --Next move was to Anarchy Empire and Syndicate, it was here that the corp discovered it's niche. Working along side Celtic Anarchy, Yanks and Team America. Here is began to blossom as a corp specialising in small ship warfare with the ability to reship into large hulls to bolster special taskforces.

Late 2007 to 2008 - The directorate decided to close the corp due to tiredness. Members split to Uninvited Guests and Malicious Intentions amongst others.

Mid 2008 - Many of the original directors find themselves flying together again in Star Fraction after a few chats they decide to get back together for old times sake. QotSA MK II is born.

Mid 2008 - QotSA flies down to meet up with it's old friends in Uninvited Guests

Mid late 2008 - QotSA becomes a founder member of Rote Kapelle, along with Stimulus and the Uninvited Guests; returning to their roots in Syndicate, the Queens continue to practise the art of small gang warfare.
