History

Founding

The Commodore Family was first founded by Minuteman-tan, who is the first Commodore calculator-tan, and set the military traditions for all later members of the faction.

In 1976-77, a deal was made with KIM-1, a computer-tan that would allow her to join the faction. Minuteman was reluctant at first, correctly fearing that she may lose much of her influence to 'those dreaded computers', but also saw the potential for a Commodore empire to be created by expanding their scope beyond being a calculator-tan faction.

KIM-1 became a part-time Commodore Family member, and agreed to give her recently-born daughter PET-tan to them. PET-tan was raised by Minuteman and KIM-1 to be a powerful and clever naval captain, and competitor against the fledgeling Apple, Tandy (and later, Atari) factions.

The calculator-tans lost most of their influence when the Commodore computer-tans rose to power, but for years, Minuteman-tan remained an influential figurehead.
