St.Acol

Chapter One: Infinity Desert
I was born on the year-99 AC, AC meaning Acolyte Calender: a calender of my own design; to sheep herders in the Infinity Desert, Huitca Federation. We were nomads for some 5 years before settling down and founding our settlement of Wa-Hat; becoming the Wa-Hati Khanate. We lived there for some 3 years before the government of the Huitca realized our presence in the desert: which they claimed to be a holy site to them: and ordered our immediate departure or face total annihilation. It should be noted that I do not believe that this desert holds any significance the god that they dedicated it to, for we lived there for a little less of a decade with no divine interference. With this sudden warning we didn't have much time to plan on where to go, so we remained homeless for a few some years. During this period I informed the rest of the tribe about a proposal offered by an Ardat-Mosul official, where we would be able to settle in the Mesa and join Ardat. I believed this to be one of our best deals since we got to keep our religion and we could mine in the mesa. However the Khan, Pache Shivi, and the religious leader Zircronzz, both favored going up to the depopulated Niedia and settling there instead. With it 1-2 I was forced to concede and move with them.

Chapter Two: Wa-Hat
With the tribe now fully relocated to Neidia we founded the moutain town of Jharana in central Neidia. We claimed the area around the city, and transformed into the Kingdom of Wa-Hat to appeal more to our neighbors. A few years passed and the population exploded, Jharana was being built up and there were no conceivable threats. That was until we were told to convert to Solleanea or face war. Zircronzz instantly surrendered and abandoned the old gods. I personally would never convert for I thought it was full of hypocrisy and very dull. This forced conversion would be the start of Wa-Hat's decline. After this incident I proposed we formed an army and for me to become a general. Shivi and Zircronzz both agreed and I was now officially apart of the government. As general I began working feverishly recruiting and planning for any wars we may have to fight. This gave Zircronzz the impression that I was a war hawk, and it was even more solidified when I proposed that we claim some lands out east so that way we appear more threating. All of my reasoning for this was to avoid war, similar to how a pufferfish blows up when it's threatened. This wouldn't mend Zircronzz's opinion of me, and the rest of my time in Wa-Hat would be with constant struggle to get my plans implemented so that Wa-Hat could defend itself. I harbored my own opinions of Zircronzz, I believed he couldn't see the big picture and his pacifism was really hurting Wa-Hat. None of my own plans would be implemented, the land in the east was quickly claimed like I said it would, and now we were a tiny nation surrounded by bigger nations, but still Zircronzz refused to do anything about it. Now Zircronzz isn't the leader of Wa-Hat, that would be Shiviv, but Zircronzz was the must vocal critic of my plans and Shiviv went along with him. After some years passed Shiviv signed a treaty with the Aesperium believing it was just a defense organization, however when I told him that it was actually a ploy for Aesperium to annex Wa-Hat he refused to believe me. After the signing of the treaty Aesperium annexed Wa-Hat. When this happened a player called Zenohun lead an exodus of Wa-Hat to found a new nation, Krobun.(-88AC)

Chapter Three: Krobun
I quickly followed him and joined Krobun. Most Wa-Hatis joined Krobun as well and it is to my belief that the entire population spare for Shiviv and Zircronzz joined it. I do not know what happened to those two after the exodus but I do know that they both died sometime between the exodus and of me writing this(261 AC). Zeno set up the port city and capital of Sualot. We quickly built the houses, port, walls, and other buildings that a city needs. I do feel the need to note that this period of my life my memory is very fuzzy and may not be 100% accurate.

A few years after the founding of Krobun, the Kurultai impeached Zeno and banished him, the reasoning for this I have never been made aware of. After this incident a new Tsar was elected by the Kurultai and I was placed in the Kurultai with my job being in charge of diplomacy. I must admit that diplomacy was not one of my best assets, however I do believe I did a well enough job while I was on the Kurultai. The new Tsar, Duke Ridx was elected and everything was peaceful for some 15 years until in -73 AC against the law and the wishes of the Krobun people Tsar Ridx joined the Aesperium as a protectorate, I acted quickly and initiated the vote the Impeach him. I also handled things with the Aesperium and got us out of the protectorate.

Addendum 1:
During this period something happened with baykonia. I do not know what but for some reason the Kurultai sent some guy to take it over. I personally know very little of the event, and I am very angry about that, since as my job was supposed to be diplomat they did this without telling me. And it made my job a lot harder since everyone now doesn't like us.

We elected a new Tsar by the name of Underschamker, I simply call him Schmaker. It was only 6 years until another crisis happened. In the year -67 AC, Krobun was approached by Caprica to join them. The Kurultai voted to join and I crafted the treaty, which was essentialy that we get a lot of stuff without having to do anything. For reasons I to this day still do not fully understand the nations of Aesperium, Order Muavielle, and Floramia, were very upset by the desicion and cut all diplomatic ties. In the span of a year(day) Muviell forces decided to "occupy" Saulot. I put quotations since no war was declared all they did was loiter. Being the only member of the Kurultai on I banned the people spamming pics of them "occupying" saulot, and immiedtatly began organizing a defense of the city, ordering the spot where they got in be found and fixed. I drafted the populous and was ready for war in just a couple of hours. I do believe that we would have won such a conflict, However the Tsar had been secretly working with Muveille. He decided to step down and I voted for Chief_Thomas to become the new Tsar. This would have gone smoothly if Schmaker hadn't banned me from the Krobun discord, put babysans as Tsar and made him join muevielle. I was banished from Krobun entirely and ventured to a remote island in the Shattered Sea. I do know that Chief_Thomas lead a resistance for sometime before stopping after a few failed revolts.

Chapter Four: The Acolytes
I would spend 67 years on the island all while chronicling my revelations in the 11 Revelations of St.Acol, and founding Ourosborosism. In the year 1 AC i bought the island and another from Solitudiem, for 60k. I got my followers, The Acolytes, to join me on the island which will soon become St.Acol's Fort. Life on the island was very peaceful, I watched after my citizens and we would have fun together. I recall a particular incident where one of The Acolytes 360 no-scoped another. That was a fun day. We spent most of our time following Ourosborosism and building up the island. That was until I purchased an island from Baronov just to have it taken by Escharria. A couple of decades after that we were taken over by Zemlya during the Zemlya Crisis.

Addendum 2:
I would type more but I have already written the history of The Acolytes in its dedicated wiki page.

Chapter Five: Seaside-Baronov
I still lead The Acolytes, but I reside in Seaside, Seaside-Baronov. After the passing of my father Jaxfon I inherited the crown of Seaside and now rule Seaside as its king. Under my rule Seaside has exploded in population and influence. Prosperity blesses this nation and I wish for it to never end.

Chapter Six: Betrayal
On 211 AC my adopted father Jaxfon (who is dead at this time, and perma-banned for sexually harrassing a minor) announced the "dethronement of Acol" Which reads as follows.

Announcement
''My fellow Seasiders, I have come to you all in relation to the actions of my son, St. Acol (Aaric), is not the person who you may believe he is. He has tarnished the Von Blarg dynasty, destroyed relations and the stability of the S-B, and has pushed away all who challenge him and his vision of an Acolyte society. I do not have issues with those who follow Ouroborosism, but that of St. Acol himself. I, the head of the Von Blarg family, as stated by the S-B constitution, therefore have decided to strip St. Acol of the Von Blarg title, and disown him. I have decided to do this after months of dealing with his incompetence, self interests, and backdoor deals. Not once has anything he’s done ever been for the prosperity of Seaside, only himself, he is a lone wolf who doesn't trust anyone, and who cares more about his image than anything else. No longer will our neighbors laugh at us because our leader can't respond to criticism and based his entire personality on memes.''

''St. Acol’s history speaks for itself, he was once the leader of a failed state near Zemlya and southern Baronov known as St. Acol’s Fort. While the city looked nice and there were plenty of industries, similar to our many guilds, almost never advertised or prioritized growing commerce between neighbors and others. Something that is happening yet again. While we grow our industries and commerce, we simply aren't exporting or growing any foreign investment. Something our sister kingdom and neighbors have no issue with. The government was poorly planned out and made, oftentimes confusing and totalitarian. While he may point at the Seaside Constitution, the reality is that it isn't even followed. He often praises Freedom of speech, yet it isn't actually protected. There is no freedom of religion, not a surprise to anyone. All of this was made to keep power to himself. Nothing is structured to have checks and balances, or to help grow areas that he is not in direct control of. This all enables him for one last thing. He hides foreign agendas and policy. While in control of his nation down south, he bought an island from Baronov. Despite a mistake made by Zemlya who peacefully tried to speak to Acol, he continued to spy and instigate drama between the two nations. After being rude and toxic to Zemlya's members, they went to war. St. Acol would then lose as he poorly planned his war, and would not even be able to show up to the battle. It is said by some former acolytes that he even told his soldiers not to speak to outsiders about the war afterwards, and to say "they fought well." These habits did not end however, as he would continue doing these deals in secret within Seaside. He would avoid speaking to our sister kingdom unless it benefitted him, and would start making deals with foreign nations that undermine the legitimacy of the Diarchy. He would sell our islands in backdoor deals and would argue it as legitimate despite it going against the very founding of the S-B. His intentions weren’t to benefit Seaside or to improve relations, but to further his own power and material wealth.''

''~Demands~ I, the founder and longest lasting king of Seaside, shall return to my original and intended place on the throne, to bring a golden age to the kingdom, restore relations with the S-B and uphold the constitution, and to ensure that Seaside's future is far brighter than one pictured by one man alone. St. Acol is stripped of their Von Blarg title and position within the monarch and government, and is required to transfer their claim ownership to the ign “SeemsVeryLegit” who will take the claim ownership temporarily on my behalf. I am not alone on this decision, as the rest of the Shattered Sea is tired of dealing with St. Acol's shenanigan's. If these demands are not met. The Seaside-Baronov government shall forcibly make St. Acol resign, and will declare war on any and all of his insurrectionists. If this message is deleted or I am kicked or banned from the Seaside server, I shall assume that you will not comply, and we shall consider this an Acolyte Insurrection.'' Long Live the Monarchy.

Chapter 6 pt 2
How a dead man can remove me of my throne is beyond me, but Baranov went along with it. Baranov sided with Jaxfon because they feared Seaside's growth and prosperity would upset the Senior-Junior partnership they maintained in the Union. It is clear in the announcement that it is full of hypocrisies and lies. How I am both simultaneously ostracized from the Plagos diplomatic scene but yet capable of making so called "backdoor deals"(naps and alliances) with nations in Plagos. Incompetence and Self Interest despite leading Seaside to it's most prosperous and lively era it has ever been in. Jaxfon brings up how I lost my first nation to Zemlya, what he doesn't mention is how people can learn from their mistakes and how he adopted me and put me on the throne of Seaside. Jaxfon says that I haven't been inviting foreign industry to seaside while two general stores were under construction and I was planning on exporting alcohol. Jaxfon simply lies about the lack of freedoms I provided, I let people speak their minds on me, Seaside, the government, the monarchy, and so on. It is true that there was no freedom of religion in Seaside I still let people follow their own religions and never made use of the clause. It is true the government was structured to keep power to me, that's because it's a monarchy and even then there are still the guild congress which acted as the voice of the people, and it had the power to impeach me if it saw fit, and the judges which kept the law intact. Jaxfon brings up my first nation again claiming that I instigated the war, this is false. Zemlya claimed as close as the plugin would allow it and built their wall just one chunk away from mine, I asked them if they could move it back and when they didn't responded I asked their overlord, Baranov and Captain North said they would. They never did. Despite this I attempted to maintain cordial relations, I tried to fish with them and share alcohol but their leader would throw me out every time. Jaxfon said that if I didn't give up my throne then it would be an insurgency despite me being the head of state, it would just make it a civilwar.

When I sold those islands the funds gained by that went directly into the seaside treasury. It was seaside jurisdiction and I had the right to sell them since Baranov had the right to let Zemlya pay for it's independence without sharing any of the 500k. Baranov demanded that the general assembly be called to a vote to decide the fate of the islands sold. The vote was held and it was decided to just leave them be since the transaction was already made and it would lead to war. Everyone who voted to leave the islands be were from Seaside, everyone who voted to go to war with the islands were from Baranov. Even though we had the same number of members in the assembly Baranov couldn't get their members to show up and vote. I believe that this event solidified the belief in Baronov that Seaside was about to overtake them. We already had just 3 people less than Baranov and we were growing quicker than it was.

When the island issue came to a close the final drafts of the Seaside-Baranov constitution were being written up. The constitution was meant to bring Seaside and Baranov closer, it would combine our militaries and make a centralized government with the two kings as head of state. In the constitution there was a clause preventing one nation to make territorial changes without a vote from the assembly, which I signed off on when it came time to ratify it. After the constitution was ratified I thought everything was fine and tensions were behind us. The future looked bright, but all Baranov saw was their relevance being eclipsed the Von Blarg seal.

When Jaxfon's announcement came it caught everyone in seaside off guard. I knew that there wasn't any going back. Jaxfon and some Baranovians began spreading the lies and after a few hours of arguing with them I just got tired of it and muted every Baranovian except North and went to bed. After that Baranov didn't do much, they did appoint Nik907 as the new king of Seaside now that the sexual harassment stuff with Jaxfon became well known, despite the appointment I didn't ban him immediately despite it being treason. I would banish him when I caught him red handed destroying all the crops in the Seaside farms and putting them into a shop chest without replanting them. When I confronted him about it he just said "Oh no~" which hit a nerve. I thought maybe I overreacted but when he told the story he said that he was replanting them starting with the wheat, which is untrue I was the one replanting things after I removed him from the claim. This blatant undermining of the law and order of Seaside by a foreign power made it clear that Baranov was just going to keep doing stuff like this forever and wouldn't actually go to war.

I wanted to get things over with and had to force them to go to war via admin ticket. In hindsight what I should have done was their stupid stuff and became a vassal of some other Plagos nation to force them to withdraw from Seaside's outer islands and isolate them diplomatically. But their constant antagonizing got the better of me, and so it was war.

I took out a personal loan from Acon of 300k. I used this to hire the Osseous mercenary group, elite mercenaries with many victories under their belt. Next I convinced 6 nations to send volunteers, these nations include Borhammer, Eleusis, Hansa, the Osterium Pirates, and Skjoldbrodir. 3 of those were Plagosi nations. I had around 50 soldiers in the war meeting and around 30 in the actual war. Baranov could only muster about half of that, most of it coming from Aoura Novum and Bardonia. As far as I know the only Baranovians on during the war was North.

I was unfamiliar with the war system seeing how I was always trying my best to avoid it, as such I had no capture blocks of my own and left the ocean chunks around the city claimed. When the war started the Bardonians took these first getting them a lead in the points. They would never breach the city instead sending 3 invisible people with capture blocks to capture chunks(this would later be banned) That and that alone is the only reason Baranov won a technicality. The Osseous mercenaries got some capture blocks from a fallen Bardonian and invaded Baranov proper causing a lot of property damage. In the end the kill count was 49 deaths on Baranov's side and 0 on my side. When Baranov won with the capture points North made an announcement about their victory but quickly deleted it because in the announcement where he showed the score it showed the 49 kills that my side got and 0 that he got. He was also hiding in a tunnel in Zemlya at half a heart, naked, and starving. I could have continued the war and most definitely would have won, but I was tired, my people were tired so I didn't continue the war, me and the Seaside loyalists left dropping the population in half, which meant that the union's population fell by 45%, there could not have been a greater catastrophe to happen to Seaside-Baranov. To this day (330 AC) Seaside still hasn't recovered it's pre-war population. Only one pre-war citizen remains in Seaside and that is my son, ZMW7, he became the king when Nik died. Acon died soon after so I was absolved of my 300k war debt and in the end instead of working towards a stronger better union, Baranov chose to lose half its population, its reputation, get itself into massive debt, and would lose its independence several times.
