In this month, they also started preparing escape plans to leave Ratham before the meteor strike, which appears to be on track to hit Ratham on March 30th.

Maps/Geography
Westport is not in the best area, Downtown Westport was first found on March 21, 2023 after the first Westport Expedition. It was chosen since it is close to Atreiyen Manor (their top/only ally at the time). They started moving north in mid-march with a tunnel going thru Mount Hillcrest, and after that they established a market in the tunnel. Then, once the tunnel was done they built a road up to Nordia. Once Downtown Westport was full, they built houses in what is now Centria, and once that was full, they took down Mont Centria. They are bordered to the north and east by the Lycaen Sea, the world border to the west, and the Atreiyen River & Zerkalo Commonwealth to the south, making them similar to an island.

Note: These maps are outdated and I am fixing them.

Coup of March 20th
On March 20, 2023, Pumice Fromulis and Luke Pogerston were couped and removed from power from Febenia. Mohamed Reza continued Febenia and Pogerston and Fromulis took asylum in Atreiyen Manor. The very next day they went north and founded Westport on March 21.
