Huitca Imperium

The Huitca Imperium was a breakaway nation run by RedFireRex situated on the Phagosian islands of Cuiciloa, Tonatiuh, Ocotlan, and Tepetl in the Phagosian Sea next to the continents Ummarnu, Vastallos, and Syltör. It was named for the Huitca people, a native people of Rathnir who live on the Phagosian islands and make up the nation. The city of Tlahatl, was founded by the first Huitca people, and was previously the center of the Altepetl of Tlahatl, the city-state that became the Federation, and then became the Imperium. Tlahatl as a city-state was briefly a territory of the Valdreach Imperial Republic, and formerly held a seat in the nation's Circle of Speakers. Tlahatl as a city-state was also a founding member of the Vastallosi Alliance of Western Rathnir, and while the city didn't sign the treaty initially, it signed before the Alliance was officially proclaimed.

It called itself the "True Huitca". After being dissatisfied by Tlatoani Infinick's rule, RedFireRex started the Huitca Coup against the Federation's government, and seized control on December 11th, 2020. He declared the new nation as Huitca Imperium, often shortened to just "Imperium".

Government
The nation's head was known as the Eternal-Tlatoani (Emperor). The ruling dynasty was RedFireRex, and only RedFireRex. The nation lasted 27 hours, and after that, Rex surrendered the Imperium. The Eternal-Tlatoani served as the political head of the Huitca People. This monarch traditionally appointed an assistant to run day-to-day affairs, known as the Cihuacoatl (Prime Minister). The Tlatoani and the Cihuacoatl shared their duties in running the nation, although the Tlatoani still outranked the Cihuacoatl. Unlike the Huitcan Federation, there was no Grand Assembly. RedFireRex was the Eternal Ruler of Huitca Imperium, and therefore, there was no need for a Grand Assembly.

Culture and Religion
Huitca Imperium's Culture and Religion were the same as The Federation's, except with less democracy.

The Battle
The Tlatoani-in-exile, Infinick, challenged RedFireRex to a duel at 4:00 PM EST on December 12th 2020 while on Apollo Radio, but this time was pushed back to 7:00 PM EST due to IRL scheduling Issues.

The deal was, if RedFireRex won, Huitca Imperium would remain, and Rex would invade the rest of Western Rathnir to expand his thirst for land and power, and if Tlatoani Infinick won, the Imperium would be disbanded, and Rex would surrender and rejoin the Federation.

When 7:00 rolled around, RedFireRex, surrounded by both supporters and observers, waited patiently for Infinick to arrive in Tlahatl from Waahi with his Army. Rex met Infinick on the bridge outside of the city's temple district, and the two of them battled it out to see which Huitca would remain.

In an intense battle that lasted roughly 27 seconds, Tlatoani Infinick came out victorious, slaying Rex and reviving the Federation, and proving to the world that the Federation was the true, and only Huitca.

This battle was for the Soul of the Huitca people, and everyone in the nation changed that day as a result.

The Brief Return
The Huitca Imperium Briefly returned for the YA-Trillium War. After hearing that the Huitca Federation would remain neutral, Toronto Dougwald, despite being against the Imperium now after his re-birth, he decided that there would be no harm done to temporarily re-instate the Imperium as a nation so he could fight in the war. The Imperium backed the Coalition. Toronto, as well as Infinick, surprisingly, both fought with Imperium banners on their shields.

After the hour long battle for Urnu-Arrak was concluded after a quick surrendering from the Coalition's side, Toronto publicly announced that he was dissolving the Imperium, as it only existed for war purposes.

Overall, Huitca Imperium reappeared for about 3 hours.
