The Republic Of Rapture

The Rapture republic (was also known as the democratic peoples republic of Rapture) Was a democratic rebel state within phoenia. The nation lasted around 44 hours before Rapture was captured and the rebels split off into hiding or fighting within the nations many biomes.

The Rebellion
At 6pm EST the mayor of Rapture, Astapf declared independence from phoenia. This was due to many reasons such as a corrupt government and many others. Rapture was organised into a Republic with Astapf as President and his vice president Izoomu in charge aswell.

The portavel honey incident
Portavel is special as the city went from a refugee camp to a massive island port city and then to one of the largest in the nation. Astapf and the Grand Army Of Rapture (the official army name) moved to not capture the city but tell its mayor to restock the honey shop within the town. It nearly started a battle yet they left not wanting a fight.

The Independence party
The people of Rapture celebrated at the fight night of the declaration. The party was the largest seen and was massive for the city. Astapf ended up not drinking and instead went to the A.W.E.

Government collapse
The republic collapsed 44 hours after the creation as many mercenaries hired by foreign nations and the elite rich of phoenia ended up pushing the rebels out causing the city to be looted and unclaimed. This is when Astapf went into hiding in northeast eldham and most rebels fled the nation. Yet some ended up continuing the fight and still are active in the region to this day.
