2nd Ryzani Crisis

The Second Ryzani Crisis was a series of events in January 10-12, 2021 where Ryzan was at risk of collapsing.

Events
December 14th
 * The Volkore Government unanimously introduced the Volkore Kingdoms Act, giving their Dependencies rights that they did not previously have. Some take it to be too strict

January 10


 * Nova Balreska purchases the services of Ravenus Representation to negotiate its independence while keeping the land of Erebor.
 * Thinker__, the Emperor of Volkore, suddenly and mysteriously disappeared (taking the majority of Volkore's wealth with him). The cause is disputed, with the more rational stating that he was lost at sea, and other, more ludicrous theories include anything from him being eaten by a dragon, being captured by bandits to be held for ransom, or even him offending a god, and being completely and utterly erased from existence, as though he were never there to begin with. ___Athos___ has taken his position.
 * After weeks of King Nebsk of Nebskoslavia claiming territory given to Volkore by the Lord Chamberlain of the Estates, the Head Representative of Ryzan demands that Nebskoslavia removes all Volkorean claims from their maps or face becoming a Dependency of Volkore under the Volkore Kingdoms Act

January 11


 * Nebskoslavia declares it independence from Ryzan.
 * Due to the clear denial of the demands from the Head Representative of Ryzan, the new Emperor of Volkore, joined by Volkore, Inc., state the intention of total Nebskoslavian annexation.
 * The Volkorean statement worries some Remtal and Balreskan officials.
 * Representitives of Remtal meet with Balreskan nobles to discuss independence. Slowly, Vologda and Bjorynskull join the secret conspiracy. A professional from Ravenus Representation drafts an official document to present to both Volkoe and the world.
 * A Bjoryni representative finds themself disagreeing with the conspiracy and backing out of the deal, alerting TheBurger3 in the process.
 * The nations Remtal, Nova Balreska, and Volodga joint-declared their independence to the world, along with a list of grievances.

January 12


 * The secessionist states are officially independent as of 12pm, EST
 * Emperor Athos and King Nebsk agree to a duel to decide the fate of Nebskoslavia.
 * The duel occurs at 3 pm EST, and is universally hailed as a disapointment. It lasted less than 10 seconds, with King Nebsk barely scoring a single hit on Emperor Athos, while Athos swiftly cut his neck. The Nebskii who wish to remain with the remaining royal line migrate north, to an area on the coast of the Fiefdoms of Remtal, granted to them by Count Donklas Tise.
 * The Formaslisation of the Freeholds of Westreach is completed, with the above states being joined by the newly proclaimed realm of the North Nebskii, as well as the elves of Norfthorn.
