Aristii Civil War

The Aristii civil war was a civil war between the Commonwealth of Aristios (CoA) and the Grand Empire of Aristios. The Commonwealth of Aristios was led by Inverse, on the other hand, the Grand Empire of Aristios was led by the current Emperor Otto.

Prelude
On October twenty-eighth Otto the current emperor at the time created an electoral college type system, that had four parties Liberal, Social Dem, Nationalist, and Monarchist. This method of democracy was frowned upon by many senators and province governors, many people also believed that Otto was going to get rid of the little democracy Aristios had.

Inverse had feared that given enough time Aristios would become a monarchy. On October thirtieth Inverse, Echo Regis, Azrielz, Chadifex, **Z, Michael Valore, Dot, Bea Ruuk, and Sirlad had a meeting about Aristii's "Failing Democracy". During that meeting a coup was proposed by Azrielz and Chadifex, Inverse took charge.

The Commonwealth being formed
Inverse announced the founding of the Commonwealth of Aristios on October thirty-first. This news brought panic to the capital of Aristios, Oleapolis. Many people fled and Wize_nifty of the Aristii council ended up having to take a break from the server because of the stress build-up.

Tensions
During the middle of the civil war every province had to decide what to do. Either join the Commonwealth, declare independance and neutrality or join Otto's temporary coalition of states. Most declared neutrality but certain cases like Castellum being definitively Commonwealth or the weird case of Astillia wherin Lakial, Aelamare and Ryukostead were in the Commonwealth but Pepe de Gerrát turned Kalisgrado (Kalisburgo + Oxxo) and southern Astillia into the states of Alba-Sarbania an Imperialist state. Astrya declared independace as Azad but didn't have any intention to ever rejoin the Republic.

The "Burning" of Pompaelo
At some point in the conflict the city of Pompaleo in Castellum were demolishing old buildings and they burned one down. Through Rumours and misinformation people assumed this was an attack and that the whole city was burnt down. The Commonwealth accused Otto of burning down Pompaleo while Otto accused the Commonwealth. This whole drama wasn't cleared out properly until the conflict was over

Negotiations
Thankfully Inverse and Otto managed to negotiate, Otto ended up accepting Inverse's terms and Otto stepped down from power. The Commonwealth constitution was put into place but the Aristii way of life remained the same.

Provinces/Towns Aftermath
On November second negotiations were finished and Aristios became (almost) whole again. The most notable changes were the secession of Astrya, Abaddon, and New Arebor. When the towns of Abaddon and New Arebor seceded, they took a bit of Olemeronia's and Preyella's southern and northern land. The province of Astrya now known as Azad declared independence and took their province with them, this was the most drastic change to the Aristios map.

Leadership Aftermath
On November fourth there were emperor elections. When Otto stepped down there was no leadership position so the new government decided to fill that spot by holding an election. Inverse ended up winning in a landslide victory. Inverse got more than fifty percent of the votes and Otto got one, himself. roughly a month later Otto was banished from Aristios
