Second Empire of Plagatéa

The Second Empire of Plagatéa is a diarchical state that covers the majority of the continent of Plagos in North-eastern Rathnir, currently ruled by Tagavor Leon Olsen-Tanaka and Tagavor Doom. It consists of multiple Lordship provinces ruled by feudal Lords, all united under the Tagavors.

Formation
After the sale (under duress) of the former Empire of Plagatéa colony in Eldham Plagatéan Michinaru, which then became Kardovia, during the succession crisis and collapse of the Empire, Kardovians had been distrustful of the new government. They perceived it as a traitorous, and weak, especially the Kardovian leader, Leon Olsen-Tanaka, known as the Magistrate of the Eldham colonies in Plagatéa.

On the 5th of September, Leon, after witnessing discussions in the Senate of The Realm of Asarakaen over the new guild economy system, saw their economic and military fragility, and chose to act. He announced the establishment of the Second Plagatéan Empire on Eldham, and stated he was taking his rightful claim to as Tagavor and would be "retaking what is ours", with the Simulami Empire quickly backing them. His claim as Tagavor would be heavily disputed, with letters of the last orders of the former Tagavor Nero published by the Royal Advisor, Abigail Akihiro, that showed the only two rightful Tagavors on Nero's death were Aisuru Numachi and Doom (Leon would later admit while in negotiations with the Senate of the Realm that his right was through his military and those that had infiltrated the Asarakaen government that were loyal to him).

Leon Olsen-Tanaka then opened negotiations with the Senate of the Realm of Asarakaen, stating that there would be war unless Asarakaen agreed to the terms he laid out, and that his military would crush The Realm of Asarakaen in this event. He stated that 1) Kitaichi would become the Capital of the Second Plagatéan Empire, 2) Asarakaen would be renamed to the Second Plagatéan Empire and 3) That Asarakaen would be forced to pay a weekly tribute of 1 block of gold to the Empire in Eldham. He and the Senate would proceed to negotiate these terms to an eventual settlement that stated that there would be a return of the Tagavor diarchy, with Leon ruling over the Empire in Eldham and Queen Aisuru ruling over Rathnir. However, the Senate throughout all of this had been forced to act without their Monarch, due to her being away on a diplomatic visit, and still required her approval.

When she returned, she was horrified by the seeming acceptance of the situation, and the fact that negotiations had immediately begun, under the pretence that intervention from Asarakaen allies elsewhere in the globe would result in the end of any hope for unity in Plagos, which would be worse than ceding control to Leon. Both the potential return of Skittles Alliance to counter the Empire and the at the time new Confederation of Plagos were greatly feared by Leon, who had not calculated the possibility of the either intervening to save the Queen. She was given the opportunity to finalise an rule jointly, but she did not feel she could do so in good faith, as she had sworn Plagatéa would never again become an Empire under her rule, and was disgusted by what she called a coup by Leon Olsen-Tanaka in her official abdication announcement. She instead chose to abdicate the throne, announcing in a statement she would travel to live with her relatives, the McSpiegals, in Viodoxa with her husband, King Techno Numachi. Upon hearing of this, Leon mocked the Queen, branding her weak in his own statement, and announced the existence of the new Empire, replacing what he branded as the weak, ineffective previous government of Asarakaen.

Leon proceeded with establishing the terms of the agreement with the Senate, appointing Doom as his Tagavor, and Revo as the Royal Regent. He also merged the governments in Eldham and Rathnir together, though with officials primarily based in Plagos. He also announced the Senate would be used as a purely advisory council with senior government leadership, though would have no legislative ability.
