Posovari revolutions

The Posovari Revolutions happened as a result of the great bandit attacks from Troy. Dissatisfied by the defensive capability of Posavaria and a recent law prohibiting volunteering in foreign armies, the people decided to protest, which lead to a further tightening of these restrictions.
== The First Posovari Revolution ==
The northern towns of Askalon, New Kalaningrad, Snoengrad, and later New Flagstaff and Noordsholm devised a plan to secede Posovaria and join Akratia. While at first, it was planned to simply migrate to Akratia, the leaders of Askalon, which lead the revolutionaries, did not want to abandon their home. After a few days, the revolutionaries reached an agreement to declare independence and form the Kelmar Union, which was supposed to later join Akratia. This was supposed to disguise the Akratian support of the rebellion in order to prevent a diplomatic incident. The statement declaiming independence was meant to be issued on March 10th, 2021. On March 8th, two days before the plan was meant to go into action, SkyBro, a prominent leaders of the revolutionaries, approached NaturalKind, the Baron of Nordsholm, asking him to join the conspiracy. NatrualKind immediately informed a BatChatap and asked him for help in quelling the rebellion, not realizing that BatChatap was supporting the revolutionaries in secret. Upon realizing the scope of the revolution, NaturalKind pledged that Nordsholm would support the revolutionaries.
The date of independence was later moved forward to March 9th of March, on which leaders of Askalon, New-Kalingrad, Snoengrad and Nordsholm issued their joined statement of independence at 7pm GMT, announcing the secession from Posavaria nad the formation of the Kelmar Union.
== The Second Posovari Revolution ==
After the creation of the Kelmar Union, the city of New Flagstaff joined the revolutionaries. On the 15th March, the Kelmar Army planned march into the towns and formally annex them to the newly independent Kelmar Union. Most residents, if they had not already moved to Kelmar, were massively in support of the movement. At this time, the revolutionaries were still divided on whether to fully integrate into Akratia or remain independent. During the ongoing debate, a founder of Kelmar, BatChatap, approached Loic, the Archon of Viodoxa, to request Viodoxan neutrality in the conflict. Loic offered Kelmar to become protectorate of Viodoxa, causing further division among the revolutionaries on whether to join Akratia or Viodoxa, considering that either option would have a severe impact on the relations with the rejected nation. Despite these developments, the revolutionaries moved the annexation of the northern town to March 13th. Due to extensive espionage, the revolutionaries were informed that Posavari government knew of their plans and sent out messages to other nations, asking them to not reckognize Kelmar independance.
Debate among the revolutionaries regarding Viodoxa's and Akratia's offers continued through the night, until it was finally decided, though not to the satisfaction of all, to flee the situation entirely by moving to Viodoxa. This was eventually announced to the Posovari government, which accepted the departure of the revolutionaries. Akratia's leader, MW_Neoz, later placed bounties on the heads of several revolutionaries.
Soon after, the leader of New Flagstaff announced the invasion of Loregal, a town in east Regonia. Though it is uncertain what motivated New Flagstaff's government to military action, it is theorized to be tied to a corruption scandal regarding SkyBro.
