Cynetian Power Struggle

The Cynetian Power Struggle (CPS), also known as the Cynetian Wars, Cynetian Conflict, and Cynetian Dark Age, is a timeline including an ongoing time period and series of events, conflicts, and military engagements that are happening in the former territories under the control of Cynetia. The power struggle began on 6 January 2022 when Greater Idaho declared war on and invaded Cynetia with the First Cynetian War. The Cynetian Power Struggle continues to the present with the conflict between the OK Empire and Anti-OK Alliance during the Second Cynetian War.
== Separatism ==
Throughout the Cynetian Power Struggle, separatism has been a major theme. During the First Cynetian War and later Second Cynetian War, the territory around the Cynetian city of Faker became a major site of fighting. The area was first invaded by Greater Idaho, leading to the city of Faker and surrounding areas becoming independent as the Provisional Government of Faker. This later inspired Yibble to declare independence, resulting in the formation of the Provisional Government of Yibble. Various other separatist movements (such as the Provisional Government of Drivore) emerged in Cynetia during the First Cynetian War, however the majority of them never became significant.
== Influence ==
The Cynetian Power Struggle has had an influential impact on the Alternate Territories Community (ATC). It has been remembered by multiple users as a good example of community collaboration between ATC users and as something that brought users together. However, some users have also disliked this usage of one user's country to make messy wars for fun. In response to this criticism, Patriot created the Zemeorilian Power Struggle as a CPS-inspired timeline that takes place in Zemeorilia instead of Cynetia.
