Holy American Empire

The Holy American Empire, also known as AragaSeriously? Who writes this shit? and previously called the Holy American Federation, was a major nation in Doom's World, being situated in North America. It was founded and originally led by King Sikorskiii, with the helm being taken up by the Regency Council after his demotion and ban.
== Government ==
The government of the Holy American Federation was that of a federal parliamentary monarchy, with there being two main components: the king and the Congress. The king was the head of state and government who held, for the most part, absolute power over the nation. On the other hand, the Congress was the legislature of the nation, being composed of the governors of each state; important decisions such as declarations of war or the establishment of alliances were left to it.
After King Sikorskiii was demoted and banned from the server, the Regency Council was formed, which was composed of Zack, Skali, and Mich. The Regency Council reformed the federation into an empire, with Sikorskiii being the de jure emperor, and adopted a modified version of the Aragan National Constitution from Earth World Mark VI. In essence, the Regency Council replaced the Congress as the legislature of the nation.
== Geography==
The Holy American Empire is composed of multiple polities, including five states (one of which being autonomous), one dominion, and one overseas territory. They are:
*Allegheny — a state situated in around the IRL northeastern United States.
*Canada — a dominion situated in IRL southern Ontario and Quebec.
*Caribbean — a state situated in the Caribbean islands.
*Chattanooga — a state situated in the IRL southeastern United States.
*Escambria — an autonomous state situated in southern Louisiana.
*Mahoning — a state situated around the Great Lakes.
*Gibraltar — an overseas territory situated around the Gibraltar strait.
==History==
The Holy American Federation was founded on August 27th, 2018, the day Doom's World launched. From the beginning it was set to become a major nation, being one of the most populated nations and owning a vast amount of territory off the bat. Cities soon emerged, with Lancaster, Cleveland, Norfolk, among others having begun construction.
On August 30th, two members of Venetia, TeamVeteran and Isaac, looted and raided the Holy American Federation, stealing shulker boxes and other kinds of blocks. They were accused of taking more than 9 stacks and having taken "admin items" from the chests by HAF members. This stirred controversy, considering the chests were out in public and how taking shulker boxes applied to the 9 stack looting cap was not specified in the rules. Nonetheless, TeamVeteran and Isaac were eventually banned.
On September 5th, several members of the HAF raided Japan, mainly to torment with DoomShroom, who was a member of that nation.
On December 26th, Sikorskiii was demoted from server admin and banned for allegedly spawning in and duplicating items. This put the Holy American Federation into a brief crisis as the king had been banned indefinitely. In response, the Regency Council was formed a day later by Skali, Zack, and Mich to lead the nation. The Regency Council as such voted to reform the nation into the Holy American Empire, proclaimed themselves as Araga, and adopted a modified form of the Aragan National Constitution.
On December 27th, the same day the Regency Council was formed, the Holy American Empire declared war on Carthage, DoomShroom's newly formed nation. The city was quickly annihilated by American forces, with Doom being unable to stop them. The HAE offered peace terms to DoomShroom, to which Doom refused as they wanted to make Araga's victory "as painful as possible." At some point all the Americans had logged off the server, thus making Doom unable to grief them legally. The next day on December 28th, Mich apparently logged onto the server, forgetting the war was still ongoing, allowing for Doom to do considerable damages to settlements in the HAF. Despite this, Carthage ended up losing the war after a deal was worked out between Skali and Doom; the peace treaty, referred to as the Treaty of Paris, was signed at around 5:00 PM the same day. The terms of this treaty were:
1. Everything in Araga that was griefed by Doom is rolled back
2. Carthage will become part of French Africa
3. Doom is forbidden from making a nation in the Americas
4. Doom will be an Aragan puppet nation on the island of Socotra
5. Doom is forbidden from entering the Americas until Dan is unbanned
6. Doom MUST live on Socotra (until Dan is unbanned)
7. Doom has to help France in resource gathering, deforestation and digging projects
Eventually Sikorskiii was unbanned and things began to return back to normal for the HAE. Construction on cities such as New Orleans began to pick up as the new year rolled around and activity of members on the server was at an all time high. It would all be abruptly halted though, when Doom's World closed suddenly on January 23rd, 2019.
