1st Lexonian War of Independence

== Overview ==
The 1st Lexonian War of Independence was a conflict fought by poorly armed Lexon millitia groups and the RoP government, Lexon's leadership believed themselves to be the successor to the Kingdom of Albertville, even taking their name from the attempted Albertville colony of Lexon, that started the War of June 18th. The conflict ended in the surrender of the Lexonian Forces to the RoP Government.
== History ==
=== Beginning ===
With the new map, New Nethy believed that the RoP government was not in a suitable position to put down independence movements across the world. Unbenknowst to New Nethy the last remaining state on the server other than the RoP, the Nation of Bluefield were partaking in talks to end the Second Split with the Treaty of Oasis. New Nethy regretted ending Albertville following him taking charge of the state during the Albertville Protests and Failed Coup. So New Nethy viewed a new independent Lexon as a return to form and a redemption for his negative actions taken against the Albertvillian State. This would lead to New Nethy constructing two buildings in the small town which he had decided to build near the world spawn and from there declare it independent. New Nethy was completely not ready for open combat when he declared war as he believed that he would not need to fight as they hoped that the Nation of Bluefield would send them aid forcing the RoP to back down and surrender to a new alliance of Lexon and Bluefield similar to AIDN between Albertville and Bluefield.
=== End of the War ===
The 1st Lexonian War of Independence is one of the shortest wars of Polynesia, with it just being over an hour long and with all events occuring on the 26th of June 2020. The shortness was due to the rapid end of the war with New Nethy surrendering after rogue RoP millitary members lead by Sealand wished to disregard Brit's orders and collapse any attempt of new independence as Sealand was already a key member of the ongoing negotiations of the Treaty of Oasis which saw the end of multiple states and the reorganisation of the RoP to become a federation with the States System. New Nethy backed down quickly after easy negotiations. New Nethy did not have the support of Bluefield at all in his rebellion as the war happened so early into the new map that nobody was willing to support him in the war. New Nethy was unpunished by the RoP Government following his unconditional surrender as the entire RoP Government was completley occupied with the ongoing negotiations. New Nethy supported the Treaty of Oasis and was a key backer of it once it was released to the public and his State of Lexon was the 2nd official registered state, behind only Bluefield.
=== Who Won the War? ===
1st Lexonian War of Independence was officialy won by the Republic of Polynesia as the Lexon Millitia lead by New Nethy surrendered unconditionally without any deaths and without destruction, However it can be argued that the Republic of Polynesia and Lexon were bound to fight more wars after this and the only way the future Lexonian Wars of Independence could of been stopped were if New Nethy was seriously punished for his actions in the war.

Unlike many other wars of independence fought on Polynesia, such as the Albertville War of Independence and the Circhester War of Independence, Lexon did not declare independence as a state, but instead New Nethy declared a war for independence of Lexon using a small militia force in Lexon. This local millitia was fractured and its membership and support is unknown as the war was presumabley a spontaneous action by New Nethy with the percieved instabilty of the Republic of Polynesia to fight back against any rebellion due to the new map. These Militia groups are seen as the first incarnations of future organisations within Lexon such as the Lexon Revolutionary Army and the rebel state of the Kingdom of Lexon.
=== Republic of Polynesia ===
The RoP was at a strong point despite the new map meaning an economic reset. Most players on the server were united behind the Unity Coalition Government at this point and were all excited to see things get off the ground again with the new season. Despite this it was presumed the RoP could not defeat a new rebellion especially one backed by Bluefield. The RoP was able to defend though and over the next period of Micronesia the RoP Army was proved to be relatively strong, tactical and capable of the defense of the state,

Battle Info:
The first actions of the war was the RoP 1st Division scrambling itself together and arriving in Lexon, The Army was relatively prepared for the time, considering how fast it had been since the new map started. Initially the RoP were able to capture the town and took roof top positions to corner New Nethy and any other possible forces that could arrive as it was presumed that Belg would back the rebellion and declare his own town, Stirling, his own independent state similar to Albertville. However, this did not happen, and so the RoP 1st Division decided to wait New Nethy out with a siege of his personal home, which was acting as the main headquarters of the Lexon rebels. New Nethy was unable to fight back due to an intense lack of supplies that had had not accounted for when declaring the war. New Nethy at first refused to surrender to the RoP Forces hoping that Bluefield would arrive on the scene and push RoP forces out of Lexon allowing for an easy victory in the war. Bluefield did not support the rebellion though viewing it as an unnecessary rebellion as Lexon didn't have a separate culture to the rest of the RoP, other than New Nethy previously being a citizen of Albertville. At this point New Nethy kept deciding not to surrender, causing some RoP forces lead by Sealand burning parts of Lexon, before putting the fire out as a threat to New Nethy. Despite breaking ranks with this move, it made New Nethy accept an unconditional surrender as he understood that at this point Bluefield would not come to his aid and that he was completely unmatched in a conflict against the RoP.
