UOC 5

UOC 5, officially known as the Fifth Universal Olympic Championship, was an event that succeeded UOC 4. The OK Empire participated again. The championship would face issues before it even started, as most of the athletes were not accustomed to the center driving "side" of Mawbol, which forced the government to hire a crew of taxis which would bring the the contestants to the Yellowia Sports Stadium to avoid any possible problems with transport. Soon more problems would arise around the size of the Yellowia Stadium, which could possibly make some some of the sporting events harder to organize, forcing the stadium to be slightly increased along with one of the events being held in Yellow City Central Stadium. The next hard decision would be about the logo, as the government had no ideas for it. The government would announce it was looking for suggestions from the public, with over 1.3 million designs being sent in. The selected end logo was made up of a globe, which had five stripes going over which were color-coded to the Mawbol flag, with a roman five on top of it. The competition started on December 29th, 1999, had a second run on December 30th, and the final part of the championship was held on December 31st with interval entertainment acts lasting through to January 1st, 2000.

==Competition==
===December 29===
UOC 5 would start with the speech of Alexander Shuo, one of the original people who had thought about UOC.
"2 years ago, we thought of UOC in a time of conflict and discourse around the multiverse, where many many conflicts took place. We had thought of it as a friendly competition and one which can unite our worlds in a time of conflict, and to bring world peace and cooperation. While UOC 3 and 4 were major disasters, and brought about new conflicts, we pledge in the UOC Committee that will never happen again. The year 2000 will lead us to a new era of world peace and progress, and we would like to celebrate both this century and the one ahead of us. May the next year bring good luck."

===Lingering Controversy From UOC 4===
After the violent and tragic contest that same July, the 5th UOC was met with uncertainty, and many called for it not to happen. After Mawbol was announced as the host, many residents wanted the host country changed to not associate with the nature of the contest, especially since the 4th UOC wasn't completely canceled. After far higher security, interval acts, and more sports were announced, some saw this as the "rebirth of UOC," but others still didn't have faith in the UOC and wanted to boycott the contest. In November 1999, a plan was revealed to boycott the UOC on December 29th, but this never happened.
===Yellowia Stadium Size Issue===
Soon after securing their bid for hosting the 1999 UOC, the Mawbol government would get to work preparing Yellow City for the event. A inspection of all major stadiums in Yellow City would be carried out, which would judge that out of the six stadiums in the city none fit the required size to house every single event, with the least unfitting being Yellowia Sports Stadium. In July 1999, it would be chosen at the spot to house the 5th UOC, though clear improvements needed to be made to the stadium for it to be able to properly house the event. The construction of new multiple sport halls and outside sporting areas would begin, though the project would quickly run into cost issues, with contractors having to be swaped out every month due to the government being unable to grant enough money to them to keep their companies afloat. This caused the stadium's expansion to only be half complete by the end of October, which made the government worried that it may not finish the construction effort in time for the event, and while they did consider delaying it, the government in the end went against it and continued on with the original date for the championship. 
By the end of November, the government's concerns would only continue growing, as the project had once more ran into financial troubles and was nowhere near complete enough to be used for the championship, so after a week of heated debates between all of the parties, the parliament would declare that further expansion was to be halted and all that was already being worked on had to be finished by the middle of December. In the meanwhile, the government began looking for another stadium that could house one or two of the events that wouldn't be able to fit in the main stadium. After some searching, Yellow City Central Stadium would be selected as the secondary stadium for the sporting event, which brought along another wave of problems mostly surrounding the transportation of the athletes and the preparation of the stadium for it's one event, as by then the government only had around two weeks left to readjust their contract with the taxi crew and prepare the stadium, forcing a rushed rescheduling of everything planned for the event, though it wouldn't cause too many problems in the end, with the event going surprisingly well and seemingly being a revival of the UOC.
=== Attempted Murder ===
During the games on December 29th, an unknown shooter attempted to assassinate a Lavilcian athlete, however thanks to the new security, he was caught before he could lay on the trigger. Alexander Shuo commented after the competition was over in January 2000. "It's a shame. It's a shame that some still want to ruin the message of peace that the UOC was made for." Pal Letes, who represented Cynetia in UOC 4 and immediately left also commented on the incident. "The Universal Olympic Championship used to fill me with nerves that I was suddenly going to fail, now it fills me with nerves that the athletes of the contest would get hurt once more. May the improved security stop more instances like this, and better yet, may these dangerous people never come to the UOC again." The Lavilcian Governmental Minister of Sports, Alexander Though, commented: "We especially thank the fact that the UOC Committee is paying more attention to the safety and wellbeing lives of our athletes. We hope no injuries will come." When asked to comment about the shooter, he said "The shooter represented hate towards our country, but we cannot bring hate back. Violence against violence just means more violence, and we cannot use violence against terrorists, or innocent lives would be lost".
=== Biasedness ===
After the OK Empire rejoined, the Union of China, who left the last UOC, promptly stated "Alphadonia Biasdness", and announced the true reason to why they left. "The War of Wrestling, was a mere overreaction, to what was meant to be just a suspension of an athlete. One OK Athlete threw a weightlift, and now the entire country was blamed. The OK Empire was just defending itself from a drunken attack, and now it was banned from UOC 4. The UOC Committee is clearly biased and in favor of Alphadonia." Alphadonia's prime minister at the time said "Well, I mean they bombed New Furher. I can clearly see where the UOC Committee is biased." to which the OK Empire responded with "Yeah, after you drunken invaded us! Also Alphadonia is clearly having the UOC suck it up to them, because they are trying to censor us. Wow. We demand action!" It was uncovered later that the invasion didn't happen, but was proposed. After the UOC Committee marked the so called alleged drunken invasion as 'dramatized OK Empire propaganda', protests across TDW came at large. Demands were made, with quotes such as '#UnbiaseTheUOC' and '#EqualJudgementInSports' being constantly said across the world. Cynetia and Mastistan announced a “reactionary departure”, threatening to leave the competition if this ever escalated.
== Trivia ==
* The Permistan International was created in UOC 5 to distinguish the team from the Olympics in the Darkest World.
*The Kingdom of Bessarabia had openly stated it was to joined, but haven't made any preparations to do so, so it didn't represented in UOC 5.
