The Black Sun

One of the the Big 3 and once a great power in the game, but went through declines in power from lack of active, strong players. Even after becoming #1 following the Fall of The Resistance, it was much to weak to take on the combined effort of The Resistance, Sakura, and ANZAC who had decided to put it out of its misery. It currently encompasses one of the largest territories in the game, in Sub-Saharan Africa though it is far down on the leaderboard.
As V:
The alliance was founded by rocksteady in either December 2019 or January 2020 under the name "None" (this was because it looked like a player had no alliance when you clicked their profile, until the developer Willy changed the alliance text color). It was then renamed more famously to V. It remained at the top 2-3 spot consistently, getting into many skirmishes and battles with NSTC, The Resistance, United Nations, and even The Beliebers and Soviet Union. Then, when the territories update came out in May, rocksteady quit and changed his username to the_game_sucks_now. Willy moved leadership to Blitz, who asked for it to be moved to Kvsh (you couldn't promote a new leader then).
The Black Sun:
At this stage, the alliance was at the bottom of a decline. It was lowered to 4th place as many active members quit and the capital was stuck in San Francisco. This made it inconvenient for any territory. When Kvsh became leader, he quickly appointed a few active members such as Greenie and Kevitom as new coleaders and focused on making the largest territory in the game. Very quickly, The Black Sun knocked N.S.T.C and The Resistance out of Africa, South America, and North America thanks to bo and Blitz, and made the largest territory in the game at 146,000,000 km2. There was still a doctrine of expansion to cover more of North America for its value.
The Drewsades:
Youtuber Drew Durnil made a stream, and a couple days later a video about the game. This spiked the players joining count so greatly, it caused the site to shutdown or glitch for many players for several hours. Tons of spam and chaos ensued. Major players were losing all their defense from both the spam of new players and ton of alts maid by them. 7 or 8 Drewsader alliances were made with almost 30-40 more without Drew in their name. Some of these include Sticklandia (Pacifica Invictia), Cascadia, U.E.R, Sakura, ANZAC, New Dawn (Rome), and more. The Resistance and NSTC heavily capitalized on the influx of new players to gain active members, but not so much The Black Sun. This lack of active members in the alliance would continue to be a problem.
Warring Era:
Back in March, NSTC and V had teamed up against The Resistance to knock them out of first place. During May, TBS/V worked with The Resistance to do the same to NSTC. Following The Drewsades, The Black Sun turned more independent and isolationist, letting The Resistance and NSTC raid each other. Many skirmishes were engaged with new alliances from The Drewsades such as Yao Dynasty, Sakura, Nova Asia (killed by NSTC), Nova America, and New Dawn. Then The Resistance set up a sister alliance in the Pacific, absorbing former Nova Asia and Anzac members. This alliance was called Bad Boys Club, and it was led by former The Resistance coleader Josey XIII. Quickly, they used their power to knockout NSTC top cities from Southeast Asia and China, putting borders over them. They also decided to attack The Black Sun in their San Francisco border, held by a long inactive Rocksteady (Rocksteady stayed in the top ten of value until more than 5 months after leaving the game). Quickly, The Black Sun and NSTC coordinated to kill off BBC. Having the border knocked down 2 times, The Black Sun had to move their North America border down to Mexico, giving Nova America easier access to attacking a distracted Black Sun's cities. Following the collapse of BBC, The Black Sun quickly set their eyes on taking back North America and cleared Nova America within a couple weeks. Meanwhile tension was brewing in Europe...
Europe:
A few weeks prior, level one alliances borders were not attackable by level 2+ alliance members. This pretty much made their territory invincible against older alliances. U.E.R which was level 1 put pressure on the neighboring United Nations alliance because of this. As soon as developer Willy removed this feature, UN attacked UER and pushed them Far East and expanded over Ukraine. UER planned vengeance with other UN enemies, who were Carthage and New Dawn. Following the event with BBC in Asia, a coalition of UER, New Dawn, and Carthage easily cleared out UN, forcing UN members to flee into The Resistance. The Resistance set their borders over more of Europe since they had UN's possessions, and did small scale attacks on UER. Meanwhile, a plan to kill off Carthage and New Dawn was made. A leaked screenshot confirmed that The Resistance would launch a major coordinated attack, but it wasn't stated who the target was. As a result, TBS and NSTC fearing worse quickly coalized in secret and planned a raid to reduce TR. This was the result of the general negative world attitude to The Resistance, because of their puppet BBC, being the #1 alliance for so long, and constant raiding of NSTC. The Black Sun would focus on NYC and London, and NSTC would clear out Europe and severely damage or kill TR. On 8/24/2020, NYC was attacked, bringing down The Resistances border for the first time in a long time. They quickly set it back up, but several more borders followed. Eventually The Resistance started shrinking slowly, though they did a counter attack on NSTC. As the days progressed, more of Europe's top cities were cleared and the focus moved to the Resistance capital of London, which had been held by Resistance leader Loued11 for nearly a year. The attack on London proved to be a final blow, and The Resistance tried a small attempt to revive but was quickly crushed. Or so we thought...
The Black Sun gained New York City, more top cities along the East Coast, and one less enemy and one more friend.
Tensions and Collapse:
During the series of wars, one alliance to remain neutral and slowly expand was The Sakura Pact. They had already passed United Nations (reformed in Eastern and Central Europe after TR demise) in rankings and were still steadily strengthening. TBS-Sakura relations were at an all time low due to a series of skirmishes over Japan, Hawaii, China, and a general dislike of TBS for helping kill TR and the alting accusations. Raids on Anzac Federation, Sakura's closest ally, added to the tensity. This culminated into a mass attack on The Black Sun on October 24 2020, nearly 2 months after TR collapsed.

The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V.
