2021 Albian political scandal

The 2021 Albian political scandal was an event occurring in the nation of Albia. On the 1st of November, 2021, an unknown source posted to DiarPin documents posing as supposed confidential files relating to the government and the Albian president, Desmond Amenson. The documents made the claim that the government had been taking bribes from Commolacia and Fortland - in reaction, Commolacia denied any involvement in Albian politics, while Fortland's head of state, Jayden Albert, reacted humourously. In addition, the document said that several Albian spies had been sent to Jonathia, Lyvena, Canadia, and Poland, in a supposed attempt to keep anti-Commolacian sentiment at a minimum.
Despite the leak being fake, civilian reaction was poor. Many Albian citizens and politicians took to social media, calling for either the resignation or an impeachment trial of president Amenson. The protests turned violent as the authorities, sent to stop the protesters from gaining access to the Hetterhauz, opened fire on the crowd. In reaction, the crowd armed themselves, and a riot began. Eventually, rioters seized control of major government buildings as the president and several cabinet members evacuated to Lyvena, and in turn, the Albian Civil War began.
