October First Crisis

The October First Crisis was a major event in the Republic of Discord which happened in October 1, 2020. The Crisis is popularly rumoured to have never happened due to it's alleged intensity. The events were sparked after the growing influence of the Von Klue crime family and the resulting coup attempted by Fusion. In response to the instabilities, then president Fennec unknowingly declared several illegal executive orders such as martial law within the Republic. As such, he was sued and was to be trialed by the Supreme Court, Fennec however chose to resign instead of facing impeachment, as he did not want to be impeached for what he saw as protecting the Republic. Fennec was however pardoned by the admins for his unintentional illegal actions, and was made president again shortly after.  
As a result of seeing how Fennec was treated, the Technocratic led Senate (Fennec's party) was provoked to attempting a declaration of senate dictatorship. Then Senator Society drafted the "Emergency Powers Act" which consolidated power into the Senate, the bill passed Senate, however it was never signed in by the President. Immediate post-crisis events after the October First Crisis are unclear, and Fennec's presidency and administration continued as normal. Many say the events never happened, and some claim that the events did happen and was officially retconned by the admins in order to keep stability in the server.
