## Background

### Sealand Government

The Sealand Government had been formed despite the OWF only coming third in the election and at first the Government could be seen as being relatively popular amongst the people of the server, however Sealands government would be critisiced as it would appear that Sealands minister of the interior, Kai would be doing practically all of the legislative action.

Sealands government would also see two scandals, the first occuring on September 11th 2022 when Kara and Deckiee had been attacking player Spaghettio, a supporter of Sealands due to allegations of him stealing an item from Zilo. In response Sealand would partake in an attempted assasination of Kara, an event which Kara would record a video of, the release of the footage would go on to haunt Sealands government until his resignation.

The Second Scandal would occur on the 13th of September 2022, Only two days after the original controversy. Sealand was caught at an illegal party on private property with no permission to be there, In attenedence was various figures including Sealands Minister of Social Services, Belg, Player Warwax who had allegedely bribed Sealand and Belg to ignore him owning masses of explosives, as well as both Spaghettio and Kara, key players from the previous scandal. Zilo, as a member of the Republican Guard would release images of the event damaging Sealands reputation.

### September Recession

*(Main Article September Recession)*

Sealands financial policy was decided mainly by Minister of Interior Kai and one of Kais main ideas to encoruage the use of Quid was to create a Bazaar which allowed players to use markets without having to go through the papework of forming an officialy company. The plan would be succesfull allowing for an economic boom at the start of the month. However, The fact that players could make these markets without being a buisness meant that a loophole in the law had opened up which allowed Private individuals to ignore the rules set out for buisnesses.

This loophole was exploited by Zilo especially who lowered all his prices to rockbottom on luxury goods making players spend masses of money on items with an undefined value, pricing out all his competition making them drop their prices even further, this would make some players invest in these rockbottom goods believing prices would recover, which they wouldnt. After this, Kai would solve the issue by fixing the legislation making Private individuals also have to adhere to guidelines set out for companies. Alongside this in a move massively critisiced by his fellow Ministers Sealand would give a care package of 200 Quid to everyone with a balance of below 500 Quid, which only excluded Zilo, Printing the most money anyone had ever printed up to that point. Whilst critisiced it was one of the reasons for the OWFs success in the Second Rosavian Election,

### Zika Coup and Kai Government

(Main Article Zika Coup)

The Zika movement was lead by Kara and Zilo against Sealands government, Sealand would respond with his resignation upon hearing of the killing of civillians by the pair, Seeing Kai to take over as Prime Minister bypassing the rightful successor, Jules of the SNF who had been Sealands Deputy Prime Minister in exchange for their parties support.

The Zika movement would collapse as popular support was fully against them and a mass protest movement had been able to surround the parliament, Lead by the OWF millitia which had been organised by Sealand and Walter "Fingers" White. This would be the peak of the OWFs support at the time and allowed them for a smooth campaign in the election to see them come out on top, Kai would act as a caretaker government following the Zika movements defeat with Sealand saying he wanted a snap election rather than to return to his premiership.

## Aftermath

The immediate aftermath of the election came with Member of Parliament Flanders dissolving his party, the Party for Workers and Freedom due to its stagnation at the election. After this reaction to the election, Truman of the AFLF would be endorsed by the OWF, the victors, the CUR who had rebranded from the RDRP and were lead by Kai along with Georges RPM. Trumans government would be tasked with dealing with an immediate crisis with the secession of Crestmont.
