New Tree Clan

The **New Tree Clan** is a major political power within the Yellow Springs National School High School of Excellence and the Continent. It is considered by its citizens to be the successor to the Tree Clan. Like the Tree Clan, the New Tree Clan government describes itself as a Constitutional Democratic Monarchist Oligarchic Empire.

### History

#### Early History

The New Tree Clan was formed during the Tree Clan Civil War, as an attempt to reform the Tree Clan from the chaotic feudal factions it had formally dissolved into. It was decided by Rain, Zun and Daar that the only proper way to form a new Tree Clan would be to invade the Capital and take it for the New Tree Clan. At the time that this was proposed, it was considered impossible due to the Teacher Clan's military presence, containing all parties involved in the Civil War within the Yellow Springs National School High School of Excellence. However, Rain and Owen were able to create and accomplish a secretive operation known as the JCOWA Plan. They used this to temporarily escape the Yellow Springs National School High School of Excellence and claim the Tree in the name of the New Tree Clan, formalizing their status as the second Tree Clan. It was decided that unless otherwise stated, all laws from the Tree Clan would carry over to the New Tree Clan. The only exception to this would be the New Tree Clan Constitution.

For several days after the JCOWA Plan, the New Tree Clan and all members of Tree Clan splinter groups existed in a state of partial Sanity for unknown reasons. Upon recovering from this state, the Tree Clan; autocratically led by Cameron, declared war on the New Tree Clan, beginning the 1st Tree Clan-New Tree Clan War. During this war, the New Tree Clan formed an alliance with the Tree Clan, while continuing to wage war with them. Also during this time, the New Tree Clan joined the Ovenant. At the end of the first day of this war, Ben would violate the Genetree Convention by using the Autocraticc spell on himself to leave the Tree Clan.

On Day 2 of the New Tree Clan Era, the New Tree Clan invaded the Coastal Territory, forcing it into an alliance with them. After this, the monarchs of the New Tree Clan started a vote, allowing Ben to join them. After this, Rain allowed Zun and Daar to join the New Tree Clan. They both retained their diplomatic positions from the Tree Clan within the New Tree Clan. Later on in this day, Ben would use the Monarcc spell on Fexin. This was a direct violation of the New Tree Clan Constitution, however the only witnesses to this other than Fexin were Zun and Daar, who both chose to ignore this with Ben's promise to ignore their continued voter's fraud. Ben and Zun then both claimed themselves as New Tree Clan Territory.

Also on Day 2, a vote passed within the New Tree Clan, to make all of Ben's votes considered negative. After this, Rain attempted to push Ben out of New Tree Clan Territory in order to exile him. This nearly caused a new Civil War within the New Tree Clan. Ben would almost immediately push himself out of New Tree Clan territory after this. He was immediately allowed to rejoin. The New Tree Clan then proceeded to invade Monrovia, capturing it as their territory. After a brief discussion, the New Tree Clan government then decided to disestablish the majority of governmental roles previously held by Tree Clan members who had joined the New Tree Clan. This was done to leave the New Tree Clan as a blank slate, to be built up as its own entity; rather than simply an attempt to copy the Tree Clan.

#### The Day of the Snow Storm

On Day 3 of the New Tree Clan's existence, a major storm swept through the Courtyard. The New Tree Clan took what little shelter they could under Monrovia, and claimed Owen's Umbrella as their territory. They then claimed four tiles of the Coastal Territory as their own. The New Tree Clan spent the rest of the day convincing Cameron to join them and founding the Terrorism Council, headed by Owen, Zun and Daar.

On this day, a force of Criminally Sane Ginkites attacked the New Tree Clan, sparking the Ginkgite War, the first major conflict with the Ginkites in a long time.

#### The Bedtimes

The New Tree Clan members woke up once again under the Tree. Notably Barccamz Asylum for the Criminally Sane 2 was missing. The Ginkgites and Gayte Remnants also seemed to have woken at roughly the same time. The members realized they once again entered a state of zealand and were just now waking up
