Netterix Administration

The **Netterix Administration** began on February 14, 2014, and ended on September 26, 2016.

## First term

Netterix began his administration with the passing of three acts through the 3rd Ninzard Senate: Legion Liberties Act, Protections Act of 2014, and the Yes Swearing Act.

Afterwards, the community experienced an unprecedented period of *tranquility*. As a result, the community as a whole was relatively uneventful. Hybridex, however, experienced a lot of drama, especially in the political realm.

### Phoenix blackmail

Behind the scenes, however, Antares began to initiate his plot to gain full power. Netterix and Antares had tried to strike a deal with Senator Phoenix, asking him to switch over to the Resistance Party. The Neomovement Party was on the verge of death due to the Sounddy Administration. With the community's new period of peace, it was likely that Phoenix would lose to a Universal Party candidate if he were to run under the Neomovement Party again. Phoenix did not hesitate to accepted the deal and ensured he would run under the Resistance Party in the next senate election.

Antares, however, also demanded that he ensure full loyalty from Phoenix. To this demand, Phoenix said he did not want allegiance to anybody. However, unknown to Phoenix, Antares had the personal information of Phoenix, including his personal identity, which Phoenix wanted to keep a secret from the online portion of the community. However, due to having plenty of interactions with Ninzardia's members in real life, it was very likely that Antares had extracted this information from one of those people. Antares also had Phoenix's home address as well as other sensitive information that Phoenix did not want leaked. Antares, initiating a blackmail, stated that this was not just a simple "request" but it was an order and that if he would not swear allegiance to Antares, he would expose all of this information to the community.

Phoenix, who was scared shitless, complied to Antares's demands and became forcefully loyal to him.

### Politics in Hybridex

General of Hybridex, Bananable, continued his efforts to expand his legion. However, he had become increasingly annoyed over Phoenix's influence, who he perceived as being against the Hybridex agenda. This caused him to decide to run against Phoenix in the next senate election. This served as a severe threat to Phoenix, who was up against a high-profile candidate. As a result of this, the Netterix Administration began a series of attack campaigns against Bananable. They used the previous Hybridex Deal in 2012 as a way to question Bananable's morality. Phoenix also used his real life connections as an advantage, directly asking members of Hybridex to help him win his election.

By late June, just a series of attacks escalated into outright slander against Bananable, who had started being called "racist," "dishonest," and "fake."

This proved successful, as Phoenix won his re-election as a member of the Resistance Party.

## Second Term

Having easily won re-election, Netterix began his second term much differently than his "reformer-style" first term. During his first time, Antares and Netterix had both been plotting to create a new "president-like" position that Antares would take charge of. This position would be higher than the Governor of Ninzardia. They passed a bill that did not explicitly state these intentions. Rather, the bill stated a new rank called the *President of Ninzardia* would be created and would have to be elected every year rather than every six months like the senators and governors. Most members of the community were split on the idea, however, every senator began espousing support while trying to convince every member that it was a great idea. They used arguments such as *balancing stability* if the president role is created.

While the senators were supportive, the generals were not. General Zap, who Antares saw as "an annoying pest" lambasted the idea and suggested that Antares just wanted to climb back into absolute power and abuse more than he did during the Antares Administration. Senator Xorbit tried to convince Zap to lay back and state it "was not a big deal." Trusting Xorbit, Zap laid back and toned down his attacks against Antares. In regards to the 2014 Ninzardia presidential election, Zap did not run, as he feared what had happened to Senator Bananable—an outright slander campaign against him. He also believed he would not win the election, especially considering Antares always had a plan in mind and his ability to convince voters. Zap also felt his age, being the youngest of the leaders, would contribute to his loss and unpopularity. He had already felt a form of an *inferiority complex* due to this age gap.

### Scandal

After slander campaigns continued throughout. These plans began to become revealed by the Police Operations Team under Psionic.
