Afro-Arabian Union

#### Creation

Afro-Arabia was a regional power, turned global superpower that dominated Africa and Arabia, it was formed from the merging of The African Union, Egyptian Empire and Arabian Federation. It has a federal government system, being split up into 8 states, Egypt, Atlantis, Guinea, East Coast/Central Africa, Boer/Congo, South Africa, Arabia and Chad.

#### The Fall

After starting the first world war of the server, and bringing Chinese and Vietnamese soldiers into African land, many citizens were unhappy, and internal conflict arose within the Afro-Arabian government. After showing weakness in the war, a group of warlords attempted to overthrow the king, yeeteristaken. Due to the pressure of war and the constant backlash, the King surrendered in the sieges of Egypt (Now renamed to Cairo) and South Egypt, then passed down the leadership to the Governor of South Africa and declared independence. The towns of New Alemein, Atlantis, South Atlantis and Kampala all chose to join the new Egyptian nation. The leader of South Africa, Th3\_L1nk handed over his newly acquired power to LGBTQSLAYR, moving the capital to JAJAJA.

This was actually the second independence movement of the nation, one of the smaller states, Chad, had also recently become independent, although for now, only as a town, not a nation. Egypt and the Mughal Empire has chosen to fund it's new nation though.

Not long after the Egyptian Independence, the Crusader States joined the war on China's side and began invading Arabia. Multiple Arabian cities, all of whom had being considering a revolution, now decided to become independent. The towns of Baghdad, Riyadh and Dubai joined this new nation. Around this time, Nile also joined the Crusader States, and Djibouti briefly rejoined the European Federation, before becoming independent once again.

Because of the loss of all these towns and states, and the change in leadership, Afro-Arabia refromed into the Islamic Caliphate. The Afro-Arabian Union/Federated States of Africa lasted for a total of ~23 days. The nation peaked at 70+ people, becoming the second biggest nation at the time. It was also briefly the nation with by far, the most towns and the most claimed townblocks.

## Past Leaders

### AlexanderWine

The Federated States of Africa, the first nation that would evolve into Afro-Arabia, was made from the merging of Egypt and the African Union. The African Union was lead by AlexenderWine, who became the de facto leader of the FSA and later, Afro-Arabia.

### TheeLoaf

Due to personal reasons, AlexanderWine stepped down as leader and decided to hold an election with candidates picked out by him. The options were TheeLoaf (an ex-citizen of the capital and leader of their colony in Greenland), yeeteristaken (the governor of Egypt), ArabianSteve (The Governor of Arabia), although he chose not to run, and the final option was a collective leadership. TheeLoaf won, with only one more vote than a collective leadership.

### Collective Leadership/yeeteristaken

When TheeLoaf became president, the capital was moved to an underdeveloped colony in Greenland, which Loaf decided was less than ideal, so he agreed to make the nation a shared power between the 8 state leaders. The King rank was handed over to yeeteristaken, so Cairo/Egypt would become the capital. Although all state leaders now had power over the nation, yeeteristaken acted as the de facto leader, as Head Diplomat and usually the nation's main representative.

### Th3\_L1nk

After the beginning of World War One, yeeteristaken struggled to keep the citizens of Afro-Arabia content. Cairo and 2 nearby towns were all invaded by China and Vietnam, and the biggest nation on the server was threatening to get involved in the war on China's side. When Th3\_L1nk, FakeLc22 and LGBTQSLAYR attempted to overthrow yeeteristaken, he decided he had had enough, and gave the leadership to Th3\_L1nk, surrendered to China, left Afro-Arabia and made a new nation, with funding from their allies in Indonesia.

### LGBTQSLAYR

After Th3\_L1nk was given the title of King, he decided to pass the power over to the fierce warlord, LGBTQSLAYR. The nation was renamed to the Islamic Caliphate, and this mutated AAU invaded Europe and brought the Great War to a whole new front. Not long after this, the State of Atlantis joined Egypt, Arabia left as well to form the Abbasid Caliphate. With 2 of the 3 original nations gone, a new king, a new capital, and the nation being renamed once more, to Wakanda, it was agreed that the time of the Afro-Arabian Union was over, and the time of Wakanda was just begining.

## The States

### Central Africa:

This state is the home of the nation's capital city, Boer Republic. The state also includes most of Central Africa and the Congo, and one or two other towns. Boer was originally part of the African Union, before the merge.

Cities: Boer Republic (Capital), African Greenland, Lesotho (Debated between SA and Boer)

### Egypt:

Egypt was originally it's own nation, called the Egyptian Empire, not only that but the biggest nation in all of Africa and Arabia. They chose to unite with the African Union to become more powerful and to unite Africa under one nation. Right now, it has 6 towns.

Cities: Cairo, *formerly Egypt,* (Capital), New Alemein City, South Egypt, Khartoum (Collapsed), Nile, Turkish Outpost (Collapsed).

### Atlantis:

Atlantis was also part of the Egyptian Empire, but not long after Egypt and the African Union merged, Atlantis decided to become it's own state, due to the large distance between it and most of Egypt's cities.

Cities: Atlantis (Capital), South Atlantis.

### Arabia:

Arabia was also originally it's own nation, called the Arab Federation. It was formed by member of the Greater Arabian Alliance, which Egypt was actually a part of. Following a war against Palestine, Arabia was very weak, so they agreed to merge with their allies in Africa, turning the Federated States of Africa, into The Afro-Arabian Union.

Cities: Baghdad (Capital), Amman, Amed (Collapsed), Damascus (Collapsed), Aqlib, Riyadh, Hejaz, Dubai, Lebanon (Collapsed).

### Chad:

Cities: Grasandia (Capital).

### Guinea:

Guinea is a collection of ex-German colonies, formally know as German Guinea, German Libreville and West German Guinea. They originally joined The African Union, but left to avoid conflict, before eventually rejoining not long after the merge.

Cities: Central Guinea (Capital), West Guinea, South Guinea, Togoland.

### South Africa:

South Africa was a small, but powerful town that chose to join the nation not long after Egypt and The African Union merged. They joined because they wanted to fight wars against colonists, and also because they were close allies with the nation.

Cities: South Africa (Capital), Maseru, Boer Republic

### East Coast:

The East Coast is the newest state, which consists of 2 towns in Central Africa.

Cities: Dar Es Salaam (Capital), Kampala.

### Aksum:

Aksum only recently joined the nation officially, and has lost the vast majority of it's population, so it isn't fully considered a state, but they function as part of the AAU and the citizens agreed to join the nation following a vote.

Cities: Gondar (Capital).

## Wars and Conflicts

### Before the merge:

#### Egyptian Pirate War

The Egyptian Pirate was a short conflict in Egypt on September 3rd, the first day of the server's creation. It started after two pirates attempted to rob Egypt. After they were unsuccessful, they were imprisoned and forced to TP home. They later returned, ready to fight. This was the first and only battle of the Egyptian Pirate War. There was one death on either side. The Pirates retreated when one of them was about to die for a second time. The Pirates threatened to involve the Soviet Union, but the Soviets chose to stay out of the war.

Egypt was victorious in this war.

#### World War One: China vs The World

After conflict arose between China and Australasia, Australasia and Indonesia teamed up and called in all their allies, which at the time included Egypt. Indonesia's leader payed Egypt enough money to become a nation, so they would be more willing to fight. There were several battles throughout the war. The ones in which Egypt fought in were The "Blockade" of China/Battle of Hanoi and The Battle of the Nile, which took place in one of Egypt's towns. In the end, Indonesia and Australasia, now merged (with Suomi too) to create Eurolasia, brokered a peace deal with China. They both agreed to end the war, leaving it with no real winners.

Both sides came to an agreement to end the war.

### After the merge:

#### Crusader Conquest War

Upon hearing that Egypt's oldest enemy, Palestine/Cruader States was invading their allies in Arabia, the newly formed Federated States of Africa joined the war and began defending Damascus against the Palestinians. There was one battle and two sieges in this war. The siege of Antioch, in which the Crusaders surrendered, and the Siege of Damascus, which had a clear lead on the defending side, but both sides agreed to end. The only battle was the Battle of the Syrian Desert. It was between three Egyptians and two Palestinians. The Palestinians retreated before any deaths occurred. The leaders of Egypt, Crusader States and The Arabian Federation decided to make peace, and created the Treaty of Jerusalem, which stated that Egypt would be given Sinai, that Damascus and Amman would retract their borders to allow Jerusalem to expand once more, and for the Crusaders to give up all their towns, except Jerusalem, Ankara and Phoenicia. The Arabian Federation merged with the FSA shortly after this war.

Both sides came to an agreement to end the war.

#### African Anti-Colonialist War

After lots of discussions, the Afro-Arabians decided to finally strike against the European Colonialists, starting with their biggest enemy, Belgium. Siges were started in the colonies of Congo and Chadonia. The AAU got a strong lead in Chadonia, but suffered defeats in the 2 Battles of the Congo. Eventually Chadonia collapsed due to inactivity, and the siege of Congo got cancelled due to a server restart, so the war was temporarily put on hold. Due to their mutual hate for Belgium, China and the AAU teamed up, and got help from their mutual ally of Palestine to invade Brussels. After a stunning victory, Belgium collapsed. The leader stepped down, Djibouti was granted independence and the rest of Belgium joined the European Federation.

The AAU was victorious in this war.

#### World War One

After receiving a threat of invasion from China, a group of African soldiers began a siege in Beijing, in order to be the first to attack. This spiralled out into a multiple front war in four different continents, with approximately twelve nations getting involved. This war was originally known as the Afro-Chinese War, but it was decided that it would be considered the first World War of the server, once more global superpowers got involved.

#### Collapse and Successor States

The people of Grasandia (Chad) where tired of being unnoticed and teased resulting in declaration of independence. FakeLC22 and Th3\_L1nk didn't appear to care in the eyes of Grasandia. This made Grasandia angered, and they thought about joining China to burn South Africa. Grasandia is still in the union but will leave when they get 110k.

Upon Egypt separating to form the Saharan States, former towns of the 1st Arabian Federation formed the 2nd Arab Federation (Now Abbasid Caliphate). The Saharan States took much of North Africa, and Kampala. The remaining Rump-state of the Afro-Arabian Union became known as the Islamic Alliance, a state which would rebuild itself, and later become a superpower.
