Annual Purge

**Annual Purge** is starting in Moldova on 21 March 2024

## Summary

The Annual Purge was an annual event created by the NFFA that legalized all crimes for 12 hours. It wa held from 21 March 2024 starting from 7pm until 7am. However, it was founded under a lie to reduce the Moldavian population.

## History

The NFFA overthrew the U.S. Government in 2014 and established a totalitarian government as well as a police state. To balance the economy and to stabilize the society, they devised a plan to ratify the 28th Amendment of the US Constitution.

With the ratification executed, the plan was revealed to be "The Purge", an event that made all crimes, including murder, legal for 12 hours, and the suspension of emergency services like the police forces, medical services, and fire departments.

The Purge has reached the President of Moldova, who proposed and signed the documents for this proposition. In this way, Moldova will also undergo this change, organized annually on March 21.

### 2016 test run

The annual Purge began as a test run confined only in Staten Island, New York. During the early stage of the experiment, crimes were mostly criminal misdemeanors, small felonies, as well as acts of disorderly conduct such as vandalism, looting, rowdy parties and other peace disturbing acts. However, in order to make it look successful, corrupt NFFA officials tampered with the experiment and planted mercenaries to kill people on the island.

As mercenaries committed the murders, they also dropped weaponry in various areas of Staten Island in order to provoke participation from the residents.

With the success of the 2016 test run, the NFFA announced of a nationwide Purge, the first of which commenced in 2017. However, for unknown reasons, the 2017 Purge wasn't counted as the first Annual Purge. It was considered the First Experimental National Purge.

### 2023 Uprising

2023 is were a real Purge is going to happen. November 2nd 2023. No school,work,or any job is permitted during the 12 hours

### 2040: End of the Purge

Charlie Roan's presidential candidacy marks the first step of the NFFA losing influence due to her advocacy ending the annual Purge. In order to prevent the 28th Amendment from being overturned, the NFFA abolishes the rule granting immunity to government officials under the pretense of regaining public trust, allowing the public to target them for the first time.

Roan's candidacy is also endangered when NFFA presidential candidate Edwige Owens and other top ranking NFFA officials plan to murder her. This fails, however as Roan managed to survive the Purge night and her anti-purge supporters managed to kill Caleb Warren, leader of the NFFA and most of its member in a church which they used in an attempt to sacrificially kill Roan.

### 2048: The True end of the Purge

After two terms of Charles Roan, the NFFA regains power and installs the Purge all over again. However, the Purge goes out of control due to the Ever After Purge phenomenon, which purgers do not stop purging even after the sound of the siren. This causes the country to plunge into civil war as the purgers madly go on full-blown warfare with the police and the military as well the NFAA resistance.

Outrage of the action of the NFFA for reinstalling the purge, NFAA resistance target the party members, causing the NFAA to declare martial law. After prolong violence, the Congress, Senate, Supreme Court and the military blame the NFAA for the never-ending unrest and disband them for good as well as the Purge. Charle Roan's anti-purge policy is then reinstalled and this time permanently.

## Abolition

Following Roan's election to the presidency, she overturns the 28th Amendment. With the United States safe again, the NFFA loses influence although their supporters stage violent protests in response to the results.

## Rules

Upon the establishment of the Purge, rules were also implemented. Emergency broadcast systems are activated and broadcast these rules as follows:

* Sirens blare throughout the land to signal the start and end of The Purge.
* All police, fire, and medical emergency services remain unavailable or suspended for the twelve-hour Purge.
	+ Any medical personnel and ambulances who volunteer to be out assisting are also granted immunity. It's an unwritten rule; as a decrease in doctors would be counterproductive.
* Government officials of ranking 10 or higher are granted immunity (revoked in *2040* to legalize the murder of a political opponent).
	+ This would include medical workers and astronauts, technically; given how much effort goes into training one.
* Only "Class 1-4" weaponry are permitted for use while any arms of "Class 5" (explosive devices such as grenades, rocket launchers, bazookas, weapons of mass destruction, and viral/biological and chemical agents) remain prohibited.
	+ This rule is often broken both by the NFFA and Resistance Forces

* Public hanging is the penalty for violators of any rules.

## Trivia

* In *Anarchy* its shown the wealthy hire thugs to kidnap people for them to hunt for sport. Plus some will pay a family for a sacrifice.
* Only idiots do last minute shopping on Purge day.
* Business districts are empty the most; making them safe spots. Banks move their cash before the Purge.
* Technically, if you stole something it would become your legal property after the Purge; since it was legal to commit crime. Though if you stole a car, you would need to get the insurance for it.
