Second American Power Vacuum Conflict

This page needs the perspective of different people from different nations!! This was written by the leader of the Mayan Legion and it may be a bit biased or have missing information!! If you have any information please contribute!

## Overview

The American Power Vacuum conflict is a conflict that spans both north and south America. The conflict was caused by the disbanding of the Cultist Empire, causing a power vacuum (hence the name) in the western hemisphere due to the controversial perma ban of cultist leaders, leading to many nations to grab more power in their regions and allowing new nations to spring up, all attempting to grab as much power as they can. The cause of the conflict is the disbanding of the Cultist Empire. The Cultist Empire disbanded due to the deletion of a fort in North America leading to the Cultist Empire's leaders leaving and disbanding the Cultist Empire.

## Pre-Conflict

Before the fall of the Cultist Empire, there were a few nations in the Americas. A \* next to the name means that these nations are now defunct, disbanded, or inactive. These include:

* Vinovia (Canada)
* Kingdom of Nordland (Canada, vassal of Nordic Conquerors)
* \*Unitary Canada
* \*Kanadum Imperium (Canada)
* Kingdom Of Tetria (Canada)
* \*Vanaheim Empire (Canada)
* The American Empire (USA) (
* Oxination (USA)
* Mayan Legion (Guatemala)
* Bratva (Chile)
* Bolivia (Bolivia)
* Kingdom Of Cusco (Peru)
* \*Evertonia (Alaska)

Kanadum Imperium was later sieged by Vinovia and Unitary Canada, leading up to it's disbandment a few weeks before the fall of the Cultist Empire. Soon after this, Unitary Canada fell too, and instead a new nation is formed by Hurdsell and S3xyRay (Ex Unitary Canada leader). The name of the empire was "OrderHold Dominion" but it was later renamed to "American Empire". This nation wanted to wage war against the Cultist Empire. However, a siege did not happen, as the Cultist Empire fell before any real conflict could happen.

## Post Disbandment

When the Cultist Empire disbanded, every nation quickly grabbed as much power and influence they could from the vacant towns. At this point in time, the American Empire had a town in Mexico, Cuba, Central America, and a few in the midwest region of the real United States. Oxination doesn't expand much, but quickly sieges Advance, which was the capital of Tetria\*. The Mayan Legion, which had just started, also expands it's influence into mexico and Central America, with only a few towns in these regions being foreign at the time. Bolivia also begins to spread sparsely throughout South America.

## Early August 2023

Note that each section is not organized in chronological order.

### KIEVAN RUS

Kieven Rus see's an opportunity to begin colonizing the Americas and quickly seizes it. Kievan Rus establishes four vassals. The White Cross Legion\* (split from the American Empire), the Saqqaq Empire, Gran Colombia, and Gran Brasil\*. Gran Brasil\* will later merge with Gran Colombia, and the White Cross Legion will disband soon after it's inception, with Gran Colombia inheriting it's sphere of influence, and taking some of Oxination's towns. Gran Colombia is a powerful nation, with amazing PVPers, which had allowed it to take over the entirety of Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, and a small part of Argentina. The Saqqaq Empire is based in the Quebec area and has been sieging independent forts, gaining footing in America as well

### SAHARAN SYNDICATE

The Saharan Syndicate too sees opportunity to expand into America, however they do not make a vassal nation, and instead recruits cities through it's own nation, with towns like Havana\*, New York, and more.

### INCAN EMPIRE AND THE FORMATION OF C.U.M

Growing concerns about the expansion of Colombia prompts Sindakil, who is about to make a nation, to propose a coalition to the American Empire. The American Empire agrees to form this coalition, naming it the Central United Military (CUM) and invites the Mayan Legion and Bolivia to join. C.U.M then allies with the Alliance in Europe. The Incan Empire is then formed by Sindakil, who sends it's citizens to make new cities in the Chilean area, however one of the mayors in the Incan Empire had plans to start a revolution, but is quickly put down by Sindakil, using social engineering to take over the city that was giving him issues. After this, Sindakil begins helping C.U.M militarize with weapons and ammo.

### MAYAN LEGION ( AND IT'S PROBLEMS WITH COLOMBIA )

After expanding into Mexico and the rest of Central America, A town is created in Merida by Linten of Colombia in order to restore Merida to it's former glory, but due to it's close proximity to the Mayan Legion's capital (Escuintla) and it being a Colombian town, it immediately began causing issues. The Mayan Legion attempted to recruit it, but Linten denied joining without a specific reason, most likely it being because of it's allegiance to Colombia. Linten then attempts to become a leader in the Mayan Legion but is denied due to her being a part of Colombia. Linten then attempts to take over Fort Town Haystack, one of Maya's forts, under the guise of improving the fort, but the facade quickly fades away and Linten is kicked. The Mayan Legion then begins the construction of a fort in Honduras, and turns it's Galapagos's fort into a residential town, as it was a weak spot.

### OXINATION V. AMERICAN EMPIRE

Gran Colombia furthers it's reach and creates a fort in the western part of the USA, recruiting cities from Oxination, who is about to be sieged by the American Empire. Seeing this as an opportunity for a new ally, the Mayan Legion reaches out to Oxination to request them to join C.U.M. Oxinator agrees to this and join's C.U.M. This is short lived, however, as Oxinator loses hope for the movement and leaves the C.U.M to sell his nation, provoking the AE to siege Fort Oxi. AE has the support of the Mayan Legion and the Saharan Syndicate. A few players from the Nordic Conquerors attempted to assist Oxi, but failed, and AE won the siege.

### SCOTIAN SEA

A new nation emerged in the Atlantic Sea, called the Scotian Sea, it's capital being the Rum Runners. It has yet to do anything of note

### CANADIAN EMPIRE

The Canadian Empire is a vassal of the Spanish Empire based in Canada. At this point in the conflict, they occupied 5 large towns.

## Late August 2023

### Oxination is fully occupied

Even though Fort Oxi was successfully sieged, it did not mark the end of oxination's independence. There was another fort that needed to be taken over. This fort was sieged and was an attacker win with little to no resistance from defending forces.

### The Atlantic Republic

The Atlantic Republic was a nation that had split from the Mayan Legion. Although the Mayan Legion had allowed desolate to make the nation, desolate defied the Mayan Legion by joining the Coalition, citing the pledge he took when he joined the Cultist Empire and that he was threatened by AE and Sahara Syndicate, both allies of the Mayan Legion. The Atlantic Republic remains a one town nation at this point of the conflict, and had vassalized to the Nordic Conquerors. But as of recently just before the siege of livland Atlantic republic had split from the coalition and decided to join alliance after a conversation with a player by the name of josgbr caused me (Desolate) to have reasons to join alliance.

### The Sahara Syndicate gains footing in the USA and Canada

The Sahara Syndicate had began expanding northwards, first by having Vinovia as a vassal, and re-reating a old nation called Empire Of Columbia (Not to be confused with Gran Colombia) that would signal that the Saharan Syndicate and the Alliance was to stay in the Americas.

### Ruining of Phoenix Point and Cultist town

A loss that Kievan Rus experienced at this point of the conflict is the ruining of Phoenix Point, which was a movecrafter town, which allowed many other nations such as the Saharan Syndicate, the American Empire, and the Mayan Legion to take the designs and print Cultist tanks, which were state of the art. However, Kievan Rus did not own this town, but merely occupied it, and therefore it was not a direct blow to the nation of Gran Colombia.

### The Re-estabilishment of the Empire Of Columbia

The Empire Of Columbia [Not to be confused with Gran Colombia in South America] is in an unique position compared to the rest of the nations involved in the conflict. During the First American Power Vacuum Conflicts or the AS-Columbian Transition which occured after the crushing defeat of the American Syndicate by old Coalition forces in First Order, the Columbians replaced the old Syndicate in a series of fast bloody conquests from Alaska to Punto de Fuego in Argentina which lead to the first reunification of the Americas ever since the collapse of the Syndicate. The isolationist policies and inactivity that followed the conquests lead to the collapse of the nation months after the conquests and the Cultists which had split off from the Columbians conquered what was left on the region.

As of late August 2023 wealth accumulated from selling towns in Asia lead to the Columbians thoughts of reclaiming the core settlements of the old Empire, re-estabilishing Columbia, Maine-Merida, Chorus Nivis (the old location of Hudson Bay Company), Porto Dorito (in Newfoundland) and estabilishing the new towns of Nova Aurelianis and Nova Ingria in Quebec and Labrador respectively. Although they've pledged vassalage to the Sahara Syndicate, they're acting indepedently using the vassalage only to mutually benefit in bonus claims for construction projects. The rapid re-estabilishment of the core territories has mostly gone unnoticed as the Columbians havent involved themselves in a good scale into the continental affairs and battles despite having a formidable army consisting of excellent veteran players and new players. Columbia has a passive stance in the geopolitics of the region.
