Collapse of Rome

Prelude
Due to raging inactivity plaguing the Roman Republic, the country was forced by the staff team to cede roughly 40% of its land away. Because of this, Roman senator and governor Fiyu seceded from Rome as the Empire of Doggerland (informally at 18:58; formally at 20:29), claiming tidbits of England that he had developed when he was a citizen of the Netherlands. The French National Republic also declared independence under Roman citizen Butternalso (at 19:24), who promptly gave control of the country back to former-French President Goosw (at 19:34).

Conflict
Roman general Pussilamous declared war on the French National Republic at 19:43. Following this, the Empire of Doggerland and the French National Republic united to form the Angevin Empire (informally at 20:06; formally at 20:33).

The conflict has been heavily one sided thus far, with roughly a dozen people storming the Dutch Capitol Building yesterday awaiting for both a Roman and a staff member to join the server to finally allow for the destruction of the building to occur. The second this happened, TNT was placed all over the Capitol, destroying much of the interior. Off-and-on for the next couple hours, an assortment of Romans would join (although never fighting back), allowing for more and more griefing to occur in both the Dutch Capitol Building as well as The Hague itself (with the iconic PibbCola factory being destroyed again). Very minor griefing was done elsewhere, supposedly only in Pussopolis, Hoeland.

Pussilamous, despite originally supporting the Roman Republic, would later secede and reform Hoeland at 20:45.

Aftermath
After the main battle of the war was over, the Province of Athenia, seeing the republic's instability, seceded from Rome and reformed New Athens. The Chandelier later seceded as well.
