	In the [[Organization of Free Nations]], a couple of crises were ongoing amongst the member states. In Cascadia, officials were attempting to negotiate an non-aggression pact and border treaty with the [[Aurora:North Sea Republic\|North Sea Republic]] (NSR), who controlled San Francisco. Tensions between the NSR and Cascadia had been high since San Francisco joined the NSR after the Wagner War, to the point that the rivalry between the two has been labelled the [[Cascadia-NSR Cold War]]. Although Cascadian and NSR officials had been somewhat opposed to negotiations for some time, in late May 2024, [[Aurora:Vermont\|Vermont]] began to mediate negotiations in an attempt to end the tensions between their two allies. A non-aggression pact was quickly agreed to, though negotiations nearly fell apart as the two sides debated a border agreement. The NSR, pushed by NFISH, desired an agreement where the NSR would be allowed to claim almost any territory in North America outside the Cascadian Metro. Cascadia, in response, pushed for an agreement where the NSR would only be tolerated to claim territory in California and Nevada. During this debate, Cascadian President [[Raptormm4]] would remark that the NSR (whose capital was on the island of Ireland) was a government "From fucking Ireland." This became known as the [[Aurora:"Fucking Ireland" Incident\|"Fucking Ireland" incident]]. Negotiations between the two continued for over a month, held together by both sides wishing to please Vermont and not be the first side to break off negotiations. The negotiations would not end until the Treaty of Los Angeles, with NSR settlement limited to the areas south of Nevada's northern border. The final agreement was agreed to by Cascadian officials in order to focus dealing with the increasing threat of Texas.

	In [[Aurora:Havaiki\|Havaiki]], the [[Zealandia Civil War]] was brewing. The war began on May 29, 2024, when a mayor named Bacon seceded from Havaiki after Havaiki ~~refused to adopt certain amendments to its constitution~~. Bacon, who was mayor of the north New Zealand town of Port Jason, and a small number of other mayors, declared independence as the nation of [[Zealandia]], and came into open conflict with Havaiki. While Havaiki received strong support from most of its OFN allies, especially Cascadia and Pilbara, Vermont attempted to blame Havaiki for the conflict. [[Princeling]], who at this time was still a major figure in Vermont, would refuse to condemn Zealandia, and would ultimately be one of many voices calling for peace in the region. The war ultimately came to an end with a recognition of Zealandian independence and a ceasefire line on June 15.		In [[Aurora:Havaiki\|Havaiki]], the [[Zealandia Civil War]] was brewing.

	In the [[Caucasian Republic]], the OFN came into a crises between one of their member states and the nation of [[Turkey (Aurora)\|Turkey]]. The Caucasian Republic joined the OFN on May 11, 2024, having transitioned into a democratic republic in April. However, in late May, the Caucasian Republic's leadership came into a disagreement over their borders with neighboring Turkey. On June 4, Turkey overclaimed the Caucasian Republic's capital of Don Host. The Caucasian Republic's leader and founder, PastaMaster, resigned five days later due to the crisis. In the process, he declared Don Host surrendered to Turkey.

	=== The 7/23 Nuking ===		=== The 7/23 Nuking ===
	On July 21, 2024, Raptor's term as President of Cascadia came to a close, and Lovelyfurball succeeded him. Furball had been Raptor's preferred choice, due to his involvement in the war up to that point, his recruiting skills, and his experience fighting wars in the Middle East as King of [[Aurora:Israel\|Israel]]. Around 10:05 PM PT (12:05 AM CT; 1:05 AM EST) on July 22, Furball was attempting to add the "cesspool" role to Samisol shortly before going to bed. By accident, he instead gave Samisol the "admin" role, giving Samisol complete access to the Cascadian discord. Samisol then alerted a GC of high-ranking Texans and allied leaders. A plan of action was quickly formulated in-call: first, channels deemed 'noteworthy' would be downloaded via Samisol's modified discord client and packaged into a .rar file for later review. Samisol himself, alongside ~~a younger Texan~~ named jp.f, would complete the nuking. Nearly 300 Cascadians were banned or kicked, almost all roles were deleted, and all but 2 channels were deleted. To the amazement of Cascadian officials, these were the passed-laws and passed-resolution channels, the only channels needed to keep the institutions of the nation intact. The total 'active time' in the nuke was around 30min, and Cascadian response was delayed due to it being extremely early in the morning. Among the final changes was the name and icon of the server changed to "Total Texan Victory". As Cascadian leadership scrambled to figure out what had happened, Furball was removed from many government channels for fear of him being a Texan spy, and the government began to discuss how to reassure confidence amongst Cascadians after the nuking of the Discord. [[Arcadian]] and experienced Discord admin [[Dracnoian]] was given admin powers in the immediate aftermath of this incident, in order to help rebuild the discord from scratch. By morning on July 23, most channels and roles had been restored.		On July 21, 2024, Raptor's term as President of Cascadia came to a close, and Lovelyfurball succeeded him.

	The personal security threat of the Texan nuking was also deemed extreme by many. Texas at this time was ~~still harboring a number~~ of ~~known doxxers~~, most notably Bonzzil. Cascadian leaders were advised to change passwords on their accounts and check their personal internet footprints for leaks. The fact that Furball, who up to this point was still a major suspect in the nuking, had access to the casual GC with personal information of Cascadian leadership was also concerning. Rocksthunder, in an attempt to protect his personal information from being doxxed, would leave the GC and swear further fealty to Texas. At 11:03 PM PT, July 22, the cabinet declared Furball (who was asleep by that time) inable to exercise his powers as president, making Vice President Setrus Acting President. Furball, embarrassed by the incident and recognizing it would be difficult to recover from, officially resigned from the presidency at 10:41 AM PT on July 23. Texas would declare victory over Cascadia at 11:15 PM PT (1:15 AM CT; 2:15 AM EST), July 22, citing the nuking of the Cascadian discord and the capture of most of California. Cascadia immediately rejected the declaration of victory that same day, with Milgorn stating that "Cascadia firmly rejects the declaration of victory by Texas. The Texan bastards will pay for their action. We will never surrender, even if it is us against the world." An additional Cascadian response would be issued on July 26, making note of recent Texan bans (including some for doxxing), and promising the continue the war.		The personal security threat of the Texan nuking was also deemed extreme by many.

	The nuking drew widespread reactions from across the international community. Nunavik, who effectively succeeded Laurentia around July 17, condemned Texas and demanded that they return the download of the Cascadian discord to Cascadia. Pilbara, whose involvement was limited to the placement of Weezer2, effectively withdrew their active involvement from the conflict due to Vermont's ceasefire and the nuking. In the aftermath of the 7/23 Nuking, the war would enter into a period of relative inactivity. Many in Texas believed that the war was effectively over, and that they had won it. Samisol's activity would begin to dwindle after the nuking, until he eventually quit and never returned in early August. The wartime presidencies of Rocky and Lukedcool (the latter of whom presided over the nuking) would fade into the activity and economic-focused presidency of JoeJoe77. For Cascadia, the 7/23 Nuking was a major milestone in both the war and the nation's history. It is considered by many to have been the most significant attack against Cascadia in the nation's history. It wouldn't be until several weeks later that Cascadia began to operate normally again, and counteroffensives returned as an option. Despite the loss of nearly 2 years of national history in the nuking, the event would eventually become a symbol of Cascadian resilience, often compared to the [[Battle of Oceanside]]. The 7/23 Nuking is also considered to have been the turning point of the war. As Raptor would say of the attack, quoting Winston Churchil, "The darkest hour is just before dawn."

	Outside peace negotiations, Texas continued its offensive into Vermont territory by capturing more towns, notably the anti-war town of Philadelphia. By July 17, nearly all of the American South was predominantly under Texan control, with Vermont pushed back to New England. On July 14, Princeling (who by this time was considered by many to be the de-facto leader of Vermont) published an OP-ED regarding the war to [[TBI]], which he used to justify Vermont's actions in the war thus far, including the anti-war sentiments in Vermont, his feelings regarding Texan aggression, and his thoughts on Vermont's new alliances with the NSR. Notably, the OP-ED criticized Cascadia and directly referred to them as a bad ally, going so far as to suggest that the war was entirely Cascadia's fault and that Vermont was beholden to their treaty agreements with Cascadia. On July 22, Vermont agreed to a ceasefire with Texas, with both sides promising not to place more siege towns, many towns poached from Vermont being given permanently to Texas, and Vermont paying 200g. Neither of these developments were taken lightly by Cascadia and other OFN allies, notably Laurentia and Havaiki (the latter of which still recalled Vermont's actions during the Zealandia Civil War). Vermont's actions leading up to this point even led Laurentian founder and former Cascadian President [[TylenolEC]] to post a vote to expel Vermont from the OFN on July 14. According to Tylenol and [[MasterEWild]], Vermont had not only been attempting to escape OFN obligations, but also their treaty obligations with their former nation of Laurentia. The vote would fail as most OFN members agreed it was better to keep working with Vermont even as they tried to leave the war. After the July 22 ceasefire, activity on the Eastern Front would mostly slow to a halt by late July, though sporadic Texan hunting against Vermonters would continue to keep Vermont engaged until the end of the war.

	=== The 7/23 Nuking ~~(WIP)~~ ===		=== The 7/23 Nuking ===
	On July 21, 2024, Raptor's term as President of Cascadia came to a close, and Lovelyfurball succeeded him. Furball had been Raptor's preferred choice, due to his involvement in the war up to that point, his recruiting skills, and his experience fighting wars in the Middle East as King of [[Aurora:Israel\|Israel]]. Around 10:05 PM PT (12:05 AM CT; 1:05 AM EST) on July 22, Furball was attempting to add the "cesspool" role to Samisol shortly before going to bed. By accident, he instead gave Samisol the "admin" role, giving Samisol complete access to the Cascadian discord. Samisol then alerted a GC of high-ranking Texans and allied leaders. A plan of action was quickly formulated in-call: first, channels deemed 'noteworthy' would be downloaded via Samisol's modified discord client and packaged into a .rar file for later review. Samisol himself, alongside a younger Texan named jp.f, would complete the nuking. Nearly 300 Cascadians were banned or kicked, almost all roles were deleted, and all but 2 channels were deleted. To the amazement of Cascadian officials, these were the passed-laws and passed-resolution channels, the only channels needed to keep the institutions of the nation intact. The total 'active time' in the nuke was around 30min, and Cascadian response was delayed due to it being extremely early in the morning. Among the final changes was the name and icon of the server changed to "Total Texan Victory". As Cascadian leadership scrambled to figure out what had happened, Furball was removed from many government channels for fear of him being a Texan spy, and the government began to discuss how to reassure confidence amongst Cascadians after the nuking of the Discord. [[Arcadian]] and experienced Discord admin [[Dracnoian]] was given admin powers in the immediate aftermath of this incident, in order to help rebuild the discord from scratch. By morning on July 23, most channels and roles had been restored.		On July 21, 2024, Raptor's term as President of Cascadia came to a close, and Lovelyfurball succeeded him.

	The nuking drew widespread reactions from across the international community. Nunavik, who effectively succeeded Laurentia around July 17, condemned Texas and demanded that they return the download of the Cascadian discord to Cascadia. Pilbara, whose involvement was limited to the placement of Weezer2, effectively withdrew their active involvement from the conflict due to Vermont's ceasefire and the nuking. In the aftermath of the 7/23 Nuking, the war would enter into a period of relative inactivity. Many in Texas believed that the war was effectively over, and that they had won it. Samisol's activity would begin to dwindle after the nuking, until he eventually quit and never returned in early August. The wartime presidencies of Rocky and Lukedcool (the latter of whom presided over the nuking) would fade into the activity and economic-focused presidency of JoeJoe77. For Cascadia, the 7/23 Nuking was a major milestone in both the war and the nation's history. It is considered by many to have been the most significant attack against Cascadia in the nation's history. It wouldn't be until several weeks later that Cascadia began to operate normally again, and counteroffensives returned as an option. Despite the loss of nearly 2 years of national history in the nuking, the event would eventually become a symbol of Cascadian resilience, often compared to the [[Battle of Oceanside]]. The 7/23 Nuking is also considered to have been the turning point of the war. As Raptor would say of the attack, quoting Winston Churchil, "The darkest hour is just before dawn."

	In the early morning of July 23, Samisol alerted a GC of high-ranking Texans and allied leaders about acquiring admin-level access to the Cascadian discord server due to an error by Lovelyfurball, who had accidentally given him admin perms instead of a 'cesspool' role. A plan of action was quickly formulated in-call: first, channels deemed 'noteworthy' would be downloaded via Samisol's modified discord client and packaged into a .rar file for later review. Afterwards, the group disagreed on who would actually do the nuking- Samisol didn't want to do anything out of fear of getting his discord account terminated, so instead a another member of the group used their account named "jp.f" to do the brunt of the deletion and banning. The total 'active time' in the nuke was around 30min, and Cascadian response was delayed due to it being extremely early in the morning. Among the final changes was the name and icon of the server changed to "Total Texan Victory" (<-- 8set's note; I forget what it was actually changed to, if you can find this out and make it accurate it would be appreciated).

	Publicly, Cascadia attempted to portray a sense of resilience and being unshaken, but the true reaction was much different. Chats leaked from the OFN showed a much more frantic and scattered reaction from many high-ranking members. Texas used the mistake of Lovelyfurball to frame the attack as an intentional betrayal, which gained mixed reactions. Texas made a victory announcement, whereas Cascadia later made some sort of recovery announcement.

	In the [[Organization of Free Nations]], a couple of crises were ongoing amongst the member states. In Cascadia, officials were attempting to negotiate an non-aggression pact and border treaty with the [[Aurora:North Sea Republic\|North Sea Republic]] (NSR), who controlled San Francisco. Tensions between the NSR and Cascadia had been high since San Francisco joined the NSR after the Wagner War, to the point that the rivalry between the two has been labelled the [[Cascadia-NSR Cold War]]. Although Cascadian and NSR officials had been somewhat opposed to negotiations for some time, in late May 2024, [[Aurora:Vermont\|Vermont]] began to mediate negotiations in an attempt to end the tensions between their two allies. A non-aggression pact was quickly agreed to, though negotiations nearly fell apart as the two sides debated a border agreement. The NSR, pushed by NFISH, desired an agreement where the NSR would be allowed to claim almost any territory in North America outside the Cascadian Metro. Cascadia, in response, pushed for an agreement where the NSR would only be tolerated to claim territory in California and Nevada. During this debate, Cascadian President [[Raptormm4]] would remark that the NSR (whose capital was on the island of Ireland) was a government "From fucking Ireland." This became known as the [[Aurora:"Fucking Ireland" Incident\|"Fucking Ireland" incident]]. Negotiations between the two continued for over a month, held together by both sides wishing to please Vermont and not be the first side to break off negotiations. The negotiations would not end until the Treaty of Los Angeles, with NSR settlement limited to the areas south of Nevada's northern border. The final agreement was agreed to by Cascadian officials in order to focus dealing with the increasing threat of Texas.

	In [[Aurora:Havaiki\|Havaiki]], the [[Zealandia Civil War]] was brewing. The war began on May 29, 2024, when a mayor named Bacon seceded from Havaiki after Havaiki ~~refused to adopt certain amendments to its constitution~~. Bacon, who was mayor of the north New Zealand town of Port Jason, and a small number of other mayors, declared independence as the nation of [[Zealandia]], and came into open conflict with Havaiki. While Havaiki received strong support from most of its OFN allies, especially Cascadia and Pilbara, Vermont attempted to blame Havaiki for the conflict. [[Princeling]], who at this time was still a major figure in Vermont, would refuse to condemn Zealandia, and would ultimately be one of many voices calling for peace in the region. The war ultimately came to an end with a recognition of Zealandian independence and a ceasefire line on June 15.		In [[Aurora:Havaiki\|Havaiki]], the [[Zealandia Civil War]] was brewing.

	In the [[Caucasian Republic]], the OFN came into a crises between one of their member states and the nation of [[Turkey (Aurora)\|Turkey]]. The Caucasian Republic joined the OFN on May 11, 2024, having transitioned into a democratic republic in April. However, in late May, the Caucasian Republic's leadership came into a disagreement over their borders with neighboring Turkey. On June 4, Turkey overclaimed the Caucasian Republic's capital of Don Host. The Caucasian Republic's leader and founder, PastaMaster, resigned five days later due to the crisis. In the process, he declared Don Host surrendered to Turkey.
