Reasons for the Collapse
Vancouver, the first town to fall and the foreshadowing of what was coming, had become inactive since the days of Praxis. The city had been established before Canada was a nation, and many Canadian towns claimed outposts in the area. With the banning of GuardedCharlie in September of 2017, California, which consisted of mainly inactive players, was doomed to eventually fall. On the first day of October, it finally did. With it, JamessV of Phoenix, who had been in constant conflict with GuardedCharlie, decided that the Western US was no longer a fitting place to live. With the collapse of his nation, Republic of the Mojave Desert (RMD), after a server re-rendering marked his town as ineligible for being head of a nation and left him with no money, James accordingly moved to Canada to start his career anew with the return of his old friend, Mrclucky_123. Finally, mell0 jell0 of Palouse had become increasingly inactive since the Praxis days, and was no longer interested in the server. The towns of Fort_Salt_Lake and Adrian have also been inactive and were poised to collapse as of 5 Oct 2017, yet both towns still stand as of 29 Oct 2017.
Consequences
As a result, the nations of the surrounding area quickly moved in. Canada was the first to stake a claim in California, with several Canadian towns involved; Graham claiming the most major skyscraper of the city, and staking claim to northern California. Nevada of Canada claimed the other large tower. AlaskanEmpire, lead by Nino and iKillac, raided Phoenix and sacked California's claim in Florida. When Palouse fell, Canada once again was the first to claim the area. Prestige Imperium (PI) quickly followed in California but failed to establish any major claims on the west coast. In Florida, Optiv swept in to claim Florida but was soon banned for xray. FrankUnderwod attempted to establish his nation's capital, New_Virmuni, in the ruins of California, but was pressured to move elsewhere. He still has an outpost there to this day.
In a more positive light, a massive region has been opened to settlement. Both Canada and PI have expressed interest in the Continental United States, while Mexico has claimed the Baja.
