On the 5th February 2021, after a long period of inactivity, [[mrpoof_]] would announce his intentions to abdicate the monarchy of [[Somalia]] in an announcement on the Somalia discord. The announcement would read:<blockquote>''"Well, @everyone who is still in this server, it is with mixed feelings that I make this announcement today: '''I intend to abdicate the Throne.''' On February 20, the 1st anniversary of Somalia, @"Mogadishu | BonArc will be crowned Pirate King of Somalia. It's certainly been a long time coming. I haven't been active in months, and have long thought of how to revitalize the nation. I now realize that I wasn't a very good choice for King in the first place. I've done nothing with the nation in the 8 1/2 months I've owned it. This is a good way to revitalize the nation. BonArc is still an active player who cares about Somalia, maybe the last one who does. I know I am leaving the nation in good hands with him. That being said, I invite you all to the handover ceremony on the 20th, I'll post the time later. Maybe, finally, Somalia will be revitalized. '''Long live Somalia!'''"''</blockquote>This was somewhat expected by some as he had not run in the last elections in [[Darya]] and questioned if he intended to stay active on EarthMC. | On the 5th February 2021, after a long period of inactivity, [[mrpoof_]] would announce his intentions to abdicate the monarchy of [[Somalia]] in an announcement on the Somalia discord.

Due to a lack of preparations, the leadership of [[Somalia]] did not know how to set BonArc as the new leader. He would ask [[gorkymoo1119]] and [[twomoo1119]] on how to do this. After a few minutes of discussion amongst the Somalis and Nubians regarding if they wanted Calula to become the capital or not. BonArc would wait for instructions for [[mrpoof_]] during this time. | Due to a lack of preparations, the leadership of [[Somalia]] did not know how to set [[BonArc]] as the new leader.

It was planned after discussion regarding the new leader that [[mrpoof_]] would take over Calula. However, this would require a person to temporarily hold onto the town. [[Gorkymoo1119]] would discuss the issue with [[twomoo1119]], at which the idea of [[Slickss]] holding onto the town temporarily was suggested. [[Gorkymoo1119]] would message [[MapleVK]], asking if they could have [[Slickss]] for this purpose. | It was planned after discussion regarding the new leader that [[mrpoof_]] would take over Calula.
