The Columbian government under Dornan_ was happy to oblige and the merger was recognized within a few days of the initial declaration by 32Oreo. Not long after this merger, 32Oreo left to create the town of Grande Prairie, which made Oilerator once again the Governor of Haida. The town of Grande Prairie is located in British Columbia territory which angered them, and resulted in the town being lava casted by a few British Columbians. Grande Prairie did not have the support of the Cascadian governemnt and while tensions were high, 32Oreo decided to join BC to avoid any potential war.
After Oilerator took over, he started to focus more on Haida's expansion and managed to purchase the town of Montes Negros from Columbia. Oilerator did not feel the need to be a part of this union anymore, as it served no benefit to Haida which resulted in him deciding to leave it.
