After gaining its sovereignty, the nation faced pressure from two sides with conflicting interests. Spain wished to maintain control over the Northwestern African regions and offered land and power to Lixus leaders in exchange for allegiance. On the other hand, a budding United Africa sought to welcome the new state to their governing body. With two paths to take, leadership was forced to make a choice. After conversing with both sides of the conflict as well as the mayors of the towns which were promised to them, Diplomatic Leader Neowyld held a meeting which led to Lixus joining United Africa as Spain's offers appeared disingenuous. | After gaining its sovereignty, the nation faced pressure from two sides with conflicting interests.

Valkyrie_Snow and Pixelfire93 worked on miscellaneous tasks. | Lixus's main project was the construction of The Golden Apple Casino. It was the purpose for becoming a nation.

On 4 August 2020, tragedy struck the nation as the mods had ruled it a violation of 4.1 - Nation Names. Technically, the IRL city of Lixus was neither large enough nor ever considered a nation.

Many were outraged by the event, but Neowyld remained calm and accepted the name removal as it was fair treatment during a time where a lot of nations were getting 4.1 violations. | |||
Time will tell what the new name for Lixus will be. | |||
