=== The Orange Tide ===

On the 28th of April, a follow up thread was made to the same r/suomi subreddit where the idea for Greater Finland had started about two weeks earlier. The thread quickly gained popularity, and reached 1.1k upvotes. The people of Greater Finland were hopeful for new members, but what happened surpassed everyone's expectations. Huge masses of Finnish Redditors were inspired enough by the post to come on the server, which resulted in Greater Finland becoming the fastest growing nation on the server. The capital [[Kekkoslinna]] overflew with new recruits, and the population cap was quickly reached. The population cap of [[Tampere]] was also filled soon after. The global chat was bombarded by Finnish messages, because most of the people were unaware of townchat and private messages. This resulted in the admins having to mute dozens of Finns, as the members of Greater Finland were apologizing and trying their best to deal with the influx of new members. A beginner's guide to the server followed by a tour of [[Kekkoslinna]] was kept every 5-10 minutes, so that the new members could learn the ropes. The tide slowed down eventually, but had successfully raised the number of Finns so much that Greater Finland was now on par with some of the largest nations on the server, at least population-wise.

[[MM1kael]] claimed to have made false hack reports of everyone who was a part of Finland, even people who had nothing to do with the revolution, but [[S1s1l1sko]] were held, and the leaders came to a fitting conclusion; [[MM1kael]] would join Finland, and stay as the mayor of [[Tampere]] because he built most of it, but he would not be let back into the high council of Greater Finland.

~~=== The Tampere Crisis ===~~

When the Factions map was released to the public on 24 May, many Finns eagerly flocked over, hoping to finally get a taste of real pvp after the sad excuse for warfare that Towny has. Gold was gathered, a base was built and the faction was ready to be made. [[MM1kael]], the leader of [[Tampere]] over at the towny server decided that he wanted to be the leader. No-one minded, seeing as [[MM1kael]] was already a chancellor on towny. There had been incidents with [[MM1kael]] before, including an attempt to claim over [[Hautakylä]], a fellow Finnish town and blocking the ice tunnels below [[Tampere]] for no good reason. However, people were aware of [[MM1kael]]'s young age and thought nothing of it.

Not understanding how Factions work, [[MM1kael]] had claimed an enormous chunk of land for the sole reason of being big, despite the horrible strain it put on Finland's faction power. People would start fighting and arguing over it, with [[MM1kael]] not bringing up any proper arguments, but still refusing to do anything because he was the leader. Everything calmed down after a while, and all seemed OK until [[S1s1l1sko]] decided to start arguing with [[MM1kael]] once again. This time [[MM1kael]] kicked [[S1s1l1sko]] off the faction, and killed him. As soon as this happened, the other members of the faction realized that giving [[MM1kael]] leadership was not a good idea. Other members of the faction immediately started planning a revolution in voice chat, and it ended up happening about an hour after [[S1s1l1sko]] was kicked out.

Everything was taken from the base, and when inventories were full, they burned down most of the chests and items left behind. The bulk of the Finnish population had an exodus to the island of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotland Gotland], where they still reside. Discussion started on the Finnish discord, and everyone was in mutual agreement that this had gone too far. A new leader would be chosen for Factions-Finland, and that would be it. The town of [[Vaasa]] had effectively died, because [[MM1kael]] fabricated an IP ban for [[S1s1l1sko]] as a revenge for the revolution. [[MM1kael]] claimed to have made false hack reports of everyone who was a part of Finland, even people who had nothing to do with the revolution, but [[S1s1l1sko]] ~~was the only one to be banned.~~

The next day [[MM1kael]] saw the Faction on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gotland Gotland], and decided to appoint himself the only rightful ruler of the Finnish faction. Arguments began on the Finnish discord once again, as [[MM1kael]] thought that the other Finland would be a rival to his "rightful" Finland, when in reality it was a temporary faction, only to be used until the leadership issue was sorted out. He started killing everyone and ended up trying to blow up the new Finnish base with TNT. Arguments started, and in the end, [[MM1kael]] was declared a traitor to Finland and kicked off, even in Towny on May 27. [[Tampere]] joined [[Terra Mariana]] shortly after, and a war against Finland was being planned.

However, [[MM1kael]] never wanted this on Towny because he felt that Factions and Towny are two separate entities, and you shouldn't be judged on both for something that you do in one of them. Long discussions were held, and the leaders came to a fitting conclusion; [[MM1kael]] would join Finland, and stay as the mayor of [[Tampere]] because he built most of it, but he would not be let back into the high council of Greater Finland.

As of 28.5, [[MM1kael]] is back in Greater Finland, and all drama has been left behind, with even [[S1s1l1sko]] being unbanned. [[MM1kael]] is still hostile to Finland in Factions, but no-one takes it personally, thinking of it as more of a friendly rivalry.
