The Second Philippine Civil War is an ongoing civil war in the Philippines being fought between the new Philippine Republic, which is a conservative market republic, and the Philippines, which is a unitary fascist dictatorship.

Background

The first town to seek civil war was Bacolod, owned by Marangal during the First Philippine Civil War. However, Marangal lacked support, and was banned after he was found to be an alt-account of SirInfinity. He then attempted to continue the movement under his second alt-account, Peanut_1220, but was discovered and reported by Illidanlestat.

Two months later in January of 2021, a larger revolutionary movement started because of a new EMC update, which required nations to be allied with each other to trade and teleport. The Philippines could no longer trade with foreign nations, as Skylordvoxaco refused to ally with most other nations. This new movement was lead by long time players such as Illidanlestat and Jayisa, as well as newer players including YetI_MC and Pagong04. Weeks after the update, Skylordvoxaco received information of the movement. However, Skylordvoxaco continued to ignore the citizens' demands, so eight of the nine towns succeeded from the Philippines under Illidanlestat's orders on February 12, 2021 to form their own nation, the Philippine Republic. It's capital would be the new town of Greater_Manila, positioned south of Manila.

Post Succession

Illidanlestat was fired from Secretary of Foreign Affairs on February 16 by YetI_MC for charges of leaking nation secrets to Indochina, although all other charges against him were dropped. Godlyeriss, the one who wrote the charges, was appointed as the new Secretary of Foreign Affairs, and has since improved relations with the Middle East and has convinced some nations to join the conflict on the revolutionary side. The first battle of the war started on February 18, 2021 when Skylordvoxaco joined the server for the first time in 12 days. What followed was a two hour siege of Manila and Skylordvoxaco's palace. Due to claim hiding, there was only one casualty, which was an accidental kill when Persian leader Fruitloopins killed Minister_Miong due to misinformation.

Future Projections and Outcomes

The Second Philippine Civil War is currently very one sided in favor of the new republic, and is projected to become even more problematic for the Fascist Philippine nation as time goes on. Eight towns of the nine in the Philippines have succeeded, six of which on the mainland and two of which being colonies. The Philippine Republic also has far superior combat equipment, city development, and manpower, giving them the clear edge in battle. Furthermore, the republic has received aid from multiple foreign allies, including Indochina and Nusantara.

There are two foreseeable outcomes to the Second Philippine War. One, the Republic defeats the fascists in battle, and effectively takes control of the town. In this outcome, Skylordvoxaco resigns from power, and the two sides rejoin under democracy. Alternatively, the Civil War could end in a stalemate, where the republic is unable to take control of Manila because Skylordvoxaco hides in his palace. This outcome would result in two separate Philippine nations, which would likely compete with each other for control of the island chain.
