Frustrated with their failure to secure power, the Nunavik army bought the nation of Acadia and moved the capital city into designated Nunavik borders.  This enraged Nunavik leaders, who promptly declared war, with gite declaring war at 12:08 AM UTC.  The Nunavik army, now in control of the nation of Acadia, published and official claim map that violated Nunavik and Coats borders, as well as claimed a large part of Québec.

With the war against Acadia raging on, the extent of the borders of Coats were not clear, making it difficult to establish the justification that Acadia was claiming Coats territory.  Due to this fact, gite and SgtCartoon jointly published the official claim map of Coats on 20 November 2022.  The claims encompassing the entire Hudson Bay region purposedly violated several nations' territory and placed land that was far out of reach in the official claims.
Despite these claims being somewhat ambitious, the Coats government now had justification to incorporate further towns in mainland North America into it's domain.  These claims gave further motivation to convince towns on the mainland to join Coats, expanding the nation's influence and de facto national territory.
These claims were not only recognized as national territory but were prioritised over other nations in official maps by EarthMC Live (EMCL) on 11 May 2023, thanks to BetaPlain's help in the mapmaking.  The insistence on these claims resulted in the other nations in the Hudson Bay region being limited to their capital cities, fitting their small amount of influence in the region relative to Coats.
