==== Brain Drain ====

During the winter months of January and February, EMC as a whole would experience a natural downturn in activity and engagement, which was also felt in Cascadia. However, beginning near the end of 4Whatok's Presidency, many high profile Cascadian politicians began to leave the nation. A significant number of Arcadians, who had joined Cascadia from Havaiki during the Great American War, returned to their former homeland with the intent of reviving their dormant nation. Among those who left were politicians such as former Vice President and then-Secretary of the Interior, [[FieryMatter]], former President [[Dracnoian]], and other prominent politicians. As the Arcadians left, so too did their holders, causing a major shortage of mayors who could keep Cascadian towns safe in the face of the threat still posed by California or Illinois. On February 16th during the Cascadian General Election of the same month, Vice President Xeocas also left, joining the Arcadians in Havaiki.

In the Great North, the trend continued, as many political hopefuls and active players, such as [[Kipiscute]], [[Sekhnmet]], [[Shadowcipher]], and [[Akirarocks]] also left Cascadia or joined Alaska, beginning a period of decline and low morale. This exodus was also accompanied by the sale of several northern towns to [[Aurora:Alaska|Alaska]], including the transfer of Juneau, Kiawock, and others. Mass migration and territorial shifts would eventually set the stage for Cascadian-Alaskan tensions, which would eventually blow over during Farosh's second term as President, exacerbated by [[Denali]] and long-time enemy of Cascadia, the [[Rocky Mountain Federation]], who were fighting Alaska for territorial domination.
