Osoyoos (political faction): Difference between revisions

=== Feuds with Frontier and Jefferson ===

Immediately after the September elections, Osoyoos publicly scorned the Frontier as political enemies, accusing them of betrayal. They claimed that the Frontier violated a pact they made, that they would put each other's presidential candidates, Flatvent_One and Beamz30 in second-preference, which would boost both factions electorally above the Social Democrat faction of Cascadia. Frontier-supporting voters did not do this, mainly putting EmpressCorgo as their second preference vote instead of Flatvent. The Frontier denied such a pact ever being agreed to, and as it would have it, no evidence for such a deal has come up since. Regardless, Osoyoos supporters and leaders immediately started to spar with Frontier ones, in arguments in Cascadia's international general chat that would last thousands of messages over a couple days.   

Both factions would appeal to the Corgo Administration to take their side, however EmpressCorgo elected not to take a side, at least at first. By this point, both factions were still neutral or even friendly with the Social Democrat faction. Regardless of this, EmpressCorgo sympathized with the Frontier side of the feud, believing Osoyoos's accusation to be erroneous and their agitation to be arbitrary. As EmpressCorgo's cabinet included both Frontiersmen and Osoyans, her cabinet would be ideologically split this term, and entrenched, toxic arguments would spring in the cabinet chat, something that was and continues to be extremely rare in Cascadia's cabinet chats. Eventually, EmpressCorgo had enough and fired Flatvent_One from her cabinet on October 5th, replacing him with GreshamBTW, who was another Osoyan, but less agitating to the other cabinet members.

Osoyoo's immediate reaction was of extreme anger, and they decided to hold a speech in their hometown of the same name, of which around a dozen came. It was revealed by Milgorn123 however that the platform the audience stood on was actually a carpet trap. Because of his actions, only a single person died to the trap, and he was later awarded with the Cascadian Medal of Freedom. In the voice chat, Osoyan leaders in extreme anger denounced Cascadia, complained about Cascadia's electoral system, the [[Nonpartisan proportionality|Single Transferable Vote]], and announced their secession from Cascadia to start a nation in Africa, later known to be Chad, which happened immediately after.  

The Osoyoos Secession happened throughout the night and into the next day. At 12:07:45 AM, the first town to secede, Mt. Constantinople led by Thither138 left. 30 seconds after at 12:08:11 AM, Baroque Works, Flatvent's town left the nation followed by Osoyoos itself just 3 seconds later. They were then followed by Grande Furry a minute later at 12:09:14 AM. At 12:22:20, Orbit2510 left the nation under Fairview. At 12:25:41, Alucart founded the first town of what would become the main metropolitan area of Chad, named "Akenuts" at the time of founding. After this, Rodekeel's town of Windhelm and Sierra Vista under YoOscar would leave later on.
