Aurora:Anti-Cascadianism
Anti-Cascadianism is a movement prevalent mostly in North America that encourages the weakening of the Republic of Cascadia and the removal of its influence across North America, notably Canada. The idea comes from the stylization of Cascadia as an empire, due to its already obtaining of the borders of the greater Cascadian region, but still expanding. Anti-Cascadianism does not advocate for the destruction of the Republic of Cascadia as a legal entity, but rather for it to be shrunken down to its original namesake.
History
The movement began gradually taking shape in early November of 2025 in the Town of KalKash, later the Free Town of KalKash. Anti-Cascadian sentiment may well have existed prior to this, however. KalKash had previously been part of Cascadia under the name of KowKash before falling into ruin sometime in late 2024 or early 2025. The town was re-founded On November 1st, 2025. It was believed that Cascadia did not have any real care for the town, which contributed to its ruinous state. In spite of this history, upon the town being made newly independent, Cascadian recruiters began offering nationship back to KalKash. These offers were viewed as offensive by the KalKashian populace, who grew more distrustful of Cascadia as more offers were made. Seeing new towns join Cascadia made some view them as having fallen to the prey of the Cascadian monopoly on North American and even global power.
On December 24th, 2025, the mayor of KalKash, CallMiiChad, officially proclaimed the beginning of the Anti-Cascadian Movement.
