Line 182:
The first instance of the Monarch using extralegal power was when the resignation of Matanic was heavily lobbied and pressured for- rather than a break, using the pretext of the mishandling of the first “[[Astonia|Astonian]] Crisis”. This opened the door to further interventions and the previous covenant was silently bypassed. This rising trend of political interference came with the rise of the Kodakane- a radical Indojic sect which believed in the installation of an Emperor and the subservience of any secular government to religious sentiment. At the peak of its power, the current Civil Guard Captain SamuelWizard, subscribed to this ideology and plans were drafted to make a political militia to enforce its demands.
 
The weight of the Black Fang Tribe- loyal to the monarch only and the Kodakane, began to spill into politics. During Incentives’ term they attempted to use their influence to have Kalipso crowned emperor which failed. Furthermore government resources were asked of, misallocated or even embezzled into projects such as the Royal Palace and a library that was never finished. On the 23rd of August, under the pretext of whether Adina should record its unwritten Indojic heritage, religious laws were passed (Imperator had narrowly avoided prosecution previously for treason over Incentives converting to [[Eastern Orthodoxy|Orthodoxy]], due to the intercession of the sitting President Matanic). These laws would include real life topics, inexplicably, and created an atmosphere of fear that dissent would be treasonous. On one occasion the Black Fang were mistakenly set on the President for treason after a miscommunication about a political action. It would become apparent that despite the smoke and mirrors, the Black Fang hardly existed and the Kodakane was primarily a political front for Kalispo and Cocobeaa’s political ambitions- though at the time it was less apparent.
 
A deal to absorb [[Ashelor]] into Adina- on the basis of a largely beneficial agreement was sabotaged due to Kalipso’s unwillingness to compromise over religion. In the argument that descended, he asserted he could dissolve the civilian government whenever he wanted. Incentives finally resigned, realising his lack of autonomy, the second President to have done so on account of the monarchy. He would be the last to do so.
Line 447:
Whilst the primary threat of radicals deposing the regime had receded, there still remained low-lying hostilities and fears of a return to high-level hostilities. The then (as stipulated by Astonian Lands Treaty) deposed Emperor of [[Astonia]] SinjoroJoCrafter violated borders and committed acts of petty vandalism.
 
The creation of the [[Free City of Arlington]] and its cessation to Astonia<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/e00jq9/arlington_ceases_to_exist/</ref>, and his alleged involvements in instituting demands to the legitimate ruler of [[Astonia]], gave rise to a concern that Astonia would be the new Antigua for radicals under SinjoroJoCrafter’s unstated influence. Yet due to a hiatus from the game, it was impossible for Adinan authorities to pursue him. When he returned at last, he was still in Adinan territories and would attempt to flee via rail to ’his’ territory. An alert was sounded. It was widely expected that he had managed to successfully flee, but due to the tenacity of ImperatorMendes in pursuing him, the two were close, with a reserve division of the a Civil Guard (pamaxwell and matanic1107) lagging somewhat behind to provide support.
 
Eventually the two would enter personal combat, with Imperator winning the combat with not a single heart of damage. Proving all suspicions prior, SinjoroJoCrafter then collapsed the Astonian government, declaring himself Emperor- in violation of the Lands a Treaty- and Imperator POS in an attempt to bring reinforcements into what seemed would be a wider conflict with Adina over his criminality. These reinforcements never came, and he would be interned in Adina whilst he sat trial. An international tribunal would be convened to ascertain his guilt in violating the treaty. The conference convened against permapearl as a matter of principle and thought more on sanctions- eventually settling on four months; although SirFriendzone of Aurum decided to hold [[SinjoroJoCrafter]] permanentlyfor regardlessan indefinite period, him only being released nine months later due to the dereliction of SirFriendzone's vault.
 
=====The Splintering of Astonian Rule=====
Line 456:
The [[Imperial Truidence]] would go onto declare a Astonian puppet state<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/e571ka/the_thirteenth_state_of_downer_astonia/</ref> in the region of Decatur. Reports suggest that farms were burned and looted during the rough occupation.
 
On the 22nd weak Astonian government collapsed<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/edsm0i/end_of_fifth_state_of_astonia/?</ref> to an international community widely expecting this to happen. Adina would be given all remaining Astonian lands, perhaps believing that Adina would provide a gentler occupation than the [[Imperial Truidence]] or other treaty signatories. Surveying of the lands would reveal the state[[Free City of [[Arlington]] was another front for an Astonian government-in-exile, vindicating this strain of thought.
 
An auction of the capital lands and the Imperial Title came much to the benefit of the Government Treasury and marked the end of a long history of strife with [[Astonia]].
