At 6:00am EST ([[yodabird19]]'s time zone), Vice President of [[Cortesia Del Mar]] [[yodabird19]] was pearled by the Socialist Federal Republic of [[Nyasaland]]'s Commissar [[BennyZ]] at the nation's capital's rail station.

At 7:40pm EST, [[yodabird19]] returned to [[DUMP]]'s leadership chat; [[Oko]] claimed that the [[Entente]] alliance had read [[Kayla]]'s attack on its member as an attack by closely-associated [[Eddie Murphy]], and was dispatching forces to break [[Eddie Murphy]]'s [[vault]] and pearl [[Oko]]<ref>https://discord.com/channels/803462577979654145/803467222365634560/811405099825365012</ref>. To avoid this, [[Eddie Murphy]] hurriedly handed primary ownership of its [[vault]] namelayer group to [[Naglafer]], relieving the hulking newfriend nation of the asset for which it might have been attacked (and preserving the vault, as [[Naglafer]] was more respected by the [[Entente]] than [[Oko]]). To prevent any implication of the alliance, [[yodabird19]] shot out [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/llik2y/with_respect_to_recent_attacks_on_peace/ a condemnation of Kayla's actions]<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/llik2y/with_respect_to_recent_attacks_on_peace/</ref> by 8:15pm EST.

===February 19, 2021 ===
At 8:15pm EST, [[Camokool]], who had formerly been kept out of primitivist [[DUMP]] nation [[Gul]]'s territory by an independent Murphian intervention, declared his intent to reestablish his antithetical nation of the [[Veldt]]<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/lnvm90/reestablishment_of_the_veldt/</ref>. Due to the predicament of [[Eddie Murphy]], this second Gul-Veldt conflict moved to the slow and tense realm of diplomacy, where the claim conflict simmered for exactly one month before [[Gul]] dissolved on March 19, 2021<ref>https://discord.com/channels/803462577979654145/803467556110467093/822527139613507645</ref>, handing the contested land to the Veldt by default.

The collapse of [[Eddie Murphy]] had profound effects on its former alliance, the [[DUMP]]. Formerly an alliance of decidedly weak nations protected by a "babysitter" [[Eddie Murphy]], the defensive alliance, stripped of its most militarily capable member, was forced to dramatically realign its operations. With both [[Anyakova]] and [[The Empire]] inactive in the extreme, [[Cortesia Del Mar]] became the alliance's tentative centerpiece. The [[DUMP]]'s remaining active nations (at this time, [[Cortesia]], [[Monterrey]], and [[Blackwell]]) experienced strong pressure to develop rapidly and grow defensive capabilities, a pressure which remains in play to the present.
