Line 116:
This, however, was not the case. On multiple occasions, Grundeswald found itself under attack, and failed to receive aide from its FAGT comrades. During one terrorist attack on the Grundeswegian supply cache in Vault 420, it was suspected that a high-ranking FAGT official had actually orchestrated the carnage. From its inception, the UIA was little more than a nominal alliance that failed to get anything done.

====Laozi====
Line 121 ⟶ 123:
Laozi, founded by a Fellowship defector, had been granted independence from Fellowship on a bilateral basis, receiving consent from the Fellowship government to administer itself. When the Laozi leadership petitioned Grundeswald for annexation, however, the Fellowship government quickly recanted and began and military occupation of the island. Grundeswegian soldiers marched to the scene and a standoff began, while propagandists took to producing media to get the rest of the server on-side.

Eventually, Kovio and Sintralin came to a diplomatic agreement that saw Fellowship recognising Grundeswegian ownership of most of the island of Vrystaat in exchange for Grundeswald relinquishing its claims on Laozi. The Laozi population was invited to resettle in Grundeswald, but no permanent settlement was even constructed. This conflict spelled the beginning of the end for the UIA, as Grundeswald received little to no support from the FAGT against Fellowship.
Line 129:
Although the people of Aytos under Grundeswegian rule were technically allowed to do just about anything they pleased, an air of freedom was permeable all over the city. Of the 100 shares in the stock of the city, less than half were owned by native citizens of Aytos. Stratmatt, an Aytian citizen who wanted to bring life back to the city, sought out and acquired all 100 shares, on the condition that Aytos remained a Grundeswegian dominion with Kovio as its viceroy. Stratmatt initially agreed, but emboldened by their influential neighbours in the from of Orion, Nexus, and Carson, Aytos, under Stratmatt, declared its independence.
Grundeswald was willing to acquiesce, but unilateral declaration of independence left a sour taste in the Grundeswegians' mouths. The world was united in its desire to see people govern themselves, and eventually Grundeswald backed down, letting Aytos go free. FAGT, once again, failed to offer Grundeswald any support, and it was assumed from this point forward at the UIA was dead.
===Grundeswegian 'Empire'===
====Northern Expansion====
As Aytos broke away from Grundeswald, the Grundeswegians longed to replace they wayward colony with something closer to home. The disputes over Vrystaat, Laozi, and now Aytos had convinced most of them that overseas endeavours were simply not worth the effort. To the north of the Bulawayo swamp and the 0-axis road that had been used as Grundeswald's northern border months were vast tracts of virgin land ripe for the taking.
None had ventured beyond that 0-axis line other than Greenkitten and Mazznoff, whose efforts to unite New Salisbury and New Leningrad by rail had given them a decent understanding of the geography. The "Red Line" between the two nations' capitals went underneath an expansive plain that was later determined to be part of the same biome as the Gundagai and Helfontein regions. Greenkitten and Mazznoff claimed this land in the name of Ronald Grundeswald, tasking Chris with deciding administrative borders. The far northern island of Naphtali would become the domain of an old high-ranking Katar, Sikandar. The landmass surrounding the 0-axis road would become the Bembezi territory, a place of extreme tactical importance. Mazznoff would assert the extent of the Bulawayo territory even further north, and in his survey of his new land, he and Greenkitten discovered and abandoned city of Boston.
Like 42 and Torp before it, Boston was a dilapidated, decayed city. Greenkitten, Mazznoff, and Chris expressed their right to annex territory to Grundeswald and incorporated the city of Boston into the kingdom. The old leaders of Boston were contacted, and they were thrilled that someone had shown interest in their long-forgotten settlement, quickly assenting to Grundeswegian rule. Satisfied with the new borders of Grundeswald, Grundeswald proper would not expand significantly for the rest of Grundeswegian history.
====Gensokyo====
Kovio disagreed with the common consensus that Grundeswald should do away with overseas territories, and set searching for a place in the sun to call his own. Mt. Augusta, which had been founded in the valley of Mt. Istanbul, was undergoing a mayoral election and Kovio started having visions of the Aytian Empire that was robbed from him.
