The '''Kingdom of the Acadian Lewis Islands''' (KALI) was an [[OMN]] (one man nation) in the [[Geographical Regions#Lewis Archipelago|Lewis Archipelago]] in the [[+,- (CivClassic 2.0)|+,- quadrant]] on [[CivClassic]], founded by [[Pandastical]], that existed briefly from late May 2021 to early June 2021. It was situated right to the east of the Acadian mainland, and to the west of the [[Kingdom of Fish]], comprised of one of the main islands of the western Lewis Archipelago. Its existence was ended by the annexation by [[Acadia]] and the region's reinstatement as an organized territory within the Federal Republic of Acadia after ~two weeks of continued drama.
Originally, KALI was Pandastical's personal/private land, separate from [[Acadia]] and unclaimed by any nation, originating from around late April 2021 with the move of Acadia from [[CivUniverse]] to CivClassic.<ref>Announcement of personal claim: [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/n1hesl/claiming_this_land_to_the_right_of_acadia_in_the/ link] (reddit post)</ref> Not long after Pandastical chose to merge it into Acadia as a an 'organized territory' within the federal structure.<ref>Announcement of the merge into Acadia: [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/n26rab/this_region_has_now_joined_acadia_as_a_new_state/ link] (reddit post)</ref> The territory was named after the Lewis Archipelago and thus became the Territory of the Lewis Islands.

However, due to political disagreements with other Acadians and after seeing a series of bills he drafted vetoed by the Acadian Senate after passing the National Assembly, Pandastical seceded the territory from Acadia following legal procedures on May 30th, 2021. He declared the territory independent and called it 'the Kingdom of the Acadian Lewis Islands'.<ref>Announcement of independence: [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/nosidy/the_kingdom_of_the_acadian_lewis_islands_has/ link] (reddit post)</ref> While Acadia recognized the secession, they did not recognize the name of its new neighbor as they did not want to be accidentally associated or confused with the new nation. Acadia issued an official statement 'On the Status of the Lewis Islands' stating that it disavowed the usage of the term 'Acadian' and that it would henceforth recognize it neighbor as 'the Kingdom of the Lewis Islands'.
As a response, KALI banned all Acadians from entering its territory, which Acadia saw as an provocation. Acadia issued a new statement on June 2nd: 'On the Escalation from the Kingdom of the Lewis Islands', where it responded in kind and declared Pandastical to be PNG (Persona non Gratae) in Acadia until he removed the ban against Acadians, renamed the name of the OMN to remove the term 'Acadian', and paid reparations of 16 diamonds or 256 iron. Pandastical refused to meet these demands and mistakenly thought that Acadia had declared war against him. In what he thought was a response to this, he decided to declare war against Acadia. The result was a brief Acadian occupation of the island, 'the 40 Minutes War', until the misunderstanding was cleared up. Afterwards, Acadian participant [[Aelfred]] was tried and declared guilty of petty theft and vandalism committed during the occupation by Acadia.
