Line 148:
Pavia saw an influx of donations from across the world stage, from nations to individuals and organisations such as the Red Cross lending a material hand.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/wv4qze/the_red_cross_has_successfully_completed_another/</ref>
 
The 28th of August would see another incursion by Rhode Island, TheKingCacti pushed into Pavia himself and ultimately overextended resulting in his pearling by Estalian fighter, S4NTA. <ref>https://i.imgur.com/SV5Cgb2.png</ref>It was another week until the next incursion by Rhode Island into Pavia took place. In the early hours of the10th of September, Adderal rushed into the bedrock area of the Terminus Vault and attempted to break entry pressure plates and doors on the west side of the vault before quickly retreating upon response by Pavian and Estalian fighters.
 
===== The Last Stand =====
Line 159:
As a result of this near-death clash, the Crown Prince issued the No Surrender Decree, remarking 'Pavia is in our lifeblood, the very essence of this nation from the ground up courses through our veins, and without Pavia we shall be nothing but wandering drifters without a purpose. Pavia cannot fall without a fight, a fight which I shall see lasts until every one of us has shed blood in the name of our fine Principality. We shall stand strong, linked arm in arm, beekeepers standing with Lords, Dukes standing with miners, and everyone standing alongside the Crown Prince.'<ref>https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kZkzoZiWqQ8OkNAfF5pHQUFT-y8s1lmJ/view?usp=sharing</ref>
 
This assault quickly became meme-ified in Pavian culture, revolving around the confusion and quick turn-around of events, especially regarding the drunken nature of the defenders that engulfed the voice-chat during the events. <ref>https://i.imgur.com/RgYMIJ3.png</ref><ref>https://i.imgur.com/YNizZc7.png</ref><ref>https://i.imgur.com/ZMpHzyf.png</ref>
 
A copycat attack would take place on the 13th of September by Rhode Island, with Adderral, Ez2clutch, CostcoFruits and Hangoverd storming the bedrock of the Terminus Vault, however the attackers would quickly be repelled by a large cohort of coalition fighters, with the skirmish leaving minimal damage to Pavia.
Line 202:
The election of Creepi0n I on the 15th of October marked the first time Pavia had a monarch not of Gabonese origin, and the first non-Wanderer or non-Gijahr to hold the throne.
 
Within hours of the start of his reign, Creepi0n hosted the signing of the FCC between Pavia, the Imperial Federation, Pridelands, and Venne. To prepare for this international gathering, the flags of each signing party was hung from the Pavian Townhall and the Bureau of Architecture outfitted the Throne Room with a suitable signing table, and adorned the ceiling with gold blocks.<ref>https://i.imgur.com/dw8gnf7.png</ref> This diplomatic endeavor was coupled with internal political changes at the very top of the Principality, with the Privy Council simultaneously unanimously voting to revoke the Ducal title of CeasarBiggles and dissolve the Duchy of Caeseria back into Crownland. This removal of a Duke was the first of its kind in Pavia, and whilst the split between the outgoing Duke and Privy Council was said to be amicable, this instance set precedence for the Crown Prince to utilise their given powers more freely. The sixth Ducal position would be filled by CedarValiant just 4 days later on the 19th of Oct, receiving a unanimous approval of his Ducal petition for the lands of Avalonna.
 
The Von Thusis period would oversee a transformation of the Pavia state away from the necessary socialist/collectivist economic system into a state-guided capitalist framework. Vast expansion of the city housing would see the founding of the Monument Group, a property development company with the goal of leasing and selling property to individuals. The property company would soon be granted the power to bestow citizenship on property purchasers, which the Monument Group would incorporate into their sales at a base price of 32d, later raising this to 64d on the 11th of November.
