==== Foundation ====

 

==== First Steps ====

Patrician Novaceasar was pearled the 28th of August<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/x09911/novaceasar_pearled_by_twigbranch/</ref> while she was working on the [[Free Danzilonan Republic|Danzilona]] nether by TwigBranch, and her pearl was transported to the Rhode Island nether bunker.

 

 

===Reconstruction Period===

On January 15 the situation escalated when a party of Kallosian and allied combatants attacked an Estalian bunker on the Kallosian border. Fighting broke out but all-out war was avoided. Tensions simmered over the following weeks, which were filled with snitch buzzing, border trespasses, and other harassment. The situation culminated in what would come to be known as the [[Purple War]] on February 11 when the Kallos vault was broken, but the cleanup operations would continue for weeks.

 

 

==== Incorporation of Cordoba ====

 

On the fifth of July, rms_raptor and worldseeker raided northern Impendia including Cascadia and the City of England. A rapid response was dispatched and several Roman and Cordoban fighters enveloped rms_raptor before he was pearled by BradoTomato. Cordoban forces searched through the wilderness until finding the raider base in the northern wastes beyond borders.

In mid July a new commune of settlers came to Impendia and settled in the derelict territories of Terra Leporis Maximi, on the S.P.Q.R. border. After being pearled for  petty raiding, Zombie_Striker returned with Cewp to pillage the beaches of Hispania and Fempire, provoking a strong response. S.P.Q.R. forces occupied the settlement, pearled zombie_striker again, and recovered the sand. Weighing their past and present actions, their stated intentions, and the expected destabilization the group was bringing to the area, they were expelled and the area was officially occupied by the S.P.Q.R.  

 

 

It’s also the time S.P.Q.R. had settled its first new settlement since the end of the Generic War in Tenochtitlan, the temple city founded by Ancom_ThePolpot.

== '''Politics''' ==
