FRIENDS: Difference between revisions

After hearing about [[SATO]]'s planned assault on [[Vítelia|Vitelia]], in tandem with most of [[Rhodesia]] quitting after [[Capri]] got pearled, [[Hallow]] left FRIENDS on January 4th 2019. <ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/acmszg/hallow_has_left_friends/</ref> A few weeks prior to this [[shadedoom]] had written a treaty for his own alliance between [[Columbia]], [[Polska]], and the then-newly formed [[Valyria]]. The original purpose of the alliance was to act as a proxy for FRIENDS. However, however after [[Vítelia|Vitelia]] fell, shade reworked the treaty to serve as a replacement for FRIENDS. [[Shadedoom]] proceeded to invite [[Hallow]] and the [[Holy Jaded Empire|HJE]] to this new alliance. They accepted, and founded [[NATO]] <ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ad5n9i/the_north_axis_treaty_organization_nato/</ref>. [[Rhodesia]] declined to join due to their own resentment towards [[Hallow]] at the time. With the creation of [[NATO]], FRIENDS effectively became obsolete.
