== The Temporal Schism/2nd Temporal Coup ==
'''Context'''
Members of the previous government were allowed to return to the Temporal Isles on a number of conditions, the most notable of which was that all military infrastructure in the area would be built on groups owned by [[PhysicsGamer]] , so as to eliminate risk of a second coup or other such action which could destabilize the new status quo. However, Mushroom_Cultist was soon discovered constructing a bunker hole which had not yet had the contained bunker constructed, leaving sufficient deniability on the nature of the bunker for competing perspectives of the nature of the bunker hole. Mushroom_Cultist claimed it was simply a storage bunker after the events of the incident, while PhysicsGamer had no way to confirm this assertion, and therefore believed it was hostile in nature. [[PhysicsGamer]], having been working on defensive infrastructure in the area for the past week, discovered Mushroom in the middle of excavating the bunker hole, which had an obsidian floor at the bedrock to prevent disabling. PhysicsGamer initially asked Mushroom questions about the nature of the hole, with Mushroom making declarations such as "what's a diamond vein" when asked why he was quarrying and asked if he was mining a diamond vein. As questioning progressed, PhysicsGamer determined that Mushroom was playing dumb to the situation, and instructed Mushroom to CTR the obsidian to an admin group he gave Mushroom access to with the intent of preventing potential hostility. In response, Mushroom elected to flee, with PhysicsGamer pearling him during the flight to determine what to do when the pearl was in hand. [[PhysicsGamer]] immediately ran over to Butternut Vault to act as a scarecrow while determining what to do, as Butternut had declared it was not getting involved. Gang Shi's vault was not sufficiently activated at the time to hold the pearl safely, which was determined in a voice call between GS leadership including PhysicsGamer himself. ▼

'''The Incident'''
▲
[[PhysicsGamer]] kept the pearl in his inventory as a mix of Icenian, Icarian, and Yoathlan players chased him along with some other volunteers including a Gang Shi citizen, Fastestgrass. There was heavy debate within the Gang Shi government on what to do, with JB advocating for backing PhysicsGamer in the situation from a position of empathy for the situation PhysicsGamer found himself in. Fastest, by contrast, advocated that a conflict was not worth the effort due to the nature of the conflict as a distant event from Gang Shi. Eventually [[PhysicsGamer]] determined he was unable to effectively flee the situation without immediate backup. He was forced to throw the pearl off the skybridge he was holed up on, and jump to his death on the ground below. Negotiations began, with numerous proposals offered, including even constructing a second Temporal Isles elsewhere to allow for independent Temporal Isles nations to exist simultaneously. [[PhysicsGamer]] was opposed to abandoning his home territory due to emotional attachment and investment in the area, and offered to personally fund efforts to make the Bacon faction whole, offering diamonds, alternative land, and the previously pitched "push TI somewhere else" idea. Following internal discussions between PhysicsGamer and Jbblocker, PhysicsGamer conceded to a deal in which reparations would be paid from Icarus, and all Temporal land outside of the home islands would be placed under the administration of PhysicsGamer. The Temporal Empire was then formed in these territories, primarily composed of [[PhysicsGamer]] , SirAlador, and Shady_Warri0r, with a monarchical power structure and an explicit Gang Shi alliance. The New Temporal Isles was formed primarily with the players [[Dr Bacon Hair]], Jaimiemie, and Mushroom_Cultist with Icenian, Icarian, and Yoathlan backing.
