== History ==
The W.C.O was founded on March 11, 2018, during the Rotterdam Conference where the governing treaty was ratified.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/83q0gq/some_of_the_highlights_from_the_bot_debate_that/</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/83qe5f/an_image_of_the_rotterdam_conference_showing_the/</ref> The alliance existed for only a mere few weeks until [[Yoahtl (CivClassic)|Yoahtlan]] leadership accused Königsberg of orchestrating a series of altraids targeting [[Yoahtl (CivClassic)|Yoahtl]].<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/84imm1/konigsberg_has_deliberately_openly_and_clearly/</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/7sg5sp/my_side/</ref> This caused the [[Holy Jaded Empire]] to withdraw from the alliance.

Over the following few weeks [[Columbia]] also collapsed due to internal conflicts<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/896y8d/the_fall_of_a_monarchy/</ref>, effectively rendering the alliance defunct. Eventually this alliance would be succeeded by the [[FRIENDS]] alliance, which contained both the [[Holy Jaded Empire|HJE]], [[Columbia]], and many players from former W.C.O nations.
