DEUS VULT

Thalmor, Partisan, Shifty, and Roquentin. Everyone knows who they are, their impact over many years in terms of the culture of orbis and impact in major conflicts, and their fame (or infamy) is worth memorializing imo.

Prior to (and even during) the conflict that shouldn't be named, most of FA was a one two punch: Things used to be public, personal (in a good way, a way that adds true passion), and vicious. Rhetorically vicious in the sense that inherent respect for one's opponent was preserved (some of the time), but the point was made to everyone reading. The masses swayed either way, depending on the delivery of the posts. Some select nations were hit, and hard rhetoric was flown by every side imaginable. Things used to be private; However, much like in real-life politics, the leak of backlogs and intelligence frequently shook Orbis. Alliances are changing sides, new minor wars are being declared, sanctions are being imposed left and right, globals are being launched, and new rivalries are beginning and ending. When a leak happened, Shifty would post, and public opinion would sway one way or another, many times being united (and many times not). People would point fingers, raise eyebrows, question their authenticity or affirm it. Espionage felt more impactful then. There's been a disconnect between passion in FA and forum posts, with much of it dumped in backchannels in discord or through other means. Leaks are just simply accepted these days as being expected "for transparency" because of how much negotiating happens off the forums. The use of Discord for FA, imo, came out of necessity to coordinate the clusterF that was that global. However, like many wartime measures, there comes a time where you need to wean off and return, to an extent, to the way things were before. I agree with Thaldad completely.

Ireland, but instead of installing a republic when they gained their independence they formed a constitutional monarchy. https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=71498
