Infinity War, also known as the BoO Banking Crisis; Roman Empire Banking Crisis; or Polar-Cam War; was a war that started on February 5th 2023 after multiple alliances, notably Arrgh, World Task Force, and the New Polar Order blitzed the alliance Roman Imperial Republic, an alliance that split from Roman Empire after an internal dispute between Tiberius Aurion and Germanicus Caesar regarding Bank of Orbis (BoO) and other alliance-related issues. After the blitz many alliances came to RIR's aid including Camelot, Grand Union of Nations, and Aeterna. The later stages of the war are known for the sack and merge of NPO into The Coal Mines.

History

April - The Sack of ConstantiNPOle

On April 2nd, a white peace was agreed between Camelot and World Task Force, Momento Mori, and the rest of the coalition. Momento Mori agreed not to re-enter the conflict, and Cam and WTF signed a four-month duration NAP. This, however, excluded New Polar Order. Members who were unable to enter vacation mode were singled-out and cycled again and again by Camelot, wiping most militaries and improvements. From March to April, NpO's score dropped by 30-40% down to 60k- the lowest the alliance had been for almost four years. The alliance also dropped below rank #60, being intermittently replaced by the Unforgiven Legion over the course of the month.

Eaten

Eatem removing himself as Emperor and going on to make offshores named Corn Silo

Members of NpO knew what was coming and prepared to an extent. Emperor EaTeMup fled with some of the bank to an offshore, before too much could be looted by Camelot. Jadenstar remained regent while the Corn Silo offshore was chased by Camelot. Despite the losses, NpO members refused to surrender and allowed their nations to be cycled, in protest of Camelot's demands -which, hopefully, would eventually make them give up and agree to a less extreme peace treaty and let NpO gradually rebuild after. However, the ship had sailed for any sort of complete White Peace or a loss with compromised concessions, as NpO was extremely weakened and the chances of any allied counters were near zero. After 60 days of fighting, the war had entered a new phase- going from an active coalition counter war, to a slow and bitter rolling of NpO members.

May - The Maggie Thatchering

NPO GOV MAY 2023

Dendarii's new stripped-down government

As New Polar Order continued to get attacked into May, members began to leave and the score dropped further. Regent Jadenstar left to form an offshore known as the Union of Grub, and was replaced by Imperial Council member Dendarii, who immediately began stripping down the government to just a few councillors (it is unknown if the orders to do so were from Regent Dendarii, or Emperor EaTeMup according to the alliance's charter). The Imperial Liaison role was unofficially dissolved, as Bohemond Hauteville went inactive.

The score drop slowed down a little, as a non-gov player known as Luinil led the resistance against Camelot, crippling multiple nations and keeping the defensive somewhat afloat with his counters. Despite this, hope remained low and losses high as the member count dropped from 24 to 19 by the 15th, and the little resistance remained impossibly outnumbered. By the 30th, NpO had dropped down to 41k score, 15 members and were at 70th alliance rank. Like in April, New Polar Order refused to surrender, and EaTeMup remained stoic on discord, kicking any outspoken Camelot opponents. NpO sought new allies to assist them, and signed a MDOAP with The Coal Mines. However, fearing financial support and an eventual downright counter, Camelot preemtively blitzed TCM on the 14th, reigniting activity in the war. This time around, Camelot were more evenly matched on low, mid and high tier. Both initially made moderate damages, and both initially lost 20k+ in score within a week.

June - Peace and Legacy

On the 4th of June, after one final attempt at diplomacy, NPO agreed to a treaty where surrender is to be publicly admitted and two diplomats, one of which being Bohemond Hauteville, are denounced for previous actions in NPO's Last Time. NPO was also made to admit to many negative actions they were accused for during the war and that they were ultimately an aggressor. Although there were no quantitative reparations included in the peace terms, NPO's severe debt and damage from the war, as well as guaranteed positions for government members and previous diplomats such as Bohemond, led to the alliance members formally merging into TCM on the 6th of June, 2023. To the Cam-bros, this was seen as an utter triumph as the previous NPO wars were avenged and the alliance was absorbed. However, the alliance page is still around to this day and currently contains only Eatem, the last Emperor, and AlmightyGrub. Although dispersed, many NPO members still have their alliance flag on their profiles and work together inside the government of TCM, Cam's enemy. Whether NPO is ever revived or not, the war has left a definite mark on the community and its presence in the game.

Behind the name

1st may NPO score

NPO's score as of the 1st of May, 2023

Infinity War was chosen as Camelot kept insisting this was the endgame, in which either New Polar Order or Camelot would be rolled till they disband. New Polar Order has stated they do not intend to roll Camelot out of the game. The name Endgame used to also refer to NPO's Last Time, a war that was suspected to result in NPO, SCX, and allies rolling out most of the game. The name also refers to all the various micro alliances that took part over the course of the war.
