The Nation of Folie: A Government Timeline

  • Welcome to Folie!

    The island nation of Folie is first populated by myself and the people I bring.
  • Absolute Monarchy Established

    I become queen and hold all the power over the citizens of my queendom. I create the law, uphold the law, and punish those who break the law (off with their heads!). I am the law.
  • Peace and Prosperity

    In the first years as a nation, Folie does well economically, internationally, and domestically. Immense population growth occurs.
  • Uprisings Begin

    citizens of Folie are unhappy with my ruling and some have started small rebellions and uprisings in their cities
  • 'Agents of Justice' Officially Forms

    The rebels have joined together at the national level and are now calling themselves Agents of Justice. There are mass protests, civil disobedience, marches, and violent demonstrations protesting my tyrannical rule.
  • This Means WAR

    Such a fierce ruler as myself would never allow such disrespect as a rebel alliance to occur and I declare war.
  • War Continues

    It has been two years and the war rages on. The rebels are thunderous fighters with most citizens on their sides. It's not looking so good for me but my soldiers continue on.
  • Down Falls the Queen

    The castle has been seized, I am being held hostage. The Justice leader gives me an ultimatum, surrender the crown completely or adhere to their terms of government change.
  • Justice Is Served

    Four days later I decide to agree to their terms. A representative parliament is created and the Justice leader takes his seat on it. Citizens vote in other members and my title is hardly more than nominal.
  • Peace and Prosperity Returns

    The war is over and the nation is healing. I no longer have the stress of being in charge but I still get to wear my crown so it turned out to be a win-win situation. Citizens are happy and the Nation of Folie is thriving again.
