Armistice of Axenground

After a two-week siege of the town of Bourcan by the ASDF and allied counter-terrorism forces, the guerrillas surrendered, and the camps on the banks of the Orange River were dismantled. The rebel nobles and the terrorists decided to hold a peace conference at Axenground, but the Republic of Atrocha refused to see it as a peace treaty, but rather as an armistice that would end open violence.

In the Axenground Armistice, Atrocha cedes the rest of the Eastern Bank to the sovereignty of the British Valsora "and its Legitimate Government." In exchange, the nobles were to pay a sum of 750 million pesos (707,547,169 million USD) to the Republic of Atrocha as compensation for the damages and deaths caused. Atrocha demanded the surrender of 242 leaders and combatants who participated in the looting, to be brought to trial for having shed Atrochan blood on Atrochan soil.

In addition, the Atrochans would have control rights over the Orange River, over the ports of Newport, Turbaco and Talavera, remaining, despite being British sovereignty, as de facto ports controlled by Atrocha. The Atrochan farms that remain would be respected and any aggression against them would be an aggression against the Republic.

Atrocha would recognize the sovereignty of the Eastern Bank by the legitimate sovereigns, the House of Florence. However, the government of the prime minister, Rodrigo Sosa, was aware that in practice this would be impossible since the rebels would quickly take the territory. The signing of the armistice achieved that the rebels stopped attacking the Atrochans, and the Atrochans ceded land to a future restoration of the old government.

With the Treaty of Tumaco, these territorial losses were compensated by the possession of the island of Gra-Bretanha, renamed Palenque, and millions of Atrochans living in the Banda Oriental came to live in Palenque, imitating the names of their original homes in the new towns that were established.

After the siege of Bourcan, Rebel forces with the aid of Atrocha and her allies, were brutally crushed on the border regions near old Atrochan territory with much of the rebel support disappearing in the coming weeks and months following the Rebel's defeat. While this was happening, the Royalist Forces were able to make advances deep into Rebel held territory and were able to recapture the capital of the Remnant nation. With better organisation and now increased moral support from the residents within the Remnant lands, Royalist forces were soon to advance deep into Rebel territory and in some cases, link up with Atrochan and Allied forces.

With this, the newly victorious Royalists agreed to the Axenground Armistice and then the Treaty of Tumcao which saw great support from the more Irredentist sympathisers, which brought upon massive morale and popular support blows to the Rebels, who quickly lost many, many men from their ranks. Desertions within the Rebel forces were up to their highest level, which was not helped with a general amnesty to Rebel forces given by the Royalists and the already heavy losses suffered by the Rebels. Soon up to 90% of original Remnant land was now under Royalist control.

With the Civil War nearly over, massive celebrations were held in both Atrochan and Royalist cities. The Rule of the House of Florence was quickly re-established and a new constitution was established, quickly softening the powers of the once powerful Oligarchs and establishing a system similar to the original Westminster system of semi-democracy and feudalism. With the disruption now over, many areas saw rapid reconstruction with infrastructure being rebuilt in a rapid and more efficient manner. Demographic losses however, were simply too great to recover from quickly. From an original population of over 35 Million, it has now been reduced to 28 Million and with lasting impacts on the birth rates, due to high deaths among young men.

With that, and the vast expanses of the land and the new shortages of labour, the House of Florence decided to publicly declare a policy of Mass Immigration, primarily of descendants of former British Settlers and Atrochan Migrants to settle Remnant lands. Though fears of xenophobia were high, the trauma and political climate were too much for such fears to actually materialise. Coupled with the new, optimistic and progressive outlook, many laws and policies were quickly passed in the new "House of Valsora" and enacted in a heartbeat with much of it gearing towards greater civil liberties to Remnant citizens and a more modern outlook to appear in public life.

One of the areas hit by the new laws, were the dynamics of the old regime. Prior, the Oligarchs who controlled entire provinces of the Remnant lands as if they were Medieval Kings, in a rather ethno-religious way, are no defeated. With the remaining Nobility being gifted representation in the Upper House of the new Parliament and having a semi-head of state status within Local Government. Another crucial change, was the pivot from Conservative Christian outlook to a more Classical Liberal and Progressive outlook. The Germanic Protestant and other Irredentist Churches had their privileges stripped by the state and system respecting the liberties and rights of individuals took its place.

While this brought major dissatisfaction to many citizens of the Remnant Lands, this saw praise among the greater Valsoran Community who saw the previous Remnant system and to a lesser degree, the British Colonial system, to be outdated and archaic. Now, with greater ties to the wider Valsoran community established, the search of the disappeared Clementine Florence now begins, who by the reports of the captured rebels, is said to have been kidnapped by a shadowey mafia.....

OOC: Big apologies for taking so long due to family and other IRL things I needed to take care off, but at least it's somewhat cleared things up lol.
Atrocha, are you now off the Eastern most island of Solitas according to the last map and those lands now belong to me? If so, lets sort of RP things out a bit more. I just hope the Cartos now what's going on lol
