Universalis was a small alliance founded on Feb. 28, 2008. It disbanded later that year due to the Universalis-Poseidon War. It later reformed in May 2009.

The nucleus of Universalis consists of people that know each other from the Paradox Interactive community off-site forums. Their CN-history started in The Order of the Paradox (TOP). However, due to various reasons and at various times, these nations left TOP to explore Planet Bob outside the well-known house that was TOP. These "Paradoxians" adrift found a home, or merely shelter, in various alliances. Lemeard started up his own alliance with Templar and empirica named Genesis. Frozen-rpg was the leader of UNION, a former protectorate of TOP. A new initiative from several TOP-ers was the alliance of CEN, which was subsequently attacked by TOP for recruiting its members. Some of these CEN-ers would later find their way to Universalis.

[edit] Creation

On Feb. 28, 2008, Lemeard announced the creation of Universalis on the CN-boards. Initially, the announcement attracted hostility from TOP and there were some misconceptions about the meaning of "Paradoxian". However, these differences were quickly resolved.

Well aware that Planet Bob can be a dangerous place, the creation of Universalis coincided with the signing of a Protectorate treaty with the Confederacy of Imperial States. The Protectorate treaty and the creation of Universalis were announced virtually simultaneously.

[edit] War

Soon after its successful creation, Universalis found itself under pressure from the alliances MOON and Genesis. It was claimed that Universalis had recruited members from these alliances and CIS was, based on evidence MOON/Genesis said they had, pressed to drop the Protectorate. With Universalis now exposed (although hiding in peace mode), MOON and Genesis made their demands known. They were harsh and included, among other things, perma-ZI for Lemeard and Johann as well as a MOON/Genesis Viceroyship over Universalis. Evidence was proved correct against allegations of Universalis recruting from MOON, as it drew support from the New Polar Order and the MCXA. During this time it was learned that, indeed, a member of Universalis had been sending messages to old friends that could be explained as recruiting. This proved to be a shock for some of Universalis' members, but the bonds stayed strong; the demands from MOON/Genesis were still seen as overly harsh. Universalis was strengthened to learn that many within the wider world of CN as well as within the alliances of MOON and Genesis felt the same. No diplomatic break through could be reached, however, and therefore MOON and Genesis declared war.

With Universalis in peace mode, the war mainly consisted of MOON/Genesis sending spies over to entertain the various Universalis nations. The military front was a quiet one, but on the diplomatic front, things weren't standing still. Soon, negotiations were renewed and after a series of proposals and counter proposals, a compromise both sides could live with was reached. Universalis was again at peace.

[edit] Friends

The alliance of Vanguard had been one of Universalis' first friends, but (the threat of) war had been standing in the way of signing an official treaty to acknowledge these close bonds. However, with peace declared, both alliances were quick to sign the Treaty of Vindolanda, an MDoAP born out of friendship, trust and loyalty.

[edit] Membership

Although the core of Universalis consists of "Paradoxian" veterans, Universalis is by no means a closed alliance. Admission rules are tough, though. Not intended to become a big player in CN, but instead a tight knit groups of friends, admission is open only to those that the current membership considers close friends.

[edit] Disbandment

As of the 21st of September, and with all Universalis members on The Legion Perma-ZI list. The alliance has officially disbanded.
