COG
Important to know
Maybe the government was turned over on December 8th.
Good point.
That date or perhaps it was Nov. 8th that was a random one line reply that included the exact time the government was handed over, to a post about COG. I didn't pay attention at the time but maybe?
We KNOW COG is in effect as orders came down through USCG. We aren't seeing that part of it as most digs have focused on military government and not a civil government installed in an Emergency.
The stuff about the 1870 Republic could be in play, and together with COG could explain why Xiden took a fake oath.
Hold the line.
