Second Melbourne Crisis
Luxuria suddenly began sending out communications with much poorer grammar than usual as it announced that it declared war on Lineland in order to reclaim Melbourne and Tasmania. Lineland obviously refused, prompting Luxuria to begin sending videos of advanced military equipment in an attempt to threaten them into doing it, prompting Lineland to snitch on them to the New Sipedroan Republic. Luxuria reasoned that Lineland didn't need it anymore and that they weren't being imperialistic because if they would the George family would be killed. Lineland militarized the border, prompting Luxuria to go on a emotional rant about how Lineland didn't deserve to keep it because it was given when they really needed it and they were being selfish because they didn't anymore, extending this 'arguement' into covering Lineland's membership in the New Axis Powers. Lineland was about to explain their reasooning, when King Elmo Linasburg was suddenly assassinated as the 'real' Luxuria returned to control. It was revealed that Elmo had no heirs and therefore the House of Linasburg was effectively extinct, plunging the country into uncertainty as Luxuria returned to speaking in the poor grammar tone as it argued with itself over which prince of Luxuria should rule Lineland. The leader of Taiwan was revealed to have ordered the assassination, though this lacked full evidence and its not like Lineland was capable of doing anything about this, prompting it to hold elections in 1 month for new leadership while Prime-Minister Vanya ruled until then, which made Castrovalence spike to 0.029.
George George of Luxuria went to go get tea, allowing his kids to take over Luxuria's international communications and demand Melbourne and Tasmania again, which Lineland refused once more. Yetia refused to help "Luxuria" with taking over the territory, though Taiwan appeared to be willing as it talked about all the bad things Lineland did to it during its occupation of the island, though "Luxuria" refused Taiwan demanding violent tactics. Islandia was actually willing to help Luxuria peacefully, which made Castrovalence spike to 0.045. Luxuria's communications became chaotic as whoever was running it revealed they were doing this because they wanted to prove that Liam II George was unfit to be the next heir, leading to a fight between the controller and Liam II.
