The 2024 Iavonian coup d'état was a self-coup staged by Adrian Laziades, the Prime Minister of Iavonia. Occuring shortly after the expression of pro-Nifonese sentiments by George XIII, the coup was timed to coincide day-wise with the beginning of Laziades' first Prime Ministership in 2016. The preparations for the coup, which had been organized swiftly throughout the proceeding week, were supposedly named Operation Ephialtes.
The coup was primarily motivated by already existing anti-monarchic sentiment, alongside the desire for wide-reaching reforms on the part of Laziades which had been prevented by monarchic or monarchic-influenced action. The necessity of the coup has been severely debated both internationally and domestically, with supporters of such pointing to the lack of constitutional means for the weakening or removal of the monarchic system, while opponents have pointed to the overt violence and previously negative relationship between the former monarch and Laziades as a direct reason for said violence, delegitimizing the moral argument of the coupists. A constitutional reform establishing a presidential role in the new republic separate from Laziades was held on the 16th of June.

Thornley-Nifonese Setsuzoku Argument
From the period of May 29th to May 30th, an argument occurred between Isabelle Thornley, a spokesperson for the Eulabian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and both Maki Seijuro (brother to Nifonese leader Maki Kojiro) and Tokugawa Asuka (Baroness of Kariwa and Minister of Foreign Affairs). The argument was over a previous statement from Maki Kojiro, which disagreed with the legitimacy of the coup and insinuated a divine right in relation to the former monarch. Thornley, while not disagreeing with concern over the matter, insinuated both that such concern was false in nature from Kojiro, who had come to power in a similar and to some degree more violent coup, and additionally was based on false theories of legitimacy.
The three parties would argue for a period of time, the key events of which included an accusation of pedophilia on the part of Seijuro (a convicted murderer) and the walking-back of such by Tokugawa. The argument would continue until the posting of a statement by Iavonia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which, while responded to by Tokugawa, has not caused further conversation.
