However, life was still hard on the island, with poverty rates increasing and state funding decreasing, it was only a matter of time before the state goes into anarchy. However, in 452 GD, the State Council passed a resolution that would increase funding inexchange for 1/3 of all produce that farmers made that would be stored when winter comes.
