* Banning of the [[Conservative Historical Party]]

* Banning of [[Verionist Union]]
* Banning of the [[Conservative Historical Party]] for their overt allegiance to a foreign despot whose territorial ambitions and plans for self-aggrandisement were well known and ultimately culminated in the [[Second Amokolian War]];
* Banning of the [[Libertarian Party]], the [[Patriotic Alliance of Cimmeria and Kiladôr]], and the [[Holy Party of the Divine Icebear]]
* Banning of the [[Libertarian Party]], the [[Patriotic Alliance of Cimmeria and Kiladôr]], and the [[Holy Party of the Divine Icebear]], on account of their attempts at organising a Verionist revival in the [[Bailiwicks of Elwynn|bailiwicks]] of the former [[Northern Commonwealth]];
* Banning of the [[Movement for a Free Elwynn]]
* Banning of the [[Movement for a Free Elwynn]], for being yet another attempt at organising a Verionist revival in the former Northern Commonwealth combined with an effort to force the dismantling of the collective trade and security arrangements of Eastern Benacia;

* Banning of the [[Ayreonist Independence Party]], the [[Communist Party of Elwynn]], and the [[Amokolian Freedom Front]], for their part in the [[Coldwater Scandal]] (the sale of confiscated [[Iron Company]] assets to a [[Coldwater Company|front-company]] owned by a prominent Verionist family), the persistent attempts at sabotaging Elwynn's contribution to the defence of its [[Florian Republic|Florian]] allies during the [[Verionian-Raspur War]], and finally the attempt to instigate a procedural coup against the Prince of Elwynn.
 
* The dismissal of the Congressional Government and the dissolution of Congress was characterised by Ayreonist sources as an Nationalist-Humanist coup. However, for the most part, the perception, shaped by a sympathetic media, has been that the [[Court of the Prince]], supported by the [[Court of Star Chamber]], sought the removal from power of a weak minority executive that had instead embarked upon a senseless policy of antagonising and subverting Elwynn's government and alliances in an effort to curry favour with its enemies and disgraced exiles.
* The war
 
* Nationalist-Humanist coup.
