The dream SMP lore (from the start)

L'Manberg Election Era

The L'Manbergian Election was an era of campaigning, mainly between SWAG2020 and POG2020, for the presidency of L'Manberg. SWAG2020 is After L'Manberg won its independence from the Dream SMP, Wilbur soot established the country's government as an autocratic regime with himself as the nation's president and Tommyinnit as vice president. Over time, however, it became clear that the citizens of L'Manberg weren't taking Wilbur's orders as president seriously. Wilbur sought to fix this issue by legitimizing his claim to power through an election and planned to host a one-party election where L'Manbergian citizens would have to vote for his and Tommy's party. However, Quackity, a L'Manberg outsider, formed an opposing party with George as his running mate. Since L'Manberg's government remained autocratic, the election was crucial in deciding the direction the country would take in the future. On September 8, 2020, the two parties POG2020 and SWAG2020 hosted a presidential and vice-presidential debate in the sky courthouse, with Tubbo and Karl presiding over the debate. The two parties argued over policies crucial to L'Manberg, including allowing other citizens into L'Manberg, solving conflict within the nation and with the Greater Dream SMP, and corruption within the government. The debate quickly broke down after bribery allegations, yelling, and killing within the courthouse. On September 20, 2020, a rally and debate took place at the L'Manberg podium Wilbur, Tommy, and Quackity took turns giving speeches and answering questions from people who had assembled to listen. George did not show up to the debate, causing Quackity to panic.
Before POG2020 or SWAG2020 spoke, Fundy and Niki took the stage to announce the campaign of Coconut2020, which became very popular with the audience. When asked to present their endorsements, however, Fundy and Niki logged off.
SWAG2020 then took the stage. Quackity brought forward KSI as an endorsement, although this was never confirmed. POG2020 took the stage. Tommy brought forward an endorsement from Vikkstar, who had created a video called "Endorsement" that was played on stream. Wilbur then brought forward the party's second endorsement, Jschlatt. This surprised the viewers, as Schlatt had previously been banned from the server .Schlatt, who acted as a senile old man, immediately derailed the endorsement. He denounced the democratic process, insulted the POG2020 and SWAG2020 parties, and endorsed Coconut2020 before withdrawing his endorsement and creating his own party, SCHLATT2020. Dream immediately endorsed him .After his endorsement, Dream helped Schlatt chase down and kill Quackity, Wilbur, and Tommy. While running from their pursuers through underground tunnels, Wilbur proposed a compromise with Quackity and asked if he wanted to combine their two parties into SWOG2020. Quackity considered this proposal but denied it because it was conditional and did not guarantee a position of power. He then created a coalition party between SWAG2020 and SCHLATT2020, called SchWAG2020. Wilbur and Tommy accepted defeat after being killed by Schlatt, Quackity, and Dream, logging out. Wilbur then read the declaration of independence to Tommy. At the very end of the night, CallMeCarson endorsed SWAG2020.The election was originally started by Wilbur and Tommy to consolidate power, but Quackity and George entered the race. Late in the election, two third parties also joined the race for presidency.
