2022 NAPG Takeover

The 2022 NAPG Takeover was an event in which the recently formed North Atlantic Provisional Government (NAPG) took over all power and control of all NATO member-states. It was deemed by many as a military coup d'état.

In the takeover, the NAPG, which had been formed on January 6th 2021 as a way of ruling all provisional governments in temporarily annexed regions through a central government. The NAPG was led by the Provisional Government Council (PGC), which consisted of a military part, NASAC Herman Dijk, NASAD James C.T. Wade, three Senior Commanders and a political/civilian part, which consisted of 5 ambassadors. This ten-headed council also had direct access to all military force through the military part and in that way had the potential for absolute power.

When in 2022 the war was nearing a stalemate, the PGC assumed full power on February 10th 2022 to push through some political reforms that they deemed necessary for winning the war. This policy seemed effective, as after the takeover the North Atlantic forces could finally push through and slowly gain ground in the five years that followed.

After the takeover, which lasted for almost the entire year, the PGC renamed itself to the Allied Political Committee (APC) on December 4th 2022, but many called it the "Politburo" or the "Junta". The APC fired two ambassodors, replaced two others (one was replaced by incumbent President of the United States Hillary Clinton, which was offered the position after her forced resignation) and hired two additional Senior Commanders. Its makeup did not change from that point.
