I'll shed a little light on the full history of Amer Kurtovic and the Flowers.
I'll start with the alliance itself.
The formerly-Flowers-aligned nation of Creperum ( http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=387356 ) attacked a nation of Rome. Rome took a diplomatic approach and peace was declared, then the talks of reparations began. It was a modest request: Just one million dollars, or we fight back. Creperum chose to fight. As such, the entire then-five-nation alliance retaliated against Rome, and for a day or two they were digging into our smaller nations. Rome regrouped and pushed them back, and now things have kind of grinded to a halt.
Now let's talk about Amer Kurtovic.
Amer was one of the first nations to join Rome. He became a Centurion, a military general in Rome. But this power would be short-lived, as he continuously disregarded orders given by Praetor Richard and Consul Magnetar. When he tried to declare war on a harmless alliance (Alliance Name: Alliance Affiliation, with a total member count of two), he was stripped of this title.
That was when a shift in power was claimed, and Amer immediately applied to run for Senator. His main opponent was me, to whom he revealed quite a few of his plans. He is quoted as saying he will "say whatever must be said to get what (he) wants."
Days before the election, his nation was forced out of Rome. When he reformed his nation, he was given a time limit to announce his alliance with Rome in order to keep his name in the election. He blatantly decided he didn't want to follow that limit, and as such had to reapply. However, when he reapplied, he was ghosting as a member of another alliance, which when combined with his Rome history was enough to deny him readmission.
At that point, he declared war on a Roman nation. He ghosted back and forth between a few popular alliances (Mushroom Kingdom, Sparta, RnR) until today, when he declared that he was the new leader of The Flowers.
That should bring everyone up to speed.
