The '''Republic of Discord''' ('''ROD''' or '''RoD'''), commonly known as "'''the Republic'''" or as "'''Discordia'''," was a mock government based on Discord and consisting of between three and five states, one federal district, and several incorporated territories at various points in its history. It was one of the largest mock governments on discord by member size (2,300), but suffered from a long period of decline both in member count and in activity over the last several years of its existence as a result of internal conflict, lack of competent and dedicated administration, a series of incompetent and weak governments, poor reputation among the community as a result of previous aggression, and emigration to other mock governments as a result of the aforementioned factors. ▼

▲The '''Republic of Discord''' ('''ROD''' or '''RoD'''), commonly known as "'''the Republic'''" or as "'''Discordia'''," was a mock government based on Discord
At its peak, the Republic of Discord was considered an incredibly influential mock government, first as the "mainline" or "hegemonic" mock government in its section of the community during 2019's [[Pax Discordia]], and then once again as one of many servers in the multi-polar reality of 2020-2021 (also see [[New Discordia (Politics)|New Discordia]]), alongside servers like the [[Soviet Union (Leonite)|Soviet Union]], [[the Authority]], and raiding groups like the [[Fourth Brigade]]. The decline of the Republic of Discord coincided with, but was not caused by, the end of the Authority and the decline in relevance of raider groups as well as the Soviet Unions' retreat into isolation in a extended period of stagnation within the Mock Government Community.
The national capital of the Republic of Discord was the city of New Discordia, and its three core states were [[Doulant (Discordian State)|Doulant]], [[Balion]], and [[Avalon]]. Additionally, [[Calluris]] was a incorporated territory of the Republic. The nation ended in its Seventeenth Republic (iteration), with other notable iterations being the [[First Republic of Discord|First]], [[Third Republic of Discord|Third]], [[Fourth Republic of Discord|Fourth]], [[Fifth Republic of Discord|Fifth]], [[Seventh Republic of Discord|Seventh]], [[Twelfth Republic of Discord|Twelfth]], and [[Fifteenth Republic of Discord|Fifteenth]] Republics.

Several other extant mock governments have their origins in the Republic of Discord, including [[Krameria]], [[People's Republic of Doulant|Doulant (People's Republic of)]], [[Calluris]], and a wide variety of smaller mock governments. In turn, the Republic of Discord traced many of its origins back to servers like [[We The People (Mock Government)|WTP]] and the [[Amullia|Amullian Empire]].
The Republic of Discord, formed in 2018, was finally dissolved with Antares' Farewell Address, released on the 17th of January, 2024. Reasons cited for the dissolution included the loss of interest and activity, the effective dissipation of the active user base, and the consistent failure of ROD Administrators to revive the server despite their undermining of the democratic processes. The speech was generally well recieved by former ROD citizens and the community at large, although many in the community celebrated the downfall of the Republic. The final ''de jure'' owners of the Republic of Discord were [[Ultra]] and [[Romulus]], who succeeded to the Ownership following the resignation of individuals such as [[Big Blake]] and [[SunGlisten]]. The final President of the Republic of Discord was [[WatermelonNop]]. He was the eighth President of the final Republic of Discord. ▼
The Republic was known for its rich historical tradition, being one of the first mock governments to establish institutions for the documentation and preservation of history. The [[Mockgovernments.com|Mock Governments Wiki]] in its current form can trace its roots back to historical institutions formed within the Republic of Discord. ▼
