 The lack of participation in the formative referendum would be a frequent point of attack by the federation's rival claimants in the still-raging civil war. After hostilities ceased, terms of the cease-fire specified new congresses were to be elected for each region of the old republic. These in turn sent delegates to a one-time constitutional congress and ratified the Rovlin Consitution for a second time. With this mandate the federation declared the unification of the republics and an official end to the civil war. It also took on the mantle of the Federation of the Republics of Agathos, the Federation of Agathos, and //the// Republic of Agathos. The lack of participation in the formative referendum would be a frequent point of attack by the federation's rival claimants in the still-raging civil war.
