Republic of Acorn

The Republic of Acorn is the largest ruling government of the free Mobians of Mobius, previously known as the Kingdom of Acorn. The Kingdom became a republic when Acorn Kingdom Army General Amadeus Prower launched a revolution demanding political change, which resulted in power being shared between the people and the House of Acorn, creating a republic. The people are represented by the elected members of the Acorn Council, and its seat of power is in New Mobotropolis. The Republic of Acorn is currently at war with the Eggman Empire.

Foundations Through Civil War
Following the Destruction of Knothole at the hands of the Eggman Empire, Amadeus and Rosemary Prower become disappointed in the Kingdom of Acorn when they see how it has compared in the war against Dr. Eggman to the Knothole Freedom Fighters. Deciding it to be time for political change, they begin conspiring to start a revolution to have King Elias dethroned and institute a democracy.

They gain several followers and start a civil war between the revolutionists and the Mobians who remained loyal to the Acorns. However, these acts also resulted in Amadeus Prower being incarcerated. When Elias confronts Amadeus about this, Amadeus simply berates Elias for failing to live up to the freedom fighters in the war against Eggman, causing Elias' old doubts about his ability to rule over his people to resurface. Later that day, Elias' father, King Max, states to his son that the House of Acorn has ruled long ago, and is intended to stay that way.

That night, Rosemary and Tails break Amadeus out of prison. Amadeus and Rosemary then decide to head to the castle to confront Elias for the fate of the kingdom. At the castle, they demand that Elias step down as king and meet their demands. Elias however, refuses to do so, leading them to duel. After a lengthy battle, Sally Acorn steps in and stops the fight, reprimanding them both for starting a civil war. Realizing Sally was right, Amadeus and Elias make up and stop the war. From there, they decide to draw up the plans for a new form of government for the people of New Mobotropolis, which eventually became the Council of Acorn, with Elias leading six elected people to help him on deciding how to rule the kingdom.
