Cananach quickly claimed leadership of the National Republicans with his loyalists in tow, with the Free Faneria press supporting him in its publications as he fled to nearby Teindún, Faneria's largest city and a hub of Republican activity. Rousing the citizenry with a call to arms, Cananach spun the events at Oirthidún as a calculated purge by the Royalists, a position he maintained he truly believed for the rest of his life. Enraged, the locals fought off the pursuing contingent of Throneswatch and declared the city a safe haven for Republicans. | Cananach quickly claimed leadership of the National Republicans with his loyalists in tow, with the Free Faneria press supporting him in its publications as he fled to nearby Teindún, Faneria's largest city and a hub of Republican activity.

'' | The new ''Rih'', Wynnys-Màrtainn, surrendered himself and his relative, General Jonah Lohr-Màrtainn, along with the majority of the Royal 6th Army to the Republicans, turning the civil conflict into a proper revolution as Republican forces began to secure the western and central Ninerivers. With the military situation in hand, Cananach focused on the politics of the revolution more than its military functioning. | ||
Cananach spent his time during the bulk of the Civil War setting up his own government, replacing institutions from scratch on paper and using his rubber stamp Senate remnants to approve any changes and reforms he wished. after the fall of Rihsport to the National Republicans in May 1907, he felt he could effectively do as he pleased, as republican militias and revolutionaries increasingly became better-equipped and just as experienced as the standing army that had split between the two factions. With Faneria's geographic core secured, Cananach called for and succeeded in a vote to dispand the Vicarial system entirely and replace is with a system of elected Governors without aristocratic trappings, as well as formally disbanding the Senate and creating a new legislature. It was no mistake that the new legislature and positions of power were packed with his closest followers first, allies second, and his enemies left excluded entirely. | Cananach spent his time during the bulk of the Civil War setting up his own government, replacing institutions from scratch on paper and using his rubber stamp Senate remnants to approve any changes and reforms he wished. after the fall of Rihsport to the National Republicans in May 1907, he felt he could effectively do as he pleased, as republican militias and revolutionaries increasingly became better-equipped and just as experienced as the standing army that had split between the two factions.

Itheachan and Srathlann fell to the NRPA in March 1907, and Gleathan was captured by late May, securing the Republic as the legitimate Fhainnin government. The Socialists made considerable gains during this period, and saw success fighting Royalist forces, but were unprepared to themselves be purged from the Senate and the revolutionary movement, with many of their supporters peeling away to join the Republicans or breaking down into infighting over leadership. Their temporary alliance with the Republicans had allowed Cananach's men to gain an awareness of their operations, making rooting out their cells a matter of tipping off local anticommunist veterans' organizations. In addition, some elements within the Republicans themselves were cast out, though not violently as the Socialists were. | |||
