A similar event happens in Austria, as the president, Silent Bob, cedes Upper Austria, Tyrol and Salzburg to Italy.

"Empress Day"

On the night of April 13, 2009, a group of Congress and non-congress member of Japan decided to have a joke on Japan and HIZUMI, as the emperor talk was becoming absurd and foolish. Since many people did not have very happy thought about new formation of HIZUMI's fictional empire, which had no connection with actual government of eJapan, a little joke were planned out in the small group in the eJapan IRC to appoint someone HIZUMI disagreed with the most, for the emperor/empress position of Japan for 24 hours just for the joke. It was originally planned for a small confusion for a little laugh, but with some other major event and paranoia added with HIZUMI's action to try to gain the International attention, not only did it evolve it into crisis, but confusing day filled with conflict, drama, and rash decisions. Of course this event was just trial for the actual Emperor/empress situation, it turned out worser than most had envisioned and lead to eventual chaos.
