	If you cannot play for a certain period of time (2 weeks or more) send an email to the game's referee. The referee may preserve your nation, but for the sake of the other players it will be played "on cruise control" as entering a period of isolation and stagnation. These kind of nations cannot be attacked before a AFK’s players consent (by email or chat). In that case, during a war the ref will roll for that nations fleet recruitment and war. A player may declare another allied player to be their proxy, if it is preferred.		If you cannot play for a certain period of time (2 weeks or more) send an email to the game's referee.

	If a player is inactive for a long time (absent from ~~three~~ weekly sessions) without warning as mentioned above, the referee will likely describe the collapse and fracturing of that nation. All systems that were in that nation's area of control are now independent and may be targeted by Colonization actions, easily annexed into other nations. The collapsed nation's territory will no longer be marked with their colour.
