*{{flagiconstart|Flag of the Kingdom of Wegmat.svg}} [[Weg-New German War]] {{efn|In early 2020 the [[Empire of New Germany]] voted to secede from the [[Kingdom of Wegmat]] and on the second day of independence declared war on Wegmat.

*{{flagiconstart|Flag of the Commonwealth of Essexia.svg}} [[Shenistan-Essexian War]]{{efn|The "Democratic People's Republic of Shenistan" was established via the ''Shenfield Autonomy Act 2020'' on 13 March, which granted provincehood and a Provincial Council with devolved powers to the Essexian claim of Shenfield. [[Finn (Essexia)|Earl Finn]]'s proposed devolution of powers from the central Parliament of Essexia was highly unprecedented, and received both considerable commendation and criticism. The war is considered an Essexian Victory due to the actions of the rebels in conceding to the Commonwealth. However, as neither belligerents' armed forces were able to counter each other, the conflict is also seen as a military stalemate.}}
*{{flagiconstart|Misberia Flag.png}} [[Misberian Failed Coup of May 2020]]{{efn|On 23 May, [[Otto Gillespie Birch]] and the Misberian Directive Council held a trial in abstentia for [[James II, Aspen Emperor]] for his crimes against the government and Misberian nation. After the trial was concluded Jack Reach went to [[MicroWiki@Discord]] and noticed people were referring to Otto as Misberia in regards to the trial of James. Jack, outraged by this gathered the council and enacted a coup attempt to remove Otto from the government and nation. During this time the national funds of Misberia were being divided up amongst the council for personal gain and started formulating a plan for how to remove Otto and take power. A group of individuals spammed fhe Misberian National Snapchat with vulgar language and started going at Otto on the Misberian Discord server. Soon after the coup fell apart after Jane went to Otto's house and stood outside with a rock screaming at Otto. The lie that Misberia had dissolved was was notified to every Misberian Town. Following this failed coup, many micronations quickly came to Misberia's support and people started flooding in seeking citizenship. The #HelpMisberia was created on Twitter and Instagram to gain support and help Misberia with rebuilding.<ref name="misberiaone"/><ref name="HelpMisberia"/>}}
*{{flagiconstart|Flag of Almendria.png}} [[TOES-Almendria War]]{{efn|On the 30 June, members of TOES joined the Almendrian Discord server, after Tizian stating that TOES was a [[YAMO]].

**[[2019–2020 New Eiffelic Constitution Crisis]]{{efn| Marked the beginning of the Crisis in New Eiffel; the erstwhile Prince Zarel I accidentally erased the nation's constitution.

These powers granted the [[Austenasian Monarchy|Monarch]] unprecedented and near-absolute control over the executive and legislative functions of government, and were used to impose order and to implement parliamentary reform. The political crisis at the heart of this incident came to an end on 1 June 2020 with the resignation of [[Dionisiy I, Prince of Montescano|Prince Dionisiy I]] from the office of [[Prime Minister of Austenasia|Prime Minister]], who was succeeded by the incumbent [[Lord John Gordon]].<ref name="aus25may"/>}}

The scandal developed during the [[July 2020 Abeldane executive election]], where both the positions of [[Vorsitzender]] and [[Stellvertreter]] were up for election. According to Renwick, Freayth commited electoral fraud, especially in the state of [[Alenshka]], dating as far back as [[2017]]. These claims were backed by Emperor [[Nicholas Kaos]]. As a result of the scandal, the [[Liberty Front]] pulled out of the alliance, and the Pirate League was dissolved due to all of its members defecting the party; Concordia was therefore ''de facto'' dissolved on 10 July, less than a month after its official establishment.<ref name=lsydunche1/>}}

===Administration===
[[file:ICJA20.jpg|160px|thumb|Jonathan I of Austenasia remained the site owner for a sixth year]]
Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia remained the site owner of MicroWiki for his sixth year. Wiki admins who continued serving were Adam I, Emperor of Adammia and [[Ives Blackwood]], and tech admins who continued were [[Sebastian Linden]], [[Karl Friedrich|Luxor]] and [[Andrew Creed]]. In February, Cameron I, King of Ikonia was upgraded to a tech admin after serving as a wiki admin originally, and Charles Ross and Zed were both promoted to wiki admins in February. Joseph Kennedy was dismissed as a wiki admin in the same month, though was later reinstated in July.<ref name="staff" /> On MicroWiki@Discord, Luxor, Cameron I, Newton von Uberquie and Sebastian Linden remained administrators, whilst Brayden "Lee" Eaves, Casper von Naveria and Zed were promoted to the position. However, following a decision to cut back on the number of administrators, the majority of admins were demoted to moderators instead, making them alongside already moderators [[Aidan McGrath]] and [[Tomáš Falešník]]. Further moderators were appointed afterwards. Jonathan I, [[Aaron Green]], Adam I, [[Eryn Lewis]], [[Zenrax|Shiro]] and Suzuki Leōcor resigned as administrators.<ref name="discord" /><ref name="mwm" /><ref>[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZUK71MhXUaewOLpR20onU0Bk3KX3mcpJ0P8i-TwIIDI/edit MicroWiki@Discord | Information + Rules (June 24, 2020)].

MicroWiki grew to over twenty-thousand articles, one-hundred thousand pages, and ten-thousand registered users (mostly bots). The site received 2.8 million views in total and 1.8 million unique views.<ref>Editor, Chief (3 January 2021) [https://essexian.com/microwiki-statistics-from-2020-released-heres-what-they-revealed/ MicroWiki statistics from 2020 released – here’s what they revealed]. ''The Essexian Post''. Retrieved 4 January 2021.</ref> To combat the number of unproductive edits by bots, a moderation system was introduced which allows admins and patrollers to approve or reject edits made by newly registered accounts. A new good article (GA) system was also introduced, where every last week of each month, nominations which have been approved by an administrator either that month or the previous month will be voted on by the community. A monthly wiki newsletter was created, though was abandoned after just four months. Z Luna Skye (Zed) remained the most prolific editor, and was the first user to hit 30,000 edits on the site, which he achieved on 30 July, after becoming a wiki administrator earlier in February. Also in February, Niko3818 (Cameron) was upgraded to a tech admin after serving as a wiki admin originally, and MissEDconexion (Charles Ross) was also made a wiki admin. JosephKennedy2 (Joseph Kennedy) was dismissed as a wiki admin in February, though was later reinstated in July. 20 alt-accounts by the users OIMGov (Hasan Çakar) and Mahuset (Emiel Sebastiaan Hardy) were banned for vandalism in early January, causing a stir of drama in the community. There was also a largely unsuccessful attempt in revitalising the MicroWiki forums. 

Furthermore, for [[MicroWiki:April Fools'|2020 April Fools']]—an annual tradition on MicroWiki—the language of the entirety of MicroWiki was changed to an unreadable font called Precursor Alpha (hovering over text with a mouse would display it normally), and the MicroWiki logo in the corner was slightly titled sideways, for a wacky appearance.<ref>[https://micronations.wiki/images/0/0e/OO_2020_Micronational_April_Fool’s_Report.pdf 2020 Micronational April Fool’s Report].

===Slang===
Originating from the [[Reddit Sector]], the word "simmie" evolved as a derogatory term for micronations which incorporated [[simulationism|simulationist]] themes. In a May 2020 editoral for ''[[Messenger]]'', former [[Chair of the Grand Unified Micronational|GUM Chairman]] [[Henry Clémens]] presented a lengthy argument where he both defended the GUM and called for changes to be made within the organisation where he coined the term [[contraGUMism]]. The phrase caught popularity among GUM advocates and critics alike.<ref name="mes" /> Other terminology coined include "[[domain hack]]" and "[[New Year's Micronation]]" by Zed<ref>[https://dictionary.micronations.wiki/wiki/Domain_hack Domain Hack] on [[MicroWikiDictionary]]</ref> and "[[serial micronationalist]]" by [[Yaroslav Mar]].<ref>''See [[MicroWikiDictionary]]''</ref>

===Memes===
Memes focused primarily on MicroWiki@Discord, and were considered considerably less tasteful than the previous year;{{citation needed}} these included the 2019 Plastic Head Protests, [[Almendria]], [[Bobism]], [[Brian's Republic]], [[Pangapedia]], [[Zedposting]] and [[Zeeky Bomb]].{{citation needed}} Lesser memes included [[admin-nsfw|#admin-nsfw]], [[Addison Dillon vs New Almendria]], [[Carthia]] vs [[Wegmat]], [[Free Patrick Kent]], [[Nanonation]]s and "[[This ain't no cyber war, Logan|This ain't no cyberwar, Logan]]".{{citation needed}} On 1 September, [[Leon Montan]] began [[Face of Leon Montan|removing images of himself]] from the wiki citing it as "privacy reasons".
