Line 59:
Many of those involved were disappointed in the lack of participation from the KOG. In order to prevent boredom and frustration over such a highly anticipated battle, Admin EmprZedd began spawning Giants for the attackers to fight off while they seized the city. The force sustained numerous casualties during this fight, including several friendly-fire incidents, but ultimately succeeded in defeating the Giants.

Public reaction to the battle was mixed. Many Alathran citizens took pride in participating in the battle and defeating the Kingdom of God. However, many were disappointed to how the battle turned out. While many people had logged in to fight, most of them did not stay to see the siege through. Pope Mistapurple and the Kingdom of God were widely seen as cowards for refusing to fight, but some citizens sympathized with the small nation. The abandonment of Vatican City could be seen as an act of nonviolent protest against the imperialism of Ashina. However, public opinion still remained strongly with the Ashina Empire.
Once the Vatican was claimed by Ashina, it was placed under occupation. Members of the city fled, with Jupiterdude relocating to [[Synbio]] to found the town of Final Rest. The Kingdom of God became Ashina's second largest occupied territory, after Aquendavia.
 
The Siege also marked the FCA's first military involvement and entrance to the wider stage of Alathran politics. From that point on, the FCA played a major role in the Northern Continent, helping to resolve the Rome-Redwood Dispute.
 
In addition, the sheer scale of the Siege prompted Mayor Crowe of Braudwell to propose the creation of a new international organization, the Alathran Union of Township Peace (AUTP) as a trade organization that would theoretically promote peace, though it soon collapsed after a disastrous first press conference.
