Uhh, vanimedle tried to take over. We stopped her 
Well that isn't what happened.
What happened was a very small group of nobles, hoarded all the gold, then bought out all the recruitment centres days in advance, and when they lost a series of referendums, threatened to rebel if they didn't get their own way, the government didn't accede to them, and they knew they couldn't win the rulers election, so in what was the middle of the night (In my timezone anyway, and BM's) they declared a rebellion.
There were more than double the amount of loyalists than rebels, and basically everyone is protesting the government, because it's just a power play by a small faction trying to use force to take the government.
Basically all the old government will be re-elected in the referendums, Wilhelm will be protested out of office, within a day, or he'll lose it in the election, all the current rebels will then be banned and it'll be business as usual in Arcachon afterwards.
