If in the case that you would like to resign from playing the game, there are a few options available to you. You can either leave your account untouched at which after 14 days (ie 2 weeks) your account will automatically be deleted. Or alternatively within the "Preferences" menu in the game, you are able to manually delete your realm (also called Abdicating your realm). The players within your empire will be informed of your decision to leave and your realm will be flagged for deletion.

NOTE : There is a 3 day grace period from the time your realm is flagged for deletion and when it is actually deleted. Realms flagged for deletion are known as "Abandoned Realms" and will still show up in your "Empire Overview" screen but will be a dull colour showing no land, network or valor. After 3 days the realm is removed and deleted from the database. There is no way to recover your realm once this action has been performed.




Your account can be deleted from the in-game preferences menu
Realms are unable to have 0 land or less. Upon reaching 0 land will result in your realm being permanently deleted
Abandoned Realms will be automatically deleted after 3 days. Until they are removed they cannot be the target of spells/operations or attacks
