Havenian scientists managed to only save 700 000 people. Most havenians are immunized to this virus because Havenians discovered a cure years ago so archaeologists secretly working on irlandian soil were spared. They found ruins that legally allowed the government of Haven to claim the whole territory (or the fact the whole government of Irlandia died from the plague). The Holy City was once again connected to the ground for the first time in almost 600 years.

Her Majesty the Queen offered amnesty to every Irlandian wishing to stay in Haven and give up their weapons and claim on the Holy Land. More than 400 000 irlandians accepted this deal and received government support to rebuilt their houses, schools and hospitals. More than 300 000 Irlandians chose to leave the country.
