Events are alerts and dilemmas that spontaneously occur, presenting various forms depending on the prevailing situation within a nation. While many events are entirely randomized, some dilemmas may arise after meeting specific criteria. These dilemmas span various categories, such as military, government, technology, economy, and more. Each event has its own impact on a country's affairs, potentially triggering a chain of additional events or initiating unique national modifiers based on the decisions made in response.

Trivia[]
- The concept of events was was first revealed by Hyperant on October 22, 2020 in the Official Discord and eventually released on the 12/22/2020 Major Update (December 22, 2020).
- Prior to the Corruption Update (November 18, 2023), all events listed in 'Corruption' table were able to introduce a former national modifier, known as "Rampant Corruption", by a random number generator. After the Corruption Update, the events instead have a fixed rate of boosting corruption gain and the national modifier was removed.
- The 'Striker Make Demands' event is less likely to occur with high stability (roughly over +65%) compared to its higher chance of appearing when stability is less than 50%.
