Lech saw huge infrastructure projects after winning the bid to host the 2020 Summer Olympics. In Newport, a suburb west of the capital, the Weathersby Track was demolished, and three stadiums were built along with the headquarters of the IOC. The Games began on April 10, 2020 with the Opening Ceremony and the Closing Ceremony was held at White Star Stadium on April 22, 2020. Despite the masses of investment into Lech for the Olympics, only one of the three stadiums erected for the Games remains - Coder Arena.

A new figure unknown to the public was made when King Squid I abdicated the throne to King LordPainn I. Many questions were asked about the reasoning behind King Squid I's abdication, and choice for a successor. The King met with President Laff in Vindex Nation, where he promoted isolationist views and discussed foreign invaders. After the VIA refused to remove King LordPainn from the terrorist list, war was declared by Lech. The Lech forces held Seawall for a long period of time, until the Vindex forces began using guerilla warfare tactics, leading to a stalemate. The next attack was on Naval Base Coronado in San Amaro, where Lech proved victorious. This day is celebrated as Vengeance Day in Lech. Many acts of war were committed during this time, such as prisoners of war and endless skirmishes. King LordPainn committed suicide, and his successor King Weber I negociated peace with Vindex Nation, and began rebuilding the Lech Government.
