Magneto’s Mutant Kingdom
The tenuous peace from Genosha’s human leadership, however, didn’t last. A mutate uprising sparked by the machinations of the former Acolyte Fabian Cortez saw the Genoshan government slaughtered, plunging Genosha into an all out civil war—one only quelled by Magento and his remaining Acolytes, after the UN ceded Genosha to Magneto’s demand for a mutant state. Magneto’s rule saw Genosha’s human population ousted and resistance eventually quelled—but the now-mutant lead haven was ravaged by the outbreak of the Legacy Virus, becoming a quarantine for thousands of infected mutants.
The cure for the Legacy Virus, however, created further complications—Magneto, now vengefully equipped with an army of healthy soldiers for his cause, whipped Genosha’s mutant population up into plans for a global assault on humankind, leading to him being mortally wounded in an encounter with the X-Men to end his plans for domination.
