	The reform was only a temporally success. Faced with inactivity on the forum, the lack of communication and the disappearing of several micronations the AMU was confronted again with a crisis in 2013. Niels of Flandrensis (co-founder of the AMU) took the initiative for another reform, supported by the remaining active members. On August 21, 2013 all inactive members were removed from the organization, the forum was removed and replaced by the official Facebook page and the organization simplified its administration.

			In late 2019, several former members of the AMU began discussing the possibility of returning the organization to active status. Westarctica was represented in these talks by [[Grand Duke Travis]] and [[Prime Minister of Westarctica\|Prime Minister]] [[Duke of the Bear Peninsula\|Farmer]]. After several weeks of deliberations and negotiations, the core members of the AMU agreed to terms that would allow them to once again work together to promote peace and security on the continent of [[Antarctica]], albeit as a more informal body. This led to the AMU resuming operations on 24 February of that year.
