The representatives were mainly divided into two groups: The Republicans, which were made up of mainly [[Dixe|Southern Americans]], supported continuing the California Republic, while the Royalists, which were mainly made up of [[Columbia|Northern Americans]], supported creating a monarchy and abolishing the Republic. | ||
On August 4th, 1842, the constitutional convention narrowly passed the Royalist Constitution of Pacífica, establishing a federal constitutional monarchy and renaming the country to Pacífica. Many radical republicans left Pacífica, while more moderate republicans stayed to peacefully oppose the monarchy. On September 22nd, [[Dayton I of Pacífica|Dayton Branver]] accepted the constitutional convention's offer to the throne and was crowned King Dayton I on September 30th. | |||
