Good Evening Followers. For the past few years, the world is slowly being exposed to the existence of powered individuals. However, the most notable are the emergence of the team known as the Avengers. Led by World War 2 veteran Captain Steve Rodgers and billionaire Tony Stark, The Avengers have been responsible for the safe guarding of countless lives. Unfortunately, with those saved lives comes unavoidably obvious collateral damage. It has gotten to the point where the government feels it is time to hold "earth's mightiest heroes" accountable for their actions. We have been supplied with top secret government case files to better understand why the Avengers should or should not be governmentally regulated. Let's pick apart these cases and get a better understanding of the risk and rewards of having these "heroes" out and about.
After the events in New Mexico and the discovery of the power artifact known as the tesseract, the city of New York was invaded by the intergalactic species known as the Chitauri. With mortal resources exhausted, the team we know as the Avengers came in and heroically halted the invasion saving the lives of millions.

Despite the victorious battle, mass destruction and devastation to the city left some people grateful while others, mainly political figures, questioning the methods of these so called heroes.

Additionally, the mastermind behind the attack, Loki of Asgard, was said to stand trial for his crimes but was instead taken into custody by his brother and Avenger member Thor. His current whereabouts are still unknown.
Two years after New York, the world witnessed one of the most shocking government leaks since Watergate, The organization that originally monitored the Avengers' activities, SHIELD, was revealed to be under the control of the nazi terrorist organization HYDRA. Years of inner corruption and assassinations of potential whistleblowers kept the secret hidden until the plot was revealed and resulted in a violent confrontation at SHIELD HQ in Washington DC.

When the dust settled, the program known as Project INSIGHT was aborted, HYDRA leader Alexander Pierce was assassinated and HYDRA sleeper agents fled into the shadows looking to regroup. As a result, SHIELD was dismantled and the Avengers were left without an authoritative figure to report to.
After the SHIELD collapse, a more destructive event occurred near the African coast. For reasons unknown, Bruce Banner, aka Hulk, went on a terrifying and destructive rampage in the South African metropolitan area. Tony Stark stepped in to calm the beast down but the end result caused massive panic and destruction across the city.

Reports suggest that Banner is now being sought after by the African government to be held accountable for the incident but his whereabouts are currently unknown.
What is said to be the cherry on top of the Accords is the destruction of the city of Sokovia. Carried out by Ultron, the Avengers attempted to stop the AI from enacting his plan to destroy the planet. In the early stages of the battle, Ultron did the unthinkable which sent shock waves across the world.

Despite the chaos around them, the Avengers held firm and were able to hold off Ultron's forces. After evacuating the city, Ultron sent the city toward the surface and the end result sealed the fate of the Avengers' current public opinion and solidified the making of the accords.
Destruction of the City
Wide spread anger and destruction left citizens and political officials angry as well as eager for solutions to the problem. Thus began the construction of the current regulation for the heroes who caused such a global uproar.
With the country still shaken after the attack on Sokovia, the current situation came to a head just earlier this afternoon with an attack in Logos, Nigeria. WHIH reporters Christine Everhart and Will Adams commented on the situation in a Breaking News update.
Word has it that the government is taking action as we speak to issue the accords to the Avengers and that Gen. Thaddeus Ross is en route to the Upstate New York Avengers Facility to do so. When more information becomes available, we will let you in on it. Thank you for reading our special post on the Accords and have a great day.
