When a faction hits zero respect, they will be permanently destroyed. The faction will not be fully deleted, but it will enter an irrecoverable death state - this means the faction cannot be accessed, but its name and profile will be retained forever.
Upon destruction, all members of the faction will be removed and any inventory which isn't loaned out will be moved to the leader including money and points.
There is no way to recover once a faction reaches 0 respect.
Loaned items after destruction will belong to those who were loaning them.
All items, money and points in the faction will go to the current leader.
When a faction is destroyed, their profile will remain, showing its name, image and previous leaders.
Raiding:
During a raid, attacks will cause 100% damage rather than 25%, but produce no respect, only destruction.
There is no way to end a raid without the faction in the lead ceasing it or the other faction's destruction.
The faction with the lowest raid score can surrender. This will not end the raid unless the other faction accepts and ceases it.
After ceasing a raid, the two factions cannot raid each other again for 90 days.
Full stats and graphs are available after completing a raid within the raid report, like in territory warring.
A faction cannot have an existing chain before starting a raid, it will be forced into a cooldown state. Chains can be used to their fullest extent after the raid has started. Patch list #76 : 08/01/19 Released Raiding.

The balances can be adjusted to any value by the leader or co-leader, this only changes the balance of the user and has no other effect.

Factions:
Level: higher levelled targets will provide more respect than lower levelled ones.
Stat difference: The similarity in stats between you and the target (fair fights) can yield a bonus of up to x3.
Retaliation: If you attack someone who's just defeated one of your faction members, a bonus of x1.5 is applied.
Overseas: Attacking a target while you're overseas will provide a bonus of x1.25.
Group attack: A depreciating bonus of x1.25 will be applied for each additional friendly attacker.
War attacks: Any war-related attack (such as removing a target during a territorial war) will yield a x2 bonus.
