Satmar Union

The Satmar Union is a fast-growing democratic trading state located in Hungary. A strong military state formation located in the former Szatmár County and featured in the Dark Future: Dark Folktales, and one of the protagonist factions of the trilogy.
== History ==
=== Post-Garai ===
After the fall of the Garai Block in 2062, renegade military formations led by Major Zoltan Tildy occupied the area and ensured order. The famine was lower than in the southern areas, as the fertile soil irrigated with large amounts of water from the Tisza provided enough food for the population to survive the famine.
The Major restored the local government of the district, waiting for the situation in Debrecen to stabilize. In the autumn of 2062, the Anarcho-syndicalist troops occupying Vásárosnamény began to attack the units of Fehérgyarmat in order to extend their revolution and to obtain food, but they were defeated in the brutal battle at the Olcsva crossing.
It took place in 2063 during the Ruthenian Crisis, when the Svoboda Movement began besieging the Tarpa Vineyard, and the reorganizing Polish, NATO units, with the help of the Satu Mare forces, crushed their troops, thus winning the war.
After 2065, the leadership of Fehérgyarmat realized that the situation in Debrecen would not stabilize and that the former unified area was finally torn to pieces. Major Tildy and his leadership administration set up the Fehérgyarmat Council and soon began launching and expanding their newly planned trade relationship, then establishing their new state, the Union of Satu Mare. Tildy then declared himself independent of both the military leadership in Nyíregyháza and the democratic leadership in Debrecen. The newly formed White Colony Council was first formed by soldiers and then slowly restored power to the civilian forces as peace was restored. By 2073, Major Tildy’s power had been pushed back into military leadership, while a peaceful civilian takeover resulted in a stable government.
== Structure ==
The Council meets in Fehérgyarmat, in the redesigned lecture hall of the mayor's office. It is mainly made up of representatives of the business class promoting Capitalism and the merchant families, but unifying civic and peasant movements are also a significant force.
== Politics & Defense ==
The Satmar Union pursues a Capitalist economic policy, maintaining reciprocal trade with most of its neighbors. There is a mutual defense alliance with the Fourth Hungarian Republic due to the Nyírszalka Empire. They are hostile to the People’s Republic, but there is currently a ceasefire between the two factions. They set up a puppet state, the Free State of Satu Mare.
