Vaushist State

The Vaushist State was the provisional unrecognized country under de-facto control by the Vaushist party in Eastern Europe. The party never proclaimed the Vaushist State to be a sovereign country, but rather a provisional organization or a government-in-exile who would give up all their power once a third Johanian Republic could be established. It was established after the party was exiled from the Johanian Republic due to rumors of a planned coup d'état. The party quickly seized control over Yekaterin, a city in Siberia, where their main base of operations would later be, acting as a capital for the quasi-state. Its largest city was New Solitude for the majority of the Vauhist State's existence until the annexation of Odessa some weeks before its dissolution. The Vaushist State's territories were under direct jurisdiction by the party, who acted as a military junta in various ways, lead by the party leader Vaush. 
The announcement of a third Johanian Republic lead to some of the former Johanian States to declare their allegiance to the Vaushist State and their military operation. Throughout the first quarter of 2021, the Vaushist State continued to be involved in armed conflicts in Eastern Europe and Western Asia against UN and local armies, in order to annex more territory. The UN condemned the Vaushist State, calling them "far-left extremists" and deployed UN-army units in the area. The greater conflict was later dubbed the UN war by historians.
Despite being met with numerous opposition, the Vaushist State managed to seize control of the former Johanian capital St. John on April 21 2021. Following the seige, an election was held with the goal of choosing the party responsible with founding the new country's basic infrastructure. The Myohanian Communist Party ended up winning, resulting in the proclamation of the Myjohanian Union, a decentralized Marxist-Myohanist federal republic. The Myjohanian Union and the Vaushist State aided the National Government of Ninjago in the Second Ninja-UN war, resulting in the UN's defeat in the greater UN war. The Vaushist State was formally dissolved after the war and transformed into the Johanian Autonomous Republic.
==Etymology==
The Vaushist State name was an exonym given to the state by supporters, sympathizers and also opponents such as the United Nations. The Vaushist Party, who did not recognize the dissolution of the second Johanian Republic considered themselves to be a special task force of the Johanian Republic; the Johanian Special Forces, which arguably resulted in the Vaushist State's "official" name being the Johanian Republic.
== Siege of St. John==

In late April 2021, the Vaushist State's army managed to seize control over the former capital city of St. John on Crimea and the nearby larger city Odessa. This was regarded as an important feat as the goal was to hold an election for the establishment of a new state in the former Johanian capital.
===Vaush's statements ===
After the siege of St. John, the party higher-ups held a press conference to the world, where they stated the next steps of their plan. Vaush announced that all territories who wished to join this new republic should send an official political candidate to St. John. Where elections were going to be held on May 1 2021. The special conditions for this election was that, whichever party won the most amount of votes, would be given the right to determine the future of this new state, its constitution, government and legal infrastructure.When asked as to why so much would be "put on the line", Vaush responded by saying; "I firmly believe in democracy, whoever wins this new election will be the rightful new visionaries for our new state. Because they will have been chosen by the people. We would be no different, than let's say, God Emperor Walece, if we just walked in here and proclaimed ourselves leaders without a vote. This election will be fair and secured, we will guarantee it."
===Gallus' statements===
The election announcement was followed by a brief press conference hosted by Gallus III. There, he announced that Emperor Kareastikuru was in fact still alive and that he was planning to retake control over his country. Gallus went on to elaborate that for reasons he could not currently disclose, the Vaushist State's government had kept the former emperor alive in Siberia throughout 2021. This came as a surprise to the world and to former Johanian politicians who had previously despised Gallus for allegedly unlawfully killing the Ninjagoan emperor. After that announcement, Gallus swore to "create a new international organization". Effectively declaring war on the UN and its supporters. Political researchers are perplexed and torn as to the possible reasons behind these actions. Ninjago-based news networks omitted the part were Gallus talked about Kareastikuru's life in Siberia per orders from Ninjagoan Prime Minister Jay Gordon.
====Reactions ====
Conspiracy Theorist Alex Jones reacted live to both Vaush's and Gallus' press conferences. After Gallus announced Kareastikuru's return, Jones went into an emotional rant where he exclaimed "You people have signed onto to complete satanic world-government takeover [..] Do you have any idea what you have released, you dumb bastards?"
Controversial philosopher and wanted criminal Gravis reacted positively to these news. In the VaushAgoist International news paper, Gravis published an article were he described this as "the most glorious new developments." He went on to explain that "[I] love both Johania and Ninjago, Glaus and Kareastikuru. We should all rejoice over their realization of who the common enemy is, the UN. The world was incredibly bland when they had so much control. The material conditions for the dolphin people's rise is coming closer, my comrades."
==May 1 2021 Elections==
On May 1 2021, the Vaushist State held their long awaited election. Following the siege of St. John, the Vaushist Party had called for former Johanian states to send their representatives to St. John if they pledge to become a part of the new country. In the wake of the UN war against the Vaushist State and Ninjago, this resulted in the spread of Anti-UNism, which lead to the Vaushist State being regarded as major champions against the UN. Therefore, more representatives than expected arrived in St. John in late April. The Formosan Republic, Myohania, Westcoastistan and northern Juliengrad had sent representatives to be candidates in the election. Each representative were members of a registered political party, who would form the new government and write the new constitution upon victory.
===Results===
The parties and their respective candidates in the election were the following:
*Myohanian Communist PartyLater renamed to the Marxist-Myohanist Party following the election. - Myohani
*Right-Libertarian Party - Gary Johnston
*Juliengrad Liberal Party - Jamal Black Sr.
*Odessa Social DemocratsPreviously known as the Johanian Socialist Party. - Clutch Powers
*Vaushist Party - Gallus
*Vaush Ninjagoist PartyOfficially called the Vaush Ninjagoist Party, however, they were registered under the old VNP's name; the Vaushist Ninjagoist Party. Commentators have speculated that this was due to a spelling error made by Neuro or Shade.Later turned into the Vaush Ninjagoist Party. - Jacob Pevsner
*Taipei National Democrats - Ing Tsai-wen
The Myohanian Communist Party ended up recieving almost 60% of the total amount of votes, resulting in its party leader Myohani and his party were given the task to write the new constitution and to lay out its framework. Since the election was setup by libertarian socialists, such as vaushists and anarchists as opposed to the more authoritarian Marxist-Myohanist victors, there were some severe tensions. This was resolved later by the Menshev Compromise, which guaranteed that the new country will contain two socialist states, united by a small federal government. The Menshev socialists were given the Johanian Autonomous Republic and the Marxist-Myohanists, the Myohanian Autonomous Republic. Due to the military conflicts with the UN, the new country, the Myjohanian Union was officially proclaimed just two days after the election. According to several sources, the political framework was unfinished at the time, however, by May 10 2021, the Myjohanian Central Council had been established as the main chamber of the federal government. Later on May 12 2021, the borders between the two autonomous republics were finalized.
