Braznichiya

The Peoples Socialist Democratic Republic of Braznichiya, or simply Braznichiya, was a small growing nation on Rathnir formed by Ballistic3iscuit and Kushka. It was one of few ideologically socialist nations on the server. 
== History ==
=== Pre-Establishment History ===
The land that makes up modern Braznichiya had previously been sparsely populated, with only a slight military presence from the United Burgamerian Socialist Republic and occasional "squatter" bases. A few people, namely the nation's founders Ballistic3iscuit and Kushka found the hardline communist ideology of the UBSR to be overly extremist and unsatisfactory in addition to feeling that they were marginalized because of their more centrally aligned views. This resulted in them purchasing a small island claimed by the UBSR from their government with the intention of setting up the People's Socialist Democratic Republic of Braznichiya.
=== Post-Establishment History ===
Nicknamed the "Red Jewel of the East", Braznichiya swiftly grew a small active populace not long after its founding. Braznichiya additionally joined the United Rathnir Social Alliance (URSA) in addition to the Council of Sparwood Nations (CSN) soon after it's founding.
=== Brauhaven ===
Brauhaven is a town on the North end of the PSDRB. It was discovered by Supreme Leader Ballistic3iscuit as a squatter settlement and was invited by him to join the nation. After a few days of deliberation, the leader of the small town, GunHands, and his second in command, Og_Craft, decided to join the PSDRB.
=== Brauhaven Dispute ===
The Brauhaven Dispute was between the PSDRB and the UBSR. It occurred when Brauhaven joined the PSDRB and it was thought that Brauhaven was in UBSR territory. The UBSR, which at this point was still under Viodoxa, demanded the squatter settlement to be returned to them. Reluctantly, the PSDRB, relented and gave up control of the city, despite GunHands, the leader of the town, expressing their desire to join the PSDRB and not the UBSR. A few hours later, it was discovered that Brauhaven was in PSDRB territory the whole time, and that the UBSR never needed to get involved,in the first place.
=== Great Schism ===
The Great Schism was a coup that occurred between the two Supreme Leaders and several government officials, including the Head of Senate, calling themselves the Revolutionaries. When the coup was announced by the Revolutionaries, asking for the Supreme Leaders to peacefully step down, the Supreme Leaders immediately made the decision to join Frosmyre as a protectorate nation. There was a vote held between the Supreme Leaders and the Head of Senate to join Frosmyre, and the vote passed with both the Supreme Leaders voting for the motion and the Head of Senate voting against it. Many citizens were confused by the sudden decision to join Frosmyre without a vote or even an announcement before the decision was made. 
There was a significant amount of confusion throughout the whole event. At first, Supreme Leader Ballistic3iscuit thought that the UBSR, and therefore Viodoxa, was behind the coup. After receiving word that this was, in fact, not true, Supreme Leader Ballistic3iscuit came to the conclusion that the Revolutionaries, after removing him and Supreme Leader Kushka from power, would attack the UBSR in a nearly impossible battle. This prompted him to have the Frosmyre military step in, which caused even more confusion and panic. Many citizens thought Frosmyre was taking over Braznichiya. 
It was discovered that while there were two main forces at play (the Supreme Leaders and Frosmyrian officials vs. the Revolutionaries), there was also a third, smaller, largely unknown force, or party. This was the second in command of Brauhaven, Og_Craft, acting as a spy for a UBSR official, Platitron, unbenounced to higher-up officials in the UBSR, as well as Vidoxa. It was later discovered in the First Sparwood Summit that Platitron believed the PSDRB, specifically the Revolutionaries, would attack the UBSR which is the same conclusion Ballistic3iscuit had come to before. He had reason to believe this because the Revolutionaries, (incorrectly) believing Og_Craft to be against the UBSR and therefore Vidoxa, had attempted to persuaded him to join their cause by stating that they would attack the UBSR when, in fact, they never had this intention to begin with. This was the same reason Supreme Leader Ballistic3iscuit thought the Revolutionaries, would attack the UBSR. Og_Craft went along and joined without revealing he was a spy for Platitron. 
It was later found out from the Revolutionaries, that they only insinuated the idea of declaring war on UBSR to attract allies that they planned on betraying. This misunderstanding caused a constant annoyance for remaining members of the Revolution after it was resolved. 
After things had calmed down, Supreme Leader Ballistic3iscuit, top Frosmyrian officials, including Molotov, Mr. Fister, and Kaleb (the Heir to the Archduke and the de facto leader), and most of the members of the Revolutionaries, talked out the situation and surprisingly came to an understanding of one another as well as agreements that would help strengthen the PSDRB's political integrity and stability. 
In the end, Braznichiya was annexed by Frosmyre, and the Revolutionaries were allowed to create their own nation in northern Frosmyre, which would eventually evolve into Novareach. 
=== Frosterium Period ===
After the annexation, Braznichiya became an autonomous state in Frosmyre, which would later become the Frosterium. This was the period in which RandomSageless joined, but apart from that nothing of major importance happened.
After the Frosterium dissolved, Braznichiya annexed a considerable chunk of federal land, at the price of 500.000.
=== Riedgrad ===
Riedgrad was founded by RoboticAuthor17 and Errorpanda initially as a place to hide the stolen Braznichiyan Treasury during the Bloodless revolution. Though it was never meant to be permanent. This changed during the Great Collapse of Braznichiya when the entire Claimed section of Braz City (Half the country at the time) was effectively closed off from the rest of the country. Thus forcing the two remaining Braznichiyans to turn Riedgrad into a Fortress, due to not having anything to do. Eventually this town would become the main military Center of Braznichiya. 
=== Annexation into Ecclesia ===
The land which Braznichiya annexed after the dissolution of the Frosterium (and to an extent all of Braznichiya) was of great interest to many powers of the world, including Ecclesia and Escharia. Not long after its independence, Braznichiya was at war with Escharia (due to a crusade for Jamestown) and with Ecclesia (who wanted to completely annex Braznichiya). This caused the government to enter a state of panic, and without much time to think, Ballistic3scuit and RoboticAuthor17 made the decision to annex Braznichiya into Ecclesia as a self-governing region. Only the main 3 towns were annexed into Ecclesia, the Escharians took the rest to form a puppet state called the Kingdom of Chance.
=== Dissolution ===
Even though Braznichiya was still mostly independent, it became inactive, and this caused a power vacuum within the country. This eventually led to the remaining active citizens joining forces in a new government, which excluded Ballistic3scuit due to his perceived poor leadership. This effectively dissolved Braznichiya, and transformed it into the Vostok Republika, a new socialist country with the purpose of fixing the flaws of Braznichiya and continuing its legacy.
== Old Government ==
The Braznichiyan government is made up of two branches, the Executive Branch and the Legislative Branch. The Executive Branch is made up of two Supreme Leaders (Ballistic3iscuit and Kushka), and the Legislative Branch is made up of the Senate, led by the Head of Senate.
The Senate is the main Representative body of the Braznichiyan Government. Senators are elected by the people, and the Senators elect one of their own to the Head of Senate. The Senate's size will be directly proportional to the population, with 2 Senators per 10 Citizens (this number is may be subject to change). The Head of Senate holds one vote, and the Supreme Leaders will act as a tie breaker if the need arises.
Only Citizens of Braznichiya can run for Senate positions. Heads and Vice-Heads of Ministries cannot run for Senate except in times of need. The two Supreme Leaders cannot run for Senate Positions. Unless specified otherwise, Senators have the option to re-run for Senate positions indefinitely, this includes the Head of Senate.
When Senate is in session, any Citizen and accepted Foreign dignitary or visitor will be allowed to watch the session. The Supreme Leaders or Head of Senate have the power to bar any individual foreigner from senate sessions for any reason, Heads and Vice-Heads of Ministries have the power to bar any individual foreigner from senate sessions given the authority by a Supreme Leader of the Head of Senate.
Whenever the Senate Votes on decisions only a simple majority is needed for all but the following:
* Declaration of War
* Signing of military/defense treaties
* Joining alliances
* Declaration of National Emergency
* Vote of no confidence in Minister/Military leader
These decisions must have a 2/3rds majority, all else only requires 51% majority to pass and include (but are limited to):
* Instating new laws
* Deciding if a decision needs a 2/3rds majority to pass
Senators who hold themselves improperly can be voted off by the Senate, this too requires a 2/3rd majority, though in times of national emergency, the Supreme Leaders or Head of Senate can temporarily remove a Senator for office, but can not bar a Senator from running for election.
Power over the country is shared by the Supreme Leaders and the Head of Senate, with each of the three members holding one vote (not a Senate voe). The Supreme Leaders and Head of Senate may hold a vote (between the three of them) when they feel it is important to do so, and the majority would win.
