National State of Ikrayi

The National State of Ikrayi, more commonly reffered to as National Ikrayi or Nationalist Ikrayi, and more uncommonly as UoM Ikrayi, is a nationalist state located in what remains of the once prosperous Mawbol, which had faced a crisis and then invasion by the League of Somorcos and the Neuverian State, during which time National Ikrayi and also The East declared independence, both being founded by members of the Union of Mawbol.
==History==
===Political Turmoil and the Somorcos-Mawbol War (1925-1944)===
Following their defeat in The Great Astrat War to Bornia, Seirmor, Viland and the rest of the Pro-Viland Coalition, Mawbol would become isolationist and more extremist. In 1925, after having won the elections, the National Democrats would begin to reform the country, improving the education system and making the economy more centralised. After winning reelection in 1930, president James Longfield would begin working on a proposal to give the natives more rights, which was found out too early in 1931 by rightists in the party, who decided to call James out on it, leading to a split in the party, with the leftists forming the New Democratic National Party, while the rightists and centrists formed the Mawbol Party. This split would also split their seat count, allowing the Republicans to propose a no confidence vote against James and have it succeed, as the rightists voted along with them, and then take over the presidency with Sir Maurice Donbber, who would reverse most of the DNP's reforms and force through new rightists policies. The centrists in parliament, terrified by this, would decide to abandon the Mawbol party and Republicans, forming the Mawbol Status Quo Party, but this would only allow them to more easily be swept away from major politics. The Republicans would begin moving more and more to the right, reuniting with a minor party, that had split from them in 1931, the Union of Mawbols, forming the Union of Mawbol Republicans, while the National Democrats moved more left and rebranded to the Socialist Union of Mawbol in 1934. As the 1935 elections approached, chaos would begin in the streets of Mawbol, with fights between right-wing and left-wing paramilitaries and protests being common things, while the police was bribed into ignoring these issues, allowing them to only intensify. [a rework is coming in 2028 so stay tuned for that!]
When the SUM won the elections, it shocked and confused the UoMR, leading it to mass riots and even more paramilitary action, which the now SUM controlled police force would respond to with violence, beginning Bloody 35'. This had also been noticed by outside actors such as the Neuverian State and unified Somorcos, both fascist dictatorships, which now began funding and supporting the UoMR. After a entire year of chaos, the UoMR would attempt to assasinate and overthrow SUM president Paul Wayman, failing and resulting in a short civil war, which the UoMR would lose. The Neuverian State, unwilling to allow Mawbol to fall to socialism, would invade the country, soon being joined by the League of Somorcos. This invasion would last eight long years, with brutal guerilla tactics from the socialists and just as brutal bombing campaigns and mass killings by the fascists and foreign invadersw, ending with over 28 million dead by 1944. As the situation began to collapse for Mawbol by 1942, the Union of Mawbols would once more split from the dying UoMR, teaming up with the invaders and helping them push back the socialists, for which they would be awarded governorship over the provinces of Ikrayi, the Rakul's, Marannia and Malarnas, soon followed by others. This would be a major mistake for both sides, as the League of Somorcos would attempt to betray the UoM in 1943 to take full control over Mawbol, which would backfire, as the UoM proclaimed the independent states of National Ikrayi and The East, which would have to fight for around half a year to drive the foreign invaders back to Yellowia and Jameston, when the fighting ending on March 16th, 1944 with the signing of the Yellowia Armistice, though no official peace treaty to end the war ever followed.

Upon securing their independence, Ikrayi would begin to round up all natives within it's territory and send them to forced labour and extermination camps, which it called "finishing what our ancestors had started". Along with this, any opponents to the regime would also be rounded up and either deported into the interior provinces or simply shot, while schools and radios would be taken over by the government and refitted to teach people "the correct way of life", which in reality were simply the racist and hardline secularist beliefs of the government in propaganda form. This would on the surface lead to a swift growth in popularity of exterme nationalism, though in reality many people adopted these beliefs unwillingly in order to not be shot or deported from their homes, hoping to continue living a somewhat normal life forwards. These illusions would quickly be crushed as the government began taking over every aspect of daily life, demolishing most low income houses and forcing people into crowded and unhygenic communal houses built in "housing regions", with most of these people further being forced to work 10 hour manual labour, which for the first few years consisted of construction jobs, but later mostly turned to the industrial sphere, as the economy quickly became centrally planned and the state began attempting to achieve self-sufficiency. In 1946, the Ten Year Automation Programme would be put into use, which mandated even more factories, mines, housing and other utilities to be built along with the demolishment of most small shops, as all neccessary goods were planned to be handed out centrally by the state to "prevent unfair economics" (in reality it was simply so the state could take most of the produced products and noone could compete with them). After a drought hit the country in 1947 and killed 48 thousand civilians, the government would also forcefully take over all farms in the country and introduce communal farms, which would be worked on by a 80% native workforce as a continuation of the forced labour camps establised before. The government would also add the construction of dams and major canals to the list of tasks within the Ten Year Programme, forcing even more of the populace into forced construction work, now even reaching into the middle class. In 1949, after a wave of reforms, all schools across the country would be replaced with "teaching houses", which served the purpose of teaching children the basics they needed to know to work in construction and factory jobs, with the government also instituting child labour at the exact same time. With all of this, by 1950 Ikrayi had turned into an totalitarian police state funded by forced labour, which was hell-bent on exterminating all leftists and natives that remained within it's territory.
