Union of Theo & Barnova

The Union of Theo & Barnova was a country that existed from 1925 to 1999. Theo & Barnova was the last of the Shean isles to gain independence, gaining independence on the 10th of November 1925. Theo & Barnova was initially taken over by self-appointed President, Georgi Semano, who remained President until calling the 1927 Presidential Election and the 1927 Senate Election, leading to him being replaced by William Brackhurst as President. Brackhurst held senate elections in 1929 and 1931 before banning elections entirely in 1931. Brackhurst's country was embroiled in civil war between 1949 and 1950, leading to his execution and the establishment of the new republic. The country was controlled by the Action Party between 1950 and 1965, then the National Left Party between 1965 and 1975, then the Barnovan Nationalist Party between 1975 and 1990, then the National Left Party again between 1990 and 1995, and finally the Shean Party between 1995 and 1999, before uniting with the other Shean Isles to form the Shean Republic.
== History ==
=== Independence & Early Independence Years: 1925 - 1927 ===
After the independence of the Union of Theo & Barnova, a 12-person council was formed by senior figures who represented the country during the process of its independence. The council ended up electing one of its members, Georgi Semano, as President of the country. The early stages of independence saw the creation and opening of the Senate of Theo & Barnova on the 1st of March 1926 that included 50 Senators who were all appointed by President, Georgi Semano. Semano would then disband his 12-person council the same day and replace it with the Presidential Cabinet.
Semano's one-party state was initially somewhat supported by the public for around a year after his appointment as President of the country. This change by around Summer/Autumn 1927, leading to the demand by people for elections to be held. Semano agreed to hold free and fair elections sometime in 1927 in an attempt to win back support from the people. The senate disagreed with his decision to hold elections, fearing that their jobs would be lost after the results of the election. Three political parties were created in the wake of the election around late 1927 to early 1928. Those parties included the New National Party, Liberal Centrist Party, and Social Liberal Party.
=== Electoral Years: 1927 - 1931 ===
The 1927 Presidential and Senate Elections were held on the 6th of April 1927 to elect a President and 50 senators. Campaigning for the election was very minimal due to the political parties having little money to campaign with. Georgi Semano and most of the senators in power joined the New National Party with some joining the Liberal Centrist Party and one senator joining the Social Liberal Party. Georgi Semano was New National's candidate as President and was up against the other two party's unpopular candidates and one other independent candidate called William Brackhurst. The results of the senate election gave New National 27 seats, Liberal Centrist 3 seats, and Social Liberal 20 seats. The results of the presidential election gave William Brackhust 62.4% of votes, Georgi Semano 30.1% of votes, and the other two candidates 7.5% of votes.
