Tulipia

== Government ==
Tulipia is a representative democracy, where the people elect the leaders. These leaders include: the President, and the Vice President. If a race ends up being very close or a tie, the senate does a vote on which candidate should win said race. 
=== Submitting Laws and Other Things ===
All three of the leaders can submit things they think should occur like laws, and they do this by submitting it, then the next president (ie. if you were the President, the next president would be the Vice President) votes on it, then the next. After the three leaders are done voting on something, they then pass it down to the senate who vote on it. Depending on their vote, the law gets passed.
=== Tsardoms ===
In Tulipia, there are tsardoms, which are basically ministries or departments. Each Tsardom specializes in a specific branch of the government. Such system of governance was abandoned beginning the Wonk administration
=== Senate ===
The Senate is a group of democratically elected senators who vote on laws, diplomatic decisions, and the leaders of Tulipia. Every three months the senate has to vote in a new administration of Tulipia. The Senate is comprised of four-five senators, who are all democratically elected every month. 
== Administrations of Tulipia ==
There have been two administrations in Tulipia so far. An administration is made up of a President, Vice President, and Chancellor.
===Vicrowave Administration===
The very first Tulipian administration was the Vicrowave Administration. This administration was made up of Vicrowave as President, WTheWonk as Vice President, and Hypzard as Prime Minister. This administration lasted August 6th-September 27th. On September 27th the Wonk Administration began.
===Wonk Administration===
The Wonk Administration started on September 27th and has been going since. WTheWonk was elected as President, RandomSkelaboi as Vice President, and Konahiloruby as Chancellor. Chancellor was introduced as a new leadership role, which replaced Prime Minister. Chancellor is a senator appointed as leader of the senate and third-in-command. Such government reform however was quickly thrown into a state of chaos due to the firing of Random Skelaboi due to his undiplomatic conduct. The responsibilities was then divided up to the chancellor, Konahiloruby, senator Gxlen von Getter, and a newly appointed position of Treasurer, in which BlueExceed_Happy was appointed.
== History ==
=== Establishment ===
The first thing that was built in Calioptergrad was a tiny spruce house. After Vicrowave joined, more houses and building cropped up in the city. A few more people joined and a bridge was built between the mainland of Calioptergrad and the island of Stanbena was constructed. 
=== The Kringal-Calioptergrad Deal ===
The first event, after being established by Hypzorick Caliopteryx, was the squatting debacle with Kringal. The city of Calioptergrad was founded on northern Kringe territory unknowingly, so after some deals were made and subsequently revoked, a final deal was placed for Calioptergrad to pay Kringal 25 thousand dollars for the land. Agreeing, the issue was finally resolved on the 6th of August, and it directly lead to the official founding of Tulipia.
=== Declaration of Independence ===
On August 6th, 2021, the country of Tulipia officially declared independence from Bardonia and immediately instilled Hypzard, Vicrowave, and Edvardo as the three leaders of the nation, with Hypzard being the Prime Minister, Vicrowave being the President, and Edvardo being the Vice President. 
=== The Cypria Purchase ===
Just after declaring independence, on the 7th of August, 2021, Tulipia bought a chunk of land from Leythe named Cypria. A city was established there the same day, which was named accordingly.
=== The Fall of Akratia ===
After the attempted annexation of the Akratian Dominion by The Free States of Tortuga, declarations of war began to occur a lot in Sparwood Minor, with most of the Second CSS Pact declaring war on Tortuga. The Republic of Tulipia also declared war on Tortuga in order to help secure and legitimize the CSS and all nations residing in it. However, after the war was canceled and Akratia was annexed, the declaration of war was revoked. 
=== King Alpha0S0 and the the Cyrumar Crisis ===
In early October 2021, Tulipia took in the kingdom of Cyrumar as a vassal for mutual cooperation. In this arrangement, Cyrumar will be under Tulipia, and King Alpha is to be married to Chancellor Konahiloruby. Tensions rose quikly, when the king's personal debt came to light. Believing the debt was taken in the interest of the kingdom, King Alpha demanded the debts to be paid by Tulipia. And so, the king requested Tulipia should help pay off their debt along with developing his domain. Tulipia however believed that the kingdom is not responsible for the debt, stating that it was King's personal problem. Tulipia however was forced to help with the debt when King Alpha proclaimed that his kingdom will be the collateral in the moment the debt defaults. Tulipia then attempted to make a deal with Cyrumar's debt holder, Solisios, in which it came to light that the king Alpha owes double of what he claims. Enraged, Tulipia created a deal in which Cyrumar will be under direct rule of Tulipia to fix its economy and will be paying off half of the king's debt. Enraged by the deal, King Alpha declared Independence from Tulipia stating that Tulipia had no right to make such deals and that becoming a vassal was his biggest mistake. The king then banished Queen Konahiloruby, for she was the chancellor of Tulipia, and Cyrumar Premier Jaxamax (Bismarck01), after discovering a conspiracy to rebel against him. Hours of negotiation wasted as well as the act of rebellion, Tulipia declared war on Oct 20, 2021. Calling upon Tulipia's alliance the Free Union of Sparwood, Monterre, and Eisenland offered to assist, with Akratia and the non member nation of Tortuga joining later to help. A two week siege took place ending with King Alpha's escape to Kartek.
=== Tulipian Peace ===
Post Cyrumar conflict, Tulipia entered a peacetime. The government spending approximately 75% of its wealth to fund the war effort, the government with the help of the current president Wonk's company ran a joint venture known as the Tulipian Trade Company. 
This however did not mean that trouble was out of the picture. In this case, Friholm started eyeing Tulipia by starting the rumor that the government is planning on conquering their city, using the sole evidence of the accounts of one their new new citizens, who don't have any connections with Tulipia. Rosa also began positioning
