N.S.T.C

The North Sulawesi Treaty Coalition (N.S.T.C) is an old alliance, founded on January 28, 2019, by Octavian and Phoenix. Later the leadership was transferred to H. Stickmin Esq in September, 2019, to starbucksiswron in September, 2021, and to Pakistan in November, 2021.
N.S.T.C is currently the 2nd most valuable alliance and is the last remaining member of "The Big 3" to have not undergone unrecognizable leadership, membership, cosmetic, or doctrine change, since the beginning of The Drewsades. The alliance among the oldest of still standing alliances, having stood for over 3 years. Despite it's name the North Sulawesi Treaty Coalition, does not control any part of the island of Sulawesi, instead it has complete control over the Indian sub-continent and it has served as a powerbase for the alliance, since before The Drewsades. India is generally considered the second most potential region in the world, behind China, putting N.S.T.C in a very powerful position. N.S.T.C shares domination of the Asian continent, with the neighboring New Genesis and Imperial Sakura after their loss of control over China in the Drewsade, now controlling the Middle East, India, and South East Asia. 
==History==
=== Foundation===
The N.S.T.C was founded January 28, 2019 by Octavian of the West Papuan Empire and Phoenix of Makassar, little is known of this period.
===Octavian Administration===
==== (January 28, 2019 - September 2019) ====
Octavian was the first leader of N.S.T.C, he reigned for 7 months. 
===H. Stickmin Esq Administration===
==== (September 2019 - September 19, 2021) ====
H. Stickmin Esq was the second and the second longest reigning leader of N.S.T.C, remaining in power for two years, he was the chosen successor of Octavian. Under his leadership N.S.T.C grew into one of the largest and most powerful alliances, survived the Drewsades, and long enough for Stickmin to retire from leadership and pass on the leadership of N.S.T.C. His final order was to democratize the coalition.
==== Christian2094's Reach ====
During the times after the Drewsades, Christian2094 took up more and more leadership responsibilities in the Coalition, overshadowing Stickmin in the eyes of the other members and Co-Leaders.
===1st starbucksiswron Administration===
==== (September 20, 2021 - November 19, 2021) ====
starbucksiswron was the third and shortest officially reigning leader of N.S.T.C, he reigned for two months, he was the chosen successor to H. Stickmin Esq. Under his leadership N.S.T.C was attacked and nearly destroyed by the 501st Legion, and for the remainder of his second term he attempted to maintain the integrity of the Coalition and set the path for revival. A vote to restore the permanent leader system saw him elected out of leadership.
===Pakistan Regime===
==== (November 20, 2021 - Current) ====
Pakistan was the fourth and longest reigning leader of N.S.T.C, reigning for two year and three months as of February, 2024 . He was elected as the new permanent leader of N.S.T.C and was backed by majority of the alliance, at the time. His reign was made notable by his Islamification of the alliance, opting to keep the tiger from the original alliance emblem. 
Sir Nils Olav and ComradeRaul also served as leaders during special circumstances, dates are not known.Leadership changes for reasons other than direct regime changes are not noted. Ex. changing leadership for non political reasons such as inactivity/placeholder
==Government==
===Overview===
N.S.T.C is a military-dictatorship like most alliances, however, it is much more accurate to classify it as an Oligarchy, as it is headed mainly by an old elite class in which the alliance leader finds their advice and support. Influence from ranks, below Co-Leaders is minimal, and all below them directly report to them. Co-Leaders and the Leader are interchangeable, as almost all with the Co-Leader rank posses the power to exert changes in the alliance so long, as they have the support of the rest of the cabinet. This makes for a closely knit command, making it very difficult to infiltrate from scratch.
N.S.T.C's cabinet now largely consists of Drewsaders and post-Drewsade members with starbucksiswron, the 3rd leader of N.S.T.C, having been a Drewsader alliance leader.
===Leadership===
====Elections in N.S.T.C====
On the 19th of every other month, a new leader would be instituted in the alliance. A new leader would have chosen by the previous leader with consultation of other alliance Co-Leaders via democratic voting process. A ceremony is conducted when leadership is transferred.https://pastebin.com/jVb703cd
