Taraan Nacionalaan Rihtevpasoõn

Taraan Nacionalaan Rihtevpasoõn (Taranian National Broadcasting/Broadcaster) is the government-run public broadcaster of Tarania. It was founded in 1928 as Radio Syktyvykar. It adopted its current name in 1936 and started television broadcasts in 1958.
For years, even after the launch of commercial competition, it was often viewed as a tool of the government, though, in recent years, Centrum Televisioõn claimed the spot that TNR/TNT used to occupy.
It was admitted into the Eurectipherian Broadcasting Union in 1993, when Eastern Eurectipherian broadcasters joined as the OIRT was dissolved.
TNR has been subjected to a series of changes in its directive. The prime consequences were the constant changes in nomenclature and scheduling for each service.
==History==
===Combined===
Until 1998, TNR (Taraan Nacionalaan Radio) and TNT (Taraan Nacionalaan Televisioõn) were considered to be separate companies. The combined TNR (Taraan Nacionalaan Rihtevpasoõn) was a grouping set up in 1958 when television was introduced. A law was passed in April 1998 paving way for a better unified radio and television service sustained by the government.
The combined broadcaster has been a constant target for changes, usually every four to five years. The most noteworthy changes were in 2008, 2012, 2014 and 2018.
===Radio===
Radio was introduced in 1928 as Radio Syktyvykar. Due to the expansion of the transmitter network, it adopted the TNR name in 1936.
===Television===
Television was introduced in October 1958. A second channel followed in February 1965. Color broadcasts started in 1980. During the Communist regime, television mainly broadcast endless amounts of political propaganda, yet, oddly enough, aired programming from capitalist countries. In the 80s, TNT 1 broadcast Dallas late at night (around 22:30 by the standards of the time) before the closing headlines so that young children wouldn't watch series that incited to capitalism in general. In 1986, TNT 1 broadcast Veracrucian telenovelas. Gabriela was the first one, yet wasn't well-received, yet Isaura the Slave managed to overcome social barriers and incite people to study on Veracrucian life in the days of the Empire. Police vans were known as "Izaura" (after the orthographically-adapted name of the character) because of slave-ish treatments imposed by the Taranian police. When the series was repeated during the fall of Communism, both TNT channels broadcast the series simultaneously, so that everyone with a television set could pay attention. A remake (broadcast in the 2000s) got more attention.
In September 1989, TNT launched TNT 3, relaying content from Eurectipherian entertainment channels before restructuring itself as a combined sports and youth channel.
As of 2018, TNT 1, TNT 2, TNT 3, TNT 6 and TNT 7 still close down for the night. According to the law, TNT has to keep two of its domestic channels - the sports channel and the news channel - on air overnight. TNT 6 is the channel that broadcasts the least amount of hours, about eight a day from 16:00. The main channels broadcast on average for twenty hours and TNT 7 from 06:00 to 21:00.
A new administration took control of TNT on September 10, 2018. To the surprise of many, the entire network was grouped into numbered channels to show more coherence. The international channel, formerly known as TNT World, was renamed TNT 8. The possible cause for the rebrand was that the broadcaster would easily avoid issues with WarnerMedia's TNT channel, which in the country was available in the 90s before renaming itself to TCM. The TNT 8 rebrand also caused a stir among the members of the diaspora who regularly tune in.
The change came in line as part of a 60-day celebration of the innauguration of their main channel in 1958.
