The **Caspian Sea Resolution** (also known as the **Parkerian Draft,** the **Parkerian Drafts**, and by its abbreviation as the **CSR**) are a series of military conscriptions and war taxes in a legislative resolution passed by the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government (approved by the 25th Chawopolis Palace, ratified by the 1st Continent Union Federal Assembly, and signed into law by Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker) to give Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker complete power to call up Chawosaurians ages 21 to 45 for the draft to serve in the Chawosaurian Imperial Armed Forces in four ongoing wars: the Chawo-Uralic War, the Chawo-Pacific War, the Chawo-Adarian War, and the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Wars, and other conflicts associated with the Continent Union Border Wars. The Caspian Sea Resolution also gives Supreme Leader Parker total authorization to begin a war only if it is related to Operation Divide and Conquer, the Resolution does not permit Parker to instigate a war or involve Chawosauria into any other war such as the War on Terror. The Caspian Sea Resolution was introduced in response to the ISIL-Caspian Triangle narrative of the Parker administration about the Caspian-Urals Aid Network which was discovered by the Empire of Chawosauria Intelligence Agency in April 2021, In response, the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government introduced the Caspian Sea Resolution on May 1, 2021 and it passed with overwhelming bipartisan support than expected from both the Chawosaurian Communist Party and the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party. Only 6 people (3 from the Chawopolis Palace and another 3 from the Continent Union Federal Assembly) opposed the resolution. The Caspian Sea Resolution was amended by the Nobody Buys Out Act of 2022 to keep draft-eligible Chawosaurians of whatever income status from purchasing their way out of military conscription.

The Caspian Sea Resolution ordered the military conscription of Chawosaurian citizens ages 21 to 45 into military service in the Chawo-Uralic War regardless of their sex and the Caspian Sea Resolution triggered the general mobilization of the Chawosaurian Imperial Armed Forces for military operations in the Chawo-Uralic War to suppress the Uralic Insurgency against the Ural Wall, a border between two Chawosaurian Continental Federal Republics, being the Federal Republic of Asia and the Federal Republic of Europe. Women who are pregnant, Chawosaurians over 45, Chawosaurians who are married, Chawosaurians who are university students, Chawosaurians with mental and physical disabilities, Chawosaurians with criminal records, Chawosaurians who are religious, and Chawosaurians who are of ethnic minority neighborhoods (due to racial segregation) are either excused or banned from military service.

The enactment and ratification of the Caspian Sea Resolution was a defeat for the anti-war movement in Chawosauria because there was no backlash or accountability against the Parker administration from the Chawosaurian public because of the psychological trauma suffered by the public from the COVID-19 Pandemic, the George Floyd Protests, the 2020 United States Presidential Election, and the 2020 Wildfire Season. While this did greatly irritated the anti-war movement, they were greatly mobilized to oppose the war in the near future, giving re-rise to the Hippie movement in Chawosauria, as well as a sudden introduction of the right-wing Tea Party Movement to Chawosauria in resistance to the resolution's war taxes, even though the Tea Party Movement's role in the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol caused reputable damage to the Tea Party Movement's name in the eyes of Chawosaurians. However, in general all across the political spectrum, Opposition to the Chawo-Uralic War has broke out.

The Caspian Sea Resolution came to effect on July 1, 2021, and all Chawosaurians ages 21 to 45 must register for military conscription for recruit training before military service during the Chawo-Uralic War to fight Uralic Chawosaurian Insurgents.

The Chawo-Uralic War had been a military disaster for Chawosauria, the Chawosaurian Imperial Government underestimated the dogged determination of Uralis to defend their homeland against what they saw in the Ural Wall as Chawosaurian colonialism, this made borders and border control politics turned into taboo subjects among Chawosaurians, and draft evasion had been fairly widescale but not widespread, and the most recent blow to Chawosauria's war effort in the Ural Mountains is the Urali takeover of the Ural Wall in December 2021, further interfering with Chawosaurian morale and further boosted Urali morale. Resulting in the outbreak of the Battle of the Ural Wall and escalating opposition to both the war and the Ural Wall.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 begins to haunt Chawosauria over the Chawo-Uralic War, Russia invaded Ukraine under the orders of the Kremlin due to Kremlin calculations that Russia can easily conquer Ukraine on the back of Ukrainian civilian indifference, but the invasion backfired as Ukrainians rose up in violent hostility against invading Russian forces, forcing the Russians on the defensive while trying to accomplish their mission to topple the Ukrainian government to install a Russia-backed puppet government in its place, resulting in an agonizingly protracted invasion which was deemed by the Kremlin as a "special military operation". The invasion of Ukraine by Russia sparked universal empathy for Ukraine and Russia globally villainized that the west imposed harsher than expected sanctions to cripple Russia and supplied Ukraine with weapons, artillery, and military training for emboldened Ukrainian soldiers. The invasion backfired so bad for Russia that the Kremlin was forced to make some agonizing compromises to make the conflict work, Russia ended their mission to Kyiv, allowing the Ukrainian government to remain in place, and rerouted its forces into Russian strongholds in Ukraine, being the Donbas region. After months of stagnant progress, Ukraine launched a surprise offensive on northeast Ukraine, pushing the Russians back and liberating Ukrainian civilians living under Russian terror, this appalled the Putin regime and excited the west. Desperate to defeat Ukraine, Russian president Vladimir Putin ordered the mobilization (deemed partial mobilization) to gain manpower to overwhelm Ukraine into defeat after constant failure to defeat the Ukrainians with attritional warfare, constant bombing, and intentional killings of civilians, but the mobilization backfired as Russians either took to the streets to protest despite risks for arrests and many more of them emigrating out of Russia to avoid being drafted, putting further suppression on the Kremlin's war effort. It doesn't help Russia so much that there were even terrorist attacks on Russian enlistment centers.

The War in Ukraine and the domestic fallout on Russia sparked weariness amongst Chawosauria's political higherups these events in Russia may inspire Chawosaurians to take similar actions against the Caspian Sea Resolution due to the Chawo-Uralic War being widely unpopular among Chawosaurians and the poor direction of the war for Chawosauria.

## Background

The Chawo-Uralic War started on January 5, 2020, when the Empire of Chawosauria invaded the Ural region to quell resistance to the Ural Wall, the COVID-19 pandemic forced the war to fall under a temporary ceasefire coincided with the 2020-2023 Chawosauria COVID-19 Lockdown. During the whole time of the lockdown and the pandemic, Uralic insurgents took advantage of Chawosauria being greatly distracted by the pandemic with their War on Coronavirus which took up much of their military budget and resources, Uralic insurgents used up all the time to train and organize their new military and recruit, mobilize, and forge political alliances to allies who will support them against the Chawosaurians, prominently with Chawosaurians who live in the Caspian region, resulting in the establishment of the Caspian-Urals Aid Network, a route in which Caspian Chawosaurians give money, weapons, food resources, and medical aid to the Uralic insurgents to fight the Chawosaurian Imperial Armed Forces when the ceasefire expires which in effect the war would resume.

The Chawosaurian Intelligence Community uncovered the Caspian-Sea Aid Network, provoking the Parker administration to issue SL Order No. I-2021, which begins the slow reopening of Chawosauria and strangely effects the Chawo-Uralic War,
