Dunistisches Kaiserreich

The Dunistian Flag

The TUF-Territory

### **General Information**

The **Dunistian Kaisereich**, also known as **Dunistian Empire** or called by the **Dunistians** themselves **Dunistisches Kaiserreich** is a nation which inhabitated once the Twin Galaxies known as The United Federations Galaxy and the Cornelia Galaxy but with the migration of the Stahlherzbund to the SHB-Galaxy now settled somewhere else.

The **Dunistian Kaiserreich** played a major part in the creation of the Stahlherzbund alongside Belke and John - which was the first foundation in becoming a big alliance.

### **History**

#### **Possible Creation**

It is speculated that the **Renmants** came from a space-faring nations, a fallen great empire which settled down on Dunist. This is based upon the artifical sky on the planet **Dunist** and the lanet **Paseron** - while the planets orbit a black hole.

It is unknown what exactly happend to the renmants or why they settled there in the first place but it's believed that the upper class of them created the goverment while the lower class was forced to work.

#### **Pre-Revolution**

Not much is known before the **Uprising**, sparked by **Maximilian Dunist** - the **first Dunistian Emperor**. Before the nation has gone interstellar and traveled across the stars, a human species which is today called **Dunistians** lived in poverty. The people lived unter the oppression of a corrupt state, the president and goverment didn't care for them and while allowing votes but neglecting their opinions - the goverment was in a circle of corruption and neglection.

Only a few could live the dream of freedom which others only dreamed about. Also during this time, the prominent **royal-tounge** wasn't as widespread as today - because it was only spoken by a certain group of people.

#### **The Dunistian Rebellion**

##### **Workers Uprising**

The Dunistian Rebellion sparked after a inspiring speech, held by **Maximillian von Dunist**. Publicly speaking to the citizens that this life can't be endured any longer:

> "We cannot accept this life anymore! We live like rats, soiling in our own mud and blood while the goverment elected live in apartments above the smog while we suffer down there! They eat fresh meat and green vetegables while we can merely afford some bread and water! I say that is enough! I will personally end this tyranny even it will cost my own head!"
>
> Maximillian von Dunist

This speech sparked a **Workers Uprising**, first listening just to the words of this man but then becoming violent. As the **followership** gained more and more members, it was clear that a **uprising was near**. First the followers raided families living in wealth, while not killing them but taking all goods - Maximillian made sure that the families were not harmed.

##### **Dunistian Identity**

After a while, the followership started to call themselves and identifying themselves as **Dunistians,** after the last name of **Maximillian** and guarding him like a monarch. Like a good monarch, he charged in the frontlines while caring for his fellow men and women. He reportedly gave poor his shoes and other his meals. But **Maximillian** had a mantra, which is quite famous in the empire; **"Strength through Compliance"**. Meaning the Dunistians were only strong because everyone did follow orders and making sure that no rules were broken.

##### **Civil War**

The **Civil War** took several years, at the cost of many lives. During this time, Maximillian was named **Emperor of Dunist** (something he was humble about but very pleased) also **introduced the fist kind of social welfare on this planet.** Families who lost a family member did get backing and support by the people, making sure they could survive without problem.

The **Dunistian Civil War** ended with the defeat of the goverment and execution of goverment officals.

### **Modern History**

#### **Reign under Dunist the First (Maximillian von Dunist)**

The Reign of Dunist the First was an **era of rebuilding.** Emperor Dunist the First is responsible for the first election held for a goverment - which resulted in the establishment of the **constitutional monarchy of Dunist.** The goverment worked alongside the emperor during his reign. The first years were to rebuild the infrastructure and building modern houses for the citizens - alongside introducing **new education and welfare policies.**

During his reign he **united** the **Dunistians** further, making them proud to be dunistians regardless of their heritage. Everyone should be looked honourable upon from the farmer to the doctor. He built also the foundation for the **military pride** and transforming the militia to a proper military force with conscription and being taught the values of the empire.

After many years of technological advancements, space travel beacame affordable. **Fortunately**, Dunist the First lived long enough to see the neighbour planet **Paseron** being colonized by the first settlers and becoming a suitable planet. **He died peacefully in his sleep.**

#### **Reign under Dunist the Second (Zelevas von Dunist)**

##### **Before the Siegfriedian Putsch**

The son of Dunist the First, **Zelevas von Dunist,** didn't announced himself to be emperor at first - because he thought the citizens didn't want a new emperor. Gladly, the citizens cried for him to become the **second Emperor.** He accepted this with gratitude, getting crowned at the age of 20 and naming himself **Dunist the Second.** He started where his father left of, let the **Dunistian Kaiserreich** become a **powerhouse** while he also ordered the first **Paseron Dreadnought.**

Zelevas married and get two sons (Charles and Siegfried) and one adopted daughter (Lena Maria). At the age of 40, Zelevas played a major part in creating the Stahlherzbund with the first two nation members consisting of Belke and John. His vision for the Stahlherzbund was to unite the galaxy in a peacefull way, with a functioning senate and rightfull represenation.

During his reign the Kaiserreich partook in the TUF-IWI War and the Precourser Invasion.

**Dunist the Second** died during the **Siegfriedian Putsch.** He left behind two sons and one adopted daugther.

##### **Siegfriedian Putsch**

The former prince, **Siegfried Maximillian von Dunist** ordered his soldiers to attack a primitive civilization known as **Aeon** and commited a genocide on their society - leaving only a few survirors. The prince forged an **alliance** with the political party of the **Dunistian Liberals**, promising them benefits in supporting his rule. But **Siegfried** forged fake reports to frame the **Dunistian Liberals** for genociding the primitive society. Following this, **Siegfried** ordered the **assassination** of the **emperor** and the kidnapping of Lena.

Siegfried succeded in the former but failed in the kidnapping attempt. He ordered his troops to search for her, while the Stahlherzbund which become bigger supported the princess.

**Lena Maria von Dunist** first sought approval of the primitive Aeon's in supporting her endevour to take the throne back. **Siegfried,** underestimating the authority of **Lena** let her travel to the home planet - where she used engaged troops which had the orders to kill her on sight. Fortunately, they joined the princess.

The confrontation was quick, without many words the girl surprised the man with a quick strike.

Siegfried was found guilty and was expelled from the royal family and was executed by the Aeons. **Charles von Dunist** announced that his "sister" will take the throne, dubbing himself **Count Charles von Dunist.** The Count took over the colonies of the Cornelia Galaxy and later married to have two daughters.

#### **Reign of Kaiserin Dunistia die Erste (before migration)**

##### **Before the Treason of Trystan Crate**

During her reign, the empress managed to include the primitive society of Aeons to the Kaiserreich - which became proud Dunistians. She became the first political figure of the Stahlherzbund - dealing with the Titanicus Crisis, the Gulag Conflict and many interventions involving bigger nations harrassing neutral smaller nations. She is also the first, who used the full title in the **royal tounge.**

Later, it has been revelealed that she is not the daughter of **Emperor Dunist the Second** but rather his **granddaughter** - while her mother **Valeria von Dunist** was alive but separated. While the public was shocked, they reassured their loyality to the empress. The empress later got a daughter, with the **cloning facility** of John - making her a proud mother of **Aurora von Dunist**. The Kaiserin also adopted a Johnian which was named **Maximillian II.** **von Dunist**.

In her reign, a part of the colony in the Cornelia Galaxy broke from the Kaiserreich - which was later revealed to be a doing by the **Siegfriedian Order,** fascists that were still loyal to the idea of the deceases Siegfried. The by the **Siegfriedian Order** infiltrated so called **Dunistian Republic** was shortlived - because a genetically altered clone of Siegfried, named **Wolfgang von Dunist** revealed the true intention of the **Siegfriedian Order**, succeeding in the rebellion and establishing the Dunistian Marauders. Wolfgang became King, alongside with 3 clones made with the royal genes which became his siblings.

##### **The Treason of Trystan Crate**

The Treason of the **president Trystan Crate** came suddenly. He ordered the explosion of the **Dunistian Parliament** and framed the Royal Family for collaberating with these terrorist, forging evidence and quickly ordering the personal bodyguard of the Royal Family to kill them. Luckily enough, Wingate Hailstone, the bodyguard didn't do it and hid the royal family.

During the rule of Trystan Crate, he dissolved the parliament, collaberated with many uprising industries and hiring mercenaries to be his army. Wolfgang later learned about this incident and the survival of the royal family and extracted them, while riots were happening on the streets. Taking them back to the homeworld of the Dunistian Marauders.

##### **The 3-Party-War beginning**

With the reveal that the Royal Family has survived and where not the perpetrators of the explosion - the 3 Party War started.

###### **Dunistian Royalist's**

First, the **Dunistian Royalists** announced themselves after the reveal that the Royal Family is alive and pledged their alliance to the Kaiserin. They consisted of the former political parties of the **Dunistian Fundamentalist's** and **Dunistian Nationalist's** - they aimed for an absolute monarchy. These forces were backed up by the members of the Stahlherzbund, United States of America, the Dunistian Marauders and later by the Barisian Empire.

###### **Dunistian Socialist Movement**

Following the reveal of the **Dunistian Royalists,** the political parties consisting of the **Workers Association**, the **Dunistian Greens** and a part of the **Dunistian Fundamentalists.** They formed because of they disliked the thought of the absolute monarchy or the rule of Präsident Crate. They were backed up mostly by civilians from the Federated Communes of Cygnus X-1.

###### **Republic of Dunist**

Präsident Crate, followed suit and established the **Republic of Dunist**. It was supported by various corrupt politicians and corrupt companies. Their strenght came from Barisian Droids (which later betrayed the republic) and bought SSS-Mercenaries. The citizens however disliked the rule of Crate, banning multiple things that were needed for the common worker - like banning strikes or lifting several laws that prohibits the companies in paying less than average.

##### **The 3-Party-War Conflict**

The Civil-War mostly happend in The United Federations Galaxy since the colony in the Cornelia Galaxy was swiftly taken by the **Kaiserin** and become a safe place for the young royals during the conflict.

Relatively at the start of the war, the **Dunistian Royalists** forged an alliance with the **Dunistian Socialist Movement** - setting their differences aside for now.

The war was relatively short lived, since the Republic failed to properly maintain the money flow for the mercenaries and was defeated under the loss of combined forces. During this time, the Barisian Empire betrayed **Präsident Crate** by letting the droids start turning against the mercenaries - while the citizens revolted now, knowing that rescue is near. Nonetheless, infrastructure was damaged and many brave dunistians gave their lifes for a better future.

##### **Post 3-Party-War**

Präsident Crate and his allies were prosecuted and executed for treason against the nation, the people and against the crown. While rebuilding and getting somekind of normality was the highest goal for the winning sides (**Dunistian Royalist's** and the **Dunistian Socialist Movement**) it was also time to set up the goverment.

**Kaiserin Dunistia, Count Charles** and many **Royalist's** met up with the delegation of the **Socialist Movement,** which consited of workers, farmers, writers or soldiers. Speaker for the **Socialist Movemen**t were the uprising writer **Rosa Vogt** and commander of the SBE **Ernst Mayer**. Both got equal seats and consisted of each 50% of the table.

The results of the meeting were:

* Re-establishing Worker Unions and councils / Workplace-Democracy
* Establishing of the Expert Council
* Re-establishing of Courts and Police (other goverment bodies included for various fields)
* Establishing the role of the representative of the people / Speaker of the People
* Creation of regional self control - election of local authorities such as Stadträte
* The Royal Family becomes the represenatives of the Kaiserreich and keeps the council in tact.

##### **Pre-Migration**

Before the migration to the SHB-Galaxy took place, the Kaiserreich became more isolated except its relations to other **Stahlherzbund-Nations**. It is unknown why this happend but it is assumed because of the rebuilding of the Kaiserreich and reintroducing old and new laws to the citizen. It became invested in the mysterious happenings of Anovia before the migration happend.

##### **Migration with the Stahlherzbund**

Much like the Dunistian Marauders or Belke, the Dunistians had a **dream** about a foreign Galaxy which felt real and like a purpose to move there. With the united decision of the **Expert Council** and the **Monarchs** - the Dunistians left the Twin-Galaxies to move with most of the Stahlherzbund-Nations to a new destination. Only a few volunteerys were left behind to communicate between the **remaining SHB-Nations** set in the Twin-Galaxies to the new Galaxy. It was a giant undertaking to migrate the whole civilization but it was successfull.

### **Post-Migration**

#### **Reign of Kaiserin Dunistia die Erste (Post-Migration)**

Under the **guidance** of the **Kaiserin** the **Kaiserreich** begins to blossom once again in the new Galaxy. With enough **place** and **ressources** to prosper the Kaiserreich continues to strive - without worrying about the Twin-Galaxies and it's inhabitants.

In the new Galaxy, the **Kaiserreich** became a
