The **2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government** is the session of parliament under the first five-years of Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker's first term, and it that lasted from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2024. Known as the **2020 Government** or **Govt '20**, or the **First Parkerian Government**, this government is widely called the **Parkerian Revolution** for the unprecedented number of legislative accomplishments, reforms, and programs it had enacted, and the incredible and unprecedented expansion of government even never been seen during the Webster premiership during the 1910s. It is a democratically-elected government that reigned the Empire of Chawosauria during the first five-years of Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker's ten-year term as Supreme Leader of the Empire of Chawosauria. The 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government was elected in the 2019 Chawosaurian elections. Starting in 2021, the Chawosaurian Communist Party controls the Monarchy (Shang Jong Parker), the Premiership (Jezebel Isela Boleslaus), Imperial Assembly of the Chawopolis Palace (25th Chawopolis Palace), and the Federal Assembly of the Continent Union (1st Federal Assembly of the Continent Union). At the beginning of this government in 2020, however, the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party briefly controlled the Premiership through Jonathan Sidney MacCarthy III from January 1, 2020 to April 20, 2020, while the Communists just controlled the Monarchy, the Chawopolis Palace, and continental governments, so when MacCarthy resigned, he was replaced by successor and communist, Jezebel Isela Boleslaus, thus in effect giving the Communist Party solid unified control of government. This will be the first government under the control of the Imperial Constitution of the Empire of Chawosauria which became law on July 1, 2023, a year before the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government expired on December 31, 2024.

The Chawosaurian Communist Party was looking forward to implement a socialist agenda, but it was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the fallout of racial unrest in the United States because of the police killing of George Floyd. The communist agenda was put on hold for the whole year and this government had to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak with the 2020-2023 Chawosauria COVID-19 Lockdown and supporting Supreme Leader Parker's War on Coronavirus. By 2021, when the COVID-19 vaccine has arrived that year, there was a sense of a restoration of normality, and the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government went to work, but the COVID-19 pandemic delivered new variants which delayed the end of the pandemic and sabotaged global economic recovery efforts. The Chawosaurian government escalated the Chawo-Uralic Conflict following its discovery of the Caspian-Urals Aid Network by the Empire of Chawosauria Intelligence Agency and the Chawo-Uralic War was escalated through the Caspian Sea Resolution, but Chawosauria escalated the war so bad that they lost control of it, resulting in the Uralic Insurgency's successful conquest of the Ural Wall in December 2021, the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government have also became unpopular throughout 2022 because of their over-passing of controversial pieces of legislations and programs. their indifference towards the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the fallout of the surge of inflation in the early 2020s. Despite these problems, the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government had a record of key record breaking accomplishments, especially on constitutional reform, the environment, and human rights.

The 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government was universally popular in 2020 and 2021 due to the Communist Party's incumbency, the traditionally usual patriotic unity behind parliament and the rally 'round the flag effect caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, but the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government has become an unpopular government by 2022, its approval rating as of October 2022 is the low 20s, the October 2022 survey showed only 20% of Chawosaurians held a favorable opinion of the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government. The sources of frustration amongst the Chawosaurian public is the over-legislating and mass expansion of government by the Socialist Coalition since its formation in February 2022, as well as their indifference towards the Russian invasion of Ukraine to keep the Russophile members of their coalition quiet, the direction of the Chawo-Uralic War, their inadequate handling of natural disasters throughout the world, their apathy towards rising inflation and the overall chaos of the early 2020s, and the Chawosaurian public is not very fond of the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government's handling of a proposed and widely popular national abortion ban. But since 2023 started, the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government's popularity began to recover largely due to events in the United States since the 2022 U.S. midterm elections, the Communists' regaining in popularity is attributed to the increasingly oblivious that the Christian right and the far right have gained significant power in the United States and began their assault on LGBT rights in the United States and the way race is discussed in the United States, affectively scarring Chawosaurians. Domestically, the Chawo-Uralic War has taken a low-level stage because the Parker administration moderated the war solely for political reasons, they did this by bogging down military deployments, operations, and the draft to lower the military death rate and increase the chances of potential peace talks, making the war a silent issue; and religion became an issue again in Chawosauria, new proposals to outlaw religion again gained both traction among Chawosaurian politicians and popularity with the Chawosaurian public due in part thanks to the political climate in America.

In 2023, the Chawosaurian Communist Party begin to see a recovering popularity due to these factors: Chawosaurians got scared of the increased prospect of a conservative parliament led by Wendell Rawlings Burton be potentially elected in the upcoming 2024 Chawosaurian legislative elections, this popularity surge is part of an incumbency boost as the 2024 Chawosaurian elections is quickly approaching, the Communist Party nominated new candidates who are less friendly to the widely unpopular Shang Jong Parker, as well as political chaos in the anti-communist United States of America since the Trump presidency, and the waning of the COVID-19 pandemic with Chawosauria entirely unscathed.

The major accomplishments of the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government include the successful staving off a COVID-19 pandemic in Chawosauria, the changing the entire political structure of the entire Chawosaurian political system, the Green New Deal, and a wave of several domestically progressive legislation particularly in the midst of domestic rollback of progress in the United States such as the ending of *Roe v. Wade*, the suppression of Black American history, and the censorship of LGBTQ topics.

By January 1, 2023, the Communist Party controls the Monarchy, the Prime Ministership, the General Secretariat, the Federal Chancellery, the Presidency, and supermajorities of both the Imperial Assembly of the Chawopolis Palace and the Federal Assembly of the Continent Union. This government is a *de-facto* national unity government because the leading opposition party, the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, had been overly supportive of the First Parkerian Government. Starting in February 17, 2022, the Socialist Coalition between the Chawosaurian Communist Party and the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party was established and came to power. This is the first elected government where Independent Checkers are present. After September 17, 2022, political parties had to share the balance of power with unelected, nonpartisan, anti-political, and constitutionalist Independent Checkers, The duty of Independent Checkers is to restrain the power of political parties and keep them in check.

## Background

> *Incumbent governments: 25th Chawopolis Palace and 1st Continent Union Federal Assembly*
>
>

The Chawosaurian Communist Party led by former Prime Minister Shang Jong Parker easily cruised to a smashing victory in the 2019 Chawosaurian elections to have total control of the **2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government**, but the Communist Party Administration of Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker had not been going well for the Chawosaurian Communist Party, the Communist Party administration of Shang Jong Parker came to power on January 1, 2020 and they were marked by the COVID-19 pandemic; the Parker administration also inherited from the Capitalist administration of Ekewaka Mikala Kalawai'a, the Presidency of Donald Trump in the United States which was going through impeachment proceedings and was up for reelection. For the Chawosaurian Communist Party, Shang Jong Parker's administration has not been going very well; in a personally stinging blow to a man who is a native from China, Parker suffered an early-term curse when a viral novel disease named COVID-19 emerged from the Chinese city of Wuhan and quickly became a global pandemic in less than a year, allowing room for the racial stigmatization towards Chinese people and other Asian peoples, but Parker managed to dodge the racial blowback with his War on Coronavirus campaign. In 2021, Parker escalated the Chawo-Uralic Conflict over the newly deployed Ural Wall between the Federal Republic of Europe and the Federal Republic of Asia with his instigation of the Chawo-Uralic War, but his escalation backfired and Chawosauria becomes trapped in "a Vietnam War situation" and following the Urali capture of the Ural Wall in December 2021, Chawosauria was forced into a long and unwinnable war of attrition. In 2022, the Communists formed an unpopular Socialist Coalition between them and the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, Parker stumbled on the crises in Kazakhstan and Canada, and the Russia's invasion of Ukraine caught Chawosauria completely off guard, resulting in a scramble to evacuate Chawosaurian Ukrainians out of Ukraine and relocate them to other nations despite an already escalating number of Chawosaurian Ukrainians getting lost in the process and Chawosaurian Ukrainian resistance to Shang Jong Parker's efforts and Parker himself and Parker suffered coup attempts even by within his own party. In the midst of a stagnant Chawosaurian economy, the Communist Party under Parker's orders have outright ignored and blatantly downplayed the early 2020s inflation surge by comparing inflation to the flu, calling it as just "an economic flu", and that there was no need for government action which speaking of government action, the Chawosaurian government passed a law barring the media from covering the inflation surge. From 2021 to 2023, the **2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government** did accomplished their 2019 campaign promises to establish Green New Deal programs in Chawosauria to address climate change and made reality the Imperial Constitution of the Empire of Chawosauria to massively democratize the entire political regime of the Empire of Chawosauria after over a century of weak democracy and subsequent dictatorship, especially during the Cold War.

## History

Because the Communist Party holds both the Monarchy and the Chawopolis Palace since January 1, 2020, this makes 2024 an extremely unfavorable year for Shang Parker's anti-communist opponents. The only non-communist party, the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, need to add 394 seats to their total 107 seats to win 501 seats, 493 seats if they want to win a supermajority.

### COVID-19 Pandemic and the Communist Party of China

> *Main articles: COVID-19 Cases in Chawosauria, War on Coronavirus, and the 2020-2023 Chawosauria Lockdown*
>
>

   The 2020 COVID-19 global pandemic has shifted the aims of the elections and threatened to scrutinize the Communist Party and its brand. The Communist Party, after supporting China in the previous election in 2019, has now turned on China over the coronavirus pandemic. However, the Communist Party joined Shang Jong Parker to prevent a COVID-19 outbreak in Chawosauria and supported Parker's War on Coronavirus initiatives. The Parker administration became un-nerved by the spread of COVID-19 as they promised, well previously, not to do a lockdown, only to be forced to break that promise and it resulted in Parker having to declare a national emergency, martial law, and the general mobilization of the entire Chawosaurian Imperial Armed Forces to enforce the 2020-2023 Chawosauria Lockdown which began in March 2020 after being ordered by the entire **2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government**, which such protocols were reserved for a potential nuclear holocaust or a zombie apocalypse.

China suffered a decline in global perception for their handling of the COVID-19 prelude, attempting to cover it up and pretend there's nothing to be concerned about, only to be proven horribly wrong as the disease becomes able to escape from China and began infecting other countries in a matter of less than five months. By March 2020, it was widely clear that a pandemic has begun and it will be a brutal one. China and its people more unfairly than the country itself has became the oblivious scapegoat for the pandemic, crippling diplomatic relations and discrimination and violence against Chinese ethnics spread with no fault of their own and equally vulnerable to infection.

### State of the Anti-Communists

   The Capitalists' standing was damaged by the Impeachment of Prime Minister Jonathan Sidney MacCarthy III over allegations that due to his Irish bloodline, he is a Catholic while serving in public office, which it's taboo in Chawosauria due to fears of religious wars seen in the Crusades and culture wars seen in the Western world. The lack of unity among the Capitalist opposition on MacCarthy's impeachment gave the Communist Party enough to impeach him and pressure him to either resign or face conviction in the Senate which would mean forced removal from office. Chawosaurian civilians got angry at anti-impeachment politicians calling for a recall election rather than impeachment proceedings. An unpopular position (84% of the public opposed a recall election), this position made the politicians who called for a recall election vulnerable of losing their seats. Social Democratic leadership refused to have an official position on a recall election due to its massive unpopularity.

Following the Capitalists' loss in the 2019 Chawosaurian elections, there is a fight on rather the Capitalists should go to the center to keep liberals, moderates, and conservatives on the same bandwagon, or go far to the left to try to attract some socialist voters who are already shifting to the Communist Party in support for Shang Parker. The Capitalists are trying to juggle both balls by shifting to the right with Charles Muskie in the 2020 Chawosaurian Opposition leadership election while letting the only capitalist party in legislature: the Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, to shift more to the left as they see fit. Unfortunately, according to many political pundits and experts, that is a strategy bound to fail. Not having a consistent message is what always cost elections. In July 2020, once again, embarrassing chaos erupted in the anti-communist parties of Chawosauria over the vacancy of third party status following the collapse of the Chawosaurian Progressive Party, and the race to replace the Progressives as third party. Talks of a third party selection will began by August 2020, and it is unknown when the party selection will take place. This is the first time in Chawosauria that a party participating in a legislative election dissolved and had to be replaced before that legislative election even started or occurred. On September 15, 2020, it was decided that the Grassroots Democratic People's Green Party of Chawosauria, the Chawosaurian Liberal Democrats, and other parties cannot participate because they did not get 1,000,000 votes due to either sharing an election result with another party (Grassroots Democratic People's Green Party) or never visited (Chawosaurian Liberal Democrats). Jezebel Isela Boleslaus, Sydney Lucas Webster, and Charles Muskie are the only three qualified Prime Ministerial candidates.

### Chawosaurian interest in U.S. Politics

> *Main article; Chawosauria in the 2020 United States Presidential Election*

    Donald Trump lost reelection in the 2020 presidential election in the United States, sparking wide relief among the capitalist opposition to Shang Parker, the capitalists now have the space they needed to run American candidates for the Palace, even give them funding. Trump's electoral downfall was a victory for Chawosaurian American candidates and Chawopolis Palace incumbents from the United States who were worried about not getting funds and endorsements from their respective parties due to discomfort among these parties about supporting Chawosaurian candidates running in Chawosaurian electoral districts located in the United States, a nation being represented by a President seen by many around the world as an idiot, a bigot, and a tyrant.

   The 2020 U.S. presidential election made two parties decide against participating in this legislative election cycle, the Popular Democratic People's National Party feared that their past support for Donald Trump will haunt them after the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol, in the similar fashion George Windsor was haunted by his past support for Tony Blair, the U.K. Prime Minister, whose popularity declined due to his role in the Iraq War, and Blair was still Prime Minister during the 2005 Chawosaurian legislative elections, costing George Windsor 67 seats to Jonathan Lachlan MacAlasdair VIII. Also impacted by the 2020 U.S. presidential election, the Grassroots Democratic People's Green Party of Chawosauria withdrew from the election because of the fear of potential association with the Green Party of the United States after the U.S. Green Party kicked out the Green Party of Alaska for refusing to recognize the party's 2020 Green presidential ticket. This makes the U.S. Green Party look like a cult in the eyes of Chawosaurian voters. But the situation with the U.S. Green Party is less intense than the civil war in the U.S. Republican Party, on May 12, 2021, Republicans in the United States House of Representatives, which its under slim Democratic control, oust third top Republican leader, Liz Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney under U.S. President George W. Bush (a) back in the 2000s. Liz Cheney was removed from leadership role because she proclaimed that the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election was not rigged, thus declaring U.S. President Joe Biden (a) as America's legitimate commander in chief rightfully elected by the American people, and that caused such an uproar within the Republican Party that they flat out removed her, only to infuriate their moderate wing into threatening to form a third party to give those moderate Republicans a choice rather than reluctantly voting for Democrats.

Chawosaurian conservatives were deeply discouraged by the situation with American conservatism, resorting in some Chawo-conservatives to shift slightly to the left, or others just not caring much about politics at all. Progressive conservatives and green conservatives begin fighting within the Popular Democratic People's National Party or wanting to either form their own party or gain influence over the incredibly socialist-leaning but slightly anti-communist Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party. Some look to the Chawosaurian Liberal Democrats and given the widely non-religious culture of Chawosauria, no conservative in Chawosauria is looking up to the Christian Democratic People's Republican Party. In 2021, the Parker administration and the **Chawosaurian government** escalated the Chawo-Uralic War, in a time when it seemed as if the world is ready to move beyond COVID-19 thanks to vaccines. What started the Chawo-Uralic War was the Treaty of Bucharest's establishment of the Ural Wall, an intercontinental border between the Federal Republic of Europe from the westside and the Federal Republic of Asia from the eastside of the border, the Ural Wall is not an actual wall but just a separation barrier; however, Uralic Chawosaurians living in the Ural Mountains which has become part of the Ural Wall felt the socio-economic burden of the Ural Wall, beginning the Uralic Insurgency and the Chawo-Uralic Conflict between the Chawosaurian government and the Uralic locals.

On May 24, 2022, Wendell Rawlings Burton takes over the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party, Burton's election chances of becoming Prime Minister of the Empire of Chawosauria is really not great nor impressive; Chawosauria is a left-wing nation, over 90% of Chawosaurians in polling surveys from 1947 to 2021 identify themselves as left-wing, and under 10% of Chawosaurians don't identify is not left-wing. Wendell Burton's supporters fear being linked to U.S. President Donald Trump due to his controversial presidency and the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, and during the 2019 Chawosaurian direct election, then incumbent Supreme Leader Ekewaka Mikala Kalawai'a made a failed attempt to distance himself from Trump, but he was interfered with his American citizenship, Chawosaurians have dual-citizenships, and Supreme Leader Kalawai'a lost to Shang Jong Parker in a landslide. How should Burton handle the issue of abortion amid the backdrop of the fate of *Roe v. Wade* in the United States, Burton's supporters are sharply divided on how he should handle the issue, pro-lifers urged Burton to take an anti-abortion stance given that he is a Republican and abortion is taboo in Chawosauria, but some suggested neutrality because the overturning of abortion rights in America still doesn't look good for the Chawosaurian right and exploiting the issue for electoral gain is showing signs of backfiring, abortion is a taboo subject in Chawosauria that even making a political issue out of abortion won't be tolerated in Chawosauria. Burton suggested that since abortion is legal in Chawosauria despite being overwhelmingly unpopular, Chawosauria's socialist political higherups should be challenged into passing laws restricting abortion while maintaining neutrality on the issue during the 2024 election campaign.

In the 2022 U.S. midterm elections, the U.S. Democratic Party had secured a strong showing in the elections for a party that controls the White House, throughout U.S. political history, midterm elections are unfriendly turf for the President. Democratic overperformance was aided by youth turnout due to anger over the fall of Roe, and it made it easy for the Democrats to lock down their already control of the U.S. Senate and limited their collapse in the U.S. House of Representatives, forcing Republicans to grapple with the reality of a narrow and pyrrhic victory instead of a landslide one in the U.S. House. Making things worse for Republicans, the Democrats gained in their hand in state governments, crucially Secretaries of State, state offices that preside over elections particularly for President, Democrats won them all and the Governor of Pennsylvania that appoints the Secretary of State, leaving the crucial Great Lakes states secured for Democrats for 2024.

### The Ural Wall and the Chawo-Uralic War

> *Main articles: Ural Wall and the Chawo-Uralic War*
>
>

    The Ural Wall is a continental border that separates two of Chawosauria's six Continental Federal Republics, two of which being the Federal Republic of Europe and the Federal Republic of Asia, as part of the overall borders of the Union of Continental Federal Republics. Though not an actual border wall, it is a mountainous hard border located mainly on the Eurasian mountain range called the Ural Mountains, giving the Ural Wall its name, though the border also stretches below the Ural Mountains to the south, partially separating Russia from Kazakhstan; the Caucasus from Turkmenistan, Iran, and Turkey; and then Turkey from Greece, making it the longest border in the world if the Ural Wall exists in the Outer World. On June 23, 2019, following the successful conclusion of the Chawosaurian Civil War which ended the Chawosaurian Revolution, the Chawosaurian Imperial Government, through the signing of the Treaty of Bucharest, unwittingly established a hard border on Chawosaurian settlements on the Ural Mountains to define the boundary between the Federal Republic of Europe and the Federal Republic of Asia. The Chawosaurian Imperial Government does not track its population, and this new border was so hard that it made it extremely difficult for Chawosaurian communities in the Ural Mountains to live their everyday lives and the border greatly disrupted their economies, resulting in anger which led to the Uralic Insurgency, which left the Chawosaurian government utterly confused that there are citizens living in the Ural Mountains but the government responded with military force anyway instead of diplomatically resolving the conflict, Military action has only made it worse and it led to the outbreak of the disastrous Chawo-Uralic War. For so many years, borders were advertised to Chawosaurians as a public safety necessity and the reputation of borders amongst Chawosaurians is forever damaged by the giant clusterfuck of a border situation in the Ural Mountains, it doesn't help the popularity of borders so much amongst Chawosaurians that the Ural Wall is dividing citizens... of the very same nation... rather than separating citizens from two different countries.

    The Chawosaurian general public turned on borders and strong border politics as a result of the Ural Wall and the Chawo-Uralic War. After a temporary ceasefire of the war ordered by the Chawosaurian government so they can deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, the war was re-escalated to finish the Uralic insurgency and force citizens to move to Siberia to use their land as border property after discovering the against the border after discovering the Caspian-Urals Aid Network, but the government wanted to cover up the truth about why Chawosauria is really fighting the Chawo-Uralic War, so the Chawosaurian government came up with the narrative of the ISIL-Caspian Triangle, accusing the Uralic Insurgents and their Caspian suppliers of aiding and abetting with ISIS forces in the Caucasus to rally support for the war knowing the Chawosaurian public will not support the intension of the war and the Ural border itself would not be very popular. The **2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government** enacted the Caspian Sea Resolution to conscript and mobilize Chawosaurians into military service, however, these actions by the Chawosaurian government only cost Chawosauria further control of the conflict, creating an even messier war and effectively crippled Chawosaurian morale for the war effort and eventually strong border politics when it became clear to the Chawosaurian public that the Ural Wall is the source of the quickly unraveling Chawo-Uralic War. Starting in 2022, Chawosaurians begin to question the purpose of border security and borders generally more than they question the Chawo-Uralic War.

### The possibility of a Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party wave

> *Main articles: Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party and Wendell Rawlings Burton*
>

    Historically, conservatives are catastrophically weak amongst the Chawosaurian electorate since the infamous collapse of conservative party viability in Chawosaurian politics in the 1925 Chawosaurian legislative elections, which conservatives had yet to recover from. During the Cold War, the Chawosaurian electorate moved far to the left in favor of the Chawallian Communist Party due to the Soviet Union's role in finishing World War II in Europe, Chawosaurian hatred for the western world for the colonial age and its influence on Chawosaurian politics at the time, and the role of Christianity (a deeply unpopular religion in Chawosauria) in western world politics, and by 1980, Chawosauria would be a full socialist state as the last conservative party presence faded away after the end of the conservative premiership of Jonathan Dragan Bismarck XVII and his unsuccessful Coalition Party. The Cold War would go on to end following the crumbling of the communist world and the resultant collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, drastically shifting the global balance of power entirely to the western world.

In the 21st century, conservatism made a bad impression on Chawosaurians for its opposition to LGBT rights, their support for the War on Terror which Chawosaurians widely saw as typical western world colonialism, and the tumultuous Presidency of Donald Trump in the United States. The conservative movement in Chawosauria began to make an effort to distance themselves from the traditional conservative movement in the western world, putting distance on themselves from the Christian right, Christian democracy, Trumpism, right-wing populism, Israel, and in some cases, neoliberal and fiscal conservative elements, to instead build a "Chawosauria-based conservatism" based on Chawosaurian cultural values while at the same time ignoring or allow different ideas on how the economy should be managed in Chawosauria, and they have embraced the LGBT community, secular government, labor unions, certain aspects of socialism, Chawosaurian Agrarianism, Chawosauria's pagan past, and strongly denounced Christianity, Judaism, and all religions in general.

The Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party was established in December 2021 to attract anti-socialists who strayed away following the collapse of the anti-communist 24th Chawopolis Palace in the 2019 Chawosaurian elections to the Chawosaurian Communist Party and the resultant survival of the sole anti-communist but moderately socialist Social Democratic Workers' Labour Party, who most folded in favor of the Communist Party's agenda throughout the entire **2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government**. Wendell Rawlings Burton became leader of the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party on May 24, 2022, but his presence at first caused concern, Burton is a member of the U.S. Republican Party, but he didn't vote for Donald Trump in 2016 nor 2020, and Burton is a moderate conservative who accepts the party's strategy for a Chawosaurianized conservatism.

### The fallout of Queen Elizabeth II's death and a subsequent King and Queen of Britain

   Queen Elizabeth II of Britain, who had reigned Britain since 1952 at the time the British Empire had remained, passed away after her 70-year service on the throne. This will result in her eldest son, Charles III, and his second wife, Camilla, will be the King regent and the Queen consort of the United Kingdom.

Chawosauria had a complicated relationship with European monarchies, particularly those in Western Europe, nations with access to the Atlantic Ocean as well as being the ones with the advanced technology, giving them the ability to colonize the new world that was accidentally discovered by the Italian explorer Christopher Columbus in 1492, but European colonialism had took a dark turn when European settlers encounter the western hemisphere's indigenous populations, with the prominent downfall of the Aztecs, which had since made the then Chawalliankalitan Empire to live in fear of being next. That eventually happened when the Chawo-Wolfsberg War broke out in 1861, when the Wolfsberg Empire and their British supporters invaded the Chawalliankalitans and ended the Chawalliankalitan civilization in the 1900s, resulting in the creation of the Empire of Chawosauria and their own Orbis but had to be influenced by British politics. The Wolfsberg Empire attempted to convert Chawosaurians to Christianity but Chawosaurians fiercely resisted often violently, but when the Revolutions of 1917-1923 occurred, Chawosaurians became attracted to socialism due to its anti-religious and anti-colonial appeal, and dramatically changed Chawosaurian politics forever in the landmark 1945 Chawosaurian legislative elections, where the Chawallian Communist Party led by Timothy Max Roosevelt won a landslide majority in the Imperial Assembly of the Chawopolis Palace. The 1945 elections permanently ended British political influence and it spelled the end of the Wolfsberg Empire's Christianization efforts on Chawosaurians, dooming the whole Christian mission. and when the socialists completed their takeover of Chawosauria by 1980, the last Christian missionaries were chased out of Chawosauria and British political influence was already gone, and this is the origin of present day socialist rule of Chawosauria. The Chawallian Communist Party favored the Soviet Union against the western world, which comprised of the veteran colonial powers of western Europe, which opposed communism.

### Rise of Space Exploration in the 2020s

    The 2020s is expected to be the decade where space exploration becomes a human reality, it was first successfully experimented during the Cold War, but Chawosaurians at the time tolerated it. Space exploration has taken a new turn in the early 2020s, with the launching of the Artemis program. Robotic and human astronauts would be taking on space missions and it was announced that space colonialism will be a reality in the 2020s. Space colonization has always been a widely to universal unpopular subject in the Chawosaurian world, and socialism is widely associated with scientific ambition, and that was appealing to Chawosaurians due to fear of religion which relationship with science is known to have been complicated. Chawosaurian anti-socialists have made the constant mistake of condoning religion, which had always alienated Chawosaurians to support socialism even more, so Chawosaurian socialists are weary of making the similar mistake with futuristic science, hoping to dodge backlash from Chawosaurians.

Chawosaurians dislike space colonization and robots because of strong fear and paranoia that they could overpower or corrupt the human race and bring economic inequality. Technology, when becomes robotic, does tent to put people out of work, and moving to space colonies will likely be crazily expensive, meaning only wealthy members of society can afford a home on a space colony and governments will be more attracted to investing into space colonies more than Planet Earth based on economic class lines. The Chawosaurian anti-socialist movement, partly united under the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party led by Wendell Rawlings Burton, see a realigning opportunity to take a stand against space colonization and robotization, which will surely attract working class Chawosaurians, the traditional base of Chawosaurian socialists. Chawosaurian farmers were warned that they will be overtaxed and overworked but underpaid in the future to aid the food supplies of the space exploration effort, and a movement to the right could be foreseen.

### Surging Backlash against the 21st Century

   More older Chawosaurians as well as working class Chawosaurians more generally began to show resentment and disgust with the trend of 21st century culture, Chawosaurians begin to show extremely weary of the trends of fashion, politics, music, technology, and so on and so forth. Chawosaurians feel fundamental displeasure with music trends, as it appears like hip hop is taking over everything and Chawosaurians from the older generations see hip hop as evolved as encouraging money and sex, and Chawosaurian women widely complain that the hip hop industry is spreading misogyny for the way women are displayed in hip hop videos and male rappers repeatedly calling women "shawty", making Chawosaurian women feel resentful towards the hip hop industry, and more older Chawosaurians from across the spectrum, many of whom may have somewhat accepted the musical art of hip hop, begin to complain the hip hop as showing off lifestyle and bragging about it and the women, and younger Chawosaurians begin to adapt, similarly to those from the western world.

Chawosaurians also begin to grow exhausted with fashion trends, not liking how people today dress, talk, dance, and so forth. As technology evolves throughout the century, this causes fear among working class Chawosaurians of what is called "technological unemployment" which is when a worker loses his/her job due to being replaced by technology that can do the work, which is more appealing to corporate higherups because organic workers require pay and robotic workers do not require pay, causing corporations to embrace automation because it makes them richer, but it badly disadvantages lower class people because thanks to automation and technological takeover of the employment sector, poverty will be a permanently generational thing. Because of this, working and employed Chawosaurians deeply fear technological unemployment and automation, making this a serious political issue in Chawosauria that Chawosaurian politicians, call of whom are left-wing, have usually ignored the issue.

Chawosaurians begin to show a surging unwelcoming to smart technology such as smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and their children more obsessive with their technology that it had have an impact on their academic performances, though smart technology have made things easier for teachers, but Chawosaurian parents and legal guardians have grown sick of their children having any access to technology.

   Then finally, another fear regarding technology, technology becoming intelligent and turning on humanity. That fear had been ticking up since the last decade of the 20th century but became only a little noticeable in the 2000s, mostly due to movies and TV shows containing robots such as *Robots* (2005), *Skyland* (series: 2005-2007), *My Life as a Teenage Robot* (series: 2003-2005), and then the movie *I, Robot* (2004), where humanoid robots were created to serve humans, but then they turned on humans and tried to take over the world. All of these movies and TV shows, especially I, Robot, escalated Chawosaurian anxieties of smart or intelligent technology.

When the first smartphones arrived in the late 2000s, Chawosaurians were cautiously welcoming, but many were still not amused with their presence. The popularity of smartphones spread like a virus all over the world, but so has anti-technology sentiment all over Chawosauria, then tablets became a thing, also spreading in popularity but maybe not as much as phones, and smart technology evolved to greater advancement throughout the 2010s, making Chawosaurians incredibly weary of their presence. The internet took over every aspect of technology even those that previously didn't need WIFI, such as TVs as they now became smart TVs.

These Chawosaurian sentiments have attributed to the shock results of the 2018 Age of Smartphone Referendum, ultimately making these issues serious.

Wendell Rawlings Burton and the Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party have planned to take advantage of these issues, they begin to criticize hip hop and pointed out that the Chawosaurian Communist Party abandoned the Social Morality Act of 2020, which sought to ban hip hop nationwide. Burton by 2023 began to make a priority to stop corporations from turning into automation, and made an ambitious promise to penalize corporations for putting workers out of work by replacing them with free labor by technology and robots. The Chawosaurian Revolutionary Party begin to become the only party taking technological unemployment seriously. However, General Secretary Linghu Xiaoliang had been fighting with Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker over the direction of the Chawosaurian Communist Party, Linghu had been promoting communist candidates who hold conservative views against Parker's liberal reforms and many of Linghu's candidates hold anti-modernist views while holding anti-religious views, making some Burton allies nervous. Linghu Communists as they are called, or Linghists, are members of the Chawosaurian Communist Party who are traditional communists, opposition to religion, as well as opposition to modernization, and they are agrarians. Linghu Communists are lining up to challenge Parkerian Communists (communists who are progressive) in the 2023 Chawosaurian Communist Party primaries.

### The Rise of Linghu Communists

    Linghu Xiaoliang, incumbent General Secretary of the Empire of Chawosauria and former Imperial Senator from the Senate District of East Asia, felt alienated by his old friend and Supreme Leader Shang Jong Parker's progressive approach to his communist rule. Parker enhanced a semi direct democracy and strong human rights into the Imperial Constitution of the Empire of Chawosauria in 2022 and 2023. Linghu's version of communism is old school, authoritarianism and only few human rights. Parker was diagnosed with stomach cancer in December 2022 and he received medical attention in early 2023.

### Other Events

The Independents nominated Elmo as their parliamentary leader to draw a line between independence and going by the rules. The Independents justified this joke candidate by saying all parliamentary leaders are jokes and used the nominee of the Youth International Party, known as yippies, of the 1968 U.S. presidential election was a pig named Pigasus to symbolize both Nixon and Humphrey as pro-war pigs during the War in Vietnam. However, this was universally mocked and cast a bad light on the anti-communists. There was division in interpretation of the 2022 French legislative elections, since Chawosaurian politics is becoming more like France's, however unlike Chawosauria, France's legislative elections are inconsistent.

Despite Trump's loss, he insisted that he won despite the obvious victory for Biden, the Trump White House resorted to trying to strip Biden of his victory in order to keep Trump in power, however objectives were never achieved.
* **January 6, 2021**: Democrats swept two deciding U.S. Senate runoff elections in Georgia, consequently winning Democrats control of the U.S. Senate, which delivered Democrats a federal trifecta (control of the White House and both chambers of Congress), which delivered a blow to Republicans who were hoping to use the U.S. Senate as a defensive fort against a Democratic administration had they won at least one Georgia U.S. Senate seat to keep a 51-49 edge. But on the same day, Trump's denialism of his defeat in the 2020 presidential election and attempts to overturn the election results provoked a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol to stop Congress from likely certifying Biden's victory. The insurgency went nowhere and Congress certified Biden as President anyway. Trump was impeached and acquitted again, but with more, bipartisan support for his impeachment and conviction, making the 25th Chawopolis Palace and the overall 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government the first legislative term in which a U.S. President had went through more than one U.S. impeachment process, it is also the first time in Chawosaurian history that a U.S. President was impeached during two back to back Chawopolis Palace parliaments, making Palaces 24 and 25 the firsts to have that happening.

It is rare for a Chawosaurian Prime Minister to serve more than one term, it only happened three times, Schwartz, Bismarck, and MacAlasdair.
* **July 28, 2022**: The Protection of Life Act of 2022 was introduced and proposed to this government amid the backdrop of the aftermath of the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of *Roe v. Wade* in the United States.

* **November 8, 2022**: The United States held midterm elections mainly for the 118th United States Congress. Due to U.S. midterm history and the unfriendly political climate for President Joe Biden, the Republicans were widely expected to easily win the midterms in a landslide, but the election results didn't turned out that way for a typical American midterm election, the Democratic Party of President Joe Biden turned out tobe so competitive that they expanded their control of the U.S. Senate while the Republicans barely won control of the U.S. House of Representatives as a consequence of Democratic overperformance. A testament of Democratic success, they gained ground in state governments across the country and it is rare for a party that controls the White House to gain ground in state governments. The Republicans' lackluster showing in the midterms can be blamed basically on poor candidate quality of Republican candidates and the American general public's disapproval of the Republican Party more generally mainly due to where the party stands on present day domestic issues, especially on abortion after *Roe v. Wade* was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court that year, and there is fair amount support for LGBT rights among Americans despite Republicans opposing such rights.

### Considered for Enactment

* Major Amendment XVI (a proposed constitutional amendment but varying provisions proposed)

### Failed to Enact

* Social Morality Act of 2020 (forgotten about because of the COVID-19 pandemic)

## Controversies

### Chawo-Uralic War and the Ural Wall

The 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government passed the controversial and unpopular Caspian Sea Resolution in response to the Parker administration's narrative that Urali rebels are conspiring with ISIL militias in the Caucasus to overthrow the Chawosaurian government and replace it with an Islamic theocratic government in its place.

### Over-legislating

The 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government has accomplished the highest passage of legislation in Chawosaurian history, but it's divisive.

### Tax Powers

The 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government's passage of new government programs has led to a surge in taxation in the midst of high inflation.

### Sex Scandals

Starting in March 2023, sex scandals begin to ache the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government with revelations that interns and staffers have been having orgies in the Chawopolis Palace basements during the COVID-19 pandemic.

## Popularity, Perception, and Evaluation

The 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government was widely popular in 2020 and 2021 mainly due to its leadership during the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the government's approval ratings collapsed in 2022 due to the Chawo-Uralic War and its conduct of governing by legislating too much in favor of a Supreme Leader which Chawosaurians saw this as giving a Supreme Leader too much power than necessary. In November 2022, the government's approval rating went below 20% for the first time, being at 17% approval by November 2022, highlighting the mass unpopularity of the government.

2023 saw an upswing in the 2020-2024 Chawosaurian Government's popularity, the 2023 Chawopolis Palace Attack on June 11, 2023 had a far lesser-than-expected impact on the parliamentary communists' popularity, perhaps the reason for the 2023 popularity regain was because the 2024 Chawosaurian elections was fastly approaching, and Chawosaurians don't really want to be represented by a conservative parliament headed by a Prime Minister Wendell Rawlings Burton, as well as COVID-19 now a distant memory with Chawosauria successfully leaving the pandemic unscarred, newly nominated Communist candidates successfully distancing themselves from the unpopular Shang Jong Parker, and the fact over 70% employment of Chawosaurians is good enough.
