Confederacy of Independent Nations

The **Confederacy of Independent Nations**, also known as the **Confederacy** or **CIN**, was a short lived nation state in Asia between 2022 and 2024, which was formed from Alex Pandion's Imperial Fraction, Persia and New Libirachi, alongside a group of smaller territories. Ruled over by an elected President, the Confederacy was officially a parliamentary democracy, although the President wielded higher powers than any other democratic world leader of the time. Initially based in the Persian capital of Nupersia, the CIN moved to Dubai in late 2022, where it remained for the rest of its existence. As an alliance between areas and fractions which had ceded from the Asian superpowers (Bovido Has and the Libirachi Empire), the Confederacy was founded in the last months of the Has Wars following the death of Libirachi Empress Laura Fox on May 27th 2022, but remained natural until the end of the wars end, when it declared war on rival fraction Union of Aligned Nations led by the former empress's daughter, Penny Fox. Adopting the Libirachi currency, the CIN made use of regional armies, such as those provided by Grand Moff Alex Pandion and Persian President Almac Docu, to expand their land into Union territory.

As the Has Wars came to a conclusion in July 27, 2022 just two months following the death of Libirachi Empress Laura Fox, the newly formed Confederacy of Independent Nations began making aggressive military movements around the Libirachi boarder, with various provinces like the Locor Republic, Alex Pandion's Imperial Fraction and Ruthenia proclaiming independence in the weeks following Empress Fox I's death, leaving Regent Penny Fox in charge of a crumbling nation whilst Confederate President Almac Docu went on the attack, slating the political systems of the Libirachi Empire. Left with no choice but to form a Union to defend Libirachi sovereignty, Fox rallied together the Russian Federation, Canogally, Isgardia, New Zealand and the Locor Republic to become allies in its fight against the splinter groups that plagued the nation, greatly exaggerating the threat that the Confederacy posed to the other nations in order to gain support.

The subsequent Siege of the Locor Republic was the first battle of the new war and consisted initially of a military expedition into the Locor Republic by forces of the Confederacy of Independent Nations, namely Ruthenia lasting between September 13, 2022 and November 23, 2022, with the intent of blocking off all communications to the nation and causing it to fall to the Confederacy, before Libirachi intervention forced the hand of CIN Grand Marshal Ashton Morre, leading to a full blown invasion of the nation from September 29, 2022. With severe damage inflicted upon the capital of Dushanbe, the Locor governmental functions were eventually moved into their embassy in Beijing following the successful repelling of Confederate forces, although significant civilian casualties meant that the first combat of the Libirachi Civil War (2022 - 24) ended with much bloodshed, and the revelation that not only had former President of Persia and Hǔnluàn terrorist leader Ashton Morre survived the Has Wars, but was leading the Confederate Armed Forces into battle lead to much speculation as to the futuristic and advanced technology that that CIN possessed that had helped Morre survive his attack, with others even pointing out that Morre might have even staged his own death during the Battle for Persia in order to play a major role in the upcoming war, prompting allegations towards Confederate President Almac Docu that he had planned much of the conflict from the start.

Followed shortly by the Invasion of Sicily, penned by the Isgardian Communist League as the Sicilian War of Independence, the Confederacy of Independent Nations and the Isgardian Communist League led an invasion of the island of Sicily in order to attempt to seize the land from the Imperial Republic of Isgardia, only recently under the control of the Nationalist Party fraction led by Royal President Melinia Vicetti. Hot off the heels of the Isgardian Civil War, the island of Sicily had long been a hot-bed for communists and indeed during the war it had been the home of the People's Republic of Italy, a rebel government which had control over the island between 2016 and 2021 until the Nationalist fraction Melinia Vicetti stormed the island and overthrew the PRI. Eager to reclaim his dominion, PRI and ICL General Secretary Giovanni Pozzoli allied himself with the newly formed Confederacy of Independent Nations and devoted himself to the cause in exchange for the CIN liberating his island in their eventual war with the Libirachi Empire and it's allies.

With the outbreak of war in August 2022, the Confederacy began to secretly funnel supplies and military trainers into the island in order to slowly begin giving the Communist League military grade training and the skills required to overthrow the regime on the island. Starting off with an initial bombing attack on the coast of Cefalu on October 20, 2022 which destroyed large parts of the government district, the Communist League under Secretary Pozzoli began a campaign of insurrection against the Isgardian government, whilst the Confederacy of Independent Nations joined in with a naval conquest of the island, blockading Sicily between October 30 and November 27, 2022 whilst Libirachi and Isgardian naval forces led by Admiral Karyn Faro, Major General Fang Torrent and Royal President Melinia Vicetti of Isgardia began to attempt to re-capture the island, although they ultimately failed to liberate the island from the People's Republic of Italy, instead only succeeding in lifting the blockade around the island.

## Government

### President

The Confederacy of Independent Nations had a single Head of State under a written constitution known as the Bylaws of Independence, which vested most power the Separatist Senate in regards to state matters, with only the President being officiator of congressional procedure. However, during the Libirachi Civil War, Docu had been granted to wartime powers by the senate, where he made executive orders in regards to governmental decisions which undermined the democratic process completely and making the senate ineffective.

#### Almac Docu (2022 -)

As the President of Persia following the toppling of Hǔnluàn occupation and President Ashton Morre in 2021, Almac Docu began to rally nations together with the promise of ending the war and abolishing the Libirachi Monarchy once more, although his planned empire only came into fruition with the death of Empress Laura Fox in 2022. In the chaos following her death, Docu rallied disillusioned areas of the empire behind his banner, founding the Confederacy of Independent Nations just weeks afterwards on June 15th, although he refused to participate in the Has Wars; opting to let the remaining Libirachi Empire fight off its foes before launching an assault.

### Cabinet

The Confederate President had a cabinet of senators loyal to the governing party, who are the heads of the essential departments of state. During the formation of the Confederacy of Independent Nations, the cabinet was fully occupied by members of the Persian government, although with the move to Dubai in 2022 the Cabinet diversified to include members from all member nations, including some military officials from the Libirachi fractions.

### Senate

The CIN Parliament, a body of senators oversaw by a chairman called the Congress Leader that dealt with diplomatic and civilian issues in the Confederacy. It was made up of three main political factions, the War, Peace and the Independence Factions. They were all from regions (within member nations) who joined the Confederate cause, including ones that had once been members of the Libirachi Congress that continued to represent their constituents in the Confederacy, and had involvement in public affairs.

## Geography

### Capital City

#### Nupersia

Founded in Nupersia during the fallout from both the Has Wars and the death of Libirachi Empress Laura Fox in May 2022, the Confederacy of Independent Nations based itself in the capital of the founding Persian Republic, where delegates from Persia, various Libirachi fractions and several European nations signed the Bylaws of Independence; establishing Nupersia as a temporary capital of the new Confederacy. Within the city, all major offices of state held their headquarters as well as the base of operations for the Confederate Army and the central banking mechanisms for the new nation state.

#### Dubai

Having expanded its boarders into Europe, the Confederacy Senate held a vote on an act which saw the CIS seat of power moved to the prosperous city state of Dubai after it joined the senate. As a technologically advanced city, Dubai was more than prepared to host the offices of the Confederate Bureaucracy and acted as a business hub for the the nation, boosting the economy and playing host to the Central Banking Group (a banking conglomerate), the city was able to continue investing in futuristic technology.
