Fifth Rosavian Elections

🡰 4th*- November 3rd 2022 - 6th🡲*

## Overview

The Fifth Rosavian Elections were the second Rosavian elections to be held on the day set out by the consitution, the 3rd of every month. The Elections were held only 7 days after the Fourth Election which had been called by Prime Minister Kai after Trumans resignation.

## Background

### Cubs Government

Cubs had won the Fourth election with his reformation of the Rosavian Progression Movement - The RPM, However his government had limited support as soon as it was formed as he had won the election by getting a lack of low places and mostly middle positions whilst the Labour party who had gotten a record 7 first place votes had been held back by also a record of 5 last place votes.

Cubs was able to build a supply and demand agreement with the Labour Party and the Committee on Union and Reform both parties had agreed to this after the Labour party stated they would not join a coalition with Cubs NUM due to their principles of progressivism as the NUM had been widely seen as a more traditionalist party despite their only policies in the election being infrastructure based.

Cubs Government had been critisced for being slow to declare a cabinet and a budget by opposition members but praised by government workers, such as ColonelKai who ran the Gendarmerie at the time who were happy that Cubs government took an immediate intrest in supplying them with orders. Cubs cabinet was released incomplete and was never completed as Cubs never received a reply from Jules who he wished to server as his infrastructure minister leaving him to take on the position during the whole term, Alongside those issues the budget was also critisiced for being too late, being released the day before the fifth election and for giving the finance minister too little money, the Governments policies, or lack of, were also critisiced with them making no laws in their term or making any infastructure, However this has been defended as it was only a very short term.

### Cubs handling of conflict in Valyria

Cubs government had faced similar issues to what Truman had faced in Crestmont but in Valyria with a small terror cell taking control of areas of a specific location and causing havoc for the government. With limited time in power Cubs focused a lot of his attention on to Valyria rather than making policy, with his government not passing any laws that term. Cubs government had oversaw minor fighting in the area of Valyria similar to the minor fighting that had gone on there near the end of Trumans government and then Kais second government, However it would be a protest during Cubs final in-person commanded mission as Prime Minister, leading the Gendarmerie to recover a tank left in Valyria. Peace protesters stormed the Gendarmerie tanks as Valyrian Defence Division soldiers fired on Cubs forces positions forcing them to retreat.

The aftermath of this situation was the Valyrian VAZ party placing a vote of no confidence in the government which would end 2-2 with 5 members of parliament abstaining from the vote. Local police forces in Valyria also responded unfavourably and opposed the army forces protecting the protesters which would contribute to cubs fleeing. The day after this attack a Genderarmie helicopter would be shot down whilst flying past Valyria in an attack by the VDD with Cubs again telling them to retreat and not engage the VDD.
