## History

### Foundations of a First Republic

Originally the Speaker of the Followers' Parliament served as Presiding Officer of Parliament but eventually many in the 2nd Parliament eventually desired to transition towards a Semi-Presidential Republic and so they did with the passage of new legislation incumbent Speaker Ninetails would not be out of a job however with a successful bid at the 2nd Parliament's Presidential Election he would be elected by the legislature to serve as Followerspar's First President.

Many however were not satisfied with an indirect election of this prestigious office and the Young Presidency was quickly amended to provide for direct elections. President NineTails would go on to fully serve his term but with the 1st Adorian Presidential election approaching many would turn their eyes towards the title. Soon it was quickly realized that the election system was FPTP and the next President could potentially be elected with less than 50% of the vote. The Followerspar Presidential Bill which at the time governed Presidential elections would quickly see an amendment to it proposed however any amendment to this bill would have required to have been approved by the Supreme Court which wouldn't be able to be done in time and Arjona would be elected with an abysmal **25.2%**.

In new reform an Exhaustive ballot process was introduced to simulate Ranked Choice voting. In the 2nd Adorian Presidential election this would result in 5 election rounds being held and a President-Elect Acrid. However throughout the exhaustive election monarchist sentiment reached mainstream levels for the first time in Adoria's history. On October 2nd, 2019, Sir Oswald Mosley would become King before the monarchy law was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. President-Elect Acrid officially assumed office on October 5th, 2019. As the Presidency was controlled and founded by laws in an uncodified manner, no amendments were needed to alter its founding documents and First Republic would soon see itself quickly voted out of existence with the **Kingdom of Adoria** officially being declared on October 15th, 2019.

### President in the King's Realm

*Main Article: King of Adoria*

Unarticulated political maneuvering would result in both a Presidency and Monarchy. The Kingship was not legally codified as Head of State and any evidence of the Presidency being formally HoS is unfound. Despite the monarchists winning in their creation of a monarchy they would quickly take a long defensive struggling against their victory being undone. The Presidency would not be at threat of abolition during the Kingdom of Adoria with the monarchy being the more weaker and controversial institution. As 5 rounds of elections was highly long the process would again see change. a French-esque 2-round system would be adopted. Eventually the 3rd Adorian Presidential Election would come around. Johannes and Median would progress to Round 2, however it would be stylized as the 4th Adorian Presidential Election by the election managers. Johannes would merge triumphant as Adoria's 4th President. With the formation of Reform Adoria on November 6th, 2019, Johannes would soon leave the Social Liberal Party to join them. Eventually the Kingdom of Adoria would meet its end on November 16th, 2019. Despite being a highly ceremonial and powerless position would survive to live another day in the **Second Republic**.

### Republic II

In a final victory over the Monarchist movement the Adorian Parliament would pass new legislation formally proclaiming and recognizing the President as Head of State. With Johannes' term formally coming to an end the 5th Adorian Presidential Election would be just around the corner. However the rules would again be changed. The 2-round system would be replaced with a similar 3-round system. With a whopping 15 candidates this would be the most of any Adorian Presidential Election. Ruben, Reeves and Scoops would progress to the 2nd round. Due to Ruben achieving a 50% majority the 3rd Round would not be held. Though being overall a non-interventionalist like all previous presidents, Ruben would be the first Adorian President to push a Presidential agenda and policy.

President Ruben's largest accomplishments would include the abolition of slavery in Adoria, coordinating a referendum on SC reform, formally constituting the President as Commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, and the creation of the Vice Presidency. Ruben would nominate Median to serve as the First Vice President of Adoria, the 12th Parliament would happily consent. However not all would fly well for the Ruben Administration. A bill that would restrict Justices from being Ministers at the same time would be vetoed by Ruben. This would prove controversial and an effort to impeach Ruben would however **fail**. In time the 6th Adorian Presidential Election would soon arrive. Again, the system would be changed. Due to the large amount of candidates in the previous election **10** signatures would now be required to run, and the 2-round system would be restored this time for good. Ruben would be the first president to ever seek re-election, he would run with his First Lady Lori Finn as VP. However the Social Democratic Party had been on a long slow climb skinning Adoria's largest leftwing party, The Labour Alliance by its teeth. The SDP would endorse Sealand and KingSepron's ticket. However when the time came PE06 would be ran by Ruben the primary election manager, this would be met by many with much skepticism and distrust. This would be the only presidential election re-ran due to election fraud. These delays would mean Ruben would get to serve extra time as President to most's discomfort. Too one man this would all be too much and on January 9th, 2020, Cyrill would shoot President Ruben at a rally in the presence of his wife Lori Finn and Chief Justice Hiten. Regardless of these events Ruben would fail to progress to Round 2. Sealand would triumph over ! HookieD officially becoming the SDP's First President, in the middle of the First SDP-Led government coalition and premiership. 9 days after leaving his position of President, Ruben would become both Chief Justice and Defence Minister simultaneously.

The 2nd Republic and 2020 would continue on. The Presidency forever changed would fall into the hands of SDP Ideologue Sealand. During January 2020, gun rights were revised to effectively outlaw private militias. As such the National Revival under the leadership of their Commander Hussar would rebrand into a private security company. Historically disgruntled and dismayed by Hussar's antics, President Sealand would take the initiative of ordering a military strike on the NR's commercial cruisers under the pretense of them actually being warships and weapons of war. It is estimated approximately 2,000 innocent civilians were killed by this strike, Horrified beyond disbelief Sealand's quick and immediate impeachment would roll into action. The 15th Adorian Senate would swiftly impeach Sealand, becoming the first and only impeached President in Adorian History. However the SC Court trial to follow would grant him an even darker fate. Finding him **guilty** of violating Article XXIV of the 2nd Republic Constitution, he would also become the only President to be **convicted**. Sentenced to prison for 3 weeks and barred from the Presidency for life, Sealand would leave his Presidency in ultimate disgrace on February 2nd, 2020.

However Vice President KingSepron had resigned early on in the administration due to declining health. Sealand's subsequent impeachment would mean a constitutional crisis. As the Supreme Court is the Constitution their quick deliberation would result in appointing Reeves to serve as Interim President. And so he did for 3 days.

Reeves' brief administration would serve as the backdrop of the 7th Adorian Presidential Election. Former President NineTails would run under the Labour Alliance. In Round 2 he would beat Theocratic Oath's Mateusz, a stark contrast between a Left Moderate and Christian-right. This would make NineTails the first President to ever win a 2nd presidential term. President NineTails would enjoy high popularity being distant from any controversy. Soon renaming himself *Suki*, he would become a figure both Followerspar OGs and Post-Anarchist Wave Non-OGs could both appreciate. Suki would finish his term with not a single impeachment attempt against him.

Though only spending 3 days as President, Reeves would not be out of the ballpark mounting his own presidential campaign he would run in the 8th Adorian Presidential Election. As a prominent frontrunner he would easily progress to Round 2 against HeyIt'sJoe™. Unorthodoxly this would be the only time in Adorian history that a runoff would be held between candidates both under a Rightwing party name. Emerging victorious Reeves would become the Conservatives' first elected President. Despite being the Face of the Republic, President Reeves would secretly be recruited into the Ordo Aquilae conspiracy becoming an insider to the 2nd Monarchy Movement and Operation Albion. After 4 days of grueling warfare and 5 days of some of Adoria's most consequential negotiations yet, the Imperial Constitution would be adopted on March 25th, 2020, officially bringing an end to the Second Republic, and thusly the Presidency itself. The Emperor and Assembly Speaker would absorb the powers and responsibilities of the now abolished Presidency.
