14th Yokozean National Election

The **14th Yokozean National Election** was held on 26 February 395 to determine the composition of half of all seats of the Yokozean Parliament. Voters elected 19 members to the national legislature utilizing a single transferable vote system, in which voters ranked candidates in order of preference to represent multiple member districts. It was the first national election to use this voting system, with prior elections having utilized a party-list proportional system. Voting was restricted to men aged over 20 who paid at least 18 yen in national taxation. New members were inaugurated on March 5th.

### Background

The election took place following the turbulent events of the Long Winter, during which numerous clashes occurred between anti-government groups and the Yokozean military, under the direction of Prime Minister Kōya Shindō's government. At the request of President Ryōhei Miura, Shingōan and Tsukimotoan soldiers and peacekeepers entered Yokoze and uncovered evidence of wartime atrocities perpetrated by the Yokozean military and the Shindō government. A day after Prime Minister Shindō ordered the military to arrest members of the Supreme Court, President Miura took unprecedented measures to dissolve Parliament and revoke Shindō's position as Prime Minister. An emergency governing council was subsequent formed by former members of Parliament who had not collaborated with Shindō's government.

After nearly a month had passed since the formation of the emergency council, led by Prime Minister Yukihide Ishii, preparations were made for a national election to restore parliament and replace its lost membership. Throughout these preparations, a system was devised in which members of parliament would be elected through alternating elections every three years. In each election, half of all seats in parliament would be up for election using a single transferable vote system. Upon becoming members of parliament, representatives would serve for terms of six years.

### Results

The Concerned Citizens Association increased its seat count to 24, providing it with an absolute majority in parliament and resulting in its leader, Hikonori Yonezu, becoming the next prime minister of Yokoze. The National Party gained 3 seats, making it the second largest party in parliament, albeit only by a narrow margin over other minor parties. The Federalist Coalition made its first national appearance, winning 5 seats across four constituencies. The Union of Taxpayers increased its share of seats by 1, making it the smallest party in parliament.

Due to rulings by the Supreme Court and ongoing legal investigations into Kōya Shindō's government, the Unity Party was prevented from fielding candidates in the election.
Kaldania Maritime Shipping Crisis

The **Kaldania Maritime Shipping Crisis** was a regional incident that occurred on 23 February 391 when the Kaldanian Imperial Government, under the command of Supreme Chancellor Gilbert Janson, ordered the Kaldanian Navy to deny passage to any foreign ships in Kaldanian maritime territory. The crisis centered on the restriction of sea travel and trade across northern Kaldania in the Bay of Ostwald and in southern Kaldania in the Straight of Südkap.

The orders initially prevented primarily Shingōan and Tsukimotoan trade ships from traveling through the frequently-used Nordostwald Passage, thus redirecting ships northwards to the Bay of Ikeda and the Wakuya-Gijang Passage. On February 26th, the League of Sovereign States International Court ruled that the blockade could only be enforced within Kaldanian maritime territory, and thus, a narrow passage for ships was available in the Nordostwald Passage. Blockades in the Straight of Südkap, however, were allowed by the LSS to remain, closing access to Yokoze from the East Tōkai Sea. Consequently, the Yokozean economy saw drops in productivity and all foreign shipments were made by land.

The Central Tōkai Union's Parliament passed a motion condemning the blockade and government officials from Shingō, Tsukimoto, and Yokoze heavily criticized the orders. Shingōan Prime Minister Kyō Morikawa described it as "a needless escalation of tensions," while Tsukimotoan President An Sung-min stated that the move was "indicative of the Kaldanian government's insecurity and selfishness." Yokozean Minister of War and Defense Kiyoshige Taira made a public announcement on March 1st in which he promised retribution for the blockade and said that "the Kaldanians will feel the consequences of this policy in due time."

Supreme Chancellor Gilbert Janson countered criticisms by stating that "Kaldania [was] simply exercising its fundamental rights as a sovereign nation," and that the country "[could not] sit by and watch its territory be used to strengthen potentially-dangerous states."
Frontier Ankika

**Frontier Ankika** was an ultranationalist political party in the Independent State of Ankika. The party functioned as a broad, anti-elitist, populist movement with no single guiding philosophy or ideology. Since its creation, it essentially acted as a catch-all party for those discontented with the direction of the Nationalist Party. Generally, Frontier Ankika promoted the ideas and policies of populism, national cultural unity, anti-capitalism, anti-syndicalism, and militarism.

The party was formed in 374 G.E. in the aftermath of the Nationalist Party's primary election, in which Zirak Kano won the Nationalist Party's nomination for presidential candidate. This turn of events angered groups of ultranationalists and populists in the party, many of whom had hoped that Hinav Bozori would win the nomination. Bozori and his supporters subsequently founded Frontier Ankika, which led some former members of the Nationalist Party to defect and join the new group.

Frontier Ankika managed to win two seats in the National Senate after elections were held on 22 November 376. Other parties and party leaders in the Senate have expressed great animosity towards Frontier Ankika and its members, and the party was formally denounced by the Senate in 377 G.E.
List of chancellors of Kaldania

The Chancellor of Kaldania is the head of the Kaldanian government and the commander in chief of the Kaldanian Armed Forces. The chancellor is the chief executive of the National Cabinet and heads the executive branch. Prior to 390, the Chancellor served a term of roughly 6 years in office. This is a list of the chancellors of Kaldania, including Franz Kohler, who was the final Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Kreiland before its reformation into the Empire of Kaldania.

The current officeholder is Martin Rüddel, who became Chancellor on 19 February 393 after the death of Gilbert Janson, the former Chancellor. Under Janson, national elections were abolished and opposition parties were fully outlawed. Additionally, he had been declared "Supreme Chancellor for life" on 8 October 392, and on 11 May 390 he had named Martin Rüddel as his desired successor. The final election for members of the National Legislative Assembly, and by extent the chancellor, was the 386 Kaldanian National Election. In 392, the national government announced that no future elections would be scheduled without the consent of the Supreme Chancellor.

While the Chancellor is technically second in rank to the Emperor of Kaldania, the Emperor's powers have since been reduced to that of a figurehead. From 26 February to 10 March 374, anti-monarchist soldiers and members of the Kaldanian government arrested all pro-monarchy officials and politicians. Additionally, the soldiers, who were directed by Gilbert Janson and his supporters, raided the Imperial Household and detained Philipp von Brandt II, the heir apparent to the throne since his father's death on February 26th. The Kaldanian government subsequently passed a series of laws which drastically limited the powers of the Emperor and concentrated authority within the Chancellor.

*Note: The term of office for Franz Kohler includes his period of leadership prior to the reformation of the Federal Republic of Kreiland into the Empire of Kaldania.*
61st Tsukimotoan National Election

The **61st Tsukimotoan National Election** was held on 19 April 379 to determine the composition of the Congress of the Republic of Tsukimoto. Voters elected 50 members to the national legislature, 15 from single-member electorates and 35 from closed party lists. Voting was restricted to men above the age of 22 who fulfilled property requirements. Official results from the election were released on the following day.

The election resulted in the Solidarity Party receiving a plurality in Congress with 22 seats, marking the first national election victory for an opposition party in 75 years. Nam Hyeon-woo, who previously served as the Leader of the Opposition in Congress, was subsequently elected as President of Tsukimoto. Due to no party receiving an outright majority in the election, the Solidarity Party announced that it would "work with other parties on a case-by-case basis to pass legislation."

The election came as result of Congress's vote to dissolve itself shortly after Rang Dak-ho replaced An Sung-min as President. Rang, who was known for his staunchly conservative views, was vocal in his unwillingness to compromise on his budget plan, leading to a Congressional deadlock. Rang faced many additional issues within his own party, as he had gained infamy amongst some members for his decision to not hold a party leadership election. Instead, Rang insisted that he assume the duty of party leader, and he was said to have strongly coerced members of Congress to vote for him as President. Consequently, Congress's approval of Rang drastically decreased, and even some members of his party had pressured him to resign. Following the vote, President Rang was given 10 days to call a general election, and polls during this period pointed to a defeat for the Constitutional Democracy Party.

Throughout the short campaigning period and the months that preceded Congress's vote to dissolve itself, opposition leader Nam Hyeon-woo emerged as a national figure and gained a significant amount of popularity among voters for his criticisms of Rang and the incumbent government. Nam announced his candidacy for President on April 8th, the same day as Congress's vote to dissolve itself. He subsequently advertised himself in his campaign as a "moderate progressive" who was "willing to compromise for the greater good of the country."
Ma Kasi

**Ma Kasi** is a town situated on the easternmost island of the Chiefdom of Ma Telan. The island is located in the southeastern region of the East Tōkai Sea and is linked to sea transport routes by its dockyard. The primary attraction found in the town is Ma Kasi Tower, which is situated on top of an elevated portion of the island. The town is relatively self-sufficient, as its climate has facilitated the process of cultivating and producing food and other agricultural goods. Ma Kasi's primary export is sugar cane, which is one of the most commonly grown crops on the island.

### History:

The island is believed to have been first inhabited by the Kasi tribe around 200 B.G.E., which has since remained the dominant ethnic and cultural group of the island. It is thought that the inhabitants of the island experienced little to no contact with foreign peoples or nations throughout the centuries following their arrival. The few interactions that did occur (prior to the island's incorporation into Ma Telan) were quite brief. Such interactions are detailed as follows:

In 98 G.E., merchants from the nearby Republic of Emelad traded with the island's inhabitants. Various tools such as maps and compasses were sold in exchange for sugar cane; however, further trade attempts were unsuccessful.

In 361 G.E., representatives of other tribes from neighboring islands met with Ma Kasi's inhabitants to propose a union between the islands of the region. These talks saw some success; however, concrete progress would not be achieved until diplomats from the Imperial Republic of Shingō arrived in 363 G.E.

In 364 G.E., the island was incorporated into the newly formed nation of Ma Telan.

### Etymology:

The name Ma Kasi was given to the island in reference to its inhabitants who were members of the Kasi tribe. The word "kasi" roughly translates to plant, leaf, or tree and the preceding word "ma" was added to the name to indicate that it refers to a specific land.
Recovery Association

The **Recovery Association** (Shingōan: 快復党, *Kaifuku-kai*) was a political party in the Republic of Shingō. It had been described as a populist group by its members and received most of its support from rural towns in Abira, Hiraya, and Nishikado. Party leader Takeshi Asayama had publicly advocated for agrarian socialism and greater autonomy for townships. Additionally, members of the party called for the national government to implement a system of social security. The party was credited with popularizing the debate over diamond-backed currency, as many within the Recovery Association had championed the cause of implementing fiat money (hard currency not backed by diamond or any other mineral).

The party was founded near the beginning of the 391 Tōkai Recession in July 391 G.E., less than six months before the 77th Shingōan National Election in which it won 5 seats in the National Parliament. It has since operated in a coalition government with the Reform Party throughout the prime ministership of Shōgo Kobayashi.

Following the party's poor performance in the 78th National Election, in which it lost all 5 of its seats in parliament, the party was dissolved and its members joined other political groups.
Nishi-Chukyo

*This article is about Nishi-Chukyo or West Chukyo. For the capital of the Imperial Republic of Shingō, see Chukyo. For East Chukyo, see Higashi-Chukyo.*

**Nishi-Chukyo** (西中京, *Nishi-Chūkyō*), also referred to as **West Chukyo**, is a large city in central Shingō, and the largest city in Nishikado prefecture. The city is situated along the southeastern coast of the Nishikado Islands and is connected heavily via infrastructure, culture, and architecture to the neighboring city of Chukyo. The city hosts several notable attractions, including the Second Tōkai War Memorial, the Shingō Museum of Art and History, the Nishi-Chukyo Speardash Field, and the prestigious University of Chukyo. Additionally, the city hosts the embassies of several countries, including Yokoze and Rösdal.

### History:

The area currently occupied by Nishi-Chukyo remained largely undeveloped and uninhabited throughout much of its history. This is due largely to the fact that the area is primarily covered by desert and was not ideal for farming or settling. Very small hamlets were established around 20 B.G.E. when the area was incorporated into the Kingdom of Wei.

During the early years of the Three Decades War, which lasted from 58 to 87 G.E., the area was the site of several battles between Weian forces and invading troops of the Kingdom of Windsor. However, in the periods following the end of the war, the area remained largely undeveloped.

The area saw a sudden and drastic increase in development in 362 G.E., when the continued expansion of the Shingōan capital of Chukyo led to infrastructure and buildings being built. While this development was initially limited to government buildings and small houses, construction would gradually shift towards more expensive housing, retail, and other amenities. This sudden influx in residents and development spurred much controversy throughout the area, as previous inhabitants began to be driven out by increases in prices for housing, goods, and other services. Additionally, the government of Nishikado prefecture underwent much turmoil as representatives from the ethnically Shingōan north and ethnically Weian south engaged in fierce debates over the influx of ethnically Shingōan settlers from Chukyo to the area. In response to the decision of the prefectural government (which was led by the Liberty Party) to allow the development, many ethnic Weians in the south of the prefecture broke away to form their own political party called the Weian Interest Party.

While tensions have generally subsided in the years following the sudden growth of the city, protests and demonstrations by ethnic Weians in the city are still a relatively common occurrence. Many in both the prefectural and national government have criticized the development of the city, highlighting the disparities in income, development, and infrastructure between Nishi-Chukyo and the neighboring Weian city of Dalang.

### Etymology:

The name Nishi-Chukyo (西中京) simply translates to "West Chukyo" and served as the *de facto* name of the city until 369 G.E., when the prefectural government designated the area as an independent city and made its name official.
70th Shingōan National Election

The **70th Shingōan National Election** took place on 1 December 366 to determine the membership of the Parliament of the Imperial Republic of Shingō. Voters elected 45 members to the national legislature from single-member constituencies. Voting was restricted to men over the age of 25 who fulfilled property requirements and paid at least 20 yen in national taxation annually. Results from the election were released after twelve days.

After serving an unprecedented 4 terms and nearly 16 years as prime minister, Hikaru Nakajima announced that he would not seek another term in office. The Liberty Party subsequently nominated Haruto Aoki, a senior representative from Shinkō, as its new leader. While Nakajima and the Liberty Party had made several notable accomplishments in office, such as ending the Great Reclamation War, forming the Central Tōkai Union, and pioneering LSS recognition of Ma Telan, political analysts noted that there was a public desire for a change in government after such a long period of Liberty Party rule.

The Conservative Party, the primary opposition, had nominated Hiroki Mori as its leader and candidate for prime minister. Mori was described by journalists as a "bold yet controversial pick," as he had served as Minister of Defense under Prime Minister Kōsuke Yoshida, who spearheaded Shingōan involvement in the Great Reclamation War. Mori was staunchly pro-military and stated that the country needed stronger foreign policy, famously calling for troops to be stationed in areas that were not officially part of Shingō.

In the election, the Conservative Party won 24 seats, providing it with a majority government and thus ensuring that Hiroki Mori would become the next prime minister. It was the Conservative Party's first ever victory in a national election. The Liberty Party saw a drop of 2 seats, while the Workers Party lost 3 seats. The Shingō Independence Party, which had been created in 365 by Tōru Okayama who defected from the Conservative Party, lost its only seat which had been held by Okayama.
List of presidents of Tsukimoto

The President of Tsukimoto is the chief of the executive branch of the government of Tsukimoto and the leader of the cabinet of Tsukimoto. This is a list of presidents of Tsukimoto, from when the first president, Kurou Otoharada, took office in 135 G.E., until the present day. The office is currently held by Han Yong-jin of the Constitutional Democracy Party.

The position of President has also occasionally been referred as the "Prime Minister," as the powers and manner of election of the office is similar to that of prime ministers in other countries. Prior to 191 G.E., the President was referred to as the "Head Councilman," as he was the appointed head of the "National Council," now known as the Congress.

Prior to the democratic reforms which followed the conclusion of the Tsukimotoan Revolution in 266 G.E., ethnic Tsukimotoans were prevented from running for high-ranking government positions. Consequently, all presidents prior to these reforms were ethnically Shingōan and often members of the elitist syndicate known as the *Moriguchi*. The murder of Chang Taek-sang, the governor of the province of Gijang and a candidate for president in the upcoming 267 G.E. election, would serve as the impetus for this revolution and the reforms which followed it.

"Government" refers to the makeup of the cabinet, whose membership is appointed by the president. While some presidents do not alter the makeup of their cabinet throughout the entirety of their time in office, it is a common practice for prime ministers to alter their cabinet upon entering into an additional term in office. Cabinet iterations are marked with the name of the president and their number. Presidents who serve non-consecutive terms are counted as separate numbers.
Koide Cabinet

The **Koide Cabinet** was the 1st publicly elected Government of the Empire of Shingō that presided during the first and second sessions of Parliament. It was sworn in on 30 July 135 following the First National Election and dismissed on 7 January 143 when Akihiko Fukuda became the second prime minister of Shingō. It was succeeded by the First Fukuda Cabinet. Led by Prime Minister Sōsuke Koide, it was the only cabinet comprised of unaffiliated Ministers of State. Additionally, it was the smallest ever cabinet in Shingōan history, with only four members aside from the prime minister.
National Unity Party

The **National Unity Party** (Shingōan: 統一党, *Tōitsutō*) was a short-lived political party in the Imperial Republic of Shingō that lasted from 344 until late 347 G.E. The party was formed by the unification of the Justice Party and the Liberty Party, which both sought to oppose the pro-war Innovation Party. Its platform was centered on the opposition to renewed military conflict with the Empire of Kaldania.

The party had control over parliament starting in 344 until it lost power in 347 when the Innovation Party gained a plurality of seats and Kōsuke Yoshida became prime minister. Following the outbreak of the Great Reclamation War the same year, the party collapsed. The only prime minister to serve as a member of the National Unity Party was Kōji Fujioka, who had previously served the office as a member of the Justice Party.
Kingdoms of Senam

The **Kingdoms of Senam** may refer to various kingdoms that existed along the western coast of the Agosian continent from 398 to 9 B.G.E. Throughout part of this period, Senam was divided between two separate kingdoms, commonly referred to as North Senam and South Senam. The Kingdoms of Senam are commonly thought of as the predecessor nations to the modern Empire of Senam.
Duchy of Nadal

Flag of Nadal

The **Duchy of Nadal** is a vassal state of the Kingdom of Rösdal. It is led by members of the Rösdalan Royal Family and members of its government are required to take oaths of loyalty to the King of Rösdal. The state was officially proclaimed on 3 August 391 G.E. in the aftermath of the Rösdal-Senam War, in which the Kingdom of Rösdal successfully annexed Senamic-claimed territories in northern Agosia.

The capital of Nadal is located in the city of Ezeren, which hosts the Royal Palce of Nadal as well as the state's regional bank. The city only contains the embassy of one country, Rösdal, as its sovereignty has not been recognized by any other nation.

## Government

Unlike the King of Rösdal, members of the Royal Family exercise significant control over social and governmental affairs in the Duchy of Nadal. The state is an absolute monarchy, not a constitutional one, as its leaders are not required to abide by the rules established by the constitution of Rösdal.
Ankikan Occupation Crisis

The **Ankikan Occupation Crisis** was a period that lasted from 11 August to 17 September 292 G.E. Following the conclusion of the Great Tōkai War in 273 G.E., troops from the Queendom of Ankika were forced to withdraw from all conquered territories, including the Yokoze region. In August 292, however, generals of the newly-formed State of Ankika disobeyed the peace terms of the war by ordering their troops to occupy several areas in the west of the Yokoze region. The Ankikan national government ordered these troops to withdraw but these orders were ignored and the troops remained in the area for over a month. The troops were eventually forced to withdraw on September 16th after being defeated by joint Shingō-Yokoze forces in a brief skirmish.

The occupation was a major factor in the decision of Yokozean tribes to unite and form the First Yokoze Confederation, the predecessor nation to the modern Yokoze Confederation. The Imperial Republic of Shingō sent two volunteer brigades to aid Yokozean forces that arrived in the area on September 14th. Two days later, they participated in a minor battle with Ankikan forces, in which Yokozean troops were victorious. The crisis officially ended on September 17th when the Ankikan government officially recognized the sovereignty of the First Yokoze Confederation.
List of presidents of Ankika

The president of the Independent State of Ankika is the head of state and head of government, elected directly by the people to a single five-year term via popular vote. Elections for the position of president consist of two rounds in which the two candidates with the highest share of the vote in the first round respectively advance to face off in the second round. The office holder leads the executive branch of the federal government and is the commander-in-chief of the Ankikan military. The current president of Ankika is Avinen Kizama of the Nationalist Party.

This list only includes presidents of modern Ankika (after the conclusion of the Great Reclamation War in 351 G.E.) and leaders of the Ankikan State and the Ankika Commissariat are not included.

The first president of modern Ankika served a term of 13 years and was the "Acting President" throughout this period, as the rules and regulations of the presidential office had not yet been codified. The first modern president to be elected by the people of Ankika was Iokonari Nabika.
Ikerei

**Ikerei** (Shingōan: 池霊), also known as **Pond Spirits**, are spirits in Shingōan folklore believed to inhabit ponds. Not much is truly known about the Ikerei and their intentions, however, these spirits are often mentioned in mythical tales and stories. Some consider the Ikerei to be benevolent kami, while others believe them to be yōkai. Most stories describe the spirits as having no physical form, and the only supposed way to recognize the presence of Ikerei is by seeing a small pond with a single, red fish. Information regarding these spirits is often inconsistent, as some claim that they bring good luck, while others say that they will play tricks and pranks on travelers.

There is a Kamitomo shrine located in Abira prefecture in the Imperial Republic of Shingō that is dedicated to Ikerei (pictured in top right). The shrine is no longer managed by a priest, and thus, there has since been a lack of consensus regarding its exact details and what is enshrined within it. Some believe that Ikerei are enshrined within it, thus classifying them as kami; however, others believe that the shrine simply shares a name with them.
60th Tsukimotoan National Election

The **60th Tsukimotoan National Election** was held on 29 November 376 to determine the composition of the Congress of the Republic of Tsukimoto. Voters elected 50 members to the national legislature, 15 from single-member electorates and 35 from closed party lists. It was the first national election to utilize a mixed-member proportional representation system. Voting was restricted to men above the age of 22 who fulfilled property requirements. Official results from the election were released on the following day.

Prior to the election, the Constitutional Democracy Party, led by An Sung-min (who assumed the position of President following Kim Woo-jin's resignation in January 373) had led a majority government, holding 29 seats in Congress. By the time of the election, the party had been in control of the legislature for nearly 70 years (since 308 G.E.) and many party officials expressed concerns over perceived voter dissatisfaction with the status quo. The main opposition parties to the Constitutional Democracy government were the Solidarity Party (the official opposition), the Labor Party, and the National Party.

The Constitutional Democracy Party won a plurality of seats but lost its outright majority. It would now need the support of the Libertarian Party, who increased their seat count by 3, to pass legislation. The Solidarity Party made notable gains, winning 4 additional seats, but was still many seats behind the ruling government. Much of these Solidarity gains came at the expense of the Constitutional Democracy Party, but some seats were also taken from the Minority Interest Party, who suffered a drop in popularity after a number of corruption scandals were revealed.

The election resulted in An Sung-min being elected to his first full-term as President. While the Constitutional Democracy Party won 25 total seats from the election, 2 of these seats were occupied by the Speaker and Deputy Speaker of Congress, who both typically refrain from engaging in partisan debates and votes. Thus, the Constitutional Democracy Party formed a ruling coalition with the Libertarian Party.
380 Kaldanian National Election

The **380 Kaldanian National Election** was held in the Empire of Kaldania on 14 October 380 to determine the composition of the Kaldanian Landtag's lower house, known as the National Legislative Assembly. All 40 seats in the assembly were open for the election, but only 5 of them were contested by opposition candidates. Only permitted voters (those within a constituency given authorization to vote by the government) were allowed to participate in the election. The League of Sovereign States passed a resolution condemning Kaldania's lack of democracy 3 days after the election. All opposition political parties were forbidden by the government to participate in the election, and only parties allied to the National Union Party were permitted to run for certain seats.
The National Union Party — the party of incumbent Supreme Chancellor Gilbert Janson — maintained its large majority of seats, which led to Janson's subsequent re-election. The election saw no changes in the seat counts of any party, and the composition of the lower house remained the same in terms of party presence. The only changes that occurred were instances of new members replacing older members of the same party.
Han Yong-jin

> *In this Tsukimotoan name, the family name is Han.*
>
>

**Han Yong-jin** (한용진; born 5 September 344) is a Tsukimotoan politician and former army junior officer who has been serving as the 27th and current president of Tsukimoto since 392. He is also currently serving as the leader of the Constitutional Democracy Party, one of the two largest political parties in Tsukimoto. Han assumed the office of president following the turbulent events of the 392 Tsukimotoan Depression and the Tsukimotoan Capitol Bombing, during which several bombs detonated by anti government conspirators caused the deaths of over half of all members of Congress, including then-president Jeon Do-hyun. The surviving members of Congress subsequently held an emergency meeting in which they elected Han as the next president of Tsukimoto. Prior to assuming the office of president, Han served as the Shadow Minister of Foreign Affairs in the shadow cabinet of Han Jong-woo, who was the leader of the CDP at the time.

Much of Han's first and second term was devoted toward pursuing victory in the Tsukimotoan Civil War, which took place during two distinct periods. The first phase lasted from April 11th to December 28th, 392 while the second phase lasted from January 14th to March 9th, 395. He presided over the CDP's significant electoral victory in the 65th National Election, in which the party increased its seat count by 11 and obtained an absolute majority in Congress.

On 20 March 395, Han received the Order of National Honor, the highest political/military award in the nation presented by Congress for "outstanding and unmatched service to preserve the dignity, integrity, and sanctity of the nation." He received the award for his leadership throughout the Tsukimotoan Civil War, and he is the only president or political figure to have received the Order whilst in office.

## Early Life & Career

Han was born on 5 September 344 in northwestern Ikeda. His father, Han Sang-hoon was a senior officer in the Tsukimotoan Republican Army. As a youth, Han joined the Noble Society Movement, a Tsukimotoan nationalist group that made its presence known across several major cities by organizing demonstrations and rallies.

In 378 at the age of 18, he joined the military and spent the next several years rising through its ranks. Throughout this period of military service, Han also attended and received a degree from the Tsukimotoan Military Academy. In 388, Han was promoted to the position of junior officer in the Tsukimotoan Army. One year later at the age of 44, he retired from the military and began his career in politics by becoming a member of the Ikeda city council. The following year, he became a member of Congress after running and winning a list-seat in Wakuya province.
Constitutional Democracy Party

The **Constitutional Democracy Party** is a political party in the Republic of Tsukimoto. The party is one of the two largest parties in Tsukimoto, with the other being their primary rivals, the Solidarity Party. The Constitutional Democracy Party operates under the principles of low taxes on businesses, continued investment in the military, social security, and export-based economic growth. Most members of the party have expressed broadly conservative social views and have opposed attempts to implement affirmative action programs. After the Tsukimotoan Revolution, the party exerted nearly uncontested control over the National Congress until the 61st Tsukimotoan National Election, in which Nam Hyeon-woo of the Solidarity Party revitalized opposition movements to the CDP. Still, the vast majority of post-revolution Tsukimotoan Presidents have been members of the Constitutional Democracy Party. The leader of the party, Han Yong-jin, is the current president of Tsukimoto.

The Constitutional Democracy Party was founded in 266 G.E. by a group of ethnically-Tsukimotoan reformers who were heavily connected to the Tsukimotoan Revolution. At the time of its creation, the party espoused the principles of liberalism and universal suffrage, and was committed towards increasing the political power and influence of ethnic Tsukimotoans and other minority groups that had been oppressed by the ethnically Shingōan elite. The party also championed the creation of a new, more democratic constitution inspired by the newly created constitution in the Republic of Shingō.

The **Empire of Shingō**, also referred to as the **Greater Shingō Empire**, (Shingōan: 大新郷帝国 *Dai Shingō Teikoku*) was the period of the Shingō nation-state from the unification of Nishikado tribes in 1 G.E. until 183 G.E., when all governmental powers of the Imperial Family were officially abolished. At its peak, it encompassed the regions of modern-day Chūō prefecture, Hanaoka prefecture, Ōyama prefecture, the upper half of Nishikado prefecture, as well as the Tsukimotoan Islands. The capital city of the Empire was the city of Chukyo, with the spiritual capital and residence of the Imperial Family located in the city of Ōyama.

Throughout the period of its existence, the Empire of Shingō would achieve several large military successes, the most notable of which would occur during the Three Decades' War.

### Government

Prior to the introduction of democratic reforms implemented in 135 G.E., the political system of the Empire was an absolute monarchy, in which the Imperial Family had full control over the nation's affairs. During this period, a national assembly known as the "Governing Council" existed and was tasked with the day-to-day running of the government. This council was not democratically-elected and consisted of high-ranking priests, members of the aristocracy, military leaders, and members of the Imperial Family, all of whom had to be appointed by the Emperor to serve on the council. The Governing Council was headed by the Imperial Chancellor, who was still subordinate to, and serving at the behest of, the Emperor.

### Reforms

The year 135 reforms, which were motivated by the Tsukimotoan Independence War as well as widespread domestic protests, decentralized political power by limiting the authority of the Emperor and elevating the positions of regional bureaucrats and lords. After this point, the power and role of the Emperor in Shingōan society and politics gradually diminished until 183, when the power of the Emperor was reduced to a figurehead. This date is generally recognized as the point at which the Empire of Shingō was transformed into the Imperial Republic of Shingō.
Kosaka

**Kosaka** (小坂村, *Kosaka-mura*) is a small, island village located in Ōyama prefecture in the Imperial Republic of Shingō. The village is considered by many inhabitants of the local area to be an extension of the greater city of Ōyama, and Kosaka spent many years of its existence under the jurisdiction of the Ōyama city government.

The village is believed to have been founded and settled during the same period as Ōyama city, as historical artifacts suggest that both settlements first appeared around 20 B.G.E.

The name Kosaka (小坂) contains the characters "small" and "hill" in reference to the island village's geographical features.
Ganam

**Ganam** (가남읍, *Ganam-eub*) is the capital city of Jinan province, an administrative region in the Republic of Tsukimoto. The city hosts Jinan's legislative assembly, its regional courts, and several other government institutions. It is the largest city in the province by population and total land area, and it serves as the headquarters for several regional businesses.
Krun Civilization

The **Krun Civilization** was an ancient agricultural nation that existed from 387 B.G.E. until its collapse in 150 B.G.E. The civilization is documented to have controlled the majority of what is now the northern coast of Kaungkinmyay, along Nan Thar Bay. The Krun are believed to have interacted and traded with neighboring civilizations such as those found in modern-day Angelica and the Weian region of Shingō. Consequently, remaining artifacts from the Krun Civilization suggest that aspects of these neighboring civilizations were combined with the Krun's native traditions to create a unique form of culture and architecture. In 143 B.G.E., 7 years after the collapse of the Krun Civilization, the regions of the former civilization were annexed into the newly-proclaimed Kingdom of Wei.
1st Windsoran Presidential Election

The **1st Windsoran Presidential Election** took place on 14 February 375 in the Kingdom of Windsor. The election was the first in the history of the nation and came as a result of the Windsoran Revolution, a large-scale social and political movement that sparked several major governmental reforms.

Nicholas Stevens, a popular figure during the revolution who had called for democratic reforms, was elected as the first president of Windsor. He won 64% of the popular vote, vastly outperforming all other candidates in the election. Andrew Brooks of the Monarchist Party came in second place with 16.6%, and he was closely followed by James Sousa of the Revolutionary Bloc who received 15.2%.
Forward Party

The **Forward Party** was a political party in the Republic of Tsukimoto that existed from 218 G.E. until its dissolution in 230 G.E. The party operated in opposition to both the Union Party and the Integrity Party. The party was in control of Congress for a total of 8 years throughout its existence, which occurred during the two-term Presidency of Ietaka Saitō.

The party was formed by a breakaway faction of the Union Party which opposed its nomination of Saburō Kuronuma as party leader and President. Members of the Forward Party characterized Kuronuma as out of touch with general affairs and incompetent in matters relating to the economy. Given that Kuronuma was the son of former President Daiki Kuronuma, public sentiment grew concerning nepotism and elitism. The Forward Party experienced a major increase in popularity following the Famine of 218 G.E., in which the government's decision not to aid farmers arguably led to massive grain and food shortages.

The Forward Party lost much of its public support during the second term of President Ietaka Saitō who, despite promising to never make deals with the *Moriguchi*, was found to have accepted bribes from *Moriguchi*-affiliated officials. In response to the scandal, many members of the party would defect to the newly-created Integrity Party, which branded itself as an honest party free of corruption.
6th Senate Election of Ankika

The **6th Senate Election of Ankika** was held on 20 November 379 to determine the composition of the Senate of the Independent State of Ankika.

Voters elected candidates to serve as representatives of each of the nation's constituencies. These elections utilized a first-past-the-post voting system, meaning that the candidate who received a plurality of votes within a given constituency would be elected as representatives of that constituency. All 35 seats of the National Senate were up for election and the Free Democratic Party was projected to lose its majority of seats due to the unemployment crisis which occurred just one month prior to the election.

In the election, the Nationalist Party won 14 seats, providing them with a plurality, but not a majority in the Senate. This seat increase came primarily at the expense of the opposing Free Democratic Party, that lost 8 seats. After the election, the Nationalist Party stated that it would be willing to work with the Central Unionist Coalition to pass legislation. Sinoka Vioba was subsequently appointed by the new Senate to another term as Speaker.
Pagalha Clique

Flag of Pagalha Clique

The **Pagalha Clique** is the base of operations for Ketmani Sirafa — one of the most powerful warlords on the Agosian continent — and his army. The Clique is located in the Pagalha Region, sometimes translated literally as the "Pristine Fields Region".

The Pagalha Clique is not recognized by the League of Sovereign States as a sovereign country and has only received a guarantee of sovereignty from the Empire of Kaldania.

It has no official capital city, however, the town of Girkenala functions as the de facto capital of the Clique, as it contains the supreme leader's palace as well as the supreme headquarters of the military.

## History

The Pagalha Clique was officially formed on 9 December 376 G.E. when Ketmani Alamosi proclaimed the region to be "the true, free, and pristine homeland of the Senamic people." This proclamation was made several months after Ketmani Alamosi and his army retreated to the Pagalha region to avoid being overrun and captured by the Senamic military.

Ever since its formation, the Clique has been in a state of constant war with neighboring countries, including the Empire of Senam and the Agosian Peoples Union. It has additionally engaged in limited conflicts with the City-State of Dal Sulo, such as the Pagalha-Dal Sulo Border Skirmish of 391.

On 4 October 390, Ketmani Alamasi died of natural causes and his son, Ketmani Sirafa, was declared the new supreme leader of the Pagalha Clique.

## Structure

The government structure of the Pagalha Clique can be classified as a military dictatorship, in which the Supreme Leader of the Armed Forces serves as the nation's head of state and source of governmental authority.

In a public speech given on 5 January 377, Supreme Leader Ketmani Alamosi vowed to transition the country into a democratic republic "once the existential threat of the tyrannical Senamic Empire is forever eradicated." However, there have not been any further actions to give weight to this claim.
1st Yokozean National Election

The **1st Yokozean National Election** was held on 28 September 351 to determine the composition of the Parliament of the Confederation of Yokoze. Voters elected 25 members to the national legislature from single-member constituencies using a first-past-the-post voting system. Voting was restricted to land-owning men over the age of 25. Official results from the election were released on the following day.

In contrast to modern Yokozean elections, there were no formal political parties. Instead, all candidates were independents who ran on separate platforms. Upon election, however, members of parliament made the decision to caucus with like-minded individuals to form political groups. These groups were not as closely-tied as parties and it was common for members of a group to vote contrary to other members. Jirou Arima, a popular general from the Great Reclamation War, remained the frontrunner throughout the campaigning process and was eventually elected by parliament as the first prime minister of Yokoze.

Following the signing of the Treaty of Atsuki and the end of the Great Reclamation War in 351 G.E., the Yokoze Confederation was officially declared independent. With some diplomatic encouragement from Shingō, the decision was made to implement a democratic system of government in which a parliament and prime minister would be established.
