Nationbuilding - Early 20th Century - Political - Advanced

---

Finally, the War is over. Called by those who lived it, The Most Atrocious War was the single most devastating conflict humanity has ever seen. Spanning four of the five continents and claiming the lives of nearly seven and a half million men, women and child, the war has ruined economies, nations and cultures. There are few, if any, who were not affected by it's reach. Whether directly or indirectly, the Most Atrocious War has irrevocably altered human history. The armistice arrived just days ago, and now rebuilding the world is at the hands of those leaders who lead their nations to victory. The nations ascribed to the Pact of Unity nearly collapsed in the Winter of 1915, but saw victory rendered on January 2nd, 1919.

In this RP, you will represent a Head of State from either a Pact Nation, a Defeated Power or a Neutral Nation. This is not to say which way your nation will go, but rather it's fate in the Most Atrocious War (1913-1919). Among the relevant game mechanics in this RP will be your nation's functional government, it's military and world economics.

1. Nation Name: Union of Socialist Voskiya

2. Head of State: Chairman Dominik Luczynski, 44

3. Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Entered the War a Pact Nation. Ended the War a Neutral Nation following the Winter Revolution of 1915.

4. Culture:
The great experiment, a nation of socialist principle and theory forged within the harsh anvil of war and winter. The butcher's bill of the Most Atrocious War stands tall, amidst the millions of lives claimed by the 6-year war can states and nations be counted, the Voskiyan Commonwealth was one such casualty. Faced with a buckling front and internal unrest, the blizzards of the 1915 winter oversaw more then just to near collapse of the Commonwealth's allies in the Pact of Unity but the utter collapse of the Voskiyan Commonwealth to discontent rebels and parties of the radical left during the Winter Revolution of 1915, and the subsequent formation of the Union of Voskiya from the ashes. Following it's ascension, the new worker's state was quick to end it's involvement in the Atrocious War and instead sought to centralize it's rule while the world continued to turn upon it's axis and tear itself to pieces for a further four years.

The Voskiyan Union has existed for a mere 4 years though in that time the Trade Union Congress has been swift with the implementation of Syndicalist and Socialist theory. The Union of Voskiya is a decentralized state ruled by directly elected regional councils under the jurisdiction of the national Trade Union Congress. Currently the economic ethos of the government is not one of an entirely state directed economy, but instead allows for some economic freedom at the local level backed up by strong workers' rights, welfare support and a democratization of the workplace in the form of co-operatives while the 'commanding heights' of the economy such as the coal industry are nationalized and run by their respective Trade Unions with supervision from the Congress. In 1916 it was also established that Voskiya was to be a secular state, with religion being incompatible with the spirit of scientific materialism following a decree that forbade the public teaching of religion though accepted that citizens may teach and may be taught religion privately.

Culturally the Socialist Union is distinct. A state of socialism and secularism in an age of monarchs and capitalists. The worker's state enjoys an age of relative freedom and experimentation as the new Union seeks to discover it's own unique culture and society. As encouraged by the central government, a variety of trends, be it in art or literature, in numerous schools, some traditional and others radically experimental have proliferated under the new government, with an extensive interest by the state in the burgeoning film industry as a means to communicate with the masses.

Such is life in the young Union of Voskiya as it seeks to forge it's own identity and power in the post-war world.

1. Nation Name: The Unified Great Bands of Vivia

2. Head of State: Grand Chief Julian Pohwati, 52

3. Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Pact Nation

4. Culture: Vivia is a land of a multitude of peoples and immigrants, whose roots begin centuries ago as a colony. Despite having first essentially purged most of the rebellious natives combined with the spread of smallpox, these natives were in fact integrated deeply into society in what became an overall rejection of those across the ocean to the East. More immigrants flooded into the individual colonies of Vivia, seeking wealth, prosperity, enlightenment, or reprieve from oppression. Blood eventually mixed with blood, ethnic groups with ethnic groups, resulting in the hodgepodge of peoples that is known as a "Vivian."

Of course, there are always those that are opposed to racial mixing, but the primary population is distinctly Vivian in culture, though there are of course different geographical flavors of Vivian. Easterners are often seen as enterprising, hard-working folk accustomed to factory labor and inventions, while Westerners are perhaps the artists of the nation, devising new songs, dances, and all other artwork. Midwestern and Southerners are renowned for their ability to grow crops and jury-rig solutions to problems.

Eventually though, Vivia decided to unify and break away from its mother country, deciding to adopt a moniker more befitting of the native blood that runs through it.

(In OOC terms, Vivia is essentially a blend of many Native American cultures with North European culture as well as some southern European culture, modeled on the United States of our world. Its government too should essentially be a Federal Republic.)

Nation Name: The Republic of Bretony

Head of State & Age: Chancellor Felix Bastille, 38 years.

Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Defeated nation, and a military dictatorship, surrendered on December 24 after the Christmas Revolt, which put Chancellor Felix Bastille into power.

Culture and recent history: A former kingdom, Bretony was turned into a republic about a century ago in a revolution of the masses after years of plummeting economy and skyrocketing food prices. A president is the head of state, but the chancellor holds the real power, acting as the prime minister. Bretony has a parliament composed of 350 MEPs (members of parliament), and about twenty ministries handling the matters of state.

Bretony has been the home for many writers and philosophers, but it hasn’t been idle on the military front. It’s army has long and proud traditions and many famous campaigns under its belt, although it was defeated in the War.

The Breton culture stretches centuries into history, although the modern nation-state is quite recent. Three or four centuries ago a unified state of Bretony was only a dream, as there were several Breton principalities, duchies and counties of differing sizes. The Kingdom of Bretony was born, when Prince Charles Ludovico of Guillaume annexed most of the modern-day Breton lands under his rule either by conquest or by political marriages and was named as the king of Bretony. During the next century and half, the kings of Bretony centralized power into their own hands and their bureaucrats. In 1801, a revolution began, which led to the cessation of monarchy and the creation of democracy a few years later after a Revolutionary War. When Bretony became a republic, a wave of nationalism swept across the nation, and the national identity strengthened during the course of the century. The government sponsored many artists, authors and composers, and the arts and sciences boomed. Also, industrialization hit Bretony during the century, which led to economic growth, although a depression hit Bretony quite hard in 1902, lasting until 1906.

On 26th of February, 1904, a military coup d’état took place in the capital city of Guillaume, when a cadre of officers and many soldiers, opposing the neutral stance of the country’s government on the continent and plummeting economy, Bretony was turned into a military dictatorship run by a council of generals. The generals were ousted from power on December 24th in the Christmas Revolt, as the population had grown tired of the losing war, dwindling resources and naval blockade. The same day, Chancellor Felix Bastille delivered a speech to the people and an unconditional surrender to the Pact of Unity.

(So, a mix between France and Germany.)

[LordZell]

Idk, if we should repost them but sure here. Also I think all defeated nations are now taken.

1. Nation Name: The Kingdom of Retherfed (After the war forced Republic of Retherfed

2. Head of State & Age: King Lukas Gate(43) (Fled) (President Joseph Friver) (38)

3. Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Your may will have been a Pact Nation, a Defeated Power or a Neutral Nation.
- A Defeated Nation lost terribly during the war, beginning with very little Prestige but is at the top of the Defeated Nation Draft. [0/3 Nations Total]

4. Culture: Before the Atrocious War, Ratherfed was a center of culture, finance and unity. Their unity which was all rooted in the idea that every Retheren was superior to that of their neighbors. The Kingdom of Ratherfed, which was once made up of multiple states that each vied for power eventually over the years through diplomacy and military campaigns became unified under the Gate’s family.

Unification was officially recognized in 1885 after the last minor country agreed to join the union, however due to the internal hostilities before the unification, the kingdom was never able to obtain colonies. What they instead focused on was a powerful military base and economy if sorely lacking in navy. Their centralization on the mainland continent was key and made is easy to become a large center of trade which was used to expand the ever growing military-industry complex that the Gate’s family had always longed for.

Eventually at the onset of the atrocious war the Kingdom had high hopes, their military was prepared, their command structure was key and their allies strong. However due to new technologies, and old tactics. As well as prior nobility taking point rather than on-field and competent officers leading, lead it into a long stalemate. Eventually, after years of fighting, the front seemed ready to push and win but due to internal conflicts and weakened allies the Kingdom fell and soon became a Republic, while many soldiers see this new government as weak and traitors and EVERY Retheren sees those apart of the pact as traitors, only time will tell how long this peace lasts.

In 1916 it was also established that Voskiya was to be a secular state, with religion being incompatible with the spirit of scientific materialism following a decree that forbade the public teaching of religion though accepted that citizens may teach and may be taught religion privately.

Nation Name: The Republic of Blaque

Head of State & Age: President Raul Fernadino (46)

Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Neutral Nation

Culture: The Republic of Blaque has long since held the ideals of neutrality and the freedom of the individual above all else. Ideologies challenged throughout the events of the atrocious war to the point in which the nation seemed almost primed for collapse, split between varying factions supporting both the now defeated powers and the pact nations. Ultimately, for better or for worse, the nation remained neutral. Playing to both sides of the conflict, giving to their demands where necessary and remaining stern to what they believed in where they could. Caught between the conflict of two major factions.

Once a nation welcoming to all people and cultures, the shadow of the bloody war has left a lasting mark upon the people of Blaque. Despite having never spilt a drop of blood fighting for either side, the infighting, foreign meddling, and persistent referendums have left the population jaded and isolationist ideals now remain at the forefront of current politics.

Before the great war and the slow shift towards isolationism, the Republic was at the forefront of liberal and progressive ideology. Accepting of all people and cultures, proposing the ideas that it was not the heritage of the man but the character. Though a large portion of the country continues to hold these beliefs, it is questionable just how long they will remain influential to the nation moving forward.

1. Nation Name: Naftal or Naftali

2. Head of State & Age: Prime Minister Semira Solomon Neorah

3. Political Alignment during the Most Atrocious War: Pact

4. Brief History:
The new Republic of Naftal was built swiftly after the fall of its former self, the Birlikte Empire. During the Atrocious War, the Birlikte Empire supported the defeated nations and found itself in a civil war right after the war ended. A new ideology rose up from a female voice who was a veteran in the Atrocious War. This female is now known as, Prime Minister Semira Neorah. An honored veteran and prestigious diplomat who found herself rising in influence when she began speaking out against the Birlikte Empire. She was trained in the unit Karagoz, the unit practiced espionage, counter intelligence, and sabotage. It was her who organized a strong campaign against the current monarchy and razed to the ground.

In place, her followers and a majority of the country entrusted her with their future. Prime Minister Semira Neorah began her mission to make amends with the Pact Nations and in turn joined their side. Although struggling with internal conflict, the new Republic of Naftal was born, and as a Pact Nation.

5. Culture:

Naftal is bustling with trade and is quite diverse when referring to its demographic. There are all different types of people who are accepted here, no matter their, ethnicity, religion, color, gender, etc. Freedom of expression is encouraged as the last ruling power kept this suppressed. It is not uncommon to spot traditionally conservative attire, and risqué. Most fabrics are very vibrant in color, and the food spicy. All men and women at the age of 16 are enlisted into a two year minimum service with the military, and then as a reservist for an additional two years. Naftal operates on a direct election by popular vote for their Prime Minister, this process is how Prime Minister Semira Neorah into power.
