Second Aetherian Republic

The Second Aetherian Republic was formed in and is the continuation of the Aetherian State as well as the First Aetherian Republic. It is also effectively the successor state to the Aetherian Empire. Its founding fathers being Astralium, Tomhins, Rety, Bollejosh, Adino, Aokperson, Emperor Duck and V0idF1sh, it was formed after the declaration of independence of the Theocracy of Gigney and Kingdom of Daeko-Kianna and merger of the previously mentionned and the Aetherian State.

Currently, it holds no official capital, though it is effectively ruled from Neu Misahr, Vietca and Gigney.

Aetherian Spring
After Dande refused to give Gigney statehood, it began plotting on how to move forward. Although Tofu had given Tomhins the liberty of having a semi-independent government, he wanted more. After settling on a theocracy, the semi-autonomous government was beginning to be put in place. Although, the Aetherian spring had not started with that. Around a week earlier, Astralium had declared that Coolio City would act independent from Paragonite Chevkri and Dara-Lumonde whilst still being part of the mentionned. Taking both of these events into mind, the true beginning of the Aetherian spring would start when Ashûk declared the independence of Paragonite Chevkri from Dara-Lumonde and the Horde.

Independence of Gigney
Gigney, seeing the declaration of independence of Paragonite Chevkri, would decide that it is now the best time to strike. It would issue a declaration of independence from all 3 entities holding it back from the exact thing it is declaring: The Thanedom of Dande on the state-level, the Dominion of Haven on the nation level and the Inhuman Horde on the political entity level. It was there and then fully independent. Although Dande was not ready to give it up, it's hand would be forced into doing so, leaving Gigney unscarred by the plague of war.

Independence of Neu-Misahr
A bit later after Gigney declared it's independence, Neu-Misahr, after speaking with the leaders of Gigney itself, would declare it's own independence.

Unification of the Aetherian States
This would all come to a head, however, when Rety, Athi, Potato Lover, Astralium, Tomhins, Adino, Aokperson, Emperor Duck and Voidfish would convene in a GC, and agreeing on the unification of the Aetherian State, the Kingdom of Daeko-Kianna and the Theocracy of Gigney. It would be turned into a Semi-Democratic Republic with Adino as 'Overseer' (Effectively President) and Bolle Josh as 'Constitutional Holder'. Elections for a Prime Minister were also held, electing Potato Lover as Prime Minister.

Era of Peace
Following these events, not much happened. Aetheria saw growth and not much else. This part of Aetheria's history has nothing of major to note. Although, early on in this period, the Semi-Democratic Republic turned into an Authoritarian Meritocracy, although with elections on certain subjects like Magistratures due to Adino and others having seen the collapse of Elys, a democratic republic and fearing the same might happen with Aetheria.

Reunification of Aetheria
On the 24th of March 2023, the city of Zhaitker-Klend joined the Second Aetherian Republic, marking the start of the Reunification of Aetheria. Russantia had been removed from Aeron and given to Viesten by Nyth, the town owner. Aetheria began showing interest in Russantia following ZTK joining it, but it seems it would not be Russantia that would be re-integrated second, but Paragonite Chevkri.

Re-Integration of Paragonite Chevkri
Ashuk rejoined the server and went into #policy-discussion and sent "Ha-ha, let's unite with Chevkri, wouldn't that be fun ... ?", which marked the end of private discussions for it's integration.

It was revealed that Paragonite Chevkri had NOONE, WHATSOEVER to run the land anymore. And so, a deal was agreed upon. The lands would be redistributed as the Province of Chevkri, the Province of Paragon and the rest would be added to the Nuraq Province. It was officially added to the Aetherian Republic on April 9th.

Government
The Aetherian Government can be resumed as a Meritocracy. The Head of Government and State is Adino, holding the role of 'Overseer', although Bolle Josh is Constitutional Holder, giving him total control and ability to veto whatever he wants. Alongside these two positions is the Senate composed of Konsuls, the leaders of the individual states, and Notariuses, city leaders.

Each position in the government is appointed by the overseer, and the overseer position is appointed apon the current overseer's death (RP), abdication or deposition by the Constitutional Holder.

Geography
Aetheria is located in Haven, in southwestern Rathnir. It borders the Heart of Haven in Neu Misahr, the Zhaitker Gulf and the Great Southern Ocean, including the Kushite sea. It's seperated into three parts, consisting of Neu Misahr, an island archipelago in the Heart of Haven, Gigney, a city inbetween Paragonite Umbria and Dara-Lumonde, and Zhaitker-Klend inbetween the Zhaitker Gulf and the Kushite sea. It borders Montroig, Dara-Lumonde, Viesten and Dara-Lumonde.
