Fourth Tsardom of Ryzan

The Fourth Tsardom of Ryzan, officially the Tsardom of Ryzan, is the 12th government of Ryzan. The nation was one of two founding member states of the Great Northern Confederacy and borders Andorn to the northwest, Aurlûnor in the southwest, and the Magisterium to the east.

Unity Government
During the Allium-Coalition War, Tsar Jacob Azurov approached the Interim Ryzani Governing Committee offering to surrender the Tsardom of Westreach on the condition that President Kovalsky grant a general amnesty to the collaborators, which was accepted. The Second Republic was briefly reinstated with Jacob Azurov as Acting Vice President and Mocoslav Kovalsky as Acting President and acted as a de facto transitional authority.

Elections were held on the 1st of August, concluding 24 hours later. With the highest voter turnout in the nation's history, Mocoslav Kovalsky was reelected with a plurality vote of 41% to his first full term in office.

Kovalsky Administration
President Kovalsky took office on the August 2nd, calling a Duma session only hours later. After four hours of deliberation, the Duma approved Kovalsky's proposed Constitutional Amendment, sending the document for a final decision in a national plebiscite. The Amendment easily gained the requisite two-thirds approval, making it the third Ryzani Constitution. The revised Constitution made many fundamental changes, most notably establishing a fourth Tsardom with Tsar Stanislav Tossov as the Head of State.

The 3rd of August saw Jacob Azurov become Ryzan's first Prime Minister and Ryzan's creation of the Syltör League in cooperation with the Empire of Andorn and the Aurlûnor Velande.

Another Duma session was called on August 5th, wherein President Kovalsky affirmed his cabinet appointments before Prime Minister Azurov proposed the Syltör Federation (a union with Bardonia) to the Duma. Debate lasted three hours and ended with the motion being approved.

Second Josbar Administration
Josbar successfully once the popular vote as the New Ryzan Party presidential candidate on the 6th September 2021, with a Prime Minister yet to be elected. However, during the inauguration ceremony, former Ryzani war hero and member of 9. Commando Astr0 launched a coup d'état and proceeded to kill 7 people in the audience after they tried to protect themselves. Astr0 announced the creation of the Ryzani Empire and crowned himself Emperor, however this was deemed illegitimate by the government of Ryzan, who decreed that Astr0 was now an enemy of state and a traitor to the Ryzani people. The Minister of Justice, Vet, sided with Astr0 and declared the freehold of Vonskyr independent from Ryzan. It is believed that the secessionist is allied with Septa, a group that recently declared independence from Andorn and is led by Capna, the perpetrator of the Andorn coup and enemy of the Andornian state. Director Meklevich put Operation Axe into emergency action and Josbar declared a state of war against the rebels. It is also believed that Barbossa is allied with the separatists.

As of now Ryzan is preparing for war, and has called on the Syltor League to join them after the Andorn-Ryzani joint assualt on Septa territory was declared a success.
