The Marshal years
Founded on March 24th 2023, the Order of Karino as it was called began as a small settlement on a piece of land cut into an island by 2 rivers. The nation experienced slow but steady growth for a while as refugees and immagrints arrived in hope of a new life. as time passed the nation grew, allying with Samora, On march 29th, a man named Zhi woneng, also known as frogchad, arrived. as the nation grew Zhi worked tirelessly building the capital. Writing the nations original constitutiion, Zhi became a marshal of the Order on the 23rd of april. all while the nation grew in size, citizens arriving every week, but life for all was about to change on the 31st of may. when the mutual defense agreement with Aristios was invoked. The defeat of Aristios in the conflict spurred on Isolationist ideas, and on June 9th, the Grand marshal, had decided that Karino would no longer be an army with a state. The 9th of june, a date which in Karinoan history, is revered, for its ending of the Order, and installation of a monarch in power over a military dictatorship. Zhi and other marshals were appointed to consulship, as a new constitution was written, the nation embarked on a new chapter in its history

The Imperial era
Following the crowning of the emperor, work began rapidly in Karino, as a second wave of mass growth occurred, Macina grew massively in size. The province of Estiria grew as well, Estiria was a wild west of Karino, a symbol of the unclaimed frontier for the nation. the nation channeled what it called "the four modernizations" of Education, industry, technology, and National defense. staying out of foreign conflicts meant that economically the nations productivity grew, factories appeared in Macina and later Estiria. As Karino grew, it made friends in the nation of Jorthar, in a mutual alliance of the Leifmyrr Crowned states, an alliance of not only military defense, but economic and cultural cooperation, paving the way for a new era of peace in Leifmyrr. on the 24th of July, the nation had reached its size, and the Emperor opened the way for the first democratic elections. ending the Imperial era, and beginning the Democratic Era

The democratic era
The first elections, held from july 27th to august 1st, saw the Monarchist Party, win 2 seats, with waffles and grotesque, also known as Algeria, win the majority seats, however, Zhi, under the conservative DNP banner, would form a coalition with them and become prime minister, the final seat of the parliment, was filled by Mr Stoecki, a dual citizen of the OVU. in Zhis inaugural address, he furthered the foreign isolationism from outside wars, while advocating for "the next frontier" of Karino. His bills were widely popular, the citizens service act, although not in effect till september first, would help grow the nation to further continue on its path, and its place in the sun. The University of Karino was erected, a new government building, the National hall was also built. the industrial growth of the Imperial era continued, as macina grew into a real city, The Estirian homestead act expanded the Karinoan frontier and began to tame it as Estiria grew. by the August elections, the MAU-DNP coalition was handily re-elected, however with signifcantly smaller turnout. The power of estiria in the new government was coined, the Savannah populists, however Zhi would return for a second term as prime minister, however, a crisis was beginning to brew, the population was dropping. the nation was in decline, Zhi initially tried to fix this with acts such as the Labor act, to pay citizens to help the nation, and the port Macina act to open a market in the nation, however the crisis continued without end, eventually, on september 8th, in continued discussion with the MAU and emperor, The Revival of the Karinoan State act was passed. Suspending democracy until the crisis could be fixed, and creating a temporary dictatorship, under the merged parties of the MAU and DNP, referred to as the Karino National Party, or KNP, take power with Zhi as its commandant general. the following days saw a wealth of changes to protect Karino from outside forces, but also to its immagration system, eventually, on the 14th of september, the crisis began to level out, and Zhi, unsure of whether or not the people would return to active participation in democracy, decided to create a transitory stage called Reikzhen, the nation would still be largely KNP ruled, however many of the restrictions of the Revival act, along with a new national seat created as well as new parties were made in the image of the old ones, with the plan being to lift the remaining restrictions after the activity resumed to normal. The fallout of this incident resulted in Zhis resignation, and Waffles would subsequently succeed Zhi, although waffles promised to continue Zhis development of the nation under ReikZhen

The Reikzhen era saw major development and relative success in saving the nation, the peoples tutelage worked under Zhi, as the new government re elected Zhi prime minister of the nation, however tides were turning away from Karino, as complacency set in, Compalcency would boil over into a strange situation.

The era of humiliation
On October 7th, a series of incidences lead Zhi, in secret agreement with German, to overthrow the government and proclaim a provisional government, The next few days saw negotiations with regards to being coerced by foreign powers. Zhi devised a plan, in discussion with the USSE, Karino would become a Xeroist Republic and an Autonomous region of the USSE to protect it, although this lead to a terror attack, the government ignored it due to no one really supporting the terrror attacks, today the Era of humiliation remains, however many in Karino wish to break free of the chains it is forced into,

Karinoan culture
Karinos culture lies on ideals of hard work, unity, and national pride. The karinoan dream, a term coined by Zhi woneng, is the Idea that Karino can and should take its place in the sun, and that prosperity can be achieved through authority. shown even during the era of KNP dictatorship. In its language and architecture it reaches from real life Germany and Spain, Embodying the American frontier spirit and Japanese work ethic in Estiria even as it slowly is tamed by the drive toward modernity.

Modern Karino as a Xeroist Republic, is different to that of the USSE, Zhi, like many in the nation, is still a nationalist leader, figures that would ordinarily be denounced, are hailed as heros of an independent Karino. Zhis Xeroist Karino seeks to tie it to the larger Karinoan story, a nessecary way of governance, in order for the Karinoan Dream to be Realized, His philosophy, Zhi Woneng thought, decries all Hereditary and nepotist systems of leadership, to Zhi, those most loyal and willing to the nation, should be those to lead.
