 * Second Freeholds of Westreach The Seventh Ryzani Government, and the first time Ryzan was occupied by a foreign power militarily. It is often considered a puppet government under Bardonia with GreenToss as it's leader.
 * Ryzani-Carthyan Republic The Eighth Ryzani Government. The first independent government since it's brief independence from the Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Empire, the second time where the capital was not located in Tossagrad, but the first time the capital was in a Ryzani territory, but not in Tossagrad.

 * Ryzani Republic - The Ninth Ryzani Government. The first time a peaceful transition occurred, and the first major change where the capital was not moved back to Tossagrad. The first time where Twin Dragon was an official religion alongside Tossanism.
 * Third Tsardom of Ryzan - The Tenth Ryzani Government. The second time a peaceful transition occurred, and the first time since the Aurlûnoren-Ryzani Empire where the royal family rules, but also the first time where a foreign ruling family known as the McSpeigels rule. Also the first time where Soleannen was on the official religion list.
 * Second Ryzani Republic - The Eleventh Ryzani Government. It would be a short lived Republic that would succeed the Third Tsardom following a constitutional reform that ridded the Royal Family of its powers and titles and implemented a new Duma. Although the reforms had the backing of most of the Ryzani population, they were widely unpopular among its allies on the outside and ultimately led to the dissolution or removal of Ryzan from several diplomatic agreements. It would fall to Bardonia on June 28, 2021, ending eight months of Ryzani sovereignty. Some officials from the Second Republic continued to claim the Republic's legitimacy over Ryzan throughout the Second Ryzani Occupation.
