Korolian Civil War

The Korolian Civil War, also referred to as Novozemjan Civil War, Novozemjan Warlord Period, Collapse of Korolia, Crisis of the 02', and more, is the name for the ongoing civil war and surrounding events that are happening in the former territory of the Csardom of Korolia.

Summary
The course of events leading up to the civil war started after the two former regions of the Csardom of Korolia declared independence, one being the Third Svalmarc Imperium led by the Pjervod, Mateuš Kovařík who later resigned after they secured the independence for them as well as the second nation, Kingdom of Devenburg, also known as Devenburg Clique. Their independence was as stated, a result of neglect, lack of recognition, lack of representation and lack of activity within the Csardom of Korolia. Later on the remaining lands of the Csardom shattered, as the secesssions triggered the powder keg that the Korolia was, leaving loads of independent warlord states to fight for their own cause.

The only lands that have officially been given independence are the Kingdom of Devenburg, Third Svalmarc Imperium and Nova Zemja, rest of the lands displayed and listed are unofficial states meaning they are not recognised by the international world. The Civil War only effects Korolia, partially effecting Nova Zemja via riots and with attempts of peacekeeping from Svalmarc and Devenburg.

Devenburg Clique Secession


The independence of Devenburg was proclaimed in the autumn of 1102 ACA. Olary von Mathijs had provided a list of reasons for it to the Pjervod, Mateuš Kovařík. The list is as follows:


 * 1) Devenburg requested to be an independent province, aiming for the benefits of what provinces receive. As we make our independent progess it would only be right for us to be our own province. Despite seeking provincial power for the best interests of its people, these claims have been consistently ignored.


 * 1) The Devenburg culture differs significantly from the broader Korolian nation. With diverse people and unique cultural identities, we resist assimilation into Korolian culture, sticking to our true culture.


 * 1) Despite the current government's initial support for Devenburg, this backing is ignored and not listens to. The focus remains only on the development of more Korolian cultural areas, specifically Zlatoport and Lipanovo, disregarding the needs of Devenburg. This unequal support of Devenburg harms it's growth and we are making progress on our own. There's no benefit of us being apart of Korolia.


 * 1) Our cultural differences remains unacknowledged, and our people are wrongly categorized as Korolians, disregarding the truth about our actual culture.


 * 1) Despite Devenburg making independent progress, the Korolian nation is ruined by infighting. Only a few individuals actively contribute to positive change, while the majority remain inactive.


 * 1) Dissatisfaction continues with national infighting, exacerbated by the influence of a non-Korolian figure hindering real progress.

We seeked to be a separate province under Korolia as we are making independent progess and wish to have the benefits which provinces receive. Although we no longer seek this, we now seek full independence and want to be the Kingdom of Devenburg.

The claims of Olary made here are for the most part true, however the claim about culture differences is exaggerated.

Third Svalmarc Imperium Secession




The Third Svalmarc Imperium declared itself independent from Korolia for the third time in history after constant conflicts, neglect, lack of representation, lack of recognition and lack of activity within the nation. Similarly to Devenburg Clique, they provided a list as to why they went independent which is as follows:


 * 1) Constant arguments. People asked for it to end and there was clearly people getting annoyed and wanting it to stop yet it didn't.


 * 1) Petty court cases. Icy II Zerkalo filed a case against Halprin Deitsch Jr., then Halprin Deitsch Jr. had to make a case against Icy II Zerkalo purely out of spite. Most the claims of both sides were false.


 * 1) There seems to be no respect shown for the Svalmarc unification. It's all about the former UC, the Svalmarc people were denied recognition of their own dialect. (Editor Note: one that doesn't exist)


 * 1) There was attempts to remove the Svalmarcer religion of Azalithia.


 * 1) There has not yet been a commission set up on regards or the Svalmarc unification. The commission was meant to be delegates to discuss any conflicts or discontent amongst the Svalmarc people.


 * 1) The agreement of unification explicitly outlines situation where if too toxic disagreements occur and it is lasting too long, people are showing signs of it annoying them and asked to stop then it must stop, this was not adhered to.


 * 1) Until recently there has been denial of representation of Svalmarc on the nations flag and it seemed to all be purely about the former UC. There was flags that was supposedly "just art" not flag proposal. (Editor Note: the flag didn't represent Svalmarc not because of spite but because out of laziness

The only people proactive are Mateuš Kovařík, Lowry, Icy II Zerkalo and Olary von Mathijs. We seem to be carrying the nation on our shoulders with no participation of others.

Amidst failed representation, internal conflicts, ignorance to the agreement, the Svalmarc people providing more help then most and neglect of Svalmarc culture, the people feel unheard, prompting a call for independence.

Lucid & Sigrun Governments
The joint declarations of Svalmarc and Devenburg caught the Csardom of Korolia by surprise. Especially considering that the Pjervod Mateus Kovarik was also the Csar of Svalmarc, so the government was left without a head. After a brief period of total chaos two emergency governments ensued - the Tim Lucid Government, with T. Lucid as the Pjervod, and the Sigrun Government, later Csar's Loyalist Militia headed by Adawulfa Sigrun.

Nova Zemja Secession
Then, Vanja Slavski, backed by majority of the regional governors in the remaining region, proclaimed the Second State of Nova Žemja, bringing the regional name back after almost a century of it being called either United Commonwealth or Korolia, Nova Zemja was back.

This event is also what originally triggered Havoc in Zlatoport but that is detailed in a different paragaraph.

Csar Slout V Government
After NZ secession, the Korolian remnants split further, as the Csar Slout V, declined the legitmacy of both Lucid and Sigrun governments, essentially forming another warlord state loyal to him.

Other Cliques
There are also two other cliques formed by civilians - the Pro-Aurean Bloc, supporting Aurean intervention and dependency, and the Anarchists.

Havoc in Zlatoport


Havoc in Zlatoport happened mere hours after the Nova Zemja Secession was announced by Vanja Slavski from Lipanovo-Ostrokochod. Initially, a crowd of pro-Novozemjan demonstrants gathered, intending to take down Csardom of Korolia's flags in the city. However the crowd grew more radicalized, going from taking down flags, to storming government buildings, to rampaging them and further. Later, as rioters supporting other sides joined into the fray, the whole city was ablaze, with people hurt, injured and dying left and right. Emergency services were totally crippled, only able to count the casualties, total count of which is estimated at 20k+.

This event essentially turned the former capital, and a 1M+ metropolis into a total anarchy zone.

Lipanovo-Ostrokochod - Svalmarc Invasion
Peacekeeping troops marched through Lipanovo-Ostrokochod to clear up Anti-NZ banners and signs whilst also ensuring peace was being maintained. Unfortunately Adawulfa Sigrun and his militia attacked the peacekeepers before quickly losing to the peacekeeper troops who successfully cleared the area from Anti-NZ banners and signs.

Tim Lucid, Emergency Government
A referendum proposed by Tim Lucid successfully passed, granting the former Pjervod full authority over the state. In a sweeping move, this referendum led to the dissolution of all existing laws, the constitution, and the powers of the Csar. This resulted in Lucid Korolia annexing the Csardom of Korolia under the Lucid Korolia banner.

Following this transformative decision, Tim Lucid took decisive actions to consolidate his authority. Those who spoke up against the Lucid Government were expelled from the nation, and a significant restructuring of the Sejm ensued, with half of its members being replaced by ardent supporters of the Lucid cause. Tim Lucid orchestrated these changes as a strategic effort to form governmental cooperation, aiming to lay the foundation for peace and the restoration of national stability.

In a gesture of conciliation, Tim Lucid conveyed to the Csar his commitment to temporarily set aside established laws and the constitution. This temporary suspension, he assured, was with the ultimate goal of restoring the nation to a harmonious state. Once the necessary repairs were accomplished, Tim Lucid pledged to reinstate the pre-existing legal and constitutional framework, showing his dedication to governance rooted in democratic principles.

Csar's Militia joins Korolia
The Csar's Militia has officially aligned itself with Korolia in response to the establishment of the Sigrun government. This development transpired following the successful referendum that granted former Pjervod, Tim Lucid, full control over the state. Dissatisfied with this outcome, the Csar promptly ousted Tim Lucid and installed a Csar loyalist, giving rise to the formation of the Sigrun Government.

This then saw the reformation of Lucid Korolia as a dispute between the borders of Nova Zemja and Devenburg, with the SDC hoping for their land to join Nova Zemja or Devenburg.

Free City of Krasnabašta
In light of the newfound leadership in Sigrun, Snake Ogresean declared the city of Krasnabašta as an independent entity. This declaration created an opportunity for the Svalmarc-Devenburg Confederation (SDC) to extend its peacekeeping efforts. The SDC engaged with the Free City of Krasnabašta, proposing its integration into the confederation. This strategic move aimed to provide protection to Krasnabašta and authorize SDC peacekeeping troops to oversee security within its borders. By doing so, the Free City would serve as a safe haven for refugees seeking asylum, aligning with the SDC's commitment to maintaining regional stability.

International Response
an international player have expressed their intent to intervene in the civil war, these being Korolia's long time regional rival - Aurea.

Etymology
The three most popular names for the conflict are:


 * Korolian Civil War - referring to a civil war within Csardom of Korolia


 * Novozemjan Civil War - referring to a civil war within Nova Žemja as a geographic region (even when the country was called the Second United Commonwealth or Korolia the land on which it was located was known to Korolians as Nova Zemja)


 * Novozemjan Warlord Period - same as above but replaces civil war with "Warlord Period"


 * Collapse of Korolia - self explainatory, refers to the collapse of the country


 * Crisis of the 02' - naming consistency compared to the previous major political crises in Korolia and it's predecessors (Constitutional Crisis of 1029, Crisis of the 58', Crisis of the 87' etc.)
