Line 80:
In the northwest, a popular movement around individual rights and freedom began to arise. With the birth of Chance Syng in 1952, however, the fate of that portion of the empire was sealed. In 1970, a popular movement of succession was all that was talked about in what was soon to be [[Norograd]]. [[Thesius Crumpus Vorenstein|Lord Thesius Crumpus Vorenstein]], governor of what is now Emberwood Coast, parts of Lyrevale, and Northern Quartz Fern Coast, cracked down on the protests that were flaring up around his estate with police. When they were just eighteen years old, Syng stood in front of an officer who had been attacking a man, and refused to move. Realizing what they were doing to their own community (most normal duty officers were recruited from the provinces they worked) and turned on the imperial forces. Three days later, on January 18th, 1970, Lord Voernstein was exiled and Syng, who'd lead several of the revolts before their incident in front of police, was then elected as temporary leader of what was briefly "New Staynes," then, after she decided to leave Norograd, finally settled in its current borders as Emberwood Coast.
==1970-
A relatively young nation, Emberwood Coast has been around for only 40 years. The nation is a breakaway territory of [[Norograd]] (which itself was a breakaway from the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]]) since the outbreak of the [[The Auroran Imperial War| Auroran Imperial War]]. As tensions grew and war raged on, the citizens of the coast could no longer allow themselves to add to the fight.
Line 89:
Syng was the president for eight years, ending their two term presidency on January 8th, 1980.
==1980-
Just weeks earlier, in late 1979, [[Kayla Hansleigh]] was elected to take their place as president of the Coast.
Line 97:
Hansleigh was president for three terms, ending in 1992.
==1990-
Hansleigh's main focus was Scientific Advancement. In 1991 she organized the [[Emberwood Coast Space Exploration Administration]] (ECSEA). Later that decade, the [[ESV Ascension]] was completed, and launched into orbit on February 29th, 1996.
After the end of Hansleigh's second term, [[Darson Nanokono]] was sworn into the presidency on January 7th, 1992. As a continuation of their predecessor's scientific programs, they authorized the construction of [[Perpetua Station]].
==2000-
On August 7, 2005, Perpetua Station was ripped apart in a micro-meteor strike, killing all four crewmembers aboard. The nation grieves for months. The incumbent president narrowly won reelection in 2000, facing a 22-year-old Harriet Young, who rode a wave of isolationist nationalism, pushed to the forefront by the development of the internet and instant information services. Historians agree that had the election taken place even a year or so later, Young would now be in power.
Line 109:
After Nanokono's second term, President Archer was elected for a single term, running on a push for strengthened infrastructure and improvements to urban centers. Many credit this presidency starting in 2008 as propelling Aura to its current state as a global economic and political hub.
==2010-
Lakon Anch is elected president in 2012 with a slight majority, touting an impressive resume in the physical sciences. Pushing for improved and expanded post-secondary education, the nation became a world leader in collegiate attendance. The length of Anch's presidency was uneventful, and he stepped down after a single term to pursue research in his previous field.
Line 118:
Finally, as 2017 came, the [[Treaty of Aura]] went into effect. Still wishing to maintain neutrality in the numerous growing political fissures on Urth, Poole began to forge new agreements with other nations, in an attempt to forestall further war. Nimona regained lost public opinion on a platform of peace and non-agression, and has expressed hopes to forestall further conflict going forward. Many speculate on whether she will run for a second term in 2020, with no general consensus. Harriet Young has expressed a desire to run against her or any other anti-isolationist candidate in the coming election.
A constitutional crisis emerged in 2019, when external actors attempted to destabilize the executive by manipulating and eventually assassinating president Nimona Poole. Attempting to monopolize on this, a right wing coalition moved to seize the presidency by filling her seat, but the Anarchist party won an emergency vote to reorganize the government to avoid hostile changes to international and economic policy. [[Saravalie Interva]] led this push, and now sits as the international "Head of State" on the Association Coordination Board.
