Jarisven: Difference between revisions

==== Constitutional Conventions and Infighting ====

 

When the first Gothiric Republic was declared in 1786 it immediately struggled with infighting between members of the Council of Elders and the Revolutionaries. In which the two factions disagreed on how the legislature was going to be formed. With revolutionaries arguing in favor of a legislature chosen directly by the people, while the Elders arguing in favor of a reestablishment of the Council of Elders but further power then what they enjoyed under the kingdom. While both sides were able to come into an agreement it took several constitutional conventions. With the Constitutional Convention of 1798, being the final convention after 12 years of attempting to come to an agreement. The convention agreed upon having a lower house called the Assembly which was made up mostly of the Revolutionaries while having an upper house called the Gothiric Council which was made up of the Elders. It has been largely agreed upon that the only reason Jarisven did not end up in a civil war during this time was because both factions were unified in their hatred of Gustafists who were still loyal to the exiled monarchy.

 

==== Early Period (1942-1950) ====

 

With the establishment of once more a new republic it meant once more a complete reform of institutional power. In which the position of prime minister was replaced with the High Minister which had complete executive power in the nation. In which the position was established so that Darzisa centralized as much power around himself. With the parliament being replaced with the National Council, a small legislature made up of Darzisa most loyal members of the PGP. Under this new republic the theo-fascist ideology of [[Darzism]] was established. One made of mixtures of Darzisa’s personal religious and political views. Despite the extreme changes of Jarisven it did not face heavy instability compared to previous republics. Mainly caused by the Cult of Personality surrounding Darzisa and the generous welfare benefits given to citizens during the first years. Though said benefits were concentrated on the urban Ulvriktru regions of the country. In 1948 Nykuzniszna and Egstlan regions faced extreme oppression from the government, with them being placed under direct control of the military. With forced labor camps called “Lokesleir” being established within the regions. Attempts to free prisoners of the labor camps by local Ny’Sænuri and Egstlan Militants was tried in 1949 but all attempts were brutally cracked down upon. With the Jarisven military using the heads of the militants as trophies, placing them at the camp's gates.
