== Premiership (2022–present) ==
Engebretsen begin her premiership in 2022 on the platform of fighting against discriminatory policies against Kemonomimi, Shrine Renewal programs and continuing [[Ayo Hoshi]] platform of turning Nystatiszna into a modern Akuan country. As of 2022, legally speaking apartheid laws have all been repealed but still continue to suffer from institutionalized speciesm against Kemonomimi. Nystatiszna joined the [[Red Crown Economic Union]] during her first year, and was seen as a massive boon to the country's economy. She organized further investment campaigns from other geo-political bodies, nations and international companies to the country though due to [[ICAF]] mistranslation situation several large partners of the country withdrew from the country and still hasn't returned. While being against the complete ban on abortion, it was passed during her premiership.
 
=== Electrification and Telecommunication Campaign ===
Inheriting [[Ayo Hoshi]] platform of increasing electrification of the country and telecommunications, Engebretsen negotiated with Jætte a subsidiary of [[Jotun]] to construction of telephone towers in the country in exchange of a ten-year exclusive contract for telecommunication services and provider in 2023. While she came under heavy criticisms for the contract, she defended herself by stating very few companies are willing to invest into the country without having infrastructure already established. Engebretsen signed the Nystatinne Utilities Company Act in 2023 alongside negotiations with Jætte, to create a unified state-ran company to manage and construct electrical as well, water grids for the country. With the country's newest power-plant being built outside of Newport, that would power the new industrial parks being built along the coast of the country.
 
=== Closing of Re-Education Centers ===
Engebretsen first act as Prime Minister was to force the closure of [[Nystatiszna Intelligence Bureau]] private prisons and re-education centers, a promise [[Ayo Hoshi]] made during his tenure as leader of the country throughout the reforms.
 
=== Healthcare and Shrine Renewal ===
In 2022, after receiving a financial aid package from the [[Red Crown Economic Union]]. Engebretsen used the aid funds to assist with creating new clean water hygiene facilities across the country. While in [[Akuanism]] being clean was seen as a moral good and regardless of form or culture of the Akuanism. Nystatiszna suffered issues of lack of access to clean hot water, resulting in majority of the population using towels wettened by river or lake water to clean themselves with. The new hygiene facilities providing public cleaning facilities, that provide soap bars and toothpaste for Nystatinnes in addition to having hot water that didn't have to be made from a fire. Part of the funds from the aid package, was used to create such facilities in shrines as according to her Shrine Renewal platform. Repairing or constructing new public bathhouses within the shrines. The program is still on-going however, 1 in 10 Nystatinnes report access to one of these new hygiene facilities in 2024.
 
Engebretsen, after significant lobbing in the parliament successfully passed a national insurance act to assist with funding healthcare in 2022. Another part of her healthcare platform, was to education Nystatinnes on modern healthcare practices and attempts to turn Nystatinnes away from traditional Akuan medical practices. Primary depending on radio broadcasts with professional medical spokespersons receiving questions on air from Nystatinnes and responding to their concerns.
 
=== Economy ===
Continuing [[Ayo Hoshi]] platform of growing the country's economy, Engebretsen has negotiation with various geo-political bodies and international corporations to invest into the country. In particular the extreme rich mineral deposits throughout the country, which include some of the largest rare Urth minerals finds in the world. As well as [[Borea]]'s largest mineral reserve of lithium rich, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brine_mining geothermal brine] and the second largest reserve of silver, being beaten out by [[Lapliszna]]. In addition to seeking investment for mining, Engebretsen pushed for tourism, in particular [[Akuanism|Akuan]] and [[Ulvriktru]] religious tourists to visit the country. Though it has not been no-where near as successful as mineral investments into the country, Engebretsen has still continued to push for investments into tourism. She attempted to reform the [[Imperial People’s Fund]], both to change the name and structure of the organization but failed to pass in parliament in 2022. Regardless she attempted to use the fund to construct several new ventures into tourism sector, including hotels, restaurants and entertainment facilities for tourists.
 
==== ICAF Scandal ====
Nystatiszna was selected to host the [[ICAF]] 2024 world cup, Engebretsen being extreme vocal supporter as the economic impact of cup would massively boost Nystatiszna service and tourism sectors, but more importantly publicity of showing Nystatiszna has fundamentally changed and discredit the racial-speciest stereotypes held by the international community. Even during her time in the upper-chamber, she lobbied for heavy investments into the projects and attempted to push hosting the world cup into the Five Year Plan outright. Having unauthorized and later-declared legal negotiations with the [[Bjørn Trust]] to invest into the entertainment and hotel facilities at host cities. Despite being warned not to do such a act again, in 2019 she negotiate with [[Jotun]] and later [[Voyage Union]] for further investments into the host cities. When she became the PM in 2022, she doubled down on her focus for the [[ICAF]] world cup and gathered additional investments from international community for the projects as well pressured the [[Imperial People’s Fund]] to release more funds for the host cities. The project not only including tourism industry related buildings and construction of stadiums. It included investments into healthcare facilities, new housing complexes, education, language courses for [[Codexian]]/[[Staynish]], and several other projects. It is estimated to cost nearly $5.2 billion [[Kirib]] into project cities, measuring 42% of 2018 Nystatiszna nominal GDP pre-[[Ingrid the Reclaimer|Ingrid]], [[Red Crown Economic Union|RCEU]] or any major international investment into the country. Projects cost reaching nearly the same cost as Five Year Plan itself, and was generally viewed as a extremely risky venture by the Nystatinne parliament, including by members of her own party. The general accepted view being that they should focus on the Five Year Plan, with it's clear goals of industrializing and capitalizing on it's mineral wealth rather than a risky venture into tourism. Even during [[Ayo Hoshi]] presidency and later Premiership of the country cited concerns of Engebretsen focus on [[ICAF]] world cup, as a method of growing Nystatiszna and changing of public opinion. As Nystatiszna was already accused of corruption and bribing [[ICAF]] to host the world cup in the country.
 
Engebretsen despite the concerns and criticism throughout her political career, maintained that the world cup is the best way to show Nystatiszna has changed from being a apartheid state and is on the road to becoming a modern [[Akuan Democracy]]. Stating hosting the World Cup isn't about football but about showing Nystatiszna as we know it rather than what the rest of the world sees Nystatiszna as. As well bringing up the extremely heavy investment into the cities also functions as part of her renewal program and works alongside the Five Year Plan, providing housing, healthcare and jobs to Nystatinnes within the cities. Engebretsen stating her position again about the World Cup on January 2024, that ICAF world cup will fundamentally challenge the perception of Nystatiszna as a xenophobic isolationist and speciest nation.
 
In the 12 of February 2024, [[ICAF]] released information about the venues and rules. Virtually all of which completely incorrect, mistranslated or just made up, nothing of which actually coming from the original information the Nystatinne government sent over to [[ICAF]]. The information released by [[ICAF]] for the Nystatinne World Cup, was not only massively incorrect in translations, but was filled to the brim with support for terrorism, support for [[Sinter Tass]] regime, speciest rhetoric and all manner of hate-speech. Most of which, wouldn't have been able to be legally printed nor shared in Nystatiszna due to hate-speech and anti-Hirdism laws in the first place. Nearly every single stadium on the brochure was incorrect, as well the whole of the section for NIB guidelines was completely mistranslated to a high degree. Engebretsen on hearing word of the falsified information, called [[ICAF]] president Mr. Griffith to demand a explanation and a retraction of the information and release the actual brochure out. According to [[ICAF]] interim Chairman Mr. Bush the ICAF council members wasn't informed of the stadium names properly translated, and in-trusted Mr. Griffith to have the names translated properly. The former ICAF president, deliberately mistranslated or made up names for the stadiums. It wasn't until 29 of February when the retraction of the brochure was made and [[ICAF]] released a statement clarifying the situation, that Mr. Griffith changed names of the stadiums and the NIB guideline policies.
 
Between two periods, 12th and 29th, [[Nystatiszna]] was at first caught off-guard by the situation and scrambled a response. Engebretsen herself trying to call Mr. Griffith numerous times, and only later was able to get into contact with [[ICAF]] council member on the 13th to demand a explanation. Through out the 17 days, [[Nystatiszna]] greatly suffered from investors attempting to pull out of the country, massive lost in diplomatic reputation with threats of being kicked out of the [[Red Crown Economic Union]] being suggested by [[Kuduk]] Councilor to the RCEU, boycotts the largest of which being from the [[League of Novaris]], and [[Anti-Akuanism]] xenophobic rhetoric within the [[International Forum]]. During all of which Nystatiszna diplomats reasserted it's the country's innocents and the brochure being mistakenly made or fabricated. The largest and most drastic of condemnations and boycotts being from [[Great Morstaybishlia|Morstaybishlia]], with [[Franklin Barvata]] declaring Nystatiszna as a fascist state despite lacking evidence outside of the Griffith's brochure which Nystatinne government contested. Further more, PM [[Franklin Barvata]] reiterate Borean [[Anti-Akuanism]] rhetoric declaring Nystatiszna a cursed land, a common talking point of [[Terism]]-[[Hirdism]] and deliberately down playing the largely improving of Nystatiszna civil rights record. Outside of [[Great Morstaybishlia|Morstaybishlia]], racist rhetoric of Nystatiszna was spread in the [[International Forum]] and [[League of Novaris]] without repercussion, most of which implied Nystatinnes to be incontrollable xenophobic killers. On [[Pigeon]], the [[Anti-Akuanism]] was common feature on the trending page for ICAF with the cannibalistic myth of [[Syngendebakke Soup]] being shared again, the Great Seduction Conspiracy being shared on pages about Engebretsen and various other common [[Anti-Akuanism]] being shared again.
 
[[ICAF]] removed Mr. Griffin from his position as leader of ICAF, and Interim Chairman Jebathon Elijiah Bush released a statement. Clarifying Mr. Griffith was acting alone in mistranslations and misinformation on the brochure, as well stating giving a apology to the Nystatinne government. Mr. Griffith while still chairperson of [[ICAF]] having gone on various offensive rants when the boycotts began during the scandal. The Nystatinne government while still hosting the 2024 [[ICAF]] world cup, is suing the organization for lost of reputation and revenue. As well handling the translations needs themselves.
