Modern Tissandra is commonly described as decadent and corrupt, although life expectancy and quality of living are high. This attributes are seemingly derived from Native Yasterian who felt the nation occupies their territory unlawfully. This description is also held by the [[Tissandran Liberal Rebels]] which rebelled in 2019, and engulfed the nation into the [[Third Civil War]] that still continue to this day.

 

The name "Tissandra" first derived from the ancient [[Eranorth Tribe]]. No one actually clearly knows about the real meaning of the name for the Eranorthians. But for the Hellenistic cultures that succeed it the name came from the [[Legend of Hellen]], where supposedly, [[Tissa]] the God of Earth was [[Helen]], Goddess of The Skies' first true love. And so, universally accepted by the Hellenist, that the entirety of Tissandran people are descendants of Tissa and Hellen.

 

The first official use of the name came after the [[Tissandra Fisrt Civil War|First Civil War]] where the two halves of the country claimed the name as their own. Today, the name Tissandra is codified in the section 2 paragraph 1 of the [[1918 Constitution of Tissandra|1918 Constitution]] and stands as the official name for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/constitutional_monarchy Constitutional Monarchy].

 

Historical Intellects and scientist agreed that the [[History of Tissandra]] mainly consisted of six stages; [[Tribes of Yasteria|Tribal Era]], Hellenistic Civilization, Clintinian Republic, The Hundred States Period, The East-West Divides, and the contemporary history.

Around 1000 bc, Middle Yasteria was occupied by both Yasterian Natives and Coasts Tribes. The origin of these Coast Tribes are unknown, although there are lot of its remnants around the caves in Packilvania's coasts.

 

It was under Eleana, when the first [[Hellenic Temple]] was founded in Creçoré.

 

[[File:Eleana Æçara.jpeg|thumb|Eleana and her husband, Huron|alt=|left|135x135px]]Eleana [[Æçara]] became the first [[Shallah]] of the Hellenic Civilization on 24th of August 624 bc, and gone to rule almost for 72 years. During her reign, Hellenist began to preached across Yasteria, while roads are built to connect the major villages and tribes of Yasteria Major.

 

Around 446 bc, [[Æthura]] led the Hellenist once more across the Yasteria Range, and managed to surpass the deadly passes. He would gone to conquer most of the tribes west of the ranges. He and his son, [[Conquitara]] moves eastward and won another victory against the interior tribesmen. Then, in 314 bc, [[Bastierra]] build the [[Grand Acqueducts]], series of [[Acqueducts]] and [[irrigation]] across core lands of the Hellenist.

 

[[File:Marcus Aurelius Denarius2.jpg|thumb|[[Bastierra]] in a Hellenica Coin. |alt=|130x130px|left]]In [[Bastierra]]'s time, the Hellenist had transformed from a tribal despotism, into a bureaucratic empire. The nation now had an established political bodies. Life became more complicated, as social norms and national laws were flourishing. The realm expands and stabilized its borders, ensuring a long time of peace and prosperity.

 

Although elected counselors and advisors already existed during Eleana's rules, the embodiment of the [[Senate of the Shallah|Senate]] and [[Congress of the Shallah|Congress]] of the Shallah are ratified inside Æthura's [[Book of The Century]]. The Senate was a freely elected body of 300 people. Though everyone principally can be a Senator, only the rich are able to fund campaigns ([[Prætoras]]) across the nation. The Congress on the other hand, was elected by the Senate. Both Congress and Senate serve for a 6 years term and can be reelected multiple times. The realm also owned national institutions, with its own branches regionally. The two institutions that were the main procurers of the government are the [[Magisterone]] and [[Milatireire]].

 

[[File:Rm Fr.jpg|thumb|[[Carniol]], a giant forum in Creçoré where Senators and Congressman confide. |252x252px]]After the death of Bastierra on 292 bc, Eleana's line ended. [[The Succescion Wars]] that followed his death rampage the country for three years, until [[Carmac]] [[Dæstan]] won the siege of [[Creçoré]]. He was crowned Shallah in Eranorth, as the [[Emerald Palace]] in Creçoré has been destroyed during the brutal siege.

 

Taxes were levied twice as many as during the time of Galantir. This caused poverty soar, and the bureaucratic offices to be burdened. As such, the realm expansion halted; though its just reached its peak size.

 

[[File:Stepan Blois.jpg|thumb|Ærica's fresco, inside the [[Temple for Caron]] |230x230px|alt=|left]]Arround 64 bc, a new faith began to be established surrounding Creçore. Some historian argues about the truth behind the exhibition and expansion of this new faith, but its generally agreed that it was brought by [[Abraham]] son of [[Lucca]]. Abraham began his preaching around that year, and soon enough there were huge number of masses hearing him. Most people argues that Abraham's doctrine of sharing and equalities were very popular among the growing masses of poor across the country. And it is also agreed that Abraham's popularity derived the corrupt senators to act against him.

 

The Senate ordered Abraham to be hanged, but during the execution process, he made a great speech called [[The Prophecy of Angelas]] (possibly referring to the [[Temple of Angelas]] near his execution ground). The executioner hanged him just right after his speech finished. The crowd suddenly lifted in uproar, and Eranorth was engulfed in rebellion for the entire year of 61 bc. The rebellion soon retreated outside the city, and began [[The Kinstrive]]. In the end of the year, the senators fled the city to Anuriel and called for mobilization.

 

[[The Kinstrive]] was a series of peasant and religious dissent that followed the execution of Abraham son of Lucca on 61 bc, all the way to 1 ac. The rebellion that had started in Eranorth quickly spread across the realm. These dissent were not as large as wars, and its mostly consisted of skirmishes and ambushes between disorganised peasant armies, and the Senators private retinues, until the advent of the [[Great Revolt]]. During The Kinstrive, the Senators achieved their ultimate power, as the realm is leaderless. A kind of an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/oligarchy oligarchy] formed as they consolidated more powers to defeat the dissent.

 

 

The Kinstrive ended when The Great Revolt broke out across the nation, led by a former General, [[Vinitius Clint]] in 5 bc.

[[File:Vinitius Clint.jpg|thumb|236x236px|[[Vinitius Clint]]'s statue in [[Creçore]].]]The unstable times of the strives, and the amassing of powers on the hands of the senators led into growing dissatisfaction among the people. There were growing inequality between the elites and the commoner, as trades and commerce bean to halt. Around this time, the eponymous semi-mythical general, [[Vinitius Clint]] led his [[Bands of Traitors]] into the first act of open rebellion against the senators. Clint led his bands into a series of successful raids against senatorial possession during the strives, until the people of Creçoré requested him to protect their city from tax collectors. The refusal of Creçoré to give their annual taxes was followed by an entire army marching toward the city around 5 bc. Clint and his men rallied the population of the city, and managed to defend it for five days before evacuating the entire city into the countryside.

 

Vinitius Clint's campaigns culminated into the [[Battle of Anuriel]], and the subsequent [[Siege of Anuriel]]. During the twenty days of the siege, the senators continues to debate on what action should be taken. On the twenty first day of the siege, the [[Fire of the Carniol of Anuriel|Carniol of Anuriel]] was on fire and immediately destroyed by the flames. The senate withhold anymore meetings, and on the thirtieth day of the siege, they surrenders.

 

After the fall of the Hellenic Realm, Vinitius Clint and the former senators who were part of the [[Golden Sphere]] formed the Clintinian Republic. The Republic was modeled after the Hellenic Empire, but with some reforms, codified into the historic [[Anuriel Testament]]. The Golden Sphere quickly formed the new [[Congress of The Republic]], and drawn up constituencies across the realm, while Vinitius Clint was appointed as its first Consul. One of the Congress' first legislation was to extend Clint's terms to unspecified amount of time, making Clint consul for live. But Clint didn't live pretty long after the Republic was founded. He died on 12 ac, and the Congress reconstituted terms limit for Consulate after that. After Clint's death, the Republic began the annual celebration of the Siege of Creçore, on the 27th of March. This celebration persisted to this day, as the [[Democracy Day]].

[[File:Merchant's Guild Bank.jpg|left|thumb|[[The Merchant's Guild Bank]] headquarter in [[Anuriel]], now the [[National Museum of Money]].]]

The continuous political upheaval and constant prosecution raids led to the republic bankrupted in 504 ac. The bankruptcy resulted in The Merchant's Guild Bank intervention on the Congress. The Bank received three permanent seats and even some veto powers over financial issues. This sudden takeover upsetted the people and outraged the right, which began to fell out with the Congress, and began to militarised the people. Tension was high between 505 to 510, but constant debate and an end to prosecution stopped the nation falling into civil war. The right continuously debates the left, while protecting the Monarchist who supported the right. While the left, wishes for a weak Congress and strong Consulate. continue to give more power for The Bank, intending to lessen the power of the Congress. When The Bank was finally given a share for the writing of budget in 524, the right finally left the Congress in protest, and their supporters rallies into military groups surrounding their constituencies. The next two year saw negotiations failed, and the nation plunged into crises. Unable to find common ground, while also trying to stop any large scale war to occurs, [[Consul Sedgwick Alleyton]] decided to terminates both offices for undecided periods. Local constituencies saw it as the end of the central government, and began to rule themselves locally. The republic was in essence already died by 527 ac. The three groups, the right, left, and Monarchist disintegrated into smaller groups and created their own domains.

 

[[File:King Henry V at the Battle of Agincourt.jpg|thumb|283x283px|[[Duke Abercromby of Nallewbridge|DTissandrae Abercromby of Nallewbridge]] fighting against [[Duke Hamilton|DTissandrae Hamilton]]'s forces, 1044 ac]]The earlier times of the hundred states period were not properly documented. There were fragments of information, suggesting continuous small warfare and skirmishes between smaller states as the three factions of the Republic disintegrated even more. Architectures of these times were also scarce, as the people of this time seemingly maintains to use the buildings from the Republican era. There were reports of hunger, disease, and even some major plague outbreak between 600 to 800 ac. After 800, there were more gaps of information, but a lot of foreign artifacts and battlefield remains, suggesting foreign raiders, or outright invaders from other place. Historian seemingly couldn't conclude on any matter regarding what really happened between 800 to 1000 ac.

 

After 1000 ac, information became plenty once more. The years between 1000 to 1300 ac were filled with local expansion and increase in population. Cities like [[Anuriel]], [[Eranorth]], and [[Creçore]] began to regain its status as centers of the realm, while bigger states start to annexs the smaller one. Few people were mentioned, but those who were mentioned had commited great deeds, or crimes. Such story, like the story of [[Duke Hamilton of Amber|DTissandrae Hamilton of Amber]] that manages to expand into a quarter of the realm, before splitting it up for his sons in his death bed. Other less glorious, such as the story of the [[Miracle Bandits]], led by [[Adam Darian]], who stupidly tries to steals Eranorth's coffer in the midnight of the Democracy Day (at that time called Clintinian Day) ended up jailed for good.

 

[[File:Château de Villandry 01746.JPG|left|thumb|[[Castle Grand Marie]], with its pioneering formal gardens, built around 1450 ac.]]

The hundred states period encompasses the time of the spread of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/renaissance renaissance] ideals throughout [[Urth]] in the 14th century. Even though the nation is disunited, and there were dozens of wars between the small states, art, culture, and scientific discovery were in abundance. Many lords or consulates built magnificence palaces to rival each other, while artistic patronage was at large. Scientific improvements of this time were primarily military in nature, but eventually the knowledge spreads to other parts of live. The peasants in particular raised into new level as then, there were no more citizenship laws; anyone living inside any territory is essentially a subjects to the local's law. This further increase connection for trade and commerce, even rivaling the rates during the Republic times.

There were actually less than a hundred of states in any given time. But, spanning for more than 12 centuries, there were indeed more than hundred states rising and falling in today's territory of Tissandra. Many of these states eventually coalesced into bigger one, most notably the [[Duchy of Ethring]] and the [[Republic of Anuriel]] which almost unifies the entire realm at some point of their existence. Some areas began to be more specialised than other; the eastern lands was predominantly agricultural, until marble quarries were founded during the 13th century and many farmer decided to mines for marble. Other places, such as [[Ethring]], began to produce huge number of textiles and clothing due to their cotton farmlands. By the 17th century, gunpowder was used extensively, and many modern products began to be produced, such as book printing, ink pen, well pumps, and huge wooden sail ships.

 

[[File:Power loom weaving. Wellcome L0011293.jpg|thumb|[[Power loom]], used by textiles industries around 1775 ac.]]

The 18th century saw the [[First Industrial Revolution]], as the discovery of well pumps led to the discovery of machine pumps. The machine pumps were used to pums out water from coal and ore mines, boosting production more than double the times, and making prices for fuel to drop. Many cotraptions were made at this time; the [[Spinning Harry]] (a string threading machine built by [[Harry Jennings]]), and the steam powered factories which sprung out across the realm. Some older institutions, like banks and universities transforms into the modern structure we see now. While locals began to build free schools as education became more important. This era also marked by massive urbanization, as cities swelled in size. Arround 1772, railway network began to extends across the nation, and in 1781 the first steam boat canal was opened. Roads also widened, and the first kind of toll ways was opened between Anuriel and Creçore in 1765.

Although education and income began to increase, the quality of live were actually decreasing, as people working inside factories were lacking protection. Many accident happens, while coal and iron soot began to affect worker's health. Child labour was extensive to, and they were also exposed with lacks of protection to. There were no regulations, and many profiteers try to use this lack of government intervention to amass wealth as much as possible, culminating into the return of the Oligarchy as these people began to assert political influence over financial ones.

 

[[File:Berlin, Alte Nationalgalerie, Adolph Menzel, Krönung von König Wilhelm I in Königsberg.JPG|thumb|Coronation of [[King Charles XXVI]] as the King of Tissandra, 1863]]

Neverthelles, the disparates states finally decrease in number, as duchies and republics increase in power and size. The [[Duchy of Eranorh]] started a ferocious conquest and diplomatic annexations throughout the 15th and 16th century. They aggressively marries off their members of Dynasty, the [[House of Chalois]], to form alliances, and to annex far away lands. The shrewd practice managed to bring half of the realm into the Duchy's command. By the year 1701, The nation was half unified under Eranorth. During this time, the [[Palace of Glass]] was built in the suburbs of Eranorth to showcase the might of the DTissandrae. When the Palace is finished in 1714 ac, during the time of [[Duke Charles XXVI|DTissandrae Charles XXVI]], he coronated himself inside the palace as the first King of the descendants of Tissa; forming the [[Kingdom of Tissandra]]. The lords, mayors, consuls and locals already under Eranorth's sway subsequently approves his coronation. But the southwestern part of the realm denies the coronation, and declares Charles' claim unfounded. They gathers to form the [[Coalition|Coalition for Tissandra]], headed by the [[President of Anuriel]] (formerly Consul of Anuriel). The two factions maintain their cohesion throughout the rest of the 18th century, until the middle of the 19th century, with each claiming to be the rightful government for Tissandra. But only after Anuriel formally annexed all of the Coalition's members and forms the [[Republic of Tissandra]] in 1864, hostilities between the two nation escalated into all out war.

 

[[File:Thure de Thulstrup - L. Prang and Co. - Battle of Gettysburg - Restoration by Adam Cuerden.jpg|left|thumb|[[Battle of Greenfields]], the last battle of the [[First Civil War]] on its fourth day (8th of March 1868).]]

The First Civil War lasted for more than 3 years between 1865 to 1868, resulting in 500,000 casualties, and almost 150,000 deaths. The war was primarily fought among the borders, with each side trying to invade the others. There were four stages of the war, according to historian. The stages are : [[The Gulf Campaign]], [[The Massif Central Campaign]], [[The Highland Campaign]], and [[The Greenfields Campaign]].

The winter of 1867 saw only small skirmishes with no major battles, as both sides are preparing for a last attempt to invade the other. The last phase of the war, The Greenfields Campaign, was a series of intelligence confusion and miss information that led into both army march into one another route. The [[Battle of Greenfields]] lasted for five days (4th to 9th of March 1868), resulted in almost 10,000 casualties. The battle ended in a draw, as both troops agreed into a cease-fire. A truce of 50 years was signed on the 11th of March 1868.

 

[[File:HMS Devastation (1871 ship).jpg|thumb|286x286px|[[HMS Avery]], the first steam powered battleship around 1892.]]

The fifty years of truce between the Kingdom and the Republic of Tissandra were colloquially known as the East-West Divides. The period saw the [[Reconstruction Era]] between 1868 to 1888 on both nations, and also the advents of the [[Second Industrial Revolution]]. The Reconstruction Era brought the people of the Kingdom and of the Republic more closer than ever as both crossed the border regularly, but seemingly divides the political entity of both nations even more. There were now staunch movement for unification, and political parties on both sides began to coordinate joint events between the two halves. This distressed both the absolutist King of Tissandra, as well as the fanatic egalitarian of the Republic of Tissandra, who began to broadcast propaganda through the newly invented radios and newspapers.

The Second Industrial Revolution saw gas lights, radio signal, and cable telephones invented. These inventions allows factories to run 24 hours a day, and also increased the productivity and the livelihood of the markets with the advent of real time stock exchange. New regulations were put on both nations, to protect the safety and health if the workers. But laws regarding minimal wages and social benefits were still non-existent. Around this time the socialist ideals were brought to Tissandra from abroad. This, and the following [[Communist Manifesto]], brought far left politics to the nation, opposing both Conservatives of the Kingdom, and the Liberals of the Republic. Many urban workers joined these ideals, and form joint parties, such as the [[Socialists for a United Tissandra Movement Party]], the [[Commune of Tissandra]], and the [[United Worker's Front]]. This angers the Conservative and the Liberals alike, who began to legislate laws against worker union and socialist dogma.

 

In 16th of April 1914, negotiations started in [[Varreylaigh]], a village in the border, to determines the outcomes of the 50 years truce that will ends in 1918. The negotiations ended in failure when both the Kingdom and the Republic demanded each other subjugation. The subsequent failure culminated into a heated debate between the two leaders of the delegations, [[Prince Maximilian VII]], [[King Ludwig XXII]]'s cousin, and Minister of Foreign Affairs for The Republic of Tissandra, Retired Major General [[Richard Heather]]. The problem became personal when a duel challenge was proposed, and both men agreed. The duels, took place on 18th of April 1914 and resulted in both men died. The Prince's bullets hit the Minister's chest rather quickly. But when the Prince turned his back, the Minister, whom already laying in the floor, shoot his pistol directly to the prince's head. The duels became a diplomatic crises between the two nations. The Royal Family quickly distributes propaganda, demanding justice over the Prince's live, while in the Republic, the family of the minister, and the cabinet members started touring the nation demanding an action. After tensions and diplomatic back and forth, on 28th of July 1914, rifle shots began on the borders.

 

On the 17th of June 1918, [[truce]] was finally signed between the two nations, and all armed forces inside both country, troops, militias, and policeman disbanded themselves to prevents another armed conflict. The following 5 moths is entirely dedicated to disbands the former governmental institutions of both nations, relinquished all titles and returning normality toward the economy. The new [[Constitution of Tissandra]] was formulated (7th of August 1918), new currency was acknowledged and the [[National Bank of Tissandra]] was founded (12th of September 1918), redrawing of regional division was conducted (21st of September 1918), and the redistribution of land for the people, especially for those who have fought in the war was also agreed (16th of October 1918). Reconstruction were already on their way when the [[Treaty of Angelas]] was signed on 11th of November 1918, in front of the Old [[Temple of Angelas]], where Abraham was executed 18 centuries ago. The treaty unites both nations under a mixed government; a Constitutional Monarchy of Tissandra, to allows the stability of the Kingdom of Tissandra to coalesce with the freedom and democracy of the Republic of Tissandra. Abraham Cornellius was declared was declared as the First Prime Minister of the Constitutional Monarchy, why the family of [[House von Wittelsbach|von Wittelsbach]], the family that lived on both sides of the borders and remains staunchly neutral for the entirety of the war, was selected as the new Royal Family of Tissandra. [[King Gustav I]] was crowned on the 1st of December 1918 in the Palace of Eranoth. As at the time, Anuriel was badly damaged and the memory of the Massacre of Anuriel was still close, the government had chosen Eranorth as the capital city. 11th of November is now celebrated as the Day of Unification.

 

 

[[File:Ford 1921.jpg|left|thumb|A worker proudly standing in front of his car, 1921.]]

Post Civil War Tissandra was predominantly dominated by the Second Reconstruction. The Second Reconstruction was one of the most ambitious public program in histories, as it saw the complete revitalization of Anuriel, the rebuilding of roads, bridges, and other public facilities. The Second Reconstruction also saw the rebuilding and rejuvenation of old classical buildings from the Clintinian Era, all the way to the Hellenic era. Around this time, the massive Anuriel Skyscrapers began to sprung out, as workforce was in abundance. the 1920s's and 1930's was considered a golden time, the so called the Polished Era, many Tissandran family rose into wealth and and social gaps began to decrease, as ordinary workers can afford more and more things to buy. The 1930's saw the Third Industrial Revolution sprung out, as the discovery of Assembly Line and new labour regulations pressed prices to all time low, that there were disputably no homeless people in Tissandra by the year 1935. In 1935, the [[Tissandra Broadcasting Company]] was founded, making radio debutes and newspaper at the same time. During these times, ordinary people finally can afford to buy transportations while commercial flights was also gaining prominence among the rich. Around this year, [[Tissandra Oil Discovery|oil was discovered]] on the western areas, and the nation soon built refineries across the land. Oil became the largest exports for Tissandra for the remainder of the century.

The years of 1940's saw the House Boom, as properties were built and bought all across the nation. Around this time, commercial apartments began to be advertised, while the first commercial television station was founded; the [[Anuriel Post]]. The television station was soon rivaled by TBC new branch, the [[Tissandra Television Station]]. Commercial advertising began to increase in activity, leading to massive commercialization of the economy. The [[Eranorth Stock Exchange]] was founded in 1948 to help sustains the increasing competitiveness of commerec inside the nation. It was soon followed by the Hikaru reclamation, a gigantic project to enlarge [[Port August]] into a huge trading port. The 50s and the 60s saw a lot of technological advancement across [[Urth]], and saw the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/bretton_woods_system Bretton Woods System] implemented, the system that finally frees trade from threats and lower the cost of shipping. Commercial telephone companies was gaining traction in the 60s, leading the so called Cable SkiesYears because of so many telephone cables above Tissandra's roads. This led to the [[Road and Cable Act of 1968]], that managed to burry the majority of the cables with the water and the gas pipes under the roads by the year 1971.

 

[[File:Picadilly circus.jpg|alt=|thumb|[[Mallaby Square]], [[Creçore]] in 1979.]]

The 70's was known as the [[Jeannette Era]], as the 16th Prime Minister, [[Marge Jeannette]] managed to stay in office and her party, the win three consecutive elections. Marge Jeannette most notable decision was the founding of the [[Reserves for Native Yasterian Act of 1972|Reserves for Native Yasterian]]. Even though her time in office was surrounded by corruption scandals, the scandals has been disproven by the [[Supreme Court of Tissandra|Supreme Court]]. The time was known for the first Tissandra mission to outer space, in 12th of July 1973 when the sattelite, [[Abraham Cornellius Geostationery Satetelite|Abraham Cornellius Geocom]] was put into orbit by a native Tissandra shuttle. It was also known for the increase on youth rebelliousness, and the so called 'punk era'. Many expressionist art appears at this times, while the [[Jazz|jazz musics]] is being sidelined by a more expressionist kind of musics. The time also saw the building of the Home Blocks, the high rise bland apartments that was built to accomodate the increasing number of homeless workers. The construction of toll ways was prevalent, with the completion of the [[6th Tissandra Inter-Highway|6th]], [[7th Tissandra Inter-Highway|7th]], [[9th Tissandra Inter-Highway|9th]], and [[12th Tissandra Inter-Highway|12th]]. leading the projects.

The booming times was over when the [[1998 Crash|loan market fails]] in early 1998 due to the ever increasing interest rates and the ever heavier stock price. The nation was plunged into recession for the next entire 1998 and 1999. Prime Minister [[Holy Atwell]] was forced to resigned after her cabinet failed to pass the [[Recession Act of 1998]]. On November 21st 1999, the new Prime Minister, [[John Bolsoir]], managed to past the [[New Deal Act of 1999]], that included heavier regulations for stock price tag, and an indexed national interest rate to prevent another loan market crash. The cabinet also finally surrenders all monetary powers and the decission to print money to the [[National Bank of Tissandra]] through the [[First Amendment of The Constitution of Tissandra|First Amendment of The Constitution]]. The amendment also shifted the exports from oil dominated, into manufactured goods orientation.

 

[[File:Government building Rockhampton1.jpg|thumb|[[Anti Corruption Comission Headquarter]], Eranorth.]]

The nation revived quickly after the passing of the New Deal Act of 1999, but unemployment had already soars and many businesses had already bankrupt. Throughout the 2000 to 2005, the nation passed welfare acts to reduce the unemployment and rebuilt the economy. The most revolutionazing acts were the [[Free School Act of 2002]], [[Medical Benefits Act of 2004]], and the [[House Mortgage Act of 2005]]. The nation thightened the budget even more, and pays the welfare policies predominantly form oil revenue. These welfare policies led to the eradication of illiteracy and the high quality of life standard in Tissandra. But the welfare policies had made alot of money must channels through the government, and many corruption scandals appears. To this day, Tissandra was still considered as having a high level of corruption. The [[Anti Corruption Comission]] which was founded on 2006 to battle the corruptions was pretty successful on exposing many scandals, albeit with a still limited powers and slightly lower budget than any similar department on Urth. The media also plays its role well on exposing corruption scandals. The [[No Comission University Act of 2016]] was feared for giving the Ministry of Education and Culture too much power and was much debated on the media. But it has been declared that the money is not under the Ministry's direct responsibility, but is under the National Bank of Tissandra and the Anti Corruption Comission scrutinies.

The Constitutional Monarchy of Tissandra is now a member of [[The East Pacific]], and has been in contact with its member states.

 

 

According to the [[Constitution of Tissandra]] chapter 2 sentence 1: ''The Constitutional Monarchy of Tissandra is divided into Provinces, which will be further divided into Regnencies and/or Municipalities, which will be further divided again into Districts. These division shall be regulated by statutes and acts of the Parliemant based on propositions from the government''. Tissandra maintains a strong devolved policy, and so has a pretty strong regional and local governments. Tissandra first level division are :

Districts are administrative in nature and only serves for administering the populace's documents, asigning and making ID cards, and managing local police and firefighter offices. [[District]] is headed by [[District Head]] which is appointed by the Regent or the Mayor of the district's Regency or Municipality.

As of 2017, voter turnout was 81percent during recent elections and are considered pretty high among the members of [[The East Pacific]].

 

[[File:International Court of Justice.jpg|left|thumb|[[Supreme Court of Tissandra]], Eranorth.]]

Tissandra uses a [[civil legal]] system, wherein law arises primarily from written statutes; judges are not to make law, but merely to interpret it (though the amount of judicial interpretation in certain areas makes it equivalent to case law in a common law system). Basic principles of the rule of law were laid in the [[Human Rights Act of 1919]] (which was, in turn, largely based on the laws of the Republic of Tissandra). In agreement with the principles of the act, law should only prohibit actions detrimental to society. As [[Bourdierre Mryland]], one of the first seven Judges of the Supreme Court wrote about the management of prisons: ''Freedom is the rule, and its restriction is the exception; any restriction of Freedom must be provided for by Law and must follow the principles of necessity and proportionality.'' That is, Law should lay out prohibitions only if they are needed, and if the inconveniences caused by this restriction do not exceed the inconveniences that the prohibition is supposed to remedy.

Tissandra does not recognise religious law as a motivation for the enactment of prohibitions. Instead, the laws concerning religions are those who are meant to preserves the freedom of religions inside Tissandra. There are laws for racism and segregation too. Freedom of religion is constitutionally guaranteed by the [[Human Rights Act of 1919]].

Postwar Tissandran foreign policy has been largely shaped by membership of The East Pacific. Since the 2000's, Tissandra has developed close ties with member states although were frequently interrupted by times of isolation because of the constant changes in the administration.
