Tissandra is a country in the middle of Yasteria Major continent. The area extended from the Hikaru's Gulf, to the West into the Yasterian Range. It borders the Caliphate of Packilvania to the east, and Alva to the northwest. The core area of Tissandra consisted of two major cities; Annuriel and Eranorth, with population of around 38 million people.

The history of Tissandra began with the rise of the Hellenistic Civilization around 700 bc. The divided tribes united under the Eranorth Tribe and began the Pax Hellenica around the year 500 bc. The Hellenic Empire occupied much of Yasteria Major for 5 century, before the Great Revolt, led by Vinitius Clint in 1 bc overthrew the despotic hierarchy, and founded the Clintinian Republic. The Republic downfall in 527 led to the Hundred States era that lasted until 1865, when the First Civil War ended in a stalemate and divided the realm into the East West Division that persisted well into the 20th century. The two state then clashed on the devastating Second Civil War that broke out in 1914. The unified modern nation today is the result of the Angelas Treaty signed in 1918 to end the war.

Etymology

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 succeeded it, the name came from the Legend of Hellen, where supposedly Tissa, the God of Earth was Helen's first true love. And so, universally accepted by the Hellenist, that the entirety of their people were the descendants of Tissa and Hellen. The name Tissandra is not commonly used during the Clintinian Era and the Hudred States Era. During the Clintinian Republic, Tissandra was only used by foreigners to refers the people that still worship Hellenic Religion, while most Children of Abraham adherents were called Clintinian, or Abramaic. Internally, everyone called themselves as Clintinian.

The Hundred States Era further drains the usage of Tissandra, as during this time, there was a surge of Hellenic converted into the Children of Abraham. Peoples usually atributed themselves into local lordships or regions, and so the name of Tissandra fell in popularity during the early and middle periods of the era. During the rennaisance, prominent philosophers used this name in their works, such as Robert Bertolli's 'People of Tissandra', and Jaem Cato's 'Mighty Swords', both published in 1456. Both books called for national unity, and set trends throughout the region, inciting the ideals of unification.

The first official use of the name came before the First Civil War when the Duke of Eranorth took the title, 'King of Tissandra', which in ancient hellenic means 'Descendants of Tissa'. This act quickly followed by the formation of the Republic of Tissandra. The usage throughout the pre-civil war era, and post-civil war era was used as a propaganda for unionist factions and political parties between the two halves of the nation, hence it quickly gained traction as the most popular way of referring to the entirety of the nation, as early as 1865.

History

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

Pre-Historical Era

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. The tribes were peacefully coexist, with some evidents showed trading and migration happened between the tribes. Some artefacts from this periods including casted irons and clay potteries were found in Yasteria's interiors, even though these goods were only produced by the coastal tribes. Some remnants of Ibex bones were also found around a former coastal tribe village near Annuriel, although Ibexs are only found in inner Yasteria, suggesting a burgeoning barter enterprise.

The mainland tribes were mostly migrational in nature, although they did setles and cultivate some corps between two to three months. These migrational tribes is thought to came from nearby areas that now consisted of Packilvania, while the coastal tribes were most likely came from further areas, with some suggesting that the coastal tribes were seeafarers from the islands of Peregrinia. This ideas was put forward firstly by Professor Natalie Watcher from the University of Anuriel. She pointed at the mainly maritime culture of the coastal tribes, and the different physical appearance they have with the mainland tribes. However, another theory persisted, mainly among the supporters of the Union of Tissandra, that both tribes were descended from the same mainland tribes of Yasteria.

The tribes lived in the area for roughly 10,000 years as neolithic farmers, or as hunter gatherers for the mainland tribes. The coastal tribes built many villages and evidently, a complex of structures that resembles a city just outside Creçore, the Anerimian Structures which dated back to 2,000bc. These were mainly agricultural and fishing communities, with rarely any distinction between one tribe and another. Apart from casted irons and clay potteries, many lapis lazuli jewelry were found especially around Anuriel. Gold was rarely found from this era, as the coast of Tissandra lacks precious ore. Gold was more prevalent among the artefacts of the mainland tribes, as their homeland was close to the gold ore concentrations along the Yasterian Range. Gold artefacts found in coastal areas further proves that both tribes did had a flourishing trade. Evidently, the coastal tribes were much more advanced than the mainlanders, and so they were the ones who developed sophistication in information exchanges that culminated into early Old Hellenic writing. The earliest Old Hellenic writing was found on the Alita tablet which was placed on the side of a huge monolithic tablet erected in Eranorth, called the King's Finger.

Hellenic Era

The Alita Tablet was made by a migrating coastal people called the Erathi around 800bc. The reason for this migration is unknown, but the migration seems coincided with the founding of Eranorth. The tablet described a semi mythical king, Æthélfled, as the one who led these people to migrates inward. The tablet said that Æthélfled was the son of Alty, who was herself a great grandson of Tissa, the Goddes of The Earth and Hellen, the God of The Sky. This claims proves that the Hellenic Religion was already widely spread, particularly among the coastal people. The tablet then described that Æthélfled died on the Yasterian Range when he led his men across during a hurricane. A folklore developed from this story, that often said that the hurricane was unnatural, and was started by Æthélfled's brother, Æron. Æron continued his brother's conquest, acording to the tablet, and managed to subjugates a huge area surrounding the city of Eranorth. His conquest was cut short by Æthélfled's heir, Eleana, who deposed and hung him for treason around 700bc.

During the reign of Eleana, she formulated the first codified law inside Tissandra, the so called Codex Maxima (The Final Verdict). She dubbed herself the first Shallah (parent) of the Hellenic followers. During this time, the sun dial was also invented, and calculation of dates and times began, even though in a very simplistic way, formulating into Hellenic Calendar that was personaly aproved by Eleana. Archeology evidents showed that the first intentional road building project was carried in Eranorth, during Eleana's reign, becoming the first public work project ever be carried out in Tissandra's history. The Codex Maxima was found right behind the Alita Tablet, on the other side of the King's Finger. The Codex surprisingly filled with ideas that can be considered revolutionary for the time. It divided the administration into executives, legislatives, and an independent judiciary branch, suggesting that political philosophy was thriving at the time. It also stated the main rights and responsibility of the people, and a tax system even though not as advanced as the later stages of the civilization. The third side of the King's Finger, showed not an atached tablet, but a writing directly carved into the monolith structure. This side is called the Hero's side, as it listed battle victories and the commanders that led Hellenic mens in these victories. The list provided a great timeline for the expansion of the Hellenic Civilization, and also proves that most of the Hellenic expansions were carried out during Eleana's reign. According to a clay tablet found in Anuriel, the Tablet of The Kings, Eleana's five direct descendants were known as the Phillosopher Shallas. The tablet described these five kings as benevolent and intelligent rulers that bring about a golden age in the civilization. The tablet listed King Araman, King Dunain, King Athura, King Conquitara, and King Bastierra as the philosopher kings. The philosopher kings ruled for almost 400 years. The Hero's side is still listing victories during the time of the philosopher kings, but the numbers isn't as many and the battle results aren't as glorious as the time during the reign of Eleana. The Hero's side listed that around 400bc, King Æthura led the Hellenic once more across the Yasterian Range, and managed to surpass the deadly passes. He would gone to conquer most of the tribes west of the ranges. He and then his son, King Conquitara moved eastward and won another victory against the mainland tribes. Finaly, around 300bc, King Bastierra won a final victory against the mainland tribe of Seducca possibly in an area that is now a part of Alva.

The reign of King Bastierra is the most well documented of all of the philosopher kings, and even of Eleana's own reign. The main chronicler of Bastierra's reign was a mainland confidant of the King, Athura the Red Faced, and the political philosopher Andryth of Anuriel. Both chronicler agreed that Bastierra's reign was a kind of a golden age for the Hellenic Civilization. For 300 years now, the Hellenic people had been transforming from a despotical tribesmen into a bureaucratic empire. Athura wrote in his chronicle that Bastierra was fond of building grand buildings. Athura was present when Bastierra ceremoniously blessed the Grand Acqueduct. The biggest project Bastierra carried out was the founding of a brand new city as his summer capital in the southern part of the realm. The city was named Alclairçreoe (the white marble), but the name now changed into a more comprehendable name of Creçore (the marble) referring to the many white marbles used during the construction. Andryth was somewath more critical to the construction of the city. as he stated in his book 'Enlightened Kings' that the projects was an example of an un-enlightened king, as it drains taxes of the people. However, the city center was finished around 250bc, and Athura said that the king was 'fast to move in' to the new city. Historian agreed that the project did cost a lot of money, and evident showed a decrease in numbers of trade activity throughout the civilization's territory. Around this time, Bastierra also christened some terms for the political system of the civilization. Although elected counselors and advisors already existed during Eleana's and her descendants' reigns, the terms Sænatu Princapa (Senate of The People) and Aconguiles Princapa (Congress of The People) was only conceived during Bastierra's reign. The right and responsibility, as well as the elections of these legislature bodies were prescribed inside the Terminal Corata (Testament of Conduct), Bastierra's own version of Codex Maxima. But the king was still a very powerful position, as the Terminal Corata stated that the king can 'dismiss everyone' he found unsuitable, although laws and taxes was still the dominion of the legislature.

The Dæstan Dynasty

After the death of Bastierra around 200bc, Eleana's line ended as Bastierra didn't marry and he was the only son of King Conquitara. The descendants of Dæstan, the second son of King Dunain, claimed the throne and the Senate did approve the claim. But the descendants of Arima, the daughter of King Araman contested the claim, and present their own family as the rightful ruler. The Senate and Congress of the realm quickly divided into factions, supporting either the Dæstan or the Arima. The division was followed by a succession war that was estimated to last for at least three years. The sources were unclear about the times of this conflict, but Athura's chronicle did said about the war lasting for a 'brief long time'. The war ended after Carmac Dæstan captured Creçore and most of the members of the Amira dynasty. The Amiras were repotedly exiled into the interior, culminating in today's urban myth of a rightful Amira King still living in the western areas of Tissandra. After the war, Carmac moved the capital back to Eranorth.

Chronicler and writers of the Dæstan era didn't viewed the era as a golden age anymore. Andryth of Anuriel's disciple, Conga Leslie, writes some critical judgment against the Dæstan, spesificaly toward King Carmac for his 'brutal' war and a punitive tax law that Carmac raised during his reign. Reportedly, the King now set his own tax system, and dismissed the Senate and Congress as an advisory body. However the conditions were improving after Carmac's death, and his brother, Galantir, took the throne. Galantir returned the original rights of the legislature, and restarted the military expansion of the realm to subjugated the interior tribes that seceded during the succession war.

During the expedition eastward around 100bc, Galantir Dæstan died. His son, Ærica was reportedly still 7 year old when the tragic death occured. Acording to Conga's chronicle, the elites inside the Senate quickly took over the King's responsibility and set up an interegnum administration, even though Bastierra's Terminal Corata stated that a king can be of any age. The senate reimplemented Carmac's punitive tax system for their own benefit, and began the time that according to Conga's chronicle as the Time of Troubles.

The Children of Abraham

In the year 50bc, for the first time in Tissandra's history, a monotheistic believe was practiced. The new faith began to spread in Creçore and its surrounding. Some historian still argues about the real events surrounding the spread of this new faith, but its generally agreed that it was brought by Abraham son of Lucca. Abraham began his preaching after he was reportedly strangled by a demon on his way home. He was said to be acquited by an angle, and then was brought into the throne of the One God, and christened as an emissary and a father figure for the people. Soon enough many Hellenic believers converts to Abraham's religion and called themselves the Children of Abraham. Abraham preaches about peace and caring, and most importantly equality were very popular among the people, and he garnered the name The Resolver. His preaches were written into the Book of Essence, and were quickly spreads throughout the realm. Abraham garnered reputation and quickly became and influential figure. This however made him a lot of enemies, especially among the Hellenic Priest who called him 'Tissa's own temptation to test mankind's resolve'. The political figures were not impressed as well, especially with Abraham's preaches about equality.

Abraham moved from Creçore to Eranorth in the year 42bc. He met with Ærica, and began to teach the young King his teaching. This act was received by the Senate as a brainwashing attempt against the young king. They opposed Abraham's relationship with the king, and even terrorize Abraham in the streets. The most notorious senator at that time, Duræni 'The Bloated' began to spread lies and accusations against Abraham, forcing the Senate to order Abraham's imprisonment. Duræni was dubbed 'Satan's representative' by the Children of Abraham adherents. The Senate sent the city bailiffs to arrest Abraham in Eranorth's market on the 7th of Jani (now 6th of July), but unknown to them, Abraham was with Ærica at that time. According to the Stories of Abraham, the bailiffs, possibly didn't know that the young disciple of Abraham was the king himself, knocked out the young man with a club, and arrested Abraham before setting his home ablaze. Its possible that this act was the mortal blow to the king, as he died just a week later.

The Stories of Abraham stated that the Senate blamed the king's death to Abraham, and ordered him to be hanged During the execution process, he reveals his final revelation now called The Prophecy of Angelas stating his forgiveness to anyone wrongly accusing him, and that ordering his 'childrens' to spread his words with love and care to save the world from void of hatred and anger. The executioner hanged him right after his revelation finished. Abraham's execution clearly proved the Senate's corruption and scheming, and resulted into an open strive and military conflicts throughout the next half of the century, usually dubbed The Kinstrive.

The Kinstrive

The Kinstrive was a series of peasant and religious dissent that followed the execution of Abraham son of Lucca that happened from 41 bc to 5 bc. The strive was not a systemized and organized warfare, rather a disoriented act of violences and general disorder pointed toward the Senate. King Ærica's death ended the Dæstan Dynasty, but the Senate didn't appoint any other family to rule, and even began the imprisonment and execution of the descendants of Eleana, primarily againts the Arima Family, resulting in many of the family members to hide. There's little documents and historical proves that describes what really happened in these years. But most sources did mentions general disorder, heightening prices, and food shortages across the nation. There were also mass silencing act against the people, as philosophers and critics of the administration were reportedly quartered and executed for their critics. This alone explains the lack of facts coming from this period.

The natural philosopher, Eldric the Wise who lives through the time of the strive moved to live with the peaceful mainland tribes and gains most of his accounts of the strive from traveling merchants. His accounts aren't complete, but they are the only reliable sources for a definitive explanation of the Kinstrive. Eldric said that there were always mob fires in Eranorth and Creçore, suggesting protest against the senate. He also noted a large number of senator resigned fromtheir post and led new factions agaisnt the corrupt senators. The Congress is weirdly didn't showed up in any of Eldric's account, suggesting that the body was abolished. He also noted that foreign merchants stayed away from the realm's port 'waiting the fires to be putted out'. Eldric didn't went back to hos home in Anuriel until well after the Siege of Creçore.

The Great Revolt

Around 6bc a former general named 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 rich corrupt properties, until the people of Creçoré requested him to protect their city from tax collectors whom by the time organized into armed divisions. The refusal of Creçoré to give their annual taxes was followed by an entire army marching toward the city on 4th of Anery (3rd of April) 5 bc. Clint and his men rallied the population of the city, and defended the city for five days before evacuating the rebels into the countryside.

The Siege of Creçore marks the beginning of the Great Revolt. Clint then started an extensive guerilla wars and skirmishes. The former militants of the strives joined his growing army, and on 4bc, Clint already in possession of 20,000 men. The senate declared Clint as an outlaw inside the National Order Decree of Jani, and that anyone following him will be regarded as traitors. But reportedly there were some senators that were emphatetic to Clint's cause and went as far as to give monetary aids for Clint's army. These senators were dubbed the Golden Sphere senators and became the primary opposition againts the status quo. Mny of these senators resigned and joined Clint's army as commanders, while some stayed to disrupt and delay the senate's campaign against Clint. One of them, Jacques Marie le-Brun, resigned after an open speech that revealed many corruption scandals among the senator, and quickly vanished after the speech. Clint's campaigns across the nation managed to galvanize the peasants and people alike. Soon, the war turned over againts the senate's favor, as peoples took arms and a general strike happened. The 3bc saw the senators losing grips over the situation. One senator, Alflan, was found dead inside the hall of Anuriel's Carniol, resulting into a mass hysteria among the senators.

Vinitius Clint's campaigns culminated into the Battle of Anuriel on the 3rd of Denii (2nd of February) 2bc, in which his army won a descisive victory, routing the entire army of the realm. The battle subsequently followed by the Siege of Anuriel that lasted for twenty days. The senators continued to debate on what action should be taken throughout the siege. On the ninetieth day of the siege, the Carniol of Anuriel was on fire and immediately destroyed by the flames. The senate withhold anymore meetings, and on the next day they surrendered.

Clintinian Republic

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 new laws and edicts, 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. During his reign, Clint didn't participate to much in governance and politics. The only major reform that he passes through was a new calendar system based on the movement of the sun that had been proposed to him by Augusta Summer, an astronomist from Candira.The new callender is now called the Clintinian Calendar and started the counting of years from 1ac (after clint). Clint didn't live 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 Victory Day.

The Republic era showed little to no military expansion whatsoever. The Republic seemingly prefers for an isolationist view in diplomatic terms; The Republic released all vassal states of the former Hellenic Empire and all of the subjugated mainland tribes, leaving it with only half of the Empire's territory. The main endeavor of The Republic was trade, as there were many legislation surrounding trades and wealth management during the duration of The Republic. During the early part of The Republic (before 250 ac), many public works and infrastructures were initiated, resulting in the irrigation system for the once barren Yasterian Range and the western plains. Coastal cities grows in prominence too and many grand public work were achieved in the cities, such as the construction of the Great Port of Anuriel. The next phase of The Republic (250 ac - 526 ac) saw the realm began to sent trade expeditions across Urth. These trade expeditions open The Republic's market to other nations, mainly with the coastal cities that is now Packilvania, and the lands that now constituted Peregrinia. Around 300 ac, the Great Road between Eranorth and Anuriel was built, around the same time with the Giant Aqueducts (prolonged version of Bastierra's Grand Acqueducts) spanning through the nation. This huge endeavor was done with labor forces so large, that the realm gone into budgetary deficit for the first time. The deficit initiated the founding of the first bank of The Republic, The Merchant's Guild Bank. The Bank began to exerts certain influence over The Republic, but mostly beneficial in nature, even though it clearly show the lack of transparency and accountability of The Republic's bureaucrats.

The Republic enters a period of stagnation around 400 ac, resulting in a bloated bureaucracy, and more red tapes. The main contributor of this stagnation was the unreformed Constitution of The Republic, which in turn made the nation helpless to made any innovation or efficiency on its bureaucrats. The bodies of The Republic increased in size, making decisions harder to formulate. This all happens all the while the Congress and the Consulate continues to debate over jurisdiction and responsibilities. These factors ultimately culminates into the 492 Election, on which the nation are splitted into right and left politics. The heated political situation of the year 492 and 493 was further abated by Consul Hannah Marigold and the left's constant attacks to the Congress in general, and to the right in particular. The debates increase the national militancy, and upheavals began to soar in number. Around the year 500, new Monarchist ideas began to emerge, preferring a strong hereditary ruler over a republic of red tapes. The idea gain tractions predominantly in the east side of the nations, around the city of Eranorth. The ideas was fiercely debated by the left, and Consul Adrian Malachus began to prosecute anyone with such idea.

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.

The Hundred States Period

The Dark Ages

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 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.

The Renaissance

The hundred states period encompasses the time of the spread of 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.

The Industrial Revolution

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.

The Late 18th Century

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 Duke. When the Palace is finished in 1714 ac, during the time of Duke 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 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.

The First Civil War

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 Gulf Campaign was the attempt of the Kingdom to invade the Republic and to besiege Anuriel. The campaign was a defeat, as waves after waves of Royalist Army were defeated along the coasts of Hikaru Gulf. The largest battle of this campaign was the Battle of Dren Bridge on 21st of September 1865, where 75,000 Royalist attempted to cross a bridge near Dren Village. The Royalist were forced to retreats and stops the invasion. The Massif Central Campaign was the second attempts of the Royalist to invade the Republican. This campaign was more succesful, and led to the Siege of Aminore, a strategic fortress that supplies Anuriel, on the 9th of April 1866. The siege were called off when the Republican invade the Kingdom in the Highland Campaign. The Highland Campaign was the longest of the other campaigns, leading to the evacuation of Eranorth on 7th of December 1866, and the Battle of Carrack on 16th of February 1867. The Republican was defeated at that battle and had to retreats back to Eranorth. They were once again defeated at the Battle of Marygold on 2nd of April 1867, and forced to withdraw back to the Republican territory in the Long Retreat that lasted until November 1867.

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.

The East-West Divides and The Second Industrial Revolution

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.

The Second Civil War

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.

The war started with the Kingdom advances toward the Fortress of Aminore. The advances was stopped along River La Girona, culminating into the 1st Battle of La Girona that happens for two weeks (4th - 18th of August 1914). The Republican managed to pushed back the Royalist into the borders. But, when the Republican pushed back the Royalist, the Royalist already dug up trenches and fortified positions along the borders. The Republican troops follows suit, and the rest of the war became a Trench Warfare, except on the highlands where there were massive guerilla skirmishes, and at the sea where both nation's navies collide. The stalemate continue for the rest of the year, as only cannons shots were heard on the trenches and both armies still figuring out how to fight on such terrains.

On 15th of February 1915, the Republican started an advance to try to break through the Royalist trenches. The offensive, known as the February Campaign, succeed on breaking through the Royalist defenses, but got bogged down. The Republican occupies the western trenches of the Royalist for the next three months, before the Royalist decided to outflanked the Republican and pushed them out of their trenches. The Royalist, galvanizing on this momentum, pushed forward toward the Republican line, culminating in the 2nd Battle of La Girona on 20th of May 1915. This battle were once again a loss, and the Royalist retreated back to their trenches. In the west highlands and arround Yasteria Range, General David Janisson of the Royal Army conducted series of successful guerilla warfare, and even going as far as to attack the Fort of Camille, the westernmost fortification of the Republican that guarded the flank of the trenches, in 20th of October 1915. His attack was crucial for the outset of the 3rd Battle of La Girona on 22nd of October 1915, where some Royalist units manages to cross the river, and even bombarded Anuriel itself on 30th of October, before retreating back to the river line, and then to their trenches. During the winter, on the sea, both navies of the two nations clashed on small skirmishes, trying to cut of each other's supply lines. There were three large scale skirmishes that occurs between October to December; Battle of Lain's Reef (30th of October 1915), the Battle of Port August (13th of November 1915), and the Battle of Merrimack Stream (2nd of December 1915). All of them ended in stalemate, except with the Battle of Port August, where the Royalist Navy managed to sink three cruisers of the Republican Navy; RNS Abreuve, RNS Dogma, and RNS Carrie.

The situation in 1916 for the Republican seemingly worsened. Their troops were being pushed back on the highland front, while Anuriel is still in shock after the three days of bombardment by the Royalist from 30th of October 1915 to the 33rd of October 1915. Their navy didn't fare well as much, especially after the Battle of Port August. The President, Fisher Croydon, decided to started the bloodiest campaign of the entire war, the Summer Campaign of 1916. The campaign started on 16th of May 1916, and on the 3rd of June 1916, the Royalist army were forced to ditch their trenches all along the border. The great success of the campaign was not without losses; 200,000 casualties was reported across the lines by the end of June, and the reports soon comes to the citizens. Massive outcry ensues across the Republics, and the power of the neutralist and unity parties began to increase. Worker unions across the Republic decided to strikes, and on the 1st of August 1916, the day now known as the Massacre of Anuriel, the workers protested near the Parliament at Anuriel during a session. After a sereis of miscomunication between the protesters and the police, shots were fired and soon there were 664 men and women died on the Central Square. The act started the Sacking of Anuriel, filling the city with destruction, looting, protest, and eventually fires that engulfed a quarter of the city for the next two months. The news of what happened in Anuriel stopped the commanders on the front, while the troops refused to move forward once more. Nevertheless, by the time the Sacking of Anuriel happens, the Republican army's artilleries were already at a fire range to Eranorth. Eranorth was shelled throughout theremainder of the year.

The fate of the Royalist army were as bleak as well. After getting pushed back on all fronts, casualties ammounted to between 80,000 to 100,000. The state of their supply began to waver, as the entire trade lines of the Kingdom were forced into choke points. on the 3rd of August, King Ludwig XXII died after a stroke few days before, persumably after learning of the numbers of the casualties. After the king's death, the government found out that the Crown Prince, Prince Charles XXVII who was serving as a captain on the front, has been missing in action for almost a weak. An exstensive search was started, but no one could find the Prince. No bodies ever being reported to this day. An interregnum was declared, as there were no more members of the House of Chalois in Tissandra. Morales across the Kingdom were at all time low, while the Councellor of the Kingdom began the long process of electing a new dynasty for the Kingdom. The rest of 1916 saw no combat whatsoever, as both sides were terribly scarred.

By February of 1917, dissidents and strikes that plagued the Republic after the Massacre of Anuriel began to mobilize into one group, centered around the United Tissandra Movement led by Abraham Cornellius. on 1st of March 1916, Cornellius demanded the resignation of the cabinet, and a referendum to stop the civil war. Fisher Croydon didn't give any answers, while some members of his cabinet were already fleeing the country. After the news of the Minister of Interior, Amelia Downton's flight to Packilvania on 3rd of March was known, the United Tissandra Movement took arms across the nation and started the March Revolution. The revolution managed to capture cities across the Republic, while the troops in the front and the garrisons in the countryside refused any commands to vanquish the revolutionary forces. The police department were disbanded on 6th of August under protest, as President Croydon ordered them to kill fellow citizens, and soon the National Guard; the last reserve and the defenders of Anuriel, mutinied on the 13th of April. By the 15th of April, Croydon reliquished his title. He was quickly imprisoned, on the charges of incompetence and irresponsibility for the Summer Campaign of 1916. The next two weaks saw politician and people ascociated with the President and his cabinet captured, and some even executed. Some, like Minister of Defense, Harry Boughton, was shot death when he tried to cross the border toward the Royalist army. Croydon and his cabinet members that hasn't been executed already, were shot death at the Anuriel Central Square, on the exact spot where the Massacre of Anuriel had happened.

By the end of 1917, the Republic's fare only getting worst, as supplies are dwindling while strikes hasn't stopped yet. Abraham Cornellius was declared Acting President, and quickly realized that the nation is doomed to annihilation. He then made contact with the Councellor of the Kingdom, to begin some negotiations. The request was denied, as across the Kingdom, people demanded glorious victory, or at least a glorious defeat (Manifestation of Chivalry, signed by King Ludwig XXII before the war started). Cornellius, seeing the nation became increasingly militant while also increasingly hopeless, agrees to allows the Royalist Army to march into Anuriel and other cities of the Republic, and to occupies it, on the ground that the government of the Kingdom dissolves itself to give way for a new unified government from both sides. The term was again rejected, and on 15th March 1918, hostilities errupts again across the front. The Kingdom forces managed to push the Republican back to their initial position after the Battle of Andiers that lasted into 2nd of June. But on 16th of June 1918, a silent Coup happened inside the Councellor of the Kingdom by United Tissandra Movement's members inside the Kingdom, led by General Mallaby Courier. The Councellors were reportedly imprisoned for elongating the war. The people of the Kingdom was reportedly unmoved by the coup, and veign ignorance in general as they were too tired by the time. Food stocks were so low, that rationing had gone to a single meal per day.

Truce of 1918

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 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.

Contemporary Tissandra

Early Contemporary

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, 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 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.

70's, 80's, and 90's

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. Even though her time in office was surrounded by corruption scandals, the scandals has been disproven by the Supreme Court. The time was known for the first Tissandra mission to outer space, in 12th of July 1973 when the sattelite, 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 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, 7th, 9th, and 12th. leading the projects.

The 80's and the 90's saw the digitalization sweeping the nation. Tech giants like Pears and SmallWare rise into prominence and producing large amount of computers. The use of Internet is introduced and many commercial Internet providers began to appears. These internet provider companies was bought by bigger companies like Tissandra Telecom, Exist, and CellOne. The digitalization also improves the real-time Stock Exchange, making a lot of business gaining capital on shorter amount of time. The year saw the University Loan Act of 1987, where College Students were given allowances to help pays of their college. This act saw huge number of diploma graduated in the 90's, and became the back story for today's No Comission University Act of 2016.

The booming times was over when the 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. The amendment also shifted the exports from oil dominated, into manufactured goods orientation.

The 21st Century

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 revolutionizing acts were the Free School Act of 2002, Medical Benefits Act of 2004, and the House Mortgage Act of 2005. The nation tightened 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.

Geography

Administrative Division

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 :

Provinces and Special Region
Provinces	Provincial Capital	Population est. (2019)
Province of Argemont	Creçore	8,250,000
Province of Sierra Monte	Candira	7,653,000
Province of North Byshlia	Muriel	6,240,000
Special City of Anuriel	N/A	5,300,000
Province of South Byshlia	Ardenton	3,955,000
Province of Caroline	Merrimack	3,215,000
Province of Dellington	Almiere	2,520,000
Special Capital Area of Eranorth	N/A	1,250,000
Total Population		38,383,000

A province is headed by a Governor (Eranorth and Anuriel are headed by Mayors), elected directly by the people native to their territory for a term of 5 years, with a limit of 2 terms. The governor is responsible for the welfare of its people, and drafted the Provincial Budget together with the Provincial Council. The Provincial Council is similar with the parliament, only that it is a unicameral body. The Provincial Council is elected for a term of 5 years without any term limits.

All provinces of Tissandra, will be further divided into Regencies and/or Municipalities, except for the two special region, Eranorth and Anuriel, which straightly divided into districts. Regencies are agricultural and rural in nature, while Municipalities are urbanized area with heavy commercial and industrial activity. A Regency is headed by a Regent which is elected for a term of five years with a limit of 2 terms. The Regent headed a cabinet of Supervisor that led their own department (a kin to the ministries of the crown). A Municipality is headed by a Mayor, with similar power, duty, and election process as a Regent. Regencies and Municipalities has their own budget, and can make their own laws since 1999 Constitutional Amendment granted a domestic policy of devolution. The budgets and laws are drafted and signed by the Regional Council, which is similar to the Provincial Council in all but name and position. Regencies and Municipalities also responsible for managing local regional hospitals.

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.

Politics

Government

The Constitutional Monarchy of Tissandra is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentarian system and a strong democratic traditions. The Constitution of Tissandra was approved by negotiations on 7th of August 1918, and since has been amended for one time. The nation is nominally headed by the head of state, the Monarch of Tissandra who wields limited power according to the Royal Prerogatives Act of 1919. The current monarch is King Paverel III von Wittelsbach, coronated on 27th of September 2020. The executive branch consisted of the office of the Prime Minister, which is curretly vacant, and the Ministries of The Crown. Current role of Prime Minister is held by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Johannah Trevors since 20th of September 2020.

The Tissandran Parliament is a bicameral legislature comprising the House of Commons (Asemblourge Nacional) and the House of Lords (Asemblourge Roiale). The House of Commons MPs represent local constituencies and are directly elected for 5-year terms. The Commons has the power to dismiss the government, and thus the majority in the House determines the choice of government. Lords are chosen by an electoral college of intellects, and direct designation from the monarch for 6-year terms (originally 9-year terms). Two third of the Lords are elected by the electoral college, and the rest are appointed by the monarch, with the Prime Minister's suggestion.

The Lord's legislative powers are limited; in the event of disagreement between the two chambers, the House of Commons has the final say. The Government has a strong influence in shaping the agenda of Parliament. Each MPs represent a constituency of about 99,700 people, and directly elected through first past the post system. Even though technically anyone can be elected as representative, only members of a certain party are usually elected. Last independent nominees were elected on the 1998 1995 election. There can only be one candidate for each party in a single constituency, but multiple independent candidacy are allowed. This led to what is called "not so independent" candidates that joins certain political party after they were elected.

After the Second Civil War, there were three main factions in the parliament; the Conservatives, the Liberals, and the Socialits. The Conservative Party (CP) with 46 chairs is an ardent supporters of the monarchy, but until recently the party has waned in power and now under the opposition coalition led by the Liberal and Republican Party (LRP) that controls 141 chairs. The Socialist and Unionist Party (SUP) with just 102 chairs is a minority party, but by combining with the Labour Party of Tissandra (LPT) with 86 chairs and the Green Party of Tissandra (GP) with 10 chairs under a coalition, they gained the majority and managed to secure the government after the 2017 election. After the death of the late Prime Minister Hon. Jonathan McKinley MP, the Socialist and Unionist Party Leader, Hon. Johannah Trevors MP took the role of acting Prime Minister until an election be held inside the government's coalition. The continuous vacancy of the Prime Minister make an uncertain atmosphere of tension between the government and the opposition. As of 2017, voter turnout was 81 percent during recent elections and are considered pretty high among the members of The East Pacific. This has been the result of high political feeling among the populace, and large number of party advertising and political contents on public display. Apart from that, political campaign are widely covered in the media, and a single event can atracts more than a few thousands (especially in debating events).

Laws

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. The basic principles that Tissandra must respect are found in the Human Rights Act of 1919, and the 1918 Treaty of Angelas.

Tissandran law is divided into two principal areas: private law and public law. Private law includes, in particular, civil law and criminal law. Public law includes, in particular, administrative law and constitutional law. However, in practical terms, Tissandran law comprises three principal areas of law: civil law, criminal law, and administrative law. Criminal laws can only address the future and not the past (criminal ex post facto laws are prohibited). While administrative law is often a subcategory of civil law in many countries, it is completely separated in Tissandra and each body of law is headed by a specific supreme court: ordinary cases (which handle criminal and civil litigation) are headed by the Supreme Court of Tissandra and administrative cases are headed by the Constitutional Court of Tissandra. Both ordinary and administrative courts are hierarchical in nature. On regency/municipality level there are the Regional Court for the ordinary cases and the Regional Secretariat Court for the administrative cases. In provincial level, there are Intermediary Court for ordinary cases and Provincial Secretariat Court for administrative cases.

To be applicable, every law must be officially published in the Journal of the Secretary of the State.

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.

Foreign Relations

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. It maintain friendly connection with its neighboors, particularly Packilvania as it is the closest neighbor of Tissandra. Tissandra maintain an open-close relations with other nations, preferring economic and scientific agreements over military and political ones.

The Government maintain a strong neutral sense, and refused to pick sides during times of crises as its own politics are woryingly divided already. The foreign policy of Tissandra is determined by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with suggestions from the Parliament and the Monarch. The current Minister for Foreign Affairs is Hon. Johannah Trevors MP. The Ministry comprised of the Foreign Office, Trade and Agreements Bureau, International Organizational Management, Geopolitical Watcher Office, and Tissandra Representatives to The East Pacific.

Military

Army

For a nation as large as Tissandra, the army didn't have a standing military in large number. Tissandra maintains a force of around 150,000 active duty soldiers, and an additional 200,000 national reserve. Albeit small, Tissandra adopted conscription policy. So, in case of ultimate danger, Tissandra can mobilize up to a quarter of its male population. Tissandra also boast a huge arms manufacturing industry and state of the art military technologies. Tissandra primary arms manufacturer is the government owned Gustav Armament, named after King Gustav II whom still reigning when the company was founded. There are other private arms manufacturers, such as Goldilocks (specializing on hand held armament like pistols and rifles), and BriarPatch (primarily producing armored uniform and upgrading military vehicles). Tissandra Royal Army is organized into the Eastern Theatre, and Western Theatre. Each theatre will be headed by a General. The theatres then will be divided into corps, each headed by a Lieutenant General. The theatre also comprised of some armored units and artilleries. Although further information are classified, It is a general knowledge for Tissandran that there are more forces in the western theatre where they borders the Packilvanian Caliphate. The army is headed by the office of the Chief of Staff of The Army, currently belongs to Gen. Harry Harrison.

Navy

The Royal Navy of Tissandra comprised of 40 ships, and hundreds of civilian-converted ships. The navy boasts 5 cruisers, 10 destroyers, 18 corvettes, 5 submarines and 2 nuclear submarines. The navy is organized into two fleets, each headed by an admiral. The navy serves limited purposes as Tissandra didn't have a long coastline, and mainly deployed in the west to escort incoming trade vessels and defending generally. The cruisers, especially the Hampton-class is the most advanced naval vessels in the nation, owing to its super sensitive radar system, semi-automatic targetting computers, and the large number of automatic and guided missiles silos aboard. All cruisers of The Royal Navy own at least two helipads, with a military hellicopters capable of carying ordinance and for rescue mission. The coast guard boasted hundreds of boats and are also considered part of the royal navy ships. The two nuclear submarines, dubbed the Gold-class were developed during the watchful year of 1979. They were designed by Albert Chardelier, and constructed on Port August. Today, the nuclear submarines only comes out into view during celebrations, as it spends much of the year beneath the sea.

The navy is headed by the Chief of Staff of The Navy, Rear Admiral Jane Allen, the first woman to hold the post.

Ministry of Finance, led by the Minister for Finance, is responsible for developing and executing the government's public finance policy and economic policy. The National Bank of Tissandra is Tissandra's central bank and is responsible for issuing notes and coins in the nation's currency, the New Gulden. The New Gulden is one of the biggest reserve currency on Urth. Since 1999 the National Bank's Monetary Policy Committee, headed by the Governor of the National Bank of Tissandra, has been responsible for setting interest rates at the level necessary to achieve the overall inflation target for the economy that is set by the Minister for Finance each year.

Tissandra service sector makes up most of the GDP. Anuriel is one of Urth's largest financial centres and also has the largest regional GDP in Tissandra. Eranorth ranks is just behind Anuriel in terms of economic importance and size. Tissandra has an external debt of 345 billion SH$ which is pretty high on Urthian scale.

In the final quarter of 1998 to 1999, Tissandra economy officially entered recession for the first time. Tissandra lost its top AAA credit rating for the first time with the International Credit Agency, but retained its triple A rating with Yasteria International Credits. By the end of 2014, Tissandra growth was the fastest in history, and by 2015, the unemployment rate was down to a seven-year low of 7.3 %. In 2020, political instability and the vacant position of the Prime Minister creates uncertainty, resulting in the economy to suffer its biggest slump since 1999, shrinking by 5.3% to push it officially into recession for the first time in 21 years.

Since the 1970s, Tissandra economic inequality has grown faster than in other developed countries. The poverty line in Tissandra is commonly defined as being 60 % of the median household income. The Office for National Statistics has estimated that in 2011, 5 million people were at risk of poverty or social exclusion, and that one person in 20 (5.1 %) was experiencing "severe material depression", up from 1 million people in 1977. Although Tissandra does not have an official poverty measure, the Cromby Jamestree Foundation and the Social Metrics Commission estimate, based on government data, that there are 5 million people in poverty in Tissandra. 1.5 million people experienced destitution in 2017.

Tourism

Tourism is very important to the Tissandran economy; with over 12 million tourists ariving in 2018, Tissandra is considered as one of the major tourist destination in Urth and Creçore has the most international visitors of any city in the country. There are 360 hotel chains in Tissandra, operating at least 5,000 facility throughout the nation. Apart from historical atractions, there are geological atractions on the Yasterian Mountains, and sea shore atractions, across Tissandra's southern coasts. The Yasterian Ranges main atractions are the Falls of Eleana that are constituted by five small waterfalls,each named after the Philosopher Kings.

The falls fed the La Girona River that runs through Anuriel before touching the sea in the famous La Girona Delta, where His Majesty's Theatre Hall located. Annual music and drama festivals are conducted inside the buildings, and sometimes on the surrounding delta islets. The most famous of the festivals including the National Jazz Concert, the Purple Tissandra Month, and the much televised His Majesty's Drama Competition where biggest theatrical bands from the nation and abroad competes for the Best Actors and the Best Writer thropies. Creçore boasts the largest ammount of hotels and resorts, with 5 five stars hotels in the city, and 3 five stars beach resorts. The city also became the center spot for vacations to the gulf, or to the ranges.Visits to Anuriel are mostly business in nature, as the city is the main economic hub of the country. Foreign holiday cruise ships can directly docks on both Anuriel and Creçore, while Port August is exclusively for trade goods and fishing industries. The nation owns three international airport, Eranorth International, Anuriel International, and Creçore International. International flights must come to these three airports before they can go into other airports.

Agriculture

Agriculture is intensive, highly mechanized and efficient by Urthian standards, producing about 60 % of food needs with less than 1.6 % of the labour force (614,128 workers). Around two-thirds of production is devoted to arable corps, one-third to livestock. The majority of irrigation were an upgraded form of the older irrigation system dating back to the Clintinian era. Farmers are managed under local Farmer's Working Group that lies under the Ministry of Industry and Agriculture's jurisdiction. Since 1999, there were certain government subsidies for national farming. The Farmer Tax Act of 2000 reduced the land tax farmers need to pay from a whole 10% of 75% of the revenue, to just 10% of 50% of the revenue. This resulted in a boom of forest clearing throughout the 2000 - 2010. The government finally passed the Land Clearing Act of 2010 that gives sanction for people who cleared forest without the aproval of local area planner. The government also introduced specific use forests areas for paper industry and furniture, while also enlarging the protected areas a bit more. Tissandra retains a significant, though much reduced fishing industry, with Port August became the main fishing port in the country. The nation produced 36,000 tonnes of fish, with 75% of them came from fish farms throughout the coasts. The fisihing industries also get subsidized by the government through the Fisheries Act of 2012, which obliged insurance companies to gives lower insurance premium for fishermen.

Energy

Tissandra biggest export after manufactured goods is refined oil. Oil made up about 16% of the total exports, and generating almost ₣46 billion for the economy. The government owned Cornellius Oil Company produced 46% of the national oil outlift in 2019. Other major oil mining companies are Teltex, Urmina Mining, and Bless Drill. The revenue from oil and oil related income are primarily used for Tissandra's wellfare programs. It is also rich in a number of natural resources including coal, petroleum, natural gas, tin, limestone, iron ore, salt, clay, chalk, gypsum, lead, silica and an abundance of arable land.

Tissandra do not relies to much on hydroelectric power plants as the country lacks huge river. The nation still relies heavily on coal and gas power plants, as the nation still have a huge abundance on both fuels. The country's renewable energy comes mostly from wind farms that has been built on Tissandra's coasts. The location of Tissandra is perfect for wind farms, as it's located where the the easterly winds collide with Yasteria. Apart from winds, solar farm are begining to show up on Tissandran territory as the nation is pretty arid with pretty long summer (that can last up to 4 months). The nation's renewable energy projects is led by Green Tissandra that lies under the Ministry of Public Work's jurisdiction.

Industry and Manufacturing

The First Industrial Revolution started in Tissandra with an initial concentration on the textile industry, followed by other heavy industries such as shipbuilding, coal mining and steelmaking. Tissandran merchants, shippers and bankers developed overwhelming advantage over those of other nations allowing Tissandra to participate in international trade in the 19th century. As other nations industrialised, Tissandra began to lose its competitive advantage and heavy industry declined, by degrees, throughout the 20th century. Manufacturing remains a significant part of the economy but accounted for only 19% of national output in 2003.

The automotive industry employs around 350,000 people, generating ₣34.6 billion of exports (11.8 % of Tissandra's total export goods). In 2015, Tissandra produced around 1.6 million passenger vehicles and 94,500 commercial vehicles. Tissandra is a major centre for engine manufacturing: in 2015 around 2.4 million engines were produced. Tissandra motorsport industry employs around 41,000 people, comprises around 4,500 companies and has an annual turnover of around ₣6 billion. The aerospace industry of Tissandra is one of the biggest on Urth and has an annual turnover of around ₣30 billion. The wings for the Airlift A380 and the A350 XWB are designed and manufactured at Airlift Tissandra's Almiere facility, whilst over a quarter of the value of the Airlift 787 comes from Tissandra manufacturers including Meaton, Merry-Burgress-Delli and Le-Joyce. Tissandra space industry was worth ₣9.1bn in 2011 and employed 29,000 people. It is growing at a rate of 7.5 % annually, according to its umbrella organisation, Tissandra Space Agency. In 2013, the Tissandran Government pledged ₣60 m to the Skynorth project: this investment will provide support at a "crucial stage" to allow a full-scale prototype of the LSC (Life Supporting Compartments) engine to be built.

Demographics

Ethnicities

Tissandra are populated predominantly by the Tissandran; the descendants of the coastal tribes of Yasteria, and the main successor to the Hellenistic Civilization. The Tissandran comprise around 82,2% of the total population, or around 31 million. The next biggest ethnicity is the Native Yasterian, descendants of the inner Yasterian tribes. The natives predominantly lives side by side with the Tissandran, and even usually called Tissandran by foreigners and Tissandrans alike, as there aren't much differences between the two, except for the smaler stature of natives, and the more whiter complexion of the Tissandrans. But there are some natives that lives in government protected reserves, where they can still live their traditional nomadic live. The natives comprises of around 9.9% of the population, with 76% of the natives live outside of the reserves.

Apart from the two ethnicities, there are considerable number of Packilvanian citizen living inside Tissandra, especially around the borders between the two nations. These Packilvanian are mostly foreign expats and students that visits the nation for education or works on limited times. But up to 26% of Packilvanian inside Tissandra gained Residency status, and some 3% are undergoing or has undergone naturalization process. After the Packilvanian, there are about 5% of various other ethnicities, all from aboard. Tissandra has a very loose immigration policies and going inside the nation is considerably easy compared to other nations in Urth. Visa is needed for temporary visits with time restrictions ranging between a two day visit to two months. Transfer visits do not need any form of documents, but police and airport officials still has the right to check anyone inside the airport area.

Tissandran

Tissandran people are the descendants of the coastal tribes of Yasteria, related to Packilvanian people. The true concept of Tissandran has already been ascribed since the times of Eleana, and was already been used to called the coastal tribes descendants since the Hellenistic period, interchangibly with Hellenic, or the later Clintinian. During the hundred states period, Tissandran is the main adjective used to refers the disparates states' citizens. Different from the native yasterian, Tissandran in average is a bit taller than their native counterparts, and whiter in complexion. On average, Tissandran height ranges between 140 - 170 centimeters, but some can be as high as 2 meters, with women averaging between 130 -160 centimeters, and men between 150 - 180 centimeters.They have a high brow and a unique eye construction; Tissandran eyes are a bit more seperated than the native yasterian. Tissandran usually has black hairs, but there are some with blonde hairs, mainly those who lives near the coasts, and even some with red hairs.

Apart from these small differences, Tissandran, Native Yasterian and Packilvanian have the same ancestry and similar in both face complexion and body structure. Some people even going as far as to ditch the terms Tissandran, Native Yasterian, and Packilvanian and use Yasterian instead, referring to the single ancestral line, and the same physical resemblance. But in general the three ethnicities are considered different, and government censuses still includes the queries for identifying citizens between the three ethnic groups, even though citizen can still choose not to reveals their ethnicity by just chosing the fourth query of the ethnicity queries, which simply categorize them as other ethnicities.

The nation is nominally headed by the head of state, the [[Monarch of Tissandra]] who wields limited power according to the [[Royal Prerogatives Act of 1919]]. The current monarch is [[King Paverel III von Wittelsbach]], coronated on 27th of September 2020. The executive branch consisted of the office of the [[Prime Minister of Tissandra|Prime Minister]], which is curretly vacant, and the [[Ministries of Tissandra|Ministries of The Crown]]. Current role of Prime Minister is held by the [[Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Tissandra|Minister of Foreign Affairs]], [[Johannah Trevors]] since 20th of September 2020.
 [[Parliament of Tissandra|The Tissandran Parliament]] is a bicameral legislature comprising the [[Tissandra House of Commons|House of Commons]] (''Asemblourge Nacional'') and the [[Tissandra House of Lords|House of Lords]]  (''Asemblourge Roiale''). The House of Commons MPs represent local constituencies and are directly elected for 5-year terms. The Commons has the power to dismiss the government, and thus the majority in the House determines the choice of government. Lords are chosen by an electoral college of intellects, and direct designation from the monarch for 6-year terms (originally 9-year terms). Two third of the Lords are elected by the electoral college, and the rest are appointed by the monarch, with the Prime Minister's suggestion.[[File:Parliament arch style.jpg|left|thumb|341x341px|Parliament's current MPs. (light red : Socialist Unionist Party, dark red : Labour Party of Tissandra, green : Green Party of Tissandra, yellow : Liberal and Republican Party, blue : Conservative Party).|alt=]]The Lord's legislative powers are limited; in the event of disagreement between the two chambers, the House of Commons has the final say. The Government has a strong influence in shaping the agenda of Parliament. Each MPs represent a constituency of about 99,700 people, and directly elected through first past the post system. Even though technically anyone can be elected as representative, only members of a certain party are usually elected. Last independent nominees were elected on the 1998 1995 election. There can only be one candidate for each party in a single constituency, but multiple independent candidacy are allowed. This led to what is called "not so independent" candidates that joins certain political party after they were elected.

-After the Second Civil War, there were three main factions in the parliament; the [[Conservatives of Tissandra|Conservatives]], the [[Liberals of Tissandra|Liberals]], and the [[Socialits of Tissandra|Socialits]]. The [[Conservative Party of Tissandra|Conservative Party]] (CP) with 46 chairs is an ardent supporters of the monarchy, but until recently the party has waned in power and now under the opposition coalition led by the [[Liberal and Republican Party of Tissandra|Liberal and Republican Party]] (LRP) that controls 141 chairs.

After the death of the late Prime Minister [[Jonathan McKinley|Hon. Jonathan McKinley MP]], the Socialist and Unionist Party Leader, Hon. Johannah Trevors MP took the role of acting Prime Minister until an election be held inside the government's coalition.

As of 2017, voter turnout was 81 percent during recent elections and are considered pretty high among the members of [[The East Pacific]]. This has been the result of high political feeling among the populace, and large number of party advertising and political contents on public display. Apart from that, political campaign are widely covered in the media, and a single event can atracts more than a few thousands (especially in debating events).
