==Prelude==
General [[Erwina Pipenz]], an Usprian female, was the Chief of the General Staff of the Republic of Ethalria Defence Force. She left the military to challenge [[Ositha Boracova]] in the 2016 presidential elections at the head of the National Renewal Party. She lost in the second round by 1%. She claimed that the election had been rigged and challenged the results in the Republic of Ethalria Supreme Court. The Supreme Court ruled that there was insufficient evidence to rule against the winner. As the leader of the opposition in the Republic of Ethalria Parliament, she called for Usprian ethnonationalist solidarity. In early 2017, the NRP and the ROE Defence Force led by Gen Erwina Pipenz attacked the capital, arrested senior government officials, suspended the police and other state institutions and declared a curfew over the nation.
Gen Erwina Pipenz announced that the Republic of Ethalria had been dissolved and that the Empire of Uspalria would take its place with the Uspalrian High Command
Nevertheless, Ethalria was the first country to recognise Uspalria. Erwina Pipenz undertook a diplomatic visit to Rivendale to forge strong relations with Ethalria. The Strataric Communist Party was divided between the faction led by Procurator-General [[Mikhail Starikov]] who supported Uspalria and the faction led by General Secretary [[Viktor Drugov]] who supported the ROE. Mikhail Starikov was the rising star of the party and looked set to become the next General Secretary at the 2018 National Elective Conference. Starikov called for a meeting of the Politburo to vote on the ROE vs Uspalria question for later that month.
