THE EXILE OF THE DORVISH MILITARY
Following their successful coup, the Revolutionary Socialist Party has begun their first political program, aimed at the Dorvish military. This act, apart from allowing the democratization of the military apparatus and decentralization of it, also has decided that any remaining loyalist and republican officers would be exiled to neighbouring countries.

The new President Isaak "Reinhardt" Frei has declared today that the political program of the RSP would begin with a change in how the military apparatus is run. From changes to the centralization of the military to how officers are chosen, the RSP assures that this first change is "necessary to secure our spoils".
The Demokratisierung und Popularisierung des Militärs Gesetz/Democratization and Popularization of the Military Bill is being implemented to change completely the course of the Dorvish military. Its more radical changes come from the elimination of a full-time army, navy and air force, and instead create a part-time army formed from volunteers and paramilitaries that participated in the small civil war. Although many agree this move will only make Dorvik lose its military might, the RSP assures that "to have a completely democratic society, our soldiers must follow the same system, or we run the risk of a counter-revolution."
However, another radical decision is the exile of loyalist and republican officers that remained in Dorvik after the coup. Although most republican forces left the country or were hunted down by revolutionaries, a small group of officers, admirals and air captains remained in the country as POW. These officers stood trial, and all remained loyal to the republican government. In the end, it was decided that they would be forced to leave Dorvik in the next two months, or else they would face prosecution once again and, most likely, execution.
