Mass Workers Revolt burns and Royally Mandated Arrests fly!
The Socialist Sun
4200

Today, in the Capital, near to the People's Congress, a large protest as broke out. With red flags and the Crown banner being flew high along with Socialist mottoes and general dissenting voices being voiced via megaphones. There was strong unhappiness with the way the Democrats were governing, and the people were making it clear. While the protests have not devolved into violence, the unrest and strong anger is obvious in the red faces of the workers.

New Socialist Protesters

It's time it stops! Crush capitalism and the Churches! Do not allow them to deconstruct the Empress's bless progress!
Ban the Democratic Party!

Was chanted loudly by a military styled group of New Socialist Party members, the waving of the Crown-Star very dramatic above their heads, if it wasn't for the police it could be very well that harm would have already came to the Democrats in the Congress due to their pitiful capitalist doctrine, compared to what they presented as. As the "moderates" to the New Socialist Party, and not capitalist scum.

Along with these protests and some private strikes across the nation, royally approved arrests have flew at Democratic Leaders and other Liberal figureheads, such as the Governor-General himself and a large number of People's Congress members, with most being put on house arrest with future prosecution planned from a Crown decree. The Empress's temporary media repetitiveness has told the Socialist Sun that:

We gave the Democrats a chance, we let them into the Congress in the first place and we gave them seats in our government. And now that they think that our "Democracy" has shown support for them, them completely flip the script.
No, it's time to privatize everything. It's time to abandon Worker Democracy, it's time to lift state-sponsored atheism,
it's time to do this and that. Well, we're done. And they are done, the party is banned. Period, and any and all Democratic rallies or protests will be shut down without a care for their rights, this has gone too far. And it must end.

The Empress's Representative was clearly not happy with what was happening. Not at all, and the final nail in the Liberal coffin being hit in. It is only a matter of time till the Democratic Party is officially banned and removed from the Congress.

With this in mind, Martial Law was declared in this great nation, as the military is in full support of The Democratic Party. Thus, military coups have began to overtake the government, and so have plots to assassinate the queen of Mikuni-Hulstria .Together, we will put an end, one and for all, on all gennist believers.

The End of Gennist Rule

Due to the pressure from all sides, from the right and the left, from the republican and the loyalist. The Gennists have, as a ruling family and organization, retreated from the nation without giving much more then an official "exchange of the throne" to the anti-Uspers. Leaving behind the nation without the ability to combat it's foes. The end of Gennist rule comes to it's final hitch. Rest in peace Hulstro-Mikun Gennism.

Monarchy Reestablished Under the Jizoku Emperor Yūkīō-Rabuzubāgu Horikawa-no-Mikoto
Years of Usurpation and Interregnum At an End with Complete Restoration of the Imperial System
Image
His Imperial and Heavenly Majesty, Sovereign of the Eastern Sun, Holy Tenno-Kasier of the Great Empire of Mikuni-Harusutoria, Divine Emperor of the Gao-Showan Peoples, Son of Heaven, Lord of Ten Thousand Years, Emperor of Sekowo, Inheritor of the Legacy of the Eternal Harmony and Empire Magnificent, Prince of the Apostles, Supreme Pontiff of the Evangelical Universal Church of the Orient, Defender of the Faith, King of Mitorania, Byūdenrā, Hirugā and Touryou, Emperor of Emperors, King of Kings, Lord of the Kunihito, Commander of the Faithful and Successor of the Prophets of the Lord of the Universe, Shadow of the Eternal, Asylum of the Universe, Light of the Dovani-Artanians, Holder of the Conjunction, Victory of the Government, Protector of the Holy Cities of Miyako, Tel Bira and Helem, Yūkīō-Rabuzubāgu Horikawa-no-Mikoto, of the Regnal Name Jizoku (Enduring), Long May He Reign

Jizoku I - February 4233 - Many years after the Gennists betrayed the trust of the sainted Jihibukai Emperor, and installed the crazed atheist usurper Elizabeth "the Butcher" Genn as "Empress" whose disastrous reign saw the rise of a disorderly Republican administration, a Yukio-Lasburg once again sits in his god-appointed place on the Imperial throne. After a four year term as President, His Imperial Majesty officially restored the Imperial Constitution and was crowned Tenno-Kaiser with approval of a two-thirds majority of the Imperial Diet. Feeble protests from the widely unpopular Republican remnant were dismissed as the idle chatter of those who hold neither the political advantages provided by quantity or quality, as the crowds welcome the return of the pomp and ceremony provided by the Imperial coronation. The world shall surely tremble with fear and awe that once again the Eastern Sun is on the ascent, ready to spread the creed of order and harmony amongst all races and peoples.

Image
Flag of the Jizoku Emperor, that shall serve as the national flag until his death.

Tenshism, our native faith and the true universal religion of the entire world, the ultimate conclusion and synthesis of all world religions, has been restored to its rightful status as the faith of the state. The nobility have been restored to their rightful status, ready to take on the soluem and necessary duty of balancing and guiding the democratic will of the people along the right path. The Imperial Army, Knightly Orders and the Mamuryūken once again defend our Empire from all enemies internal and external, ready to face any threat, any challenge to our collective destiny. The entire Gao-Showan world looks to His Imperial Majesty as the holder of the mandate of Heaven, as the Emperor to whom all Dovani owes tribute, with the deposed monarchies of Dankuk and Indrala unable to even contest the title.

Great Houses take the Lead in National Politics Once Again
Though United in a Single Cabinet, the Governor-General and the State-Chancellor Reportedly at Odds on Economic Policy
Image
The Marquis Serujaku-Rabuzubāgu Arusurān, a Captain of the Mamuryūken and Vizier of the Palace, has been the first of Mikuni-Majatran descent to hold such high office when he was named State-Chancellor. His Grace is reported to support that the Court should take a leading roll in controlling the means of the production, an agenda directly opposed to the Governor-Generals "Noble Capitalism."

Though it is the Constitution of 4167 that was restored in name, a Imperial Septemberist constitution that promises democratic and pluralistic governance, it seems that instead it is the Great House system has been restored in practice. The vast majority of the members of the Diet are associated with two particular Aristocratic families, the House Serujaku of Labsburg, representing the interests of the Imperial heartland and the inner Court, and the House Kāsutāku of Thague, leading the more independent great families of the outer provinces. Though compelled to work together in the interest of supporting His Imperial Majesties restoration and in opposition to the scheming of Federalist and Democrats still at large who agitate against the throne, tension exists between the Governor-General, a Kāsutāku, and the State Chancellor, a Serujaku.

Kāsutāku - A Great House of the Belittled
Minor provincial nobles unite under the Kāsutāku banner for an Empire free from the Rabuzubāgu Elites
Image
Governor-General and Reichsschogun of Mikuni-Hulstria, His Excellency Mihyaeru Kāsutāku-Sagū

Backed by a dozen nobles from the outer provinces of Mikuni-Hulstria, His Excellency Mihyaeru Kāsutāku-Sagū became Governor-General and Reichsschogun of Mikuni-Hulstria in Year 4232. Representing a fiscally libertarian narrative that has met with skepticism from representatives of Greater Houses of the capitol, His Excellency has made himself quite an abundance of both loyal supporters and fierce enemies. Many minor nobles from all across the nation have rallied for his cause, realizing that the doctrine of Noble Capitalism will bring a new quality of economics and governance to every loyal subject of His Imperial and Heavenly Majesty. Unlike many believe, the Kāsutāku ideology is not only about liberalization of economics. Noble Capitalism stands for sensible, non-radical, gradual deregulation and devolution of everything that can be decentralized without harming Imperial Authority. It also advocates for a slightly more meritocratic society, where all are free to either fail or succeed according to their ability.

Governor-General and Reichsschogun of Mikuni-Hulstria, His Excellency Mihyaeru Kāsutāku-Sagū gave a speech yesterday, addressing the inconsistencies that had arisen in governmental economic policy, alluding to the Serujaku-Rabuzubāgu State Chancellor's attitude towards the Kāsutāku doctrine of Noble Capitalism.
Years of centralized rulership have proven that the big-government model of our Empire, preached with utmost fervency by Greater Houses of the Mikuni-Hulstrian Capitol, is not efficient and ultimately always leads to instability followed with a destructive temporary collapse of His Imperial and Heavenly Majesty's Government that subsequently hinders economic and cultural progress. Rabuzubāgu Elites fail to notice the problems of the country for their eyes hardly ever see outside the capital region. They are sure that they know better how to manage everything, yet they do not take into account the particular interests of various groups of Imperial Subjects. Instead, they prefer uncompromisingly pushing through their own leftist agenda of centralized rule and widespread nationalization. Do not misinterpret, nor hyperbolize my words though: the Great Houses of Rabuzubāgu are not a menace to the Imperial order, it is in fact quite the opposite. I do not wish to question their, many times proven, loyalty and dedication to His Imperial and Heavenly Majesty's most honorable cause. I only want to root out their misapprehension that Noble Capitalism is a vile force opposed to what we all stand for. We firmly believe that greater decentralization would benefit all, especially in terms of economics.


OOC: I haven't written anything in a long time, therefore I apologize for any mistakes that I might have made in the above text.
I'm back. Back at it again with the white vans.

HKP RISES TO POWER WITH PLANS TO RE-ESTABLISH GREATER HULSTRIA

Image
New Reichskanzler Heinrich Otto-Mann has pledged to tear up the constitution

A new political party has seized power in the Crownlands promising a return of the Greater Hulstrian Empire.

The Hulstrian Königliche Party (HKP) has pledged to tear up the current constitution and prioritise Hulstrian culture as well as re-introduce Dundorfian as the primary language of the nation.

Their pledge would, in effect, create a two-tier citizen system in the country, with those of Hulstrian ethnicity and culture being prioritised over people from Gao-Showan families.

However, commentators have suggested it will be difficult for the right-wing HKP to see the policies through because people of "pure" Hulstrian descent make up less than a fifth of the population (currently around 18 per cent, according to the last national census).

So any chance of achieving sustainable success - particularly peacefully - would depend on the reaction of people of mixed Hulstro-Showan backgrounds (around a third of the country's population) and whether the party can offer them enough in terms of economic and cultural sweeteners.

Reichskanzler and HKP Leader Heinrich Otto-Mann said the time for serious change had arrived and he would place the nation in its "rightful place as the dominant power" on the Dovani continent.

Speaking at a rally in the capital attended by around 60,000 people, he said: "The people demand the rise of a second Hulstrian Empire and a reclamation of or former glories. Now is the time to execute a plan to bring them their greatest desire.

"But we must be ruthless: this nation must re-adopt those cultural purities which gave it its focus and power in the first place. We have to be strong and focussed and will not stop until our plan is implemented."

Otto-Mann also said he was planning to bring in laws to ban communist organisations and make it more difficult for pro-republican political parties to "destabilise the lasting legacy of the Hulstrian monarchy" which he said was the "vital bedrock of the nation's heritage and culture".

He has aso planned to pump billions more into the defence of the realm and to expand the country's armed forces on all fronts.

It is not clear at this stage how far the HKP will go with their plans for a Greater Hulstria. Many people of Hulstrian descent live beyond the borders of the nation, particularly in neighbouring Kazulia where settlers have set up home in the southern states.

PEOPLE TO BE CATEGORISED UNDER THREE-TIER CITIZENSHIP PLANS


Image
People from Hulstran ethnicity will be registered as Class A citizens

The government is pushing ahead with a three-tier citizenship bill, which will prioritise people from Hulstrian backgrounds and place restrictions on others.

Under the Citzens' Classification Act, a new government department will be set up to determine which category every single person in the nation falls into. It will be based on ethnicity and language spoken.

Once the bill passes, the Ministry of Classification - which answers directly to the Reichskanzler - will categorise everyone as Class A, Class B or Class C citizens.

Under the guidelines announced in the Reichstag, Class A citizens are defined as those from pure Hulstrian ethnicity; they must also be able to speak Dundorfian and read and write in the language proficiently as well.

Class B citizens are defined as those from mixed Hulstrian and Gao-Showa ethnicity or the Gistoten (that is fully Hulstrised Gao-Showan). Again, in order to qualify for this category people must be able to speak Dundorfian proficiently and read and write it to a competent level.

Everyone else will fall into Class C citizenship category - that is those of Gao-Showa ethnicity, as well as other smaller ethnic groups such as Sekowans and the Llaqtas.


Image
Many people of Gao-Showa descent will be classified as Class C citizens

Only class A citizens will be able to hold senior posts in government, noble titles or top jobs in other organisations like the police force or officer commissions in the armed forces. While no Class C citizens will be allowed to take a seat in the national or state legislature.

Reichskanzler Heinrich Otto-Mann said the changes were the first critical step towards re-embracing the dominance of Hulstrianism in the nation and a vital step on the road to a Greater Hulstrian empire.

He said: "There are many divergent currents flowing through our nation. However we must channel these into one strong artery if we are to take up our rightful place as the dominant power on Dovani.

"By prioritising Hulstrian culture and the Dundorfian language - our mother tongue - we are doing just that; we are encouraging the cream to rise to the top and it lays down firm foundations for a very prosperous future."

PRO-COMMUNIST PROTESTORS ARRESTED IN THEIR THOUSANDS AS GOVERNMENT BEGINS CLAMPDOWN

Image
Groups of protestors clash with the police back up by imperial army forces.

Thousands of left-wing activists have been arrested across Hulstria as protests broke out over the imperial government's plans to ban communist parties.

Heavily armed police, backed up by the Reichs Army, were out in force to break up protests and, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, "restore order and integrity".

The Ministry spokesperson said most of the protestors were Class C citizens - in the main Gao Showa - who had been stirred up by a smaller group of political extremists intent on violence.

He said that the government could not rule out at this stage if URSR agents were amongst the protestors but warned that the punishment for seditious behaviour was severe.

A ban on communist parties is set to come into effect next year with the government saying the violent rise of the URSR around the world had sparked the move.

Reichskanzler Heinrich Otto-Mann said: "We must do everything to protect our Hulstrian democracy, our way of life, our people and our culture. The communists exude chaos, violence and a inherent desire to overthrow our way of life.

"Of course they will fail - both here and internationally as there is a determined effort to root them out and expose them and their wickedness."

Meanwhile, the Imperial Government has announced it is to invest a further 50 billion crowns into the defence budget to help "secure the borders of Great Hulstria".

It has also announced the commissioning of a new aircraft carrier - The Imperial Ship Beatrice, - which will serve as the flagship of the Navy. At a displacement of 80,000 tonnes and 85 metres in length the Kaiser-class vessel is capable of carrying 75 fighter aircraft.

The defence budget now stands at 200 billion Crowns - with Reichskanzler Otto-Mann promising to use the money to also double the size of the army and invest in new aircraft technology.

HULSTRIA DEMANDS CLOSER TIES WITH MILLIONS OF "CLOSE-KIN" LIVING IN SOUTHERN KAZULIA

Image
Fences being erected along the heavily-patrolled border between Hulstria and Kazulia


Tensions have been significantly heightened on the continent of Dovani after the Imperial Crownlands government demanded closer political ties with millions of Dundorfian-speaking Hulstrians in neighbouring Kazulia.

A significant number of people of Hulstrian descent live in the Kazulian southern states of Hent and Kelvon, having colonised the area centuries ago.

Now, in a big step towards expansionism, the Imperial Government in Hulstria wants to strengthen the bond after claiming to have been approached by their "close-kin" communities in Kazulia.

Reichskanzler Heinrich Otto-Mann said Hulstrian culture in Kazulia was being "suppressed" and that closer political ties with the Imperial fatherland were inevitable. He said the possibility of a sixth Bundesland (state) consisting of the southern swathes of Hent and Kelvon was not beyond the realms of possibility.

He said: "I have approached the Kazulian government to demand closer political ties. We will not see our cousins and our culture suppressed in this way. There are more than three million people of Hulstrian descent living in southern Kazulia - they are our kin in terms of language and culture and they are determined to be part of a re-invigorated Greater Hulstrian Empire.

"Kazulia must not, and cannot, stand in the way of these people and their democratic right to self determination."

The move follows Kazulia's condemnation of the Imperial Crownlands Government as being a major threat to regional stability. This has led to a ban on Kazulian nationals travelling to their southern neighbour.

Reichskanzler Otto-Mann added: "This is a blatant attempt to muddy the waters and stir up trouble within the international community. Our country is more stable than it has been for many decades - Kazulia is frightened of our economic and military rise in power and status. They will do anything to reclaim the regional hegemony from us and to prevent the re-creation of a greater Hulstria. Of course, they will fail miserably."

NATIONAL REFERENDUM GIVES IMPERIAL GOVERNMENT UNLIMITED POWERS TO PURSUE POLITICAL OPTIONS WITH KAZULIAN-HULSTRIANS

Image
Backing of the nation... Reichskanzler Heinrich Otto-Mann

Millions of people in the Imperial Crownlands have taken part in a national referendum with 99.7 per cent backing the government to pursue closer political ties with Hulstrians living in neighbouring Kazulia.

Reichskanzler Heinrich Otto-Mann made the two-part question a vote of confidence in his government, stressing he needed clear democratic backing to pursue this fundamental issue. He said the overwhelmingly support he has received gives him an undoubted mandate to use "whatever means necessary" to take the first steps towards a Greater Hulstria. The opposition party and the NO campaign received less than 30,000 of the 12.4 million votes cast.

The questions asked in the referendum were:

1) Is the Imperial Government right to pursue, with all options necessary, the right for Hulstrians in Kazulia to have self determination over who governs them?

2) Should the Queen's Imperial title be adjusted to include the phrase "Archduchess of Hent-Kelvon"? (the two states in southern Kazulia where more than three million Dundorfian-speaking Hulstrians live).

Reichskanzler Otto-Mann said: "This free and fair referendum demonstrates that democracy is flourishing in our nation - no one can deny that. It also shows how the people wholeheartedly back the government's plans for a Greater-Hulstria. This sends out a crystal clear message to Kazulia - Hulstrians will not be suppressed; our language and culture will not be diluted by the inferior.

"Kazulia must bow to the inevitable and allow these people... our people to form this closer political link if that is what all parties want. The right of self-determination is irresistible now, only a dictator would stand in its way."
“I venture to suggest that patriotism is not a short and frenzied outburst of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.”
