Haldor: A new political party has been formed in the Federal Republic of Dorvik. The new Social Democratic Party of Dorvik (SPD) was created by Otto Von Mengen (on the right of the photo) who pledged to give left leaning and progressive voters their voice back in parliament. According to Von Mengen dorvish freedoms have been eroding under the pretext of protecting the state and its traditions. But, as Von Mengen describes, the two do not have to oppose eachother.

Dorvish freedoms have always been a inspiration for the rest of the world. But these days it seems that those freedoms are lost and that security is more important then freedom. I say, and indeed our new party says, that freedom and security can co-exist and should not be treated apart from eachother. The SPD will fight for job security, freedom, state security, a progressive social policy and a increase of the minimum wage. Dorvik deserves a government that cares, and we, the SPD, will care for our people


The new party has opened its headquarters in Haldor and many citizens are enthusiastic on social media saying "an end to the fascist president!" but many moderates also stating that they are happy a "common sense party" has joined dorvish politics.
It is expected that the SPD will be rather popular amongst young voters and common left wing voters alike.

Edmund Fassling resign from politics, new chairman elected

4631- after last election where the KP lost a lot of seats, edmund Fassling decided to resign as chairman and from politics. He became two times president where he could only one time a cabinet where he got blamed a lot of his radical wings and voters. He went more to a democratical side, for the good of Dorvik. His statement follows as next:
dear people of Dorvik, i thank you for youre years of trust and loyalty. We did a great job and tried to move dorvik to a path of righteousness and equality. Ofcourse we couldn't go all the way due to we being the sole communist party, it was a hard way. I can try to explain why i compromised to form a cabunet, but we all know you won't believe or hear that. I am proud of what i and my administration did, but after last election i see that you want another path. After 30 years of being chairman and 40 years in the party it is time for my retirement and hope the new elected chairman will redirect this party to an new age with succes.


After the news their are 6 candidates in total of the 2 wings whom already have made their moves to become the new chairman. Hermann von schagen and jennifer lux are the 2 most known candidates, but are known to be of the democratical wing.
Every wing will hold an election and the 2 winners of bith sides will hold it against each other.

These are the candidates :

Radical wing:

Lara grutenberg
David grass
Helga graven

Democratical wing:
Hermann von schagen
Jennifer lux
Frederik raven

Election results :

Radical wing:
Lara grutenberg 60%
David grass: 29,5%
Helga graven: 10,5%

Democratical wing:
Hernann von schagen 48%
Jennifer lux 46%
Frederik raven 6%

Election resukts fir the new chairman:
Lara Grutenberg 53%
Hermann von schagen 47%

Lara Grutenberg is the unexpected winner. She has always worked in Kordusia in local politics for the party and is known for her radical revolutionary ideas in the party. What will we see of ms Grutenberg?
Nation: Dorvik
Party: the kommunistische partei
Previous nations: rildanor, state of hobrazia, potensi

Haldor: Jubilant crowds gathered in front of the SPD party HQ in Haldor. Together SPD supporters watched the election results come in as the SPD won more and more seats. At the end of the evening the crowd was in the best mood as it could be as the new SPD managed to become the second party in the Council and its leader, Otto Von Mengen, becoming the president of Dorvik. Von Mengen stood in front of the big crowd of several hundred people giving his speech.

Today is a day for change! The people of Dorvik have clearly chosen a new path. As we enter this new page in our history we, the SPD, together with the dorvish people, will ensure that the voice of every citizen is heard, we will reform our executive branch! Increase the number of seats in the council to better represent the people and, after these changes have been implemented, pass early elections so that you, the dorvish people, can voice their opinions on who you want leading in the new system of government! Let us celebrate now and get to work!


After the council was installed a month after the elections the SPD got to work immediately. After the president himself drafted the constitutional ammendments together with his team his party officially proposed the ammendments in the council, calling for an end to the executive presidency and the reintroduction of the chancellorship. The privilige for the president to propose a cabinet will also be removed, allowing the biggest party to propose a cabinet and if its not able to do this other parties may propose their own.
The SPD, which has gained unanimous support amongst the other parties in the council, hopes that by changing the system back to a more parliamentary like system the gridlock of the past decades in forming cabinets can be resolved. The changes are likely to pass the council after which president Von Mengen has already pledged to call for early elections.

Return of the Social Nationalist
July, 4631

Haldor, Kordusia - Outside of the All-Dorvish League headquarters the leadership of the ADV announced that the Social Nationalist Party was returning. A simple, yet important announcement that a political party that had once dominated the political landscape was returning was a herald to the world. Dorvik was on the comeback tour. Florian Regismund von Rohr-Mauss was announced as the leader of the Supreme Council, the highest body of authority within the Social Nationalist Party and the overall leader of the party itself. The program announced by von Rohr-Mauss focused on the "...restoration of Dorvish economic freedom and liberties at home." It included freeing the defense industry from state ownership, a tenant of the Communist Party of Dorvik that Rohr-Mauss has claimed to have "...nearly set Dorvik back to the stone age." and called on the leadership of the Dorvish Armed Forces to halt bowing to the Socialist and Communist within the government and hamstringing their efforts. Despite some obvious political differences, Rohr-Mauss noted that the Social Democratic Party of Dorvik provided a "stable option" to the radical agendas proposed by the Communist Party of Dorvik. The program also included liberalizing the Dorvish health care industry which has been strangled by poor government oversight and instability within the Dorvish government over the past several years.

One notable tenant was the restoration of a state religion Dorvik, despite its controversy, the Dorvish people hold deep religious beliefs and has been a prominent component of the Dorvish history. While the Social Nationalist Party has not always been a friend to religion, the restoration of the Dorvish state religion is seen as a means to please the more right-wing of the generally center-right political party. While the Dorvish Armed Forces and its police and security apparatus remain generally apolitical, the leadership of the SNP is closely tied with the defense and security apparatus. A preliminary report of the SNP shows 25% to 35% of its membership comes from the military, police or security services and includes a number of veterans and rank and file police officers. Party chairman Rohr-Mauss himself is a Major in the Reserve of the Dorvish Army, having served two tours in Suyu Llaqta, as have nearly all of his picks for leadership within the SNP. The parties selection for the Ministry of Defense is brother of party chairman, Franz Anton von Rohr-Mauss. Franz Anton von Rohr-Mauss is a former Colonel (now reserve) in the Dorvish Army and served in Suyu Llaqta. A staff officer within the 10th Panzergrenadier Division "Sacred Dorvik", the conservative bastion of the Dorvish Army, he served in a number of battles and called on the Dorvish government to be blamed for its large failure in handling the situation. "We were inadequately trained, supplied and poorly overseen by the government back home. We need to change that."

In a historical first move, women of power have risen to the top in the SNP. Ida Kaplan, a Doctor with the Dorvish Police has been given the nod as the SNP's choice for Health and Social Services. A prominent activist for reform within the Dorvish healthcare field, she has designed the parties call for liberalizing health care in Dorvik to allow for a public system that is backed by the Dorvish government and a freer, more specialized and open private health care sector. She has appeared next to many prominent Dorvish doctors and health care lobbyist. Angelika von und zu Gießen, the SNP's choice for Science and Technology Minister, is a Dorvish astronaut and is an outspoken supporter of space exploration and expansion of the Dorvish investment into technology, including renewable technologies. Despite opposition, she is a supporter of nuclear power as a means of clean energy in Dorvik and has called on the government of Dorvik to build and renovate several nuclear power plants. Ursula von Lÿndow-Sennhein, the noted Dorvish business magnate, breaking with her families tradition of police and intelligence service, has been given to go ahead to lead the SNP's trade and industry office, calling for a "...vigorous approach to Dorvish capitalism at home and abroad."

While the return of the SNP signals that a shift in the landscape of Dorvish politics might finally happen, it remains to be seen.

SNP wins 44
March, 4632

Haldor, Kordusia - Snap elections were called for March, 4632 and the Social Nationalist Party, which had little time to prepare, since the parties re-foundation in July, 4631 competed. SNP Candidate for the Dorvish Presidency, Adalbrecht Krantz polled poorly and in the election he received only 9.31% of the total popular vote. Despite this, the SNP performed adequately capturing 44 Deputies within the Federal Council, including a position for party leader Florian Regismund von Rohr-Mauss who was elected out of Dorvan, a traditional base of the Dorvish nobility and a conservative bastion of Dorvik. The SNP didn't find much success in the progressive state of Kordusia but fared far better in the more conservative provinces of MIktar, Dorvan and Westmark. Largonia, a traditional base of the Social Nationalist Party, saw the party finish fourth for its best state-wide election. A majority of the political leadership of the SNP were elected to seats, notably members such as Franz Anton von Rohr-Mauss, Johannes Josef von Bahr, Vithmiris Friedrich von Faust-Essen (the brother of the pretender Dorvish King), Angelika von und zu Gießen, Ursula von Lÿndow-Sennhein and Visclario von Desidier. Despite the opposition to restore the titles of nobility to the families of Dorvik, many of the most popular candidates in the elections were those of noble or royal background. SNP leader Florian Regismund von Rohr-Mauss called out the parties that voted against the "Law on the Dorvish Nobility and Historical Protection" stating that "...denying the noble heritage of the Dorvish people is tantamount to spitting on the flag and burning it." The position of the nobility in Dorvik has long been misunderstood and most of the proponents of the Dorvish nobility have remained heavily involved in Dorvish life at all levels, including politics.

The SNP, which has largely represented the nobility stated that they will continue to push for recognition of the nobility and that it is a focal point of their campaign. Despite opposition, the SNP has called for the Interior Ministry to work towards mandatory identity cards for all Dorvish citizens. SNP Interior Ministry candidate Vithmiris Friedrich von Faust-Essen, a member of the Dorvish Federal Security Service, has called for the issuance of identity cards to all Dorvish citizens and to require them to possess them. "We believe in the SNP that it makes sense. If you are stopped by the police, if you are interacting with the government services provided by the Dorvish government, if you are simply in a car and operating a motor vehicle, you should possess your ID. To deny such basic identifiable information is dangerous and will further degrade Dorvish law and order. We implore the "Middle", the Social Democrats and the National Action deputies to support this when it surely rises up again." Dr.Ida Kaplan, one of the more activist, grass-roots members of the SNP, was outraged to see that the privatization of the Dorvish health care system failed to pass the Federal Council. She applauded current Health and Social Services Minister Manfred Werstein for his support and his parties support in the Federal Council. "Dorvish citizens should not be beholden to the Federal government to provide ALL healthcare. It is impossible for the state to provide everything, it is a leech on the hull of the Dorvish economy's ship and we cannot allow this to continue. We will have private healthcare combined with a federal system of healthcare, we will!"

Despite the controversial vote to allow a voluntary state religion in Dorvik, the SNP did not mention it much in their post-electoral speech.

Dorvik prepares for the start of Octoberfest
September, 4633

Dorvik - Dorvish Minister of Education and Culture Axel Frisch has been spotted in several locations throughout Dorvik assisting in preparations for Octoberfest, known in Dundorfian as Oktoberfest a very important Dorvish and Dundorfian celebration. The Dorvish Minister was spotted with the current leader of the VDKV (Volksdundorfische Cultural Association), Reichsführer Hans Leopold von und zu Gießen, the husband to current Minister of Science and Technology Angelika von und zu Gießen. Several members of the SNP were present, including SNP leader Florian Regismund von Rohr-Mauss and current Minister of Defense Franz Anton von Rohr-Mauss, brother to the SNP leader. The Octoberfest celebration in Dorvik is a month-long ceremony that usually sees planning start in late August and goes through September and kicks off October 1st for a month-long celebration. It is often considered a celebration of Dundorfian culture and has in recent years, become an event known for its celebratory parties and gatherings which promote Pan-Dundorfian unity and celebrate Dundorfians across the world.

While it is generally a Dundorfian "holiday", many close ethnic neighbors to the Dundorfian celebrate Octoberfest, such as the Hulstro-Trigunians, the Hulstrians, the Ostlanders (who are ethnically Hulstrian) and other Dundorfian groups around the world. Octoberfest is celebrated often by drinking Octoberfest beer and celebrating with food and traditional Dundorfian games and events. The event gained prominence in southern Dundorf where it started and eventually grew through the Dundorfian Reich in the middle of the 19th century and became a Pan-Dundorfian event and was celebrated by the Kaiser and his government for many years. The SNP has been a huge supporter of the Octoberfest events and has, for quite some time, capitalized on the events as speakers and guests of honor. Minister of Education and Culture Axel Frisch will be opening this year's ceremony, as is often with the sitting Minister of Education and Culture.

Generaladmiral sets sights on revamped Armed Forces
September, 4633

Haldor, Kordusia - Generaladmiral Domenikus von Lÿndow-Sennhein, the Inspector-General of the Armed Forces of Dorvik, the most senior officer in the Dorvish Armed Forces and the head of the Supreme General Staff has announced that the Dorvish Armed Forces will seek to rekindle ties with former allies. Allies such as Kazulia, Lourenne, and others. The focus of the Dorvish Armed Forces underneath the Generaladmiral will be primarily the restoration of the Dorvish Navy and its operational abilities across the globe. While the Dorvish Navy underneath previous administrations hasn't significantly suffered, it hasn't been bolstered nor has it seen its share of annual naval exercises. In a directive issued by the Ministry of Defense and the Supreme General Staff the Supreme General Staff will be charged with planning new annual wargames focused on specific areas of the globe, focused around specific branches of the armed services. The coming year's exercise will focus on the logistical supply of the Dorvish Navy and will test the deployment of the Dorvish Naval Infantry (Dorvish Marines) across a number of venues such as air, land, and sea. With that, a defense foreign affairs delegation is likely to make trips abroad.

SNP attacks Communist Party as "Party of Anti-Human Rights"
October, 4633

Haldor, Kordusia - Dorvish Minister of Health and Social Service Ida Kaplan blasted the Communist Party in Dorvik for their vote against the "Law on Trading Rights". The "Law on Trading Rights" which seeks to establish "ethnical tarrifs" on nations with lower environmental or human rights standards. This move, widely seen to reinforce Dorvish commitment to human rights across the globe and secure changes in the climate, was voted down by both the "Middle" and the Communist Party. While Minister Kaplan stated that she expected the normally pro-business and pro-trade "Middle" party to go against the vote, but the shock that the Communist Party to go against such a vote since they claimed to be a party of human rights and the tenants of "Communism" traditionally would support such "protectionist" elements. Despite the support from the SNP, the law would give the Ministry of Trade and Industry the ability to work with tariffs and trade.
