The Elkossian Star Republic *ESR* (also known as Elkossian Federal Republic *EFR* or the Elkossian State in simpler terms) is the continuation of a predecessor Empire that existed in the Elkoss space sector until G.R 2012 when it was ultimately broken and balkanized at the conclusion of a year long war with savage Peach invaders.
History
The EFR is a state that has existed in a sector close to that of the Halkron sector of the Galaxia Nehellenium which has it's origins tracing back to as early as G.R 1992. The Elkoss Star Empire had enjoyed relative peace and progress until G.R 2011 when it was invaded and embroiled in a years long war against a gargantuan Peach invasion. The resulting war balkanized the ESR and forced it to retreat and consolidate to it's core systems, after which several competing factions would arise and engage each other for supremacy and hopefully control over the entire sector. Several other powers from outside the sector have either been invited, or invited themselves into the secterian violence that ensues as a result of the peach war
The EFR as it's name implies is a federated republic. It's government was shifted during the war after a military coup seized control of the upper echelons of the government due to the military's refusal to accept the defeatist tones of the government toward the end of the war. After the coup, the remaining Elkossian Navy ships engaged in "Operation Hammer Down" which resulted in the nuclear bombardment of the Capital as well as a few colonies in a last-ditch attempt to slow the progress of the Peach tidal wave in G.R 2012. The operation was a success and gave the Elkossian Army a chance to turn the tide, and end the war. After the war, the republic took on a much more fascist and independent attitude.
Governance
The Elkoss Federal Republic governed by the House of Premiers, which is headed by a Chancellor , He or she is often but not always the leader of the dominant political party of the republic. During elections "Premiers" are elected from ridings all over the empire, each of these ridings consists of 100'000 to 250'000 minifigs, and depending on the population of the planet there could be dozens to hundreds of premiers. The individual who is voted into the riding of the planetary capital is made the "Prime Minister" and treated as the leading governor of the colony. The government mostly shares the same priority of rebuilding the empire and restoring it's influence throughout the galaxy, but the house of premiers has broken into several coalitions or blocs due to disagreements mainly revolving around external relations and alliances with empires and states outside of the sector.
The Government of of the EFR is split into four main "parties"
- Tesarik Coalition The dominant coalition led by Chancellor Ondrej Tesarik, very proud and somewhat fascist in nature, the Tesarik government urges self sufficency and patriotic fervor for a nation rebuilding after it was nearly wiped off the map. The Tesarik government firmly believes that the people of the Elkossian Empire will create their own future, and staunchly oppose foreign intervention, as well as refusing foreign aid. They beileve they have the potential to become a Great power in galatic politics, completely on their own The Tesarik government is fiercely protective of it's nations culture and identity, However it would also like to become involved in galactic politics, but on it's own terms. The Tesarik government maintains communications with a number of entities, including the an envoy to the AN as well as some level of diplomatic talks withUSA,Konfederacja Polska,Emeria and Bavaria. Typically the only types of governments the Tesarik bloc will -never- entertain are those of Communist, Peach, or Religious extremist backgrounds.
- Bryzgalov Coalition A coalition mainly of Military background whom for the most part share the same ideals as the Tesarik government, but want to see the return of the very aggressive and jingoistic tendancies of the era when Admiral King Shitz seized power in the days of the Peach war. The Bryzgalov are more interested in galatic politics than the Tesarik government as they hate Communists, blame the USSSR and 45th union for many of the republic's problems, both past and present. And they also want the ESR to leave it's observer status in EPEEN, and become a full member, which would in turn allow it to formally join the Third Alliance
- Jacobus Coalition The Jacobus Coalition is a group of "moderates" who wish to reconcile with the New Republic Sepratist faction as they see a common enemy in the Communists. While they share the Tesarik goal of acheiving their own future and being self reliant, They are also quite fond of those opposing the USSSR in the Communo-Fascist Insurgency and would even entertain the idea of the ESR joining the Intermarium Coalition due to some mutual interests and ideologies.
- Volsk Capital Movement The Volsk movement is a lobby group of mostly former Tesarik bloc members who beileve that the Volsk system should be the new capital of the republic, as it was the system's second largest system, and it's infrastructure is almost completely intact as it was not invaded by the Peaches during the war. The Volsk movement shares many ideologies as the Tesarik government, but want's absolutley no part in galactical affairs, and would rather focus on snuffing out the Communists, Religious extremists, and Peach remnants in it's own system. The Volsk movement beileves that most of the conflicts going on throughout the Galaxy do not warrant the ESR's involvement because the Tesarik vision isn't compatible with many of the other entities and alliances out there. For the most part they are strict isolationists.
- Many seats in the House of Premiers are "held" by other factions who almost never attend gatherings unless supervised by the AN. Some ridings are also without leaders due to the areas being an active warzone or otherwise in contention. Despite many seats being held by reprasentitives from the Commonwealth or New Republic, factions openly hostile to the Federal government, many factions will agree to bar the Communists from their meetings as they are widely beileved to be nothing more than plants and puppets from the USSSR and other Communist factions outside of the sector. Even the extremist Triangular State are invited to these AN supervised meetings when the Communists are not.
