Following WWI the Övezgeldi Revolution which saw the creation of the First Republic of Dobruca. The new republic was incredibly unstable leading to the rise of Oguzhan Armagan taking power in a coup d'état creating a authoritarian dictatorship.
Armagan attempted to maintain Dobrucan neutrality during World War Two but was invaded by Nazi Germany, who set up the Independent State of Dobruca, a puppet state of the Nazi's. Soviet forces occupied Dobruca in 1944, overseeing the creation of the Marxist-Leninist Democratic Republic of Dobruca. Under its second communist leader, Guven Suleymanoglu, Dobruca became one of the most brutal and oppressive regimes in the Eastern Bloc. Pro-democracy protests in 1989 saw the overthrow of the communist regime and Dobruca's transitions towards a democratic, capitalist country.
