'''Vistulzka''' ({{wp|Polish language|Vistulzkan}}: ''Wiślańska''), officially the '''Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka''' ({{wp|Polish language|Vistulzkan}}: ''Prawosławna Republika Wiślańska'') and often times simply called the '''[[Politics of Vistulzka|Orthodox Republic]]''', is a {{wp|sovereign country}} located in [[Western Calesia]]. It borders [[X]] to the north, [[X]] to the west, [[X]] to the south, and [[Falland]] to the southeast, and it shares a {{wp|maritime boundary}} with [[Waldrich]] across the [[Svalish Sea]]. Consisting of 54 states called [[Voivodeships of Vistulzka|Voivodeships]], it is the [[Calesia|third-largest country]] in Calesia, covering over 396,297 km<sup>2</sup>, and the [[Calesia|fourth-most populous]] with over X million inhabitants. Additionally, Vistulzka holds two island {{wp|overseas territory|overseas territories}} in the [[Medan Ocean]]: [[Casimir (Teleon)|Casimir]] and [[Nowa Sarmat]].
'''Vistulzka''' ({{wp|Polish language|Vistulzkan}}: ''Wiślańska''; {{wpl|Hungarian language|Hetumogye}}: ''Visztulaszág''; {{wpl|Ukrainian language|Prykordonnyan}}: Віслаьща), officially the '''Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka''' and often times referred to as the '''[[Orthodox Republicanism|Orthodox Republic]]''', is a {{wp|sovereign country}} located in [[Western Calesia]]. It borders [[X]] to the north, [[X]] to the west, [[X]] to the south, and [[Falland]] to the southeast, and it shares a {{wp|maritime boundary}} with [[Waldrich]] across the [[Svalish Sea]]. Consisting of 54 states called [[Voivodeships of Vistulzka|Voivodeships]], it is the [[Calesia|third-largest country]] in Calesia, covering over 396,297 km<sup>2</sup>, and the [[Calesia|fourth-most populous]] with over 41 million inhabitants. Additional, Vistulzka administers two territories under as the [[Overseas Vistulzkan Territories]] that are considered part of its constitutional dominion in the Medan Ocean: [[Utska]] and [[Jastarnia]].


Vistulzka has been inhabited since the {{wpl|Last Glacial Age}} with various sets of artifacts dating back to the {{wp|Lower Paleolithic}} period when the area was dominated by various {{wpl|hunter-gatherers}} cultures. Vistulzka in {{wp|late antiquity}} was inhabited by a mix of tribes, known as the [[Proto-Sarmats]]. By the time of the 800s, the area of Vistulzka was controlled by three various {{wp|paganism|paganistic}} duchies: [[Duchy of Sarmat|Sarmat]], [[Duchy of Géza|Géza]] and the [[Duchy of Pereya|Pereya]]. The Duke of Sarmat, [[Casimir III of Sarmat|Casimir III]], converted to [[Presterism|Presterist Gregorianism]] and engaged in the [[Sarmat Wars]], uniting part of the Duchy of Géza and absorbing the entirity of the Duchy of Pereya under the [[Treaty of Wełnica]]. The Duchy of Sarmat became the [[Grand Duchy of Vistulzka]]. The remaining parts of the Duchy of Géza became the [[First Kingdom of Hetumoger]], under Presterist Gregorianic auspices; the Duchy of Sarmat became the dominant power in Western Calesia.  
Vistulzka has been inhabited since the {{wpl|Last Glacial Age}} with various sets of artifacts dating back to the {{wpl|Lower Paleolithic}} period, when the area was dominated by various {{wpl|hunter-gatherers|hunter-gatherer cultures}}. Vistulzka in {{wpl|late antiquity}} was inhabited by a mix of various tribes, known as the [[Proto-Sarmats]]. By the 800's, three paganistic duchies emerged and controlled the land: The [[Duchy of Sarmat|Sarmats]], the [[Duchy of Géza|Gézans]] and the [[Duchy of Pereya|Pereyans]]. In 851, the Duke of the Sarmats [[Casimir III of Sarmat|Casimir III]] converted from paganism to [[Presterism|Presterist Gregorianism]] after the breakup of the First Hernican Empire. His personal conversion and the subsequent conversion of the Sarmats began the [[Sarmat War]], where the Sarmats invaded the Gézans. The war brought parts of the Duchy of Géza under the control of the Sarmats, and union  of the Duchy of Pereya with the Duchy of Sarmat under the [[Treaty of Wełnica]]. The union of Sarmat and Pereya brought a new identity of statehood under a new country, the [[Grand Duchy of Vistulzka]]. In the aftermath of the war, the Gézans also converted towards Presterist Gregorianism and reformed into the [[First Kingdom of Hetumoger]] under Presterist Gregorianic auspices. The new Grand Duchy of Vistulzka became a dominant regional power in Western Calesia.
 
In 953, the Grand Duchy of Vistulzka and the First Kingdom of Hetumoger signed the [[Treaty of Asotthalom]], which led to the creation of the [[Kingdom of Vistulzka and Hetumoger|Vistulzka-Hetumoger Kingdom]]. This kingdom lasted for almost three hundred years. In 1211, Vistulzka-Hetumoger was identified as one of the home states where the [[First Odrodzenie]] began, a revolutionary cultural and political movement. The First Odrodzenie brought about uniquely liberal changes to the internal politics of the Kingdom. Driven primarily by the advocation of {{wpl|civil liberties}}, it cemented Vistulzka's tradition of {{wpl|progressivism}}. Under calls for a new government to be established that better represented the people and guaranteed rights, King Ziemomysł II reorganized the country's political system. The new country rennamed itself from the Kingdom into the [[Noble Republic of Vistulzka and Hetumoger|Vistulzka-Hetumoger Noble Republic]]. The new political system was based off of various ideas that were promogulated during the First Odrodzenie. Ziemomysł II himself still retained significant power, but distributed that power through the political system. The Noble Republic commissioned the [[Vistulzkan Constitution of 1211|Calesia's first constitution]] that was intended to function as a governing principle. It limited the power of the monarchy, creating and empowering a new state-backed legislature, the [[Noble Sejm]]. The Noble Republic continued for over 150 years, and collapsed in 1376 in the [[First Vistulzkan Civil War]], between the King [[Ziemomysł IV]] and Head of the Noble Sejm, [[Árpád III]]. Political disalignment over the powers of the King and the Sejm caused the civil war. In the aftermath, powerful and influential noble classes appeared, the [[Nemesseg]], the [[Szlachta]] and the [[Lytsari]].


In 953, the Grand Duchy of Vistulzka and the First Kingdom of Hetumoger unified, creating the [[Kingdom of Vistulzka and Hetumoger|Vistulzka-Hetumoger Kingdom]]. In 1211, Vistulzka-Hetumoger entered the [[Era of the First Odrodzenie|First Odrodzenie]], a revolutionary cultural movement that coincided with a change of internal politics of the Kingdom. This change was uniquely liberal, where the power of the Kingdom would reorganize under the principles of {{wpl|humanism}} and transformed into the [[Noble Republic of Vistulzka and Hetumoger|Vistulzka-Hetumoger Noble Republic]]. The new political system utilized the idea of a [[Noble Republic]] and promulgated [[Constitution of 1211 (Teleon)|Calesia's first constitution]] that limited the power of the monarchy and granted power to a state-backed legislature. The Noble Republic would later collapse in 1375 due to political disalignment between Viztulzka and Hetumoger. The aftermath of political disalignment created separate noble classes unique to their cultural alignment, the [[Nemesseg]], the [[Szlachta]] and the [[Lytsari]].

In the 9th century, three major powers had emerged within modern-day Vistuzka. The [[Duchy of Sarmat]], the [[Duchy of Géza]] and the [[Duchy of Pereya]]. These duchies were all paganistic in nature, and frequently entered into small wars with each other, known as the [[Three Duchy Wars]]. The three duchies had loosely followed [[Western Calesian paganism]] until the [[breakup of the First X Empire]] in 851. The breakup directly led to refugees entering the three duchies and subsequently introducing {{wpl|Christianity|Gregorianism}}. The Duke of Sarmat, [[Ziemomysł I]] converted to Georgianism in 855, and subsequently engaged in the [[Sarmat War]] in an attempt to unite the Duchies of Géza and Pereya under his banner. The Duchy of Sarmat and the Duchy of Pereya unified under the [[Treaty of Wełnica]] to become the [[Grand Duchy of Vistulzka]]

The Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka is a {{wpl|Unitary State|unitary}} {{wpl|Semi-Presidential System|semi-presidential}} {{wpl|republic}} that is governed on the basis of multi-party democracy that utilizes a "[[Politics of Vistulzka|Common Government]]", a form of government that emerged during the [[Atalan Political Heropleven]]. Its government is codified by the [[1921 constitution of Vistulzka|1921 constitution]] which is considered to be the governing principle and establishing document of Vistulzka. Vistulzka's government takes several ideas from [[Orthodoxist Republicanism]], one of the many new political ideas formed during the Political Heropleven. Vistulzka utilizes three branches of government, both "[[Politics of Vistulzka|separate but intertwined]]" government where all branches of the government were intertwined with each other.
The Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka is a {{wpl|Unitary State|unitary}} {{wpl|Semi-Presidential System|semi-presidential}} {{wpl|republic}} that is governed on the basis of a multi-party democracy wherein the [[President of Vistulzka]] is the {{wpl|head of state}} and shares power with the [[Marshal of Vistulzka]] as the {{wpl|head of government}}. The government is structured as a {{wpl|multi-party system|multi party}} {{wpl|representative democracy}} that takes specific ideas from [[Common Good Government]]. The current form of government of Vistulzka originated as the [[Vistulzkan Republic]] during the [[Vistulzkan Civil War]]. The [[Constitution of Vistulzka|1940 Constitution of Vistulzka]] was the codification and stands as the current governing principles and establishing document of the Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka.
 
The official name of Vistulzka is the Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka. The idea of an [[Orthodox Republic|orthodox republic]] is considered to be the evolution of a common good government. [[Orthodox Republicanism]] emerged during the [[Political Odrodzenie]] as a new political ideology.
 
[[File:Parliament_of_Hungary_November_2017.jpg|230px|thumb|left|The [[Włocławek National Legislative Building]], the seat of the [[Government of Vistulzka|National government]].]]The president is elected via a {{wpl|popular vote}} for a four-year term and is only allowed to be elected to the position twice. The president is responsible for the appointment of his marshal and the [[Head of the Ducal Council|head of the ducal council]] during the election cycle. Once elected, the President is able to appoint members into the [[Ducal Council]]. Appointment of members into the Ducal are entirely by the president and is not subjected to review or approval by the legislative branch. However, the legislative branch is freely able to dismantle the Ducal Council with a [[Council of Confidence]] that is initiated by a {{wpl|censure|censure vote}}. Within Vistulzkan politics, a censure vote requires 2/3rd of a majority within the Sejm. The success of a censure vote has severe political consequences for a presidential government, and the creation of a Council of Confidence severely limits the power of the executive branch in general. Alongside the dismantling of the Ducal Council, the office of the Marshal is vacated and replaced by the [[Speaker of the Sejm]].


[[File:Parliament_of_Hungary_November_2017.jpg|230px|thumb|The [[Włocławek National Legislative Building]], the seat of the [[Government of Vistulzka|Viswe national government]].]]
The [[National Legislature of Vistulzka]] is the {{wpl|bicameral}} legislative of the Vistulzkan branch, comprised of the {{wpl|upper house}} [[Sejm of Vistulzka|Sejm]] and the {{wpl|lower house}} [[Sejmek of Vistulzka|Sejmek]]. Both houses are elected through {{wpl|direct democracy}} at a local level.
Officially, the [[Office of the President of Vistulzka|Office of the President]] is elected within the [[Sjem of Vistulzka|Sejm]], where the members of the Sjem traditionally elect members of their own. The powers of the president are {{wp|executive (politics)|executive}} in nature and are split between the office and the Sjem. The office of the President is designed by the 1921 constitution to be the simultaneous {{wp|head of state}} and {{wp|head of government}}, and is reponsible for the the appointment of the [[Marshal of Vistulzka|Marshal]] and the [[Ducal Council (Vistulzka)|Ducal Council]], the executive branch's cabinet. The Marshal and the Ducal Council are responsible to answering to daily affairs to the Sjem. The President of Vistulzka is considered to have a more ceremonial role if the Marshal and the Ducal Council are able to function and hold support within the Sjem. However, if the Sjem initiates a {{wpl|Censure|censure vote}}, the powers of the Marshal and the Ducal Council are significantly diminished. Under this, the Sjem can create a [[Council of Confidence (Vistulzka)|Council of Confidence]] which will vacate the office of the Marshal and place those responsibilities on the Ducal Council.


Vistulzka has historically been a hotbed for political organizations with three parties making up the dominant block since 1925. The [[New Republican Coalition]] (NKR) have ruled Vistulzka since the end of the [[Second Cuthish War]], and is comprised of three dominant parties: the [[Orthodoxist Republican Party|Orthodoxist Republican Party]] (PPR), the [[Janssian-Orange Republican Party (Vistulzka)|Janssian-Orange Republican Party]] (PRJP) and the [[Blue Movement Party (Vistulzka)|Blue Movement Party]] (PBR). All three of these parties were founded in the immediate aftermath of the [[Recession of 1924]].
Vistulzka has historically been a hotspot for new political organizations and radical political ideologies. Since the end of the Vistulzkan Civil War, three governing parties make up the dominant {{wpl|political bloc}}, the [[New Republican Coalition]]. [[Orthodox Republican Party]] (PPR), [[Blue Cross Party]] the [[Chruściel-Orange Republican Party]] (PRJP) have ruled the country since the end of the Vistulzkan Civil War. Under the administration of [[Józef Kamiński]], it has been postulated that Vistulzka is in the beginning stages of {{wpl|democratic backsliding}}.

Vistulzka (Vistulzkan: Wiślańska; Hetumogye: Visztulaszág; Prykordonnyan: Віслаьща), officially the Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka and often times referred to as the Orthodox Republic, is a sovereign country located in Western Calesia. It borders X to the north, X to the west, X to the south, and Falland to the southeast, and it shares a maritime boundary with Waldrich across the Svalish Sea. Consisting of 54 states called Voivodeships, it is the third-largest country in Calesia, covering over 396,297 km2, and the fourth-most populous with over 41 million inhabitants. Additional, Vistulzka administers two territories under as the Overseas Vistulzkan Territories that are considered part of its constitutional dominion in the Medan Ocean: Utska and Jastarnia.

Vistulzka has been inhabited since the Last Glacial Age with various sets of artifacts dating back to the Lower Paleolithic period, when the area was dominated by various hunter-gatherer cultures. Vistulzka in late antiquity was inhabited by a mix of various tribes, known as the Proto-Sarmats. By the 800's, three paganistic duchies emerged and controlled the land: The Sarmats, the Gézans and the Pereyans. In 851, the Duke of the Sarmats Casimir III converted from paganism to Presterist Gregorianism after the breakup of the First Hernican Empire. His personal conversion and the subsequent conversion of the Sarmats began the Sarmat War, where the Sarmats invaded the Gézans. The war brought parts of the Duchy of Géza under the control of the Sarmats, and union of the Duchy of Pereya with the Duchy of Sarmat under the Treaty of Wełnica. The union of Sarmat and Pereya brought a new identity of statehood under a new country, the Grand Duchy of Vistulzka. In the aftermath of the war, the Gézans also converted towards Presterist Gregorianism and reformed into the First Kingdom of Hetumoger under Presterist Gregorianic auspices. The new Grand Duchy of Vistulzka became a dominant regional power in Western Calesia.

In 953, the Grand Duchy of Vistulzka and the First Kingdom of Hetumoger signed the Treaty of Asotthalom, which led to the creation of the Vistulzka-Hetumoger Kingdom. This kingdom lasted for almost three hundred years. In 1211, Vistulzka-Hetumoger was identified as one of the home states where the First Odrodzenie began, a revolutionary cultural and political movement. The First Odrodzenie brought about uniquely liberal changes to the internal politics of the Kingdom. Driven primarily by the advocation of civil liberties, it cemented Vistulzka's tradition of progressivism. Under calls for a new government to be established that better represented the people and guaranteed rights, King Ziemomysł II reorganized the country's political system. The new country rennamed itself from the Kingdom into the Vistulzka-Hetumoger Noble Republic. The new political system was based off of various ideas that were promogulated during the First Odrodzenie. Ziemomysł II himself still retained significant power, but distributed that power through the political system. The Noble Republic commissioned the Calesia's first constitution that was intended to function as a governing principle. It limited the power of the monarchy, creating and empowering a new state-backed legislature, the Noble Sejm. The Noble Republic continued for over 150 years, and collapsed in 1376 in the First Vistulzkan Civil War, between the King Ziemomysł IV and Head of the Noble Sejm, Árpád III. Political disalignment over the powers of the King and the Sejm caused the civil war. In the aftermath, powerful and influential noble classes appeared, the Nemesseg, the Szlachta and the Lytsari.


Vistulzka has a developed market and is considered to be a regional power alongside X. Officially, Vistulzka is still considered to be an "Orthodox Gregorianic" nation. However, Vistulzka provides both freedom of religion and over high standard of human rights. Vistulzka is a founding member of the United Congress, and the X.

History

Main article: History of Vistulzka

Antiquity

Vistulzka has been inhabited since the Stone Age by modern homo sapiens with archaic tools and artifacts being dates as far back as 20,000 years ago. It is believed that while Vistulzka alongside some neighboring countries have been inhabited since the Last Glacial Period, the climate conditions made the area inhospitable to permanent habitats. Archaic humans are believed to have began permanently settle Vistulzka in the 11,000 years ago with the rise of the neolithic Wełnica culture. Agricultural prospects in the area were meddling and as such, Vistulzka did not see any form of agriculture until 5,000 years ago. Before that, Vistulzka was dominated by various hunter-gatherer societies.

Agriculture and more formative tribal identities emerged in around 4,000 years ago where tools suitable for agriculture emerged. Wełnican tribes and settlements were aware of the Hernician Empire, and several settlements were on the Minervan Trail that crossed through Western Calesia from Central Calesia. Unlike the hostile tribes that inhabited Cheruscia in modern day X, X; the Wełnica openly traded with the Hernicians.

Three Duchies and Gregorianism

Main article: Three Duchies of Vistulzka

In the 9th century, three major powers had emerged within modern-day Vistuzka. The Duchy of Sarmat, the Duchy of Géza and the Duchy of Pereya. These duchies were all paganistic in nature, and frequently entered into small wars with each other, known as the Three Duchy Wars. The three duchies had loosely followed Western Calesian paganism until the breakup of the First X Empire in 851. The breakup directly led to refugees entering the three duchies and subsequently introducing Gregorianism. The Duke of Sarmat, Casimir III converted to Georgianism in 855, and subsequently engaged in the Sarmat War in an attempt to unite the Duchies of Géza and Pereya under his banner. The Duchy of Sarmat and the Duchy of Pereya unified under the Treaty of Wełnica to become the Grand Duchy of Vistulzka

The Duchy of Mazowszanie initially rebuked the idea of conversion.

The Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka is a unitary semi-presidential republic that is governed on the basis of a multi-party democracy wherein the President of Vistulzka is the head of state and shares power with the Marshal of Vistulzka as the head of government. The government is structured as a multi party representative democracy that takes specific ideas from Common Good Government. The current form of government of Vistulzka originated as the Vistulzkan Republic during the Vistulzkan Civil War. The 1940 Constitution of Vistulzka was the codification and stands as the current governing principles and establishing document of the Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka.

The official name of Vistulzka is the Orthodox Republic of Vistulzka. The idea of an orthodox republic is considered to be the evolution of a common good government. Orthodox Republicanism emerged during the Political Odrodzenie as a new political ideology.

The Włocławek National Legislative Building, the seat of the National government.

The president is elected via a popular vote for a four-year term and is only allowed to be elected to the position twice. The president is responsible for the appointment of his marshal and the head of the ducal council during the election cycle. Once elected, the President is able to appoint members into the Ducal Council. Appointment of members into the Ducal are entirely by the president and is not subjected to review or approval by the legislative branch. However, the legislative branch is freely able to dismantle the Ducal Council with a Council of Confidence that is initiated by a censure vote. Within Vistulzkan politics, a censure vote requires 2/3rd of a majority within the Sejm. The success of a censure vote has severe political consequences for a presidential government, and the creation of a Council of Confidence severely limits the power of the executive branch in general. Alongside the dismantling of the Ducal Council, the office of the Marshal is vacated and replaced by the Speaker of the Sejm.

The National Legislature of Vistulzka is the bicameral legislative of the Vistulzkan branch, comprised of the upper house Sejm and the lower house Sejmek. Both houses are elected through direct democracy at a local level.

Vistulzka has historically been a hotspot for new political organizations and radical political ideologies. Since the end of the Vistulzkan Civil War, three governing parties make up the dominant political bloc, the New Republican Coalition. Orthodox Republican Party (PPR), Blue Cross Party the Chruściel-Orange Republican Party (PRJP) have ruled the country since the end of the Vistulzkan Civil War. Under the administration of Józef Kamiński, it has been postulated that Vistulzka is in the beginning stages of democratic backsliding.
