==History==


==History==
===pre history and post modern age===
 
Early Daunlaund began with the original cheiftons that settled in and around the [[Lihonè River]]. The first city of Daunlaund and its modern capital [[Ronicon]] was founded at this time by the great king [[Ulípolí The Wise]] who is still a symbol of the city to this day. A decade later the cheifton of Daun and its main settlement thr city of [[Daun]] was founded. The cheifton of Daun quickly grew and conquered mosf of modern day west Daunlaund where as thd ceheifton of Ronicon absorbed the cheifton of Heliris.
 
The largest conflict in this period was the Great Southern War. This was around 72 AD and by this time minor cheiftons such as [[Ralta]] had fallen by this time and the main three that remained were [[Ereckia]], [[Daun]] and [[Ronicon]]. The Great Southern War lasted for two years and was fought between Ronicon and the ither two cheiftons who formed an allegiance agsinst it. At this time the Ereckians began to use soldiers called ''Louskretta'' which have become the infamous warriors and symbols of [[Ereckia]]. Daun and Ereckia defeated Ronicon. Daunlaund was united for thd first time under the crown of Herra and King Uílssa I.
 
===The Drechè Empire===
 
In the year 76 AD The King of newly unified Daunlaund and The King of [[Havadar]] singned a treaty at the border town of [[Drechè]], this treaty unified the two crowns. For the next three hundred years the empire which has come to be known as The Drechè Empire due to where it was signed was extremely advanced for its time in the fact that thd Daunlaundic and Havadarian kingdoms operated as two seperate countries within the empire. The military might of The Empure saw Daunlaundic territory expand rapidly into what are now the provinces of [[Vask]], [[Ventroven]] and [[Észtlúew]]. There was an eventual schism between the crowns of Daunlaund snd Havadar in 1000 which would lead to the empire's collapse a decade later. Daunlaund and its army fought hard to keep and ebentually secure its territory that it had gained during the Drèche Empire.
 
===Early Imperial Age===
 
Daunlaund started to build its influence in the region. This really came to ahead with Petrov I who pumped an incredible amount of money into the town of [[Ferúston]] and its port in the year 1490, along with this new port came a huge royal grant to build a large fleet. Wood was taken primarily from the [[Vask]] province and with this new navy Daunlaund began to spread its influence setting up ports all over North and South Utopia. There were significant conflicts in places such as [[Berantoba]] as the Daunlaundic Empire took a foothold in the far north.
 
[[File:DaunicAnkaranWar.jpeg|thumb|centre|240px|The Daunic-Ankaran War]]
 
There too was conflict with [[West Ankara]] over the Southern ports which today make up The [[Republic of Southern Merchants]], Ankara was not impressed by Daunlaund's interference in the Ankaran Sea. In the new city of [[Doraví]] (The modern capital of the RSM) Ankaran ships landed at ghe port and proceeded to burn the city's buildings killing thirty people. Petrov was so angered by this that he had a fleet of reinforcement to secure the sea around Doraví. The following battles would go on for months as the Daunlaundic state sunk trememdous amounts of money into it's navy to help fight the Ankarans. Despite this Daunlaund was loosing men and ships rapidly. In an effort not to loose its grip in the Ankaran Sea completely Petrov orginised a meeting between himself and The Ankaran head of state. They agreed to share the ports as long as the Daunlaundic navy sailed no closer to Ankara.
 
===Fúra IV and Deterioration of The Monarchy===
 
Fúra IV reigned as the king of all Daunlaund from 1646-1661. He was placed on the throne after the death of hos father at age five. Daunlaund up until this time hsd remained very stable and a giant on the world stage. Fúra was too young to tule at this stage and so his uncle Alfúr managed the throne for him until he was sixteen. Alfúr unlike his predescessors did not care for Daunlaund's place on yhe world stage and proceeded to use the country's wealth to suit his own needs. Alfúr built over two hundred and fifty royal estates in [[Daun]] Province alone. It got to the extent where the government set up the Ministry for Royal Infrastructure. The Daunlaundic people were not impressed by Alfúrs acts of wasting money on his own pleasure. Some ministers even considered stepping in to take ghe reigns after he lost the territory of Bærn to [[Berantoba]].
 
[[File:RoniconRevolu.jpeg|thumb|centre|240px|The Ronicon Revolution began the reign of Katerina The Wise]]
 
When Fúra got a hold of the throne in 1646 he faced problems from failing infrastructure in the nation's capital [[Ronicon]] to people's revolts against the monarchy. On top of that Fúra had noblemen left right and centre eyeing the throne with the intent to take it. One noblewoman did. Katerina Magléder was born in The Province of [[Észtlúew]] but was forced to move to [[Ronicon]] when she was fifteen due to Alfúr starting a war with [[Erskiellander]] which spread to Észtlúew. She despised Fúra and his lack of capability. She also had a knack for public speaking. She and her father gathered support for a rebellion against Fúra IV with the intent of putting her father on the throne.
 
Katerina led a crowd of 50,000 towards the Royal Palaces in the centre of [[Ronicon]] who quickly overpowered the royal guards. Her father was killed in thd storming of the palace snd do she made the decision to take the throne and become Empress of all Daunlaund. It is said that Katerina severed thd head of Fúra IV herself. It is recorded that she came out onto the steps of the palace holding a sword in one hand and his head in the other.

===Rejuvenation under Katerina The Wise===


Daunlaund began as the seven provinces of Heliris, Ronicon, Daun, Derosé, Ferús, Nordor and Ereckia. These are todays mainland provinces. The Daunlaund at this time was known as the kingdom of Daunlaund, the industry was made up of agriculture and mining for tin, copper and iron. The kingdom is believed to have been established when the seven cheiftens came together to form one kingdom at the Ronicon Grove around 850ad. In 947ad the current countries of Havadar,Daunlaund, new wolvers (south) and Daarlerveen (northern bit) the empire was called the Dreché empire. It began to crumble in 970ad The king couldnt keep up with his centralizing policy anymore and the nobility began to revolt against him. A lot of them broke away and created their own counties. We call this the First Great Scission. You should know that the empire was enormous. It stretched over whole of modern day Daunlaund, Havadar, Latuaras, the north of New Wolvers and a large part of Daarlerveen. With the 1st Great Scission the king lost whole New Wolvers, a part of Daarlerveen and also the Daunlaundic modern day provinces Heliris, Nordor, Ronicon and Derose. In the 2nd Great Scission of 1125 the remaining (now foreign) parts split away from the Dreché empire. Daunlaund tgen became an independent monarchy until...
Under Katerina Daunlaund was rejuvinated. She led an aggressive foreign policy which saw the expansion of the Daunlaundic Empire. Katerina established such instotutions as The [[Daunlaundoc National Bank]] her reign brought new wealth to the country. Katerina was a patron of the arts, literature, and education. The Hermitage Museum, which now occupies the whole Former Royal Palace, began as Katerina's personal collection. The empress was a great lover of art and books, and ordered the construction of the Hermitage in 1770 to house her expanding collection of paintings, sculpture, and books. As many of her democratic principles frightened her more moderate and experienced advisors, she refrained from immediately putting them into practice. After holding more than 200 sittings, the so-called Commission dissolved without getting beyond the realm of theory. Katerina is reverred as pissibly the greatest Daunlaundic monarch there was. There are numerous statues of her in Ronicon with two of the largest being outside the former Royal palace and in from of the Dauntage. On 29 October 1723, Katerina rose early in the morning and had her usual morning coffee, soon settling down to work on papers; she told her lady's maid, Mary Vogúlssen, that she had slept better than she had in a long time. Sometime after 9:00 she was found on the floor with her face purplish, her pulse weak, her breathing shallow and laboured. The court physician diagnosed a stroke and despite attempts to revive her she fell into a coma. She was given the last rites and died the following evening around 9:45. An autopsy confirmed stroke as the cause of death.

==Government==
==Government==


The Daunlaundic government is made up of a govenor for each Province a secondary advisor fourteen minisrty heads. The government head is the chancellor who is elected every three years. Elections work in a rotation system where the top three of six political parties agree to rotate for a year each. If there is an outright majority for one party then they will do all three years. Party leaders become Chancellor if there party gets a majority. If their party comes second they become scindary administrator (vice chancellor. There are three houses the Dauntagé(parliment), olétagè(senate) and the Volkstagé(peoples senate).
Daunlaund is a democratic, federal parliamentary republic, where federal legislative power is vested in the Volkstage (the parliament of Daunlaund) and the Dauntage (the representative body of the Launden, Daunlaund's provinces).
 
The multilateral system has, since 1831, been dominated by the Democratic Peoples Union (DVU), the Social Democratic Party of Daunlaund (PSD) and the Daunlaundic Conservatives (PKD). The judiciary of Daunlaund is independent of the executive and the legislature, while it is common for leading members of the executive to be members of the legislature as well. The political system is laid out in the 1831 constitution, the Einfrúntlettren (Basic Law).
 
The constitution emphasizes the protection of individual liberty in an extensive catalogue of human and civil rights and divides powers both between the federal and state levels and between the legislative, executive and judicial branches.
 
Daunlaund was a founding member of the Utopian Union in 1967. Daunlaund is part of the Free Movement Pact. It is a member of the Universal Pact.
 
===Legislature===
 
Federal legislative power is divided between the Volkstage and the Dauntage. The Volkstage is directly elected by the Daunlaundic people, while the Dauntage represents the governments of the regional states (Launden). The federal legislature has powers of exclusive jurisdiction and concurrent jurisdiction with the states in areas specified in the constitution.
 
The Volkstage is more powerful than the Dauntage and only needs the latter's consent for proposed legislation related to revenue shared by the federal and state governments, and the imposition of responsibilities on the states. In practice, however, the agreement of the Dauntage in the legislative process is often required, since federal legislation frequently has to be executed by state or local agencies. In the event of disagreement between the Volkstage and the Dauntage, either side can appeal to the Staatsgrechtenlauwkongreiss to find a compromise.
 
===Volkstage===
 
The Volkstage (Peoples Diet) is elected for a four-year term and consists of 570 or more members elected by a means of mixed-member proportional representation, which Daunlaundics call "personalised proportional representation". 140 members represent single-seat constituencies and are elected by a first past the post electoral system. Parties that obtain fewer constituency seats than their national share of the vote are allotted seats from party lists to make up the difference. In contrast, parties that obtain more constituency seats than their national share of the vote are allowed to keep these so-called overhang seats. The current
Dauntage has 710 members.
 
[[File:Parlament Wien abends.jpg|250px|thumb|center|The Konigstage Buildings, home to the Volkstage and Dauntage]]
 
A party must receive either five percent of the national vote or win at least three directly elected seats to be eligible for non-constituency seats in the Volkstage. This rule, often called the "five percent hurdle", was incorporated into Daunlaund's election law to prevent political fragmentation and disproportionately influential minority parties.
 
The first Volkstage elections were held in the Third Republic of Daunlaund  on 14 August 1831.
 
===Judiciary===
 
Daunlaund follows the civil law tradition. The judicial system comprises three types of courts.


Ordinary courts, dealing with criminal and most civil cases, are the most numerous by far. The Federal Court of Justice of Daunlaund (Launderkørtvesze) is the highest ordinary court and also the highest court of appeals.
Specialized courts hear cases related to administrative, labour, social, fiscal and patent law.
Constitutional courts focus on judicial review and constitutional interpretation. The Federal Constitutional Court (Launderkørtkonsteisze) is the highest court dealing with constitutional matters.
The main difference between the Federal Constitutional Court and the Federal Court of Justice is that the Federal Constitutional Court may only be called if a constitutional matter within a case is in question (e.g. a possible violation of human rights in a criminal trial), while the Federal Court of Justice may be called in any case.

Daunlaund is a federal republic located in the Utopian Continents. It is bordered by Havadar, New Wolvers, Erskiellander, Latuaras, Neviersia and The Utopiani Republic. Daunlaund has a poulation of 53 Million and the capital is Ronicon City.

Daunlaund started as many differeng chieftons based around the Lihoné River the chieftom who first founded the city of Ronicon was Ulípolí The Wise who became a symbol of early Daunlaund and is still a symbol of the coty of Ronicon. The chiefton of Ralta was found in the northern mountains of what is today Heliris Province and reached northerly to Herlirisílakka where the coty of Heliris was founded.

The largest chiefton Ereckia was known for its fierce warriors or Louskretta in Daunlaundic. The chiefton of Ereckia had conquered six other Daunlaundic cheiftond by 260 BC. Under the rule of Ría Thd Conqueror Thd forst unified Daunlaundic kingdom was founded. It existed until 191 AD when the Daunlaundic and Havadarian crowns unfied to form a joint empire. It is one of the longest lasting empires in Utopian history dissolving in 1010 AD. The Daunlaundic empire continued as a sovreign body until 1625 AD when Katerina The Wise possibly Daunlaund's greatest monarch died and left no heir leading to seven years of war between Daunlaundic nobles in an effort to gain the throne.

Leopold I ascended to the throne in 1632 declaring a Second Daunlaundic Empire. He and his son Leopold II went on an aggressive rampage theoughout The Utopias conquering nearly 1/3 of the world's landmass. The Second Empire was brought to an end through the Daunic-Erskillian War in which Erskiellander invaded Daunlaund. The war ended with the Siege of Heliris before The Daunlaundoc Emperor Aleksandra IIV was forced to abdicate the throne in 1819. A new Daunlaundic Republic comminly refferred to as the First Republic lasted until 1824 before a monarchist coup overthew the government in placed by the Erskillians. In 1826 The Erskillian governmemt deployed troops in Daunlaund and instated a new republic, The Second Daunlaundic Republic it only lasted until 1831 as another monarchist rebel surge spread through the country. This time the monarchy wasnog instated. The Emperor and her family were executed by the state before tgey could reclaim the throne. Now in only twenty years Daunlaund was istating a new republic, the Third Daunlaundic Republic which is still in existance to this day.

In the modern era Daunlaund has become an economic power and is one of the world's weakthiest sovreign states.

History

pre history and post modern age

Early Daunlaund began with the original cheiftons that settled in and around the Lihonè River. The first city of Daunlaund and its modern capital Ronicon was founded at this time by the great king Ulípolí The Wise who is still a symbol of the city to this day. A decade later the cheifton of Daun and its main settlement thr city of Daun was founded. The cheifton of Daun quickly grew and conquered mosf of modern day west Daunlaund where as thd ceheifton of Ronicon absorbed the cheifton of Heliris.

The largest conflict in this period was the Great Southern War. This was around 72 AD and by this time minor cheiftons such as Ralta had fallen by this time and the main three that remained were Ereckia, Daun and Ronicon. The Great Southern War lasted for two years and was fought between Ronicon and the ither two cheiftons who formed an allegiance agsinst it. At this time the Ereckians began to use soldiers called Louskretta which have become the infamous warriors and symbols of Ereckia. Daun and Ereckia defeated Ronicon. Daunlaund was united for thd first time under the crown of Herra and King Uílssa I.

The Drechè Empire

In the year 76 AD The King of newly unified Daunlaund and The King of Havadar singned a treaty at the border town of Drechè, this treaty unified the two crowns. For the next three hundred years the empire which has come to be known as The Drechè Empire due to where it was signed was extremely advanced for its time in the fact that thd Daunlaundic and Havadarian kingdoms operated as two seperate countries within the empire. The military might of The Empure saw Daunlaundic territory expand rapidly into what are now the provinces of Vask, Ventroven and Észtlúew. There was an eventual schism between the crowns of Daunlaund snd Havadar in 1000 which would lead to the empire's collapse a decade later. Daunlaund and its army fought hard to keep and ebentually secure its territory that it had gained during the Drèche Empire.

Early Imperial Age

Daunlaund started to build its influence in the region. This really came to ahead with Petrov I who pumped an incredible amount of money into the town of Ferúston and its port in the year 1490, along with this new port came a huge royal grant to build a large fleet. Wood was taken primarily from the Vask province and with this new navy Daunlaund began to spread its influence setting up ports all over North and South Utopia. There were significant conflicts in places such as Berantoba as the Daunlaundic Empire took a foothold in the far north.

The Daunic-Ankaran War

There too was conflict with West Ankara over the Southern ports which today make up The Republic of Southern Merchants, Ankara was not impressed by Daunlaund's interference in the Ankaran Sea. In the new city of Doraví (The modern capital of the RSM) Ankaran ships landed at ghe port and proceeded to burn the city's buildings killing thirty people. Petrov was so angered by this that he had a fleet of reinforcement to secure the sea around Doraví. The following battles would go on for months as the Daunlaundic state sunk trememdous amounts of money into it's navy to help fight the Ankarans. Despite this Daunlaund was loosing men and ships rapidly. In an effort not to loose its grip in the Ankaran Sea completely Petrov orginised a meeting between himself and The Ankaran head of state. They agreed to share the ports as long as the Daunlaundic navy sailed no closer to Ankara.

Fúra IV and Deterioration of The Monarchy

Fúra IV reigned as the king of all Daunlaund from 1646-1661. He was placed on the throne after the death of hos father at age five. Daunlaund up until this time hsd remained very stable and a giant on the world stage. Fúra was too young to tule at this stage and so his uncle Alfúr managed the throne for him until he was sixteen. Alfúr unlike his predescessors did not care for Daunlaund's place on yhe world stage and proceeded to use the country's wealth to suit his own needs. Alfúr built over two hundred and fifty royal estates in Daun Province alone. It got to the extent where the government set up the Ministry for Royal Infrastructure. The Daunlaundic people were not impressed by Alfúrs acts of wasting money on his own pleasure. Some ministers even considered stepping in to take ghe reigns after he lost the territory of Bærn to Berantoba.

The Ronicon Revolution began the reign of Katerina The Wise

When Fúra got a hold of the throne in 1646 he faced problems from failing infrastructure in the nation's capital Ronicon to people's revolts against the monarchy. On top of that Fúra had noblemen left right and centre eyeing the throne with the intent to take it. One noblewoman did. Katerina Magléder was born in The Province of Észtlúew but was forced to move to Ronicon when she was fifteen due to Alfúr starting a war with Erskiellander which spread to Észtlúew. She despised Fúra and his lack of capability. She also had a knack for public speaking. She and her father gathered support for a rebellion against Fúra IV with the intent of putting her father on the throne.

Katerina led a crowd of 50,000 towards the Royal Palaces in the centre of Ronicon who quickly overpowered the royal guards. Her father was killed in thd storming of the palace snd do she made the decision to take the throne and become Empress of all Daunlaund. It is said that Katerina severed thd head of Fúra IV herself. It is recorded that she came out onto the steps of the palace holding a sword in one hand and his head in the other.

Rejuvenation under Katerina The Wise

Under Katerina Daunlaund was rejuvinated. She led an aggressive foreign policy which saw the expansion of the Daunlaundic Empire. Katerina established such instotutions as The Daunlaundoc National Bank her reign brought new wealth to the country. Katerina was a patron of the arts, literature, and education. The Hermitage Museum, which now occupies the whole Former Royal Palace, began as Katerina's personal collection. The empress was a great lover of art and books, and ordered the construction of the Hermitage in 1770 to house her expanding collection of paintings, sculpture, and books. As many of her democratic principles frightened her more moderate and experienced advisors, she refrained from immediately putting them into practice. After holding more than 200 sittings, the so-called Commission dissolved without getting beyond the realm of theory. Katerina is reverred as pissibly the greatest Daunlaundic monarch there was. There are numerous statues of her in Ronicon with two of the largest being outside the former Royal palace and in from of the Dauntage. On 29 October 1723, Katerina rose early in the morning and had her usual morning coffee, soon settling down to work on papers; she told her lady's maid, Mary Vogúlssen, that she had slept better than she had in a long time. Sometime after 9:00 she was found on the floor with her face purplish, her pulse weak, her breathing shallow and laboured. The court physician diagnosed a stroke and despite attempts to revive her she fell into a coma. She was given the last rites and died the following evening around 9:45. An autopsy confirmed stroke as the cause of death.

Government

Daunlaund is a democratic, federal parliamentary republic, where federal legislative power is vested in the Volkstage (the parliament of Daunlaund) and the Dauntage (the representative body of the Launden, Daunlaund's provinces).

The multilateral system has, since 1831, been dominated by the Democratic Peoples Union (DVU), the Social Democratic Party of Daunlaund (PSD) and the Daunlaundic Conservatives (PKD). The judiciary of Daunlaund is independent of the executive and the legislature, while it is common for leading members of the executive to be members of the legislature as well. The political system is laid out in the 1831 constitution, the Einfrúntlettren (Basic Law).

The constitution emphasizes the protection of individual liberty in an extensive catalogue of human and civil rights and divides powers both between the federal and state levels and between the legislative, executive and judicial branches.

Daunlaund was a founding member of the Utopian Union in 1967. Daunlaund is part of the Free Movement Pact. It is a member of the Universal Pact.

Legislature

Federal legislative power is divided between the Volkstage and the Dauntage. The Volkstage is directly elected by the Daunlaundic people, while the Dauntage represents the governments of the regional states (Launden). The federal legislature has powers of exclusive jurisdiction and concurrent jurisdiction with the states in areas specified in the constitution.

The Volkstage is more powerful than the Dauntage and only needs the latter's consent for proposed legislation related to revenue shared by the federal and state governments, and the imposition of responsibilities on the states. In practice, however, the agreement of the Dauntage in the legislative process is often required, since federal legislation frequently has to be executed by state or local agencies. In the event of disagreement between the Volkstage and the Dauntage, either side can appeal to the Staatsgrechtenlauwkongreiss to find a compromise.

Volkstage

The Volkstage (Peoples Diet) is elected for a four-year term and consists of 570 or more members elected by a means of mixed-member proportional representation, which Daunlaundics call "personalised proportional representation". 140 members represent single-seat constituencies and are elected by a first past the post electoral system. Parties that obtain fewer constituency seats than their national share of the vote are allotted seats from party lists to make up the difference. In contrast, parties that obtain more constituency seats than their national share of the vote are allowed to keep these so-called overhang seats. The current Dauntage has 710 members.

The Konigstage Buildings, home to the Volkstage and Dauntage

A party must receive either five percent of the national vote or win at least three directly elected seats to be eligible for non-constituency seats in the Volkstage. This rule, often called the "five percent hurdle", was incorporated into Daunlaund's election law to prevent political fragmentation and disproportionately influential minority parties.

The first Volkstage elections were held in the Third Republic of Daunlaund on 14 August 1831.

Judiciary

Daunlaund follows the civil law tradition. The judicial system comprises three types of courts.

Ordinary courts, dealing with criminal and most civil cases, are the most numerous by far. The Federal Court of Justice of Daunlaund (Launderkørtvesze) is the highest ordinary court and also the highest court of appeals. Specialized courts hear cases related to administrative, labour, social, fiscal and patent law. Constitutional courts focus on judicial review and constitutional interpretation. The Federal Constitutional Court (Launderkørtkonsteisze) is the highest court dealing with constitutional matters. The main difference between the Federal Constitutional Court and the Federal Court of Justice is that the Federal Constitutional Court may only be called if a constitutional matter within a case is in question (e.g. a possible violation of human rights in a criminal trial), while the Federal Court of Justice may be called in any case.

Foreign Relations and Military

Daunlaund has exellent relations with other Universal Pact as well as other nations such as Austrailia and Japan. Daunlaund's main trading parteners are Havadar and Cansilica. Daunlaund shares a trade agreement with Havadar called the HDTU (Havadarian, Daunlaundic, Trade, Union.) Havadar is widely regarded as Daunlaund's best trading partners.

Daunlaund has a neutral policy but somtimes Daunlaund can't help wether it is for the protexrion of itself or allies get into wars. Daunlaund has the largest navy in the Universal Pact, and a strong army, the airforce is relativly weak. Along with Havadar (HDTU) and the rest of its allies Daunlaund is very strong via military but prefers to be neutral when it comes to conflict.
