The First Inglaterran Confederacy (Inglaterran: Earste Inglatereesk Konfederaasje), officially named the Confederacy of Inglaterra, was the government of Inglaterra from its independence in 1899 to the Kompar Coup of 1935.
Following the independence of Inglaterra from Greater Niagara in 1899, the country was organized under a decentralized confederacy with a democratically elected government. This decentralized nature was designed to grant concessions to lingual minorities and to appease Frigan speakers in a country previously dominated by Inglaterran speakers.
In its initial years, grave problems beset the Confederacy, such as economic woes and dissatisfaction with the new government, including political murders and several secession attempts from nationalists of minority groups; internationally, it suffered a lack in power and reduced diplomatic standing, as the formidable Niagaran Navy no longer protected the country and weakened its standing worldwide. Additionally, countries like Alanna refused to deal with the Confederacy in fear that their own colonial possession may one day rebel as well. By 1910, the economy had stabilized and with it the political system, and the Confederacy enjoyed relative prosperity for the next three decades; this period, sometimes known as the Golden Years, was characterised by significant cultural flourishing, social progress, and gradual improvement in standards of living. Under the Pensioner Act of 1910, Inglaterra moved toward becoming one of the first states to implement a robust pension system, and trade agreements had returned some diplomatic power to the Confederacy. Nevertheless, especially on the political left, there remained strong and widespread resentment against the former colonial aristocracy which still dominated politics and those who had supported it.
Despite the democratic nature of the Confederacy, the politics of the day were dominated by the urban cities in the far east and far west of the country. This political system, known as Potato Bread Politics, effectively meant that the presidency was handed from the two center parties, the Confederalists and the Social Republican Party, both of which were supported by the aristocracy. Many landowners and employers would encourage their workers to vote for certain candidates in races or lose their jobs and homes, effectively meaning the power of the system lay with the upper classes. After the First Great War ended, the subsequent social and political unrest led to the rise in the Communist Party of Inglaterra or KMI, also known as the Kompars. In 1935, the Communist candidate, former soldier and journalist Karl Hoeven, narrowly lost to former general Adolphus Hiet, by less than 1% of the total vote. This led to Hoeven marching on Aachtigen with a contingent of troops and seizing the government by force. Hiet would be publicly executed after being captured trying to defend the palace himself. Hoeven would crack down on political oppositon and brought about a swift collapse of democratic government. By 1939, the country would be firmly under his control.
