The '''National Development Party''' | The '''Kokka Hatten Tō''', known in [[Seuria|Seurian]] as the National Development Party (NDP) and often shortened as the '''Kottento''' is the sole ruling party of [[Neo-Korea]], founded shortly after the end of the [[Kāichrén Civil War]] by [[Hikaru Sakuma]] after the abolishing of the State Unity Congress and his previous political organization, the Kokumintō. The Kottento and the Kokumintō both existed as an attempt to demilitarize the organization of the state in accordance with Hikaru's political doctrine of "[[Pan-Hiakemirism]] for the Modern Era", which called for a single party with many wings - with the hopes that this shared umbrella system would prevent both the over-centralization seen with the [[Revolutionary Alliance Party|Kakumei Dōmeitō]] and the hostility between figures in the governmental systems seen in multi-party democratic systems. | ||
The | The Kottento was founded in 1961, following the formation of the [[Central Governing Council]] - replacing the previously existing Kokumintō due to the excessive factionalism which had begun to be seen in the latter, more specifically the prominence of Kāichrén nationalist factions within such which were opposed to Hikaru on the basis of his failure to persecute the reconquest of Jungg'o immediately after reunification. With the formation of the Kottento, these factions could be isolated and weakened, while [[Nitta Michi]] and [[Fukuda Chiasa]]'s own factions could be empowered to a far greater extent. | ||
The party leader has historically been the Head of State, although this tradition was breached during the CGC Period, where the role of party Chairman and Head of State became synonymous due to the death of [[Hikaru Sakuma]] and the inability of the party to agree on a candidate to resume the role of Paramount Leader. The Kottento is the longest-lasting [[Pan-Hiakemirist]] party in existence, and has therefore acted as the primary model upon which other modern Pan-Hiakemirist parties, as few as they are, base their organization. | |||
Economically, the party has shifted repeatedly throughout positions throughout history, with the [[Iminchebol]]'s status in the state being the clearest sign of such - first being kept at arms-length under the reign of Hikaru himself, then being gradually incorporated into political organization under the leaders of the CGC Period, and then seeing a rapid process of incorporation into the state under [[Beom Dae]], or more specifically after the [[1995 Reforms]] which saw the abolishment of the currency. This abolishment of currency has become the primary economic position of modern Pan-Hiakemirism, with it being seen as the main way to ensure cooperation between the trifecta of state, worker, and corporate entity through ensuring that work was engaged in as a means of contributing to the national situation and not out of base requirements for survival. | |||

=== | ===Kokumintō=== | ||
The Kokumintō, or National Party, was founded by [[Hikaru Sakuma]] in early 1951, shortly after the formation of the [[Provisional Directorate of the Yanshen]] - which he declared himself the [[Kantoku]] of similarly early into the year. The Kokumintō and Directorate as a whole were legitimizations of the seizure of the south by Hikaru's own [[Southern Defensive Army]], which possessed an advantage over other potential unifiers in the form of its centralized leadership and lack of direct divisions. The Kokumintō was designed to maintain these advantages - by organizing early democratic systems, it ensured that a civilian wing existed which could act as a counterweight to the rise of ambitious or particularly violent generals outside of Hikaru's direct supervision. The Kokumintō would initially succeed in this goal, but would find itself rapidly infiltrated by the prominent groups of the pre-KCW period, specifically [[Kāichrén]] nationalist forces lead by [[Mae Toshiaki]], who called for the beginning of war against [[Jungg'o]] after the reunification of the Yanshen proper. | |||
The Kāichrén nationalists would be opposed by the twin figures of [[Nitta Michi]] and [[Fukuda Chiasa]], who - while utterly opposed to one another in policy and general doctrine - both agreed that the party could not be allowed to fall under the leadership of the Toshiaki faction due to the threat such prevented to the stabilization of politics. This agreement between the two would lead to what was essentially a prolonged campaign of internal violence between each other, ending in the collapse of Toshiaki's faction when it was revealed that he had accepted payment from [[Hitosutai]] leader [[Saeki Kichirou]] in the past. This scandal, while in any other case minor, allowed for Nitta and Fukuda to put forwards charges that Toshiaki was a traitor, and therefore that he had to be removed for the purposes of winning the conflict - an excuse eagerly accepted by [[Tzeng Jirou]], who had possessed his own hostilities towards the Toshiaki faction over their association with [[Duàn Renshu]]. | |||
The end of the factional crisis would allow the two to push forwards their own reorganization plan, designed to prevent the continued influence of nationalist forces in the party by centering it around their own factional groupings instead - with the hopes that with a period of wartime consolidation, they would be able to secure leadership from the other in the aftermath of such. Hikaru would accept this proposal, and by the end of the conflict had set up the fundamental organizational blocks of a new party, which he named the National Development Party, or Kokka Hatten Tō - named to show the character of the new government and the pursuit such would take in the period after the KCW. | |||
===Founding=== | ===Founding=== | ||
The Kottento would be formed shortly after the reunification of the Yanshen, with [[Neo-Korea]] and the title of Paramount Leader emerging in September, while the Kottento emerged in December. The early Kottento would be defined by the struggle between Michi and Chiasa, who respectively represented the "left" and "right" of the party, this distinction based primarily on economic priorities, with Michi focusing upon a doctrine of National-[[Lorism]] inspired direct state management of corporate enterprise, while Chiasa would bolster the [[Iminchebol]] and argue in favor of a State-Partist economy wherein the state took a broadly directorial but not directly managerial role in the organization of these enterprises. Between the two, the Anzen as lead by [[Tzeng Jirou]] would take no major economic positions, instead primarily focusing on security concerns and the extension of Jirou's own power into broader spheres of society. Other factions would form, but these groups were minor in comparison to the dueling struggle between the Michi-Chiasa groupings, and for the most part did not continue to exist in a notable sense after their formation. Some of these groups would play a role in the creation of later internal factions, however. | |||
Shortly into its existence, the [[First Conference of the Kokka Hatten Tō]] would be organized, which sought to establish a coherent political and economic majority position for those within the party. This conference would eventually result in the dominance of the Chiasa faction, known in this period as the Soshikikkō, while Michi's Seitei-ha would find itself unable to influence economic policy to the extent they had desired. The Setei-ha would, however, secure control over many of the newly established cultural institutions of the state, in an attempt to placate them in the wake of [[Hikaru Sakuma]]'s support for Iminchebol-centric economic policy. | |||

In provincial governments where the Seitei-ha had seized power, the Iminchebol would in many cases be sidelined in favor of [[Sangyōmyūn]], industrial groups controlling key factories organized and operated primarily by state-controlled (and therefore Seitei-ha controlled) unions, who were given preferential treatment by these provinces in regards to the distribution of reconstruction work. Members of the Soshikikkō would, meanwhile, do the same in favor of Iminchebol in those provinces they controlled, meaning that reconstruction programs were essentially split between the two factions of the party, and therefore that coordination between provinces was far harder to achieve due to these economic differences. This disruption in the process of reconstruction would finally incur Hikaru's anger after it began to effect the acquiring of armaments for the military, and he would eventually intervene in favor of the Iminchebol, forcibly disbanding several Sangyōmyūn and mandating that the remainder be reorganized as Iminchebol. | ||
Within this period, the state also worked to attempt to militarily re-establish itself, with a number of border conflicts with [[Jungg'o]] proving that the post-KCW military required wide scale reforms in order to allow for the continued protection of the state.

This proposal, while against the Iminchebol who had supported him, was adopted by Hikaru - who believed that it would provide a means of ensuring the quality of the armaments produced, alongside having the added benefit of allowing for control over those appointed to head such ventures. The state would also attempt to engage in broader foreign relations, looking primarily towards the creation of political bodies separate from its previous allies during the [[Great War (Esvanovia)|Great War]], who Hikaru and the political class as a whole held an enduring grudge against due to their signing of peace with Marquesan. These efforts would be broadly ineffective, with the state only having mild success in establishing trade ties with nations such as the [[Republic of Matsumae]], and failing utterly to form any sort of counter-block to either Meridon or Marquesan.
