New Gandor, officially the Greater Republic of New Gandor (Gandorian: Nowy Gąsior) is a Medium sized nation on the main Eastern landmass of Terraconserva. It is bordered to the south, east, and west by ocean, to the north by unclaimed territory, and above that Eminople. New Gandor's capital city is New Union City, but Iornbarron is considered the largest in the country. New Gandor is one of the original founding members of the Terraconserva Council of Nations. New Gandor is also a member of The Blue Economic Zone. New Gandor was unoffically founded in the year 208 C.E. as a result of The New Gandorian Secession, a sect of The Great Divide. A loosely associate Commonwealth was formed right after, but the system was doomed to fail. In 1660 a civil war broke out between Nationalists and Loyalists. The civil war lasted forty four years and concluded with the creation of the Greater Republic. In 1710 a Constitution was created on the foundations of fairness to all, a strong military, a booming economy, and above all faith. New Gandor is currently allies with Greater Sacramento and Eminople, including trade, and politics. New Gandor also has ties with Creeperopolis. The current leader is President Jacob Morgan
History
The Great Divide
The Great Divide started around 208 C.E. At the beginning of the Civil War four groups started to form. There were the Loyalists who fought on the side of Titus Ferro. There was the Monarchists who wanted a king to rule Eminople. There was the Republicans who wanted a more democratic state. And then there was a sect of the Republicans called New Gandor who wanted to secede from the Empire. The battles were bloody and still to this day are the bloodiest battles ever in Eminoplean history. The two strongest sides were the Loyalists and Republicans who quickly steamrolled the Monarchists and went on to fight bloody battles on the countryside and the capital of Eminople which was called Orleans. The war lasted for around fifteen years and almost destroyed the whole country in the process. In the end the Republicans won. Since New Gandor wanted to secede and the Republicans didn't want to continue the fighting they allowed New Gandor to secede the southern part of Eminople.
The Commonwealth Era and The New Gandorian Civil War
Down south New Gandor attempted to build a loosely associated Commonwealth on Republican values with the three things as a priority Faith in God, defense through military, and an efficient economy through trade. These were called the 3 core values. The 3 core values led the country to greatness. A millennia later greed swept the nation. The leader was a puppet to many wealthy citizens and the Economy was the main focus of the greedy elite, and the average citizen began to suffer. The 3 core values New Gandor was founded on seemed lost and replaced with a system much like a monarchy. New Gandor was shrouded in darkness. Hundreds of years pass and in 1660 a Nationalist spark ignites New Gandor once again. A group called The Easterners. These Nationalists fought against the corrupted and tyrannical old government of New Gandor. New Gandor was now in it's own civil war.
New Gandor was divided East and West. The East called Eastern New Gandor or Easterners or the Nationalists. The West including Union City (modern New Union City) occupied by the Old Regime. Greater Sacramento came to the aid of the Easterners, seeing their cause as one to spread democracy and better the lives of people in New Gandor. Due to the invention of muskets and the use of cannons, the bloodshed through out the country was great. The bloodiest being The Battle of Union City. Out of the entire male population of New Gandor over one third died in a span of a week during the battle. The outcome was an Eastern victory over the Old Regime, the occupation of Union City, the surrender of the Old Regime, and the exile of the corrupted Prime Minister Alexander Willamson. Over half the male population of New Gandor died over the forty four year conflict lasting from 1660-1704.
Post Civil war and the 1st Constitution
The Reconstruction of New Gandor seemed like an impossible task, but the newly freed peoples banded together. Reconstruction was not reintegration in a sense but more of rebuilding the country and re-founding the 3 core values. Reconstruction and Re-implementation took four years lasting from 1704-1708.
In 1708 the idea of a Constitution was set into motion. Two years of debate, bargaining, and compromise produced the 1st and current Constitution of New Gandor. In 1710 it was ratified and implemented to all the regions.
Soon after the economy started booming, the military became the backbone of the country, and faith in God was at an all time high and didnt look to slow down.
Government
Overview
New Gandor is a republic, but with a few minor differences. There is a republican component and a stratocratic component. In the republican part there is a unicameral legislature, a supreme court, and an executive branch. There is a system of checks and balances in place to ensure no one branch overtakes the other. Officials are elected on a term basis, save a few appointed positions. The stratocratic part comes into play by military involvement in each branch, excluding the Judaical branch. The military officials in each branch are there to advise, not limit, or oppress the processes of each branch.
The Legislature
New Gandor unlike other republics and democracies has a unicameral legislature called Kongres. Its is the job of the legislature to write up, edit, and vote on laws, confirm presidential appointments, declare war, and make a national budget. They also have the power to investigate the executive, and judicial branch within reasonable cause.
The stratocratic element comes into play with the Legislative Military Attache. It is their job to advise the legislature on current military actions and issues, as well as weigh in on declarations of war.
The Executive
Like most other democracies and republics the executive branch is headed by the President, the Presidents Cabinet, and the Vice President. It is the job of the executive to implement and enforce laws created by the legislature. The President has the ability to veto bills, appoint justices to the Supreme Court, and all other justices, as well as ambassadors to other countries. The President is also the leader of the New Gandorian Armed Forces, and is head ambassador. The President also has the power to pardon, and create treaties with other nations.
The stratocratic element is built into the executive with the presidents role as Commander in Chief, as well as the cabinet position of Sectary of War.
The Judiciary
The job of the Judiciary is to interpret laws, settle legal disputes, punish violators, hear civil cases, protect individual rights granted by the constitution, determine guilt or innocence in federal crimes, and interpret the constitution.
There is no stratocratic element in the Judiciary.
Geography
New Gandor is divided into 5 provinces. New Union (home of New Union City), Obfity (home of Iornbarron), Centralny, Nizinny, and Erie. New Union is hilly with some flat lands, with a portion of the Unia Mountians. Obfity has a small mountian chain as well as hills and flat lands. Centraly contains most of the Unia Mountians and some hills. Nizinny is hilly with some flat lands. Finally Erie holds the Zimana cliffs over looking ocean.
Economy
Military
Currently in the New Gandorian Armed Forces there are 900,000 service men and women. There are 3 branches consisting of army, navy, and air force. There is also a special forces branch called Rosomak. Approximately 20% of the New Gandorian budget goes towards the military, seen as a deterrent through strength and numbers to avoid conflict.
This is the break down of personnel.
- Active Personnel - 700,000
- National Guard (Ostatnia Milicja) - 190,000
- Rosomak - 10,000
The New Gandorian Navy is currently involved in the Armas Blockade led by Admiral Jackson Nowak.
