History
Spiterianism was first developed by Lawrent Spiteri in 1922 as a response to the 1919 Sydalene constitution, which resulted in the expansion of the Senate to a bicameral legislature with the Chamber of Peers serving as the upper house, and the elected National Assembly as the lower house. Spiteri formed the {not!Fascist} Party as a monarchist party that originally espoused civil liberties, resulting in widespread support in the first legislative elections. Spiteri was joined by Karm Xuereb, who were key in gaining support among the nobility, and the Chamber of Peers for Spiterianism.
In 1924, the {not!Fascist Party} earned X of 200 seats in the National Assembly. By 1926, Karm Xuereb was appointed Chancellor by Queen Emmanuelle I, who began to endorse some Spiterian ideals. During this period, that the {not!Fascist Party} began to shed positions that pushed for more civil liberties, and became truly monarchist. Constitutional amendments were passed in 1930, and 1933, that saw powers once given to the National Assembly stripped in favor of more power to the Monarch and the appointed Chamber of Peers, effectively neutering Assembly.
