History
Granzerian Renaissance Society
The origins of the New Renaissance party exists in the organization known as the Granzerian Renaissance Society, an underground far right nationalist organization founded in opposition to the Granzerian communist government which had existed since the 1930s. The Renaissance Society was founded in 1968 by founding members Istvan Kende, Viktor Szombathy and Jóska Faragó in Győr-Ibrany. For ten years the Renaissance society remained a fairly small, underground formation which flew mostly under the radar from the Granzerian State security apparatus, such as the EÜI and AFT. By 1978 the Renaissance Society had grown to just over 2,000 signed members and in 1978 three GRS members detonated a fertilizer car bomb killing then Granzerian Head of State Premier Ármin Dunai. This began a crackdown on the organization with over 600 members arrested over the course of the next few weeks, including co-founder Jóska Faragó who was shot dead by EUI troopers in 1979.
The death of Faragó, and ongoing disputes regarding tactics between Kende and Szombathy, led to the dissolution of the GRS, with Kende going on to found the New Renaissance Society, a primarily political group, and Szombathy then founding the Granzerian Militant Nationalist Resistance Movement, or GRANEM for short, a paramilitary group designated a terror organization by the then Granzerian government.
New Renaissance Society
Despite the losses at the tail end of the 1970s, the New Renaissance Society enjoyed a surge of popularity and membership during a period of liberalism by the Granzerian communist government and in 1985, membership in the New Renaissance society reached an all time high of approximately 80,000 across 38 decentralized chapters despite government efforts to crack down on them. While the NRS built up its strength other more militant groups such as GRANEM and the Saxon Group continued to fight the government more directly. These decentralized chapters, all of which swearing loyalty to then Society Chief (Társaság Vezér) Istvan Kende, would otherwise have little to no contact with the New Renaissance Society at large, this made crackdowns on the underground society difficult, and when chapters would become compromised other chapters would not be threatened by their collapse.
Seizure of Power
The New Renaissance Society began its ascent to power following civil unrest in early 1987. Communist hardliners backed by the Urshchenyan government and security apparatus ousted liberal Premier Ágoston László to install a hardliner candidate as Premier. This effectively ended liberalization efforts in the country, despite the general popularity of László, this led to widespread civil unrest and rioting, which was ultimately violently repressed by the Granzerian and Urshchenyan state security apparatus and the Granzerian People's Liberation Army. Amongst this civil unrest far right groups such as GRANEM, the Saxon Group and New Renaissance Society goaded on protests and in some cases engaged in violent seditious actions such as sabotage, bombing, murder and kidnapping. Amongst the violence the Granzerian PLA began to disintegrate, with many soldiers joining protests or simply leaving the country, with many defecting to Eisenreich and the Federal Union of Arcadia.
The collapse of the GPLA and security forces otherwise occupied with restoring order, a coalition of far right and anticommunist groups led by the New Renaissance Society, using captured Granzerian arms as well as armaments supplied by the Eisenreich government, assaulted the capital of Gyor-Ibrany, seizing the capital and executing much of the cabinet and Granzerian United Worker's Party. Declaring themselves the legitimate government of Granzery, the country was almost immediately flooded with Eisenlander troops who quickly overwhelmed the limited and distracted security forces and what remained of the GPLA.
Consolidation of power
Following the coup, many of the more violent paramilitary groups, particularly GRANEM, broke relations with the new Granzerian government and the New Renaissance Society, now styled as the New Renaissance Party. GRANEM and various fascist street gangs began to roam the capital, assaulting and murdering suspected communists as well as ethnic minorities such as Stehkrainyans, Jews and non-white minorities, as the Granzerian government position at the time implied Stehkrainyans, Jews and non-whites to be inherently communistic and were seen as the instigators and supporters of communism in the country. These pogroms continued for weeks until the new central government, seeing the chaos erupting in the country as counter to their attempts to be seen as a legitimate and stable government, approached far right groups and offered them positions in government and military positions in exchange for government oversight and accountability for their actions.
This effectively gave the New Renaissance Party a cadre of fiercely loyal and violent enforcers to secure the country and ensure the continuation of the Party as the Granzerian state apparatus.
