History

Independence

On the first of May 1846, British Parliamentarians sat down with the leaders of the colonies of Danvaut and Goobia. They drafted and signed a constitution into effect within the day and the two colonies were united under the name of Tomikals, meaning "Joining" or "Union" in Atoím. And by the 3rd, the constitution and separation from Great Britain were formally accepted into British Law. By October of that year, the Colonial Government of Tomikals was able to conduct the first election in the young nation's history. The Election of 1864 was between two major candidates, the Conservative candidate, James Johnson Sr. and the Liberal candidate, John Smith. This was before the Tomikalians began using a traditional party system with Members of Parliament, and the council was appointed by the heads of the parties based on representation in the popular vote. Johnson ended up winning the election and held power until 1872, where Allan Leierman defeated him. During Johnson's time in power, the Tomikalians fortified the electoral system and set the framework for how the country would, and for the most part has run to present day.

Civil War

After the death of the Queen Mother in 1905, the Tomikalian populace became highly dissatisfied with the rule of the British Monarchy over them. So, they decided to start riots, one riot started was in Bay of Namib which quickly captured the whole of the city. Other succesful riots include the riot at Tumby and the riot at Harwic, both of which were quickly squashed. The riot in Bay of Namib was succesful and supported by the Prime Minister, Jared Fourst who was a rebel sympathizer, eventually the King's soldiers were defeated and the Monarchy was overthrown in Tomikals. After the war, the new Rebel governnment installed their own monarchy with King Alexander I (a rebel general in the civil war) as its head. The war lasted from 1905 to 1912.

WWI

Following the end of the Civil War, hatred towards the British was at an all time high, and when the Archduke Franz Ferdinand I of Austria-Hungary was assassinated by the Black Hand (A Serbian mafia that hated the Austrians) the Tomikalians were all to eager to aide their German ally. So on the 3rd of August 1914, the United Kingdom of Tomikals declared war on the Russian Empire and on the Kingdom of Serbia. As history now remembers, Tomikals' efforts during the First World War were minimal because of the nations small size, and when Germnay surrendered on the 11th of November 1918, Tomikals soon followed suite and surrendered to the occupying British soldiers on the 17th of November in the same year. After the war, Jared Fourst, the Prime Minister at the time was able to hold off elections until 1920, when he lost in a landslide to Harry James.

The Great Depression

Following the Civil War in Tomikals, where the rebels emerged victorious, the nation found itself economically dependent on British markets. Consequently, during the Great Depression, Tomikals suffered significantly, with its currency, the Atom, plummeting by 150%. The agricultural sector, particularly in regions like Turnip County, Aubergine County, and industrial centers like Iron County in Western Goobia, bore the brunt of the economic downturn. Widespread unemployment and poverty plagued the nation, prompting government intervention to alleviate the crisis. Despite the hardships, Tomikals eventually rebounded, showcasing resilience in overcoming the challenges posed by the Great Depression.
