The Messidor Union (Aulic: Union de Messidor; Tamaziɣt: Ljamaʕa n Mgrawi, ⵍⵊⴰⵎⴰⵄⴰ ⵏ ⵎⴳⵔⴰⵡⵉ), occasionally called the Harvest Union, is a federation between the Republic of Merovia, located in south-central Belisaria, and the Confederation of Aɣmatia, located in northern Scipia. Merovia shares borders with Garza and Latium to the west, Lyncanestria to the north, and a maritime border with Lihnidos to the east. Aɣmatia shares borders with Talakh and Yisrael to the west and Charnea to the south. Both constituent republics border the Periclean Sea.
The union is a syndicalist federation. Local unions form small-scale administrations and have broad powers. At the upper level, a single congress made up of proportionate members of each union legislates federal powers. Aɣmatia has historically been the homeland of various Amaziɣ peoples and societies, though since the high middle ages Aulian people have dominated both politically and culturally. As such, both Aulic and Tamaziɣt are commonly spoken languages, the latter seeing a resurgence after the confederation gained its independence in 1816. In Merovia, Aulic is the sole dominant language. Both Aulic and Tamaziɣt have equal status on both sides of the Periclean and bilingualism is prevalent.
A developed nation, while ostensibly a market system the economy is highly regulated in an unofficial manner. While there are few official requirements mandated by the Workers' Congress, individual unions enforce industry standards. Social services are also provided by local and federal governments with the majority falling to local administrations. As such, access to services is not always consistent across districts. Major exports include bread, tea, grapes, and other agricultural products, petroleum products, pharmaceuticals, and post-industrial products.
History
History of Aɣmatia
The region of northern Scipia which encompasses present-day Aɣmatia has been permanently occupied since at least the sixth millennium BCE. Amaziɣ tribes formed the earliest societies several of which coalesced into city-states after the Asani Empire toppled in the first millennium BCE. These states were reintegrated in the successive Barbanian and Marad civilizations into the Common Era Before the rise of the Azdarin.

The Confederation of Aɣmatia had a tumultuous early history. The tradition Amaziɣ tribes and clans divided along religious and cultural lines in the Aɣmatian Clans War (1817-1820) which resulted in a democratic legislature composed of clan chiefs. A decade later, popular agitation for worker's rights and universal suffrage led to another civil war. The workers' movement coordinated internationally with a parallel movement in Merovia. On June 6, 1830 the Merovian duke was deposed and a republican government was installed. Six days later, with the threat of support from Merovian republicans, the clan chiefs of the Confederation of Aɣmatia acceded to the demands of the workers and began the process of radically altering the clan structure. On June 20, 1831 the Messidor Union was publically proclaimed in both Merovia and Aɣmatia, joining the two nations into a worker-dominated federation.
History of Merovia
The oldest evidence of permanent settlement in present-day Merovia dates back to the sixth millenium BCE. Throughout the first millenium BCE, various settlements were formed from eastern migrants, Lihnidosi colonists, and Aradian settlers. Various tribes and chiefdoms formed in this time, warring with each other and other cultures and kingdoms, and occasionally forming temporary confederations which spanned most of the area of modern Merovia.
In 203 BCE, the Latin Empire began its annexation of the Aulian lands to its east. Many tribes and clans were conquered by the empire before 199 BCE when the vast majority of tribes formed a confederation under High King Merovectorix. Merovectorix's confederation held out against the Latins for seventeen years before finally succumbing to the legions. In honour of warrior-king, the Latins named the newly founded province "Merovia". The Latin province of Merovia remained a part of the empire for over one thousand years. Though uprisings were common at first, the Latin dominance became the norm and even the Aulic language became mixed with that of the Latins to form the precursors to modern Aulic. Tribal chiefs and kings became Latinized and clans became noble houses. Through this process many native Merovians found local power once more, but always remained subjugated to the Latins.
On the 17th of November, 1068 the Fabrian Catholic Pope crowned Robert the Great as Holy Aulian Emperor, threatening Latin imperial authority. In Merovia, Saint Aliénor de Grissons led a revolt against the Latins from 1061 to 1070, first galvanizing support among peasants and serfs, but eventually gaining support from local counts and magistrates. The Latin hold on the province was finally broken at the Siege of Vallionum which also claimed the life of Saint Aliénor. With independence won, but no clear rightful leader among the Merovian counts, the nobles pledged themselves to Robert the Great and the new empire. The central part of the empire continued to be known as Merovia, and was made up of the counties of Saint-Nazaire, Franciscque, Couronne, Moïeux, Aix-des-Vaux, and Grissons.
...Empire stuff...
Tensions between Protestants and Catholics in the empire continued to rise over the 17th century after the Belisarian Wars of Religion and attempted conciliations. The War of Tourrainian Succession exacerbated tensions between Protestant strongholds in the west and Catholics in the east. The conservative House Niort-Parthenay of Saint-Nazaire in particular railed against the Protestants, especially after consolidating County of Couronne in 1666 and then being elevated to Duke of Merovia in 1700. Louis VI Niort-Parthenay precipitated the fall of the Holy Aulian Empire over his 42 year tenure as emperor. By the time of his death in 1748, non-Catholics faced extreme discrimination. Attempts by his successors to ease religious tensions, including the conversion of Emperor Stephen from Catholic to Protestant, were insufficient. When Count Joseph "the Fervent" of House Grissons was elected emperor near the turn of the century, Lyncanestria was in open revolt. On January 1st, 1816 the Holy Aulian Empire collapsed after the Duke of Merovia attempted to seize power and invade Lyncanestria: while Joseph was successfully deposed, the Pope would not crown another emperor.
After failing to usurp the imperial throne the Duke of Merovia, Louise XIV, became increasingly unpopular at home. In late 1829, the imposition of a harvest season tax drove many of the common folk over the brink. Tenant farmers who were being exploited despite the abolition of serfdom, the urban poor, and former soldiers of the imperial army all marched togather against the duke who had holed up in his palace in Saint-Nazaire while his retainers gathered support and met the commoner army in battle. In order to sustain the revolt, university elites and guild reformers galvanized the commoners into a revolutionary army, drawing comparisons with the plight of workers in Aɣmatia at the same time. By mid-1830, the duke's forces had been crushed and he was executed on June 5th. On June 6th, the Republic of Merovia was proclaimed by the leaders of the revolution. A year and two weeks later, the republic united with Aɣmatia to form the Messidor Union.
