The Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic (Vysokaya Rech': Transnapastanskaya Sovetskaya Sotsialisticheskaya Respublika), more commonly referred to as Transnapastain is a federal one party socialist state located in northern Omand in Annwynn. It is bordered to the south by unincorporated territory and to the east by Gratislavia, with which is also shares a maritime border. Transnapastain also shares a maritime border with the Republic of Licana via its occupation of the Otdalennyy Island to the west and Ostrov Island in the east, which is also claimed by the nation of Gratislavia. The government of Transnapastain does not, however, recognize the legitimacy of the Licanan claims and occupation of either island, nor Gratislavia's claim to sovereignty and considers each territory to be under their control. Further, following the Omand War, and Transnapastain's occupation of nearly the entire continent, it claims de jure control over all territory south to the Strada Crossing, a narrow land bridge connecting north and south Omand

History

Transnapastain was one of 6 founding members of the Order of Soviet Socialist Republics. The Treaty of Ozery was signed in 1849 and established the union between Transnapastain and the other five members of the former Transnapastaini Confederacy. Signatories included the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic, Ekspander Soviet Socialist Republic, the Malieńkisia Soviet Socialist Republic, the Gluposti People's Republic, and lastly, the Domwodzie People's Soviet Republic. The OSSR is, nominally, a union of multiple national republics but in practice its government and economy is highly centralized and utterly dominated by Transnapastain, governed by the Communist Party of Transnapastain, with Tayno as its capital in its largest republic, the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic. At its height in 1971, the OSSR consisted of over a dozen republics.

In 1936 Transnapastain invaded Gratislavia, incorporating it into the OSSR. Between 1939 and 1960, Transnapastaini forces invaded and occupied the entirety of northern Omand. Crossing the Strada Crossing in 1968, they initiated the invasion of Notreceau and southern Omand. By 1971, they had completed the conquest of Notreceau and, in 1972, Transnapastaini forces breached the Parete Nord and invaded Luminerra. In 1973, the Republic of Licana, agreed to assist Luminerra in its fight against Transnapastain, a fight it was steadily losing. The first Licanan forces arrived in 1973 and, by 1982, the Transnapastaini forces had been pushed back to Strada Crossing. Allied forces were able to force their way across in 1985 and continued the advanced towards the Transnapastaini homeland. The war ended in 1993 when Transnapastain imitated a strategic nuclear exchange with Licana, which responded in kind. The resulting devastation forced the Transnapastaini forces to retreat into the core territories of the OSSR, while the allied forces determined it would be costly, and ultimately unnecessary, to continue the advance into Transnapastain. No formal treaty was signed ending the war and thus, it continues in theory to this day. In fact, Transnapastain's ability to conduct operations had been severely limited, if not eliminated entirely, and thus the war was a victory for allied forces. Despite this victory, the war was extremely costly in both men and material, resulting in (a fuckton) of military casualties for the allied forces, an unknown amount for the Transnapastaini forces, though estimates place the number around (a whole lot). In addition, (an appalling amount) of civilian casualties occurred during the war, both during the Transnapastaini occupation of territories as well as through the nuclear exchange between it and Licana.

Government

While many local governance responsibility may fall to various ministries or councils within the Transnapastaini Soviet Socialist Republic, the overall governance of the nation is the responsibility of the governing body of the Order of Soviet Socialist Republics. Each signatory republic within the OSSR had its own governments formed by the republican legislature of the respective union republic. Republican governments were not legally subordinate to the government of the OSSR, but they were obliged in their activities to be guided by the decrees and decisions of the Soviet government.

The government of the OSSR is divided into the Order Council and the Supreme Soviet, the government of the OSSR is the highest executive, legislative and administrative body of the state and tasked with all state administrative duties in the jurisdiction of the OSSR. The government of the OSSR is responsible for

• Management of the national economy and socio-cultural construction and development including the formulation and submission of economic plans to the Supreme Soviet along with the state budget.
• Defense of the interests of state, socialist property, public order and to protect the rights of all citizens by;
  • Ensuring state security
  • General policies for the Soviet armed forces and determination of how many citizens will be required for service.
• General policies concerning foreign relations and trade, economic, scientific-technical and cultural cooperation of the OSSR with foreign countries as well as the power to confirm or denounce international treaties signed by the OSSR.
• Creation of necessary organisations within the government concerning economics, socio-cultural development and defense.

The government of the OSSR has the authority to issue decrees and resolutions and later verify their execution. All organisations within the constituent states are obliged to obey the decrees and resolutions issued by the government.

The Central Committee and the Order Committee, collectively known as the Politburo, are the executive body of the OSSR government. Members of the Politburo are appointed by the Premier and can be dismissed by the Premier at any time. According to the Articles of Unity, the Politburo is directed to assume ownership of all party and governmental activities. The Order Committee is comprised of representatives from various government entities include the military, security bureau, and all major industrial sectors. The Central Committee is made up of selected members of the Order Committee and are the actual voting members of the committee. It is possible, and common, for members of the Central Committee to also be sitting members of the Order Committee, however, it is not uncommon for a Central Committee member to appoint a deputy to sit in to Order Committee meetings in their stead.    

The chairmen of the Order Council, referred to as the Premier, is the leader of the Order Council. The Premier is nominated by the members of the Order Council and confirmed by the Supreme Soviet. In practice, the Premier is considered to be the combined head of state and head of government for the Order of the Soviet Socialist Republics.

The Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union, most often referred to as the Supreme Soviet, is the legislative body of the OSSR government.

International relations

Transnapastain was forced into isolation by the victory of the allied forces in the Omandan Continental War, which concluded with a strategic nuclear exchange between Licana and what remained of the Order of Soviet Socialist Republics with the strikes being centered around the territory belonging to the original five member states of the Order of Soviet Socialist Republics. This resulted in massive devastation to cities and infrastructure within the nation. Following the end of hostilities, the allied powers established positions on several islands to the east and west of Transnapastain in order to implement a total naval blockade of the nation with the intent of preventing any materials or communications from entering or exiting the nation. This forced the government of Transnapastain to discontinue diplomatic relations with a variety of nation's not directly involved in the war. Further, the Allied powers exerted political pressure against neutral nations to sever diplomatic ties with Transnapastain. In effect, this has rendered Transnapastain and the OSSR as an isolated realm in the modern era.

Today, Transnapastain has direct diplomatic relations with only the Greater Eastern Reich, located on the Ordian continent in western Annwynn. The Greater Eastern Reich formed an extensive partnership with Transnapastain during the Omandan Continental War and benefited greatly from economical, scientific and cultural exchanges between the two powers. Between 1930 and 1980, it is estimated that over a million people representing several different cultural backgrounds within the OSSR immigrated to the Greater Eastern Reich. In more recent years, some other nations have established consulates in Sudentor for the purpose of maintaining diplomatic contact with the OSSR. No nation, aside from the Greater Eastern Reich, has established an embassy within Transnapastain itself. The Greater Eastern Reich diplomatic mission is located within the city of Vani Vysoty after its former embassy in Tayno was destroyed.
