War for Independence
In 1209, Vasili II of Bergum became the King of Maloria, much to the worry of the nobles within the Kalinia province. The Kalinian nobles, who were still bitter over the defeat of the Kalinian Rebellion in 11XX, were worried that King Vasili would levy heavier taxes on them and that Kalinian szlavic culture would be under threat of being dominated by Malorian culture even further. In their minds, the only way forward was to declare the independence of a new kingdom. While in search for a candidate for the crown of this new kingdom, the nobles turned to King Vasili II's twin brother, Prince Fyodor of Bergum, to become their new king. Whereas King Vasili II was a scholarly and philosophical man, Prince Fyodor was viewed as more knightly and courageous. In their minds, Prince Fyodor was the perfect candidate for the first king of this new state. After secret discussions between the Duke of Siloyev and Prince Fyodor, the Prince agreed to accept the kingship.

Politics & Government
Governance
According to the Constitution of 18XX, Arcanstotska is a federal presidential constitutional republic divided into three separate branches of government. Each branch is restricted by an enshrined system of checks and balances which prohibit any governmental office or branch from becoming powerful enough to threaten democratic authority.
- Legislative: the bicameral National Assembly made up of the Senate (which represents the nation's constituent states) and the Chamber of Representatives (which represents the people directly). The Senate is comprised of 14 seats (two for each constituency) and the Chamber of Representatives is comprised of 543 seats, with one seat equating to 100,000 people. The National Assembly has the responsibility to adopt federal law, declare war, approve of and propose treaties, and power of impeachment over the President.
- Executive: the President is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces and appoints members of the National Executive Cabinet (subject to approval from the National Assembly) who administer and enforce federal laws and policies.
- Judicial: the National Constitutional Court, the National Supreme Court, and lower federal courts, whose judges are appointed by the National Assembly with Presidential recommendation, have the responsibility of reviewing laws and overturning laws they deem unconstitutional.
The President of the Second Arcanstotskan Republic (POTSAR) is elected directly by the people via the popular vote for a maximum of two consecutive five-year terms, after which he/she will no longer be capable of serving any more terms in office.
Political Parties
The National Assembly operates on a multi-party system, and a political party must meet a membership requirement of 100,000 people in order to receive a seat in parliament.
Since the 1950's the leading political parties have been the liberal National Fraternity Party, the Social Democratic Party, and the Conservative Union of Arcanstotska. Other notable parties include the Syndicalist Front, the progressive Peace & Love Party, the National Green Party, the Union of Arcanstotskan Communists, and the right-wing populist Arcanstotska First League.
