The Voltan Democratic Republic was a nation that existed from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century. It governed over present-day Volta and was located in Aurelia. Though it started as a democracy, it became a dictatorship after the 1876 Voltan coup d'état in which it's first President Eugen Rathenau, assumed absolute power.
