Government and Politics

Government

The Tromark-Lorraine Situation is an ongoing territorial dispute between Nonadia and Laurentiea, with the dispute occurring on the Island of Tromark/Lorraine, with the name of Tromark being assigned by Nonadian and Neuerstaater authorities and the name of Lorraine being the native name given by Laurentiean locals. Currently, the island is split in control between Nonadian forces and Neuerstaater forces, with Nonadian forces controlling the western portion of the island and Neuerstaater forces administering the eastern portion of the island, centered around the major city of Laurentville (Also known as Fredericksburg). The dispute stems from Nonadian claims to the island citing past evidence of Nonadian settlement on the island prior to it entering the control of the Pre war Laurentiean government.

Neuerstaat has found itself involved in the dispute due to the presence of it's troops within the eastern portion of Tromark/Lorraine, with the local Lorraine authority being under the control of the Neuerstaater occupational government, much controversy has thus resulted from this. Though not acting as an annexing force such as Nonadia with their portion, Neuerstaater forces have enforced a temporary government on the eastern portion of the island, which has acted as the official authority administering the portion since the conclusion of the Laurentiean Civil War, outraged Laurentiean influencers, officials and activists have decried the occupation as "a blatant move of imperialism disguised as peacekeeping".

The occupation of the eastern portion began in the midst of the Laurentiean civil war with the execution of Operation Messe by Neuerstaater Armed Forces,
