Mavran, officially the Fédération Mavranai (Anglish: Federation of Mavran), is a sovereign Federation of nations whose territory is in Central Argis on Eurth. The Federation only borders Velika to the East. The Federation is known for being the only Lysian nation on the Argic Continental Mainland, and one of two Lysian nations alongside Galahinda.
The Federation is currently made up of two member states and a Special Administrative Region:
- Mavris - Despite not being an official nation in the Federation, it functions as such in all but name. Governing the Federal Territories of Mavran from Mavris and with its own distinct Mavrois culture, the Special Administrative Region is treated as a Federal Republic despite it lacking the official status. In recent history, movements such as the Mavris Representation Society has made significant gains in securing support for the elevation of Mavris to the position of a Federal Republic.
- Illieux - The largest of the two nations.
- Farisia - The smaller of the two nations.
History
Federal Congress of Mavris
On 14 May 1925, the Mavranai Federation was formed, the result of the Federal Congress of Mavris. The congress, having lasted 6 months from 14 November 1924 to the Federal Declaration on 14 May 1925. From 1925-1927, the Federation would be led by a Provisional Government under Alexandre Fleur, in practice the first prime minister (1925-1937). During the congress, the 250 delegates (125 from both Illieux and Farisia) convened daily to craft the founding legislation and governing legislature of the Federation, resulting most notably in the Federal Mavranai Constitution of 1925, the Federal Charter of the Rights of the Citizen and the Initial Economic Doctrine of the Mavranai Federation. The Federal Congress, while supported by a significant majority in both nations, led to controversy amongst 'Sovereignist' groups, culminating in the Farisian Naval Mutiny of 1926, which sought to repeal the legislation of the Federal Congress of Mavris. The Order of Stability in 1926 banned Sovereignist parties, which mostly removed political pressure from the Federation's creation.
The Federal Mavranai Constitution of 1925 was widely lauded as Liberal and Progressive at the time of its writing. It re-iterated many terms of the Revolutionary Constitutions, such as the ban on Slavery and legalisation of Homosexuality, while also going further. It formalised a system of Proportional Representation in elections, expanded the ban on Slavery to a ban on the trade which led to the Federation taking a leading role in the region on fighting any trade of slaves, established formal public schooling, imposed some of the first worker's protections in the nations and went into great detail regarding minority rights closing many loopholes and laying the groundwork for Mavranai Multiculturalism.
Despite unofficially finished on the Federal Declaration, the Federal Congress of Mavris remained officially open until the first Federal elections in 1927. The 1927 election to this day remains the election with the highest percentage of voter turnout, at an astounding 84.72%.
20th Century
Fleur Mandate (1927-1937)
1927 - 1932
The election of 1927 was a big one. The first of it's kind in the new Federation, there were many logistical issues prior to the day, such as organising polling stations, informing citizens of how the system worked, and many other complex challenges. In the end, the election would be won by the Centre Bloc, under the leadership of, at the time, Provisional Prime Minister Alexandre Fleur. Centre rode the wave of popularity surrounding the 'Father of the Federation' as well as the widely popular centre-left ideas which the Bloc was comprised of at the time, to secure 327 seats. This was just one seat of short of a majority, and it led to the first ever coalition negotiations in the Federation's history. In the end, in order to represent a large majority of the populace, Centre would enter into a coalition with the centre-right Identité & Valeurs. This would prove widely popular, and would result in just under 90% of seats in the Federal Parliament being in the ruling coalition.
Fleur's 1927 Mandate saw vast strides in the Federalisation of the new nation, as well as improving the connectivity of member states. Under the 1927 Mandate, Fleur would create the military structure for the Federation, create a unified school cirriculum, as well as begin several Public Works Projects under the Comité des Travaux Sociétals which would link together much of the Federation's infrastructure, as well as begin some of the first Travaux Fédéraux, Federal Works for the purpose of helping to bring Illieux and Farisia closer together. In addition to this, the first Federal Territories were seperated from the Member Nations. The Federal Territories Act of 1929 organised the land which would later become the Greater Mavris-sur-Rozo Metropolitan Area or GMRMA. Notable Acts also include the Federal Transport Bill, which set the groundworks for unified Federal Laws on Transportation, and the Federal Health Service Act, which organised the first ever state Health Service in either member states.
During this time, the Federation would experience minor, albeit steady, economic growth, as while new connectivity allowed for industries to better cooperate and expand profits, new Federalisation initiatives also proved expensive, requiring expensive taxes which initially stifled Mavranai industry. Particular effects were felt in the steel industry, which struggled under the weight of high taxes and weak contracts, with Eastcoast Steel, Illieux's and the Federation's biggest steel manufacturer, nearly going bankrupt, being saved only by an influx of government Rozen and relaxation of taxes on the steel industry under the demand of Identité & Valeurs. While the economy struggled to grow however, the average standard of living greatly improved, particularly amongst the poorest regions, where new access to goods greatly lowered prices and allowed for a far better life for the working-class. This in turn led to a much bolstered class of workers, with the 1927 Mandate seeing some of the first worker's unions established in the member states, notably the Eastern Steelworkers Union and the Arbar Coalhole Union. These unions would later prove instrumental to the socialist movement in the region.
