The Kāichrén Democratic State (HCL: Kāichrén Minshu Kuni) was a historical Kāichrén Nation-State existing from 1929 to 1951 (or 1961), following the abolishing of the State of Kaesong. It was the state which would start the Great War, and would through such severely delegitimize the concept of democracy within the Kāichrén socio-political mindset, with its rapid fall into violent authoritarianism under even the more-benevolent leadership of Kurokawa Isao being seen as proof that such a system was not sustainable or broadly beneficial for the population. Despite this negative reputation in the modern era, the KDS also played a key role in the development of a number of cultural and political works in Kāichrén culture, with its preservation of Kigenist shrines and artistic-linguistic works being crucial to said faith's mild revival in the modern era.

The KDS as a state entity, would cease functioning in 1951 with the start of the Kāichrén Civil War, although it would only officially cease to exist with the Idaina Shūfuku Bunsho, which officially declared Neo-Korea the only true successor state to the KDS. It also abolished the Kakumei Dōmeitō as a political entity, meaning that the singular ruling party of the KDS was also abolished. Before the end of the KCW, a number of exile organizations abroad claimed successorship to the KDS as an entity.

Etymolgy

The circumstances cessation of Kaesong's existence would lead to the decision that the new name for the nation would need to be entirely seperate from such. Therefore, a number of names would be mooted - including the Pan-Hiakemirian Federation, the Democratic State of Hiakemiria, The Yanshen-Jungg'o Federation, and a number of others. All of these names would be rejected on a popular level - therefore leading to the decision that the state should fundamentally prioritize the Kāichrén in the naming of such as a form of appeasement to the population, a result of the general decrease in popular fervor for the democratic experiment as economic changes began to be enacted.

Economic Developments

Throughout the lifetime of the KDS, it would see the implementation of Sukoist economic policy - the consolidation of Iminchebol production into massively standardized lines for the purposes of mass production, the implementation of the earliest concepts of mass-consumption. These policies, based on those enacted by Suko himself, based themselves fundamentally on the cultural concept of the industrialization of humankind - that is to say that it fundamentally believed that social change could be enacted by "rationalization" of culturally and politically odious elements. It was this fundamental perspective that saw it eagerly adopted by military figures during the Great War, who believed it could be used to remove resistance to their policies by working class or minority populations, especially in the case of Ogata Katsu and his perspective on Jungg'o.

These policies would see natural dissent during the course of the war, especially by those few union structures which existed in the KDS - but ultimately they would be ignored or surpressed as the need of mobilization within the nation overturned any desire to attempt to care for or otherwise assist the population in withstanding the transformative societal effects such changes in production would have. Ultimately, they would provide the basis for the modern Neo-Korean economic structures of the state, with the majority of Iminchebol continuing to run along Sukoist lines until the 1995 Economic Reforms and the abolishing of currency such entailed.
