History

Early years (1909-24)

The origins of the HKP can be traced back to the Hytekojuznik Workers' Association, of which HKP founding member and leader Artjoms Viliks was a part of. The association acted mainly as an underground anti-monarchy one, and many of its members had previously been subject to exile for treasonous activities against the king, at the time Johannes II, with Viliks evading exile multiple times. In 1910, amidst widespread political strafe and turmoil caused by the inability of the king to rule effectively after the great loss in the First Great War, the party began openly calling for the abdication of the king and an end to the monarchy of the country, with a centralised republic taking its place. This time, Viliks, as well as HWA companion and future Chairman of the Communist Party of Hytekojuznia and de facto leader of the country, Roms Talbergs, were both arrested for two years. The HWA had been forced back underground by Hytekojuznik monarchical authorities but the thought and ideology of Viliks, known as Vilikism after 1911, had already been implanted in Hytekojuznik society, with protests and revolts against the rule of the king popping up throughout the country.

When Viliks and Talbergs were released in the November of 1912, work began on a country-wide workers' and socialist revolution, with Viliks again condemning the actions of the monarchy and advocating for the establishment of a socialist republic in its place. With Viliks now advocating for revolution and campaigning in many cities for people to join the revolution, mainly centred in his hometown of Krasno, the threat of one such revolution began rapidly increasing.
