History

Prehistory

The territory of modern-day Ustat was inhabited by Europithecus afropensis since the Paleolithic Era. The proto-Ustatian tribes first appear in written history in the 9th century BCE. Archeological finds and references in ancient sources also reveal elements of early political and state formations characterized by advanced metallurgy and goldsmith techniques that date back to the 7th century BCE and beyond.

Antiquity

The Classical Period saw the rise to early of a number of the early Ustatian States, the principal which were Kyuz in the east and Uzaataz in the west. In ancient Kyuz mythology, Uzaataz underground was the location of the Golden River sought by Firat and the Vyzhivshiye v ruch'ye (Survivors of the Creek) in Magnar Kozlov's epic tale Zolotaya krov'. The incorporation of the Golden River into the myth may have derived from a lava tube found in Uzaataz. In the 4th century BCE, a kingdom of Kyuz – an early example of an advanced state organization under one king and an aristocratic hierarchy – was established.

From the first centuries A.D, the cult of Auras, Zitras beliefs, and Uzvaisinism were commonly practiced in Ustat. In the 4th century, King Ustin III declared Muntūs as the state religion, giving a great stimulus to the development of literature, arts, and ultimately playing a key role in the formation of the unified Ustatian nation, The acceptance led to the slow but sure decline of Uzvaisinism, which until the 5th century AD, appeared to have become something like a second established religion in Kyuz (eastern Ustat), and was widely practiced there.

Khachatryani Uzaataz

The extinction of the Uzaataz royal dynasties, such as Vinogradov's and the Mazurs, and also the Kyuz preoccupation with their rebellions and conflict within its hierarchy, led to the Khachatryani family's growth in prominence. The head of the Khachatryani dynasty Evgeniy I of Uzaatas (813–826), who had migrated to the former southwestern territories of Uzaataz, came to rule over Io-Alkuri and restored the Principate of Uzaatas in 813. The sons and grandsons of Evgeniy I established three separate branches, frequently struggling with each other and with neighboring rulers. The Popov line prevailed; in 865 Vlas IV of Uzaataz (888–923) restored the indigenous royal authority dormant since 580. Despite the revitalization of the Uzaatas monarchy, the remaining Ustatian lands were divided among rival authorities.

Kingdom of Turvuyz

An Uzvaisinism incursion into western Ustat led by Humphreys II was repelled by Yulian I (r.720–740) jointly with his Louizo and Uzaataz allies in 736. Yulian I then married Galya's daughter, and a successor, Yulian II exploited this dynastic union to acquire Louizo in the 770s. The successful defense against the Uzvasinists, and new territorial gains, gave the Turvuyz princes enough power to claim more lands from Uzvasinists. Towards 778, Yulian II (780–828) Was crowned as the king of Turvuyz. After obtaining independence for the state, the matter of the claims was the main problem. In the early 9th century a final conquest over the claimed lands broke out against the Kingdom of Turvuyz and the remnants of the Uzvaisinists. In 945 the war ended in the claimed lands became in control of the Kingdom of Tuvuyz. the Ustatian language replaced ancient Uzaataz as the language of literacy and culture. The most prosperous period of the Turvuyz kingdom was between 850 and 950. A bitter civil war and feudal revolts which began under Seriozhenka III (967–975) led the kingdom into complete anarchy under the unfortunate king Wassily III the Blind (975–978). A period of unrest ensued, which ended as Turvuyz and eastern Ustatian states were unified under a single Ustatian monarchy, ruled by King Pietrek III of Ustat (975–1014), due largely to the diplomacy and conquests of his energetic foster-father Valeri III (966–1001).

United Ustatian monarchy

The stage of feudalism's development and struggle against common invaders as much as a common belief of various Ustatian states had enormous importance for the spiritual and political unification of the Ustatian feudal monarchy under the Solovyov dynasty in the 12th century.

The Kingdom of Ustat reached its zenith in the 12th to early 13th centuries. This period during the reigns of Zibiah IV (1189–1225) and his granddaughter Luda (1284–1313) has been widely termed as Ustat's Golden Age or the Ustatian Renaissance. This early Ustatian renaissance, was characterized by impressive military victories, territorial expansion, and a cultural renaissance in architecture, literature, philosophy, and the sciences. The Golden age of Ustat left a legacy of great cathedrals, romantic poetry and literature, and the epic poem The Warrior under the Falcon's wing, the latter of which is considered a national epic.

Zibiah suppressed the dissent of feudal lords and centralized the power in his hands to effectively deal with foreign threats. In 1221, he decisively defeated much larger Oitrus armies during the Battle of Liligot and liberated Vyuz.

The 29-year reign of Luda, the first female ruler of Ustat, is considered the most successful in Ustatian history. Luda was given the title "Queen of kings". She succeeded in neutralizing opposition and embarked on an energetic foreign policy aided by the downfall of the rival powers of the Oitrus. Supported by a powerful military élite, Luda was able to build on the successes of her predecessors to consolidate an empire that dominated its region. until its collapse under Resistance movements and massive rebellions within two decades after Luda's death in 1313.

The revival of the Kingdom of Ustat was set back after Alker was captured and destroyed by the Oitrus leader Sobhi Wrenfrow in 1326. The Oitrus were expelled by Janalyn V of Ustat (1399–1402), son of Alik II of Ustat (1370–1389), who was named "Brilliant" for his role in restoring the country's previous strength and Mūntus culture. Janalyn V was the last great king of the unified Ustatian state. After his death, local rulers fought for their independence from central Ustatian rule, until the total disintegration of the Kingdom in the 15th century. Ustat was further weakened by several disastrous invasions by Murdad. Invasions continued, giving the kingdom no time for restoration, with Remnants of Murdad forces constantly raiding its southern provinces.

Divided Period

The Kingdom of Ustat into anarchy by 1466 and fragmented into Multiple duchies and kingdoms. Unrepresented or discriminated natives subsequently exploited the internal division of the weakened country, and beginning in the 16th century up to the late 18th century, Khorshed Dero and other native people seceded from the disintegrated state of the eastern and western regions of Ustat, respectively.

The rulers of regions that remained partly stable organized reconquests on various occasions. However, subsequent resistance from the other duchies further weakened local kingdoms and the region. As a result of incessant Wars and deportations, the population of Ustat dwindled to 784,700 inhabitants at the end of the 18th century. Eastern Ustat, composed of the regions of Vyuz and Ludz, had been under Adrik Vorobyov since 1555 following the Peace of Loikuztav signed with neighbouring rivalling Duchies. With the death of Abbott Tunk in 1747, both kingdoms broke free of Rivalling Duchy's control and were reunified through a personal union under the energetic king Xenik in 1755. Xenik, who had risen to prominence through the Vyuz ranks, was awarded the crown of Vyuz by Abbott himself in 1744 for his loyal service to him. Xenik nevertheless stabilized Eastern Ustat to a degree in the ensuing period and was able to guarantee its stability throughout the bloody period. Unification wars of 1756. On 12 September of 1756, King Xenik Vasilyev of Vyuz and Ludz with other duchies created "National coalition", King Xenik Vasilyev signed the proclamation of War against other duchies and kingdoms on December 22, 1756, On the Western side stood the West Ustatian Duchies (including Lembargyz and Wulkur), some central Ustatian duchies (including Polvadz), and Muntarcuaz in the east. On the side of Xenik was Duchy of Alker, most eastern Ustatian states, and some smaller central Ustatian states. Eventually, the better-armed Xenik troops and their allies won the crucial victory at the Battle of Xanveg under General Evgeniy Smirnov. The century-long struggle between Eastern and Western states for the dominance of Ustat was now over. Xenik had satisfied his desire for merging the once separate territories and gaining strong economic and strategic power, particularly from the full access to the resources of the Lembargyz.

In the summer of 1805, Xenik Vasilyev died due to tuberculosis and Valeriy Volkov took power from his father. Valeriy was a corrupt nobleman and ill experienced in running the nation. His inexperience and bureaucratic ineptitude cost the nation massively. With expensive famines and protests erupting across the nation. Valeriy was later assassinated in 1834 by a young revolutionary called Shurik Semyonov. Later years more corrupt and inexperienced rulers took the throne which would eventually leave the nation into chaos.

1922 Revolution and Years of Lead.

Reign of Eoin Ivanov proved fateful for the Ustatian Monarchy as Eoin was heavily unpopular by the common folk. Eoin introduced massive industrialization across the nation. With many workplaces propping up across the nation, replacing the agrarian economy with an industrial one. This was proven an unpopular decision as many of the factories didn't provide the necessary safety regulations and were crudely made resulting in many injuries and deaths in the factories.

On May 1, 1922, massive protests erupted in the nation with many people rising against the monarchy. General Evgeni Kozlov suppressed the protests which resulted in the Mayday Massacre.

This resulted in the 1922 revolution. As common folk rose against the monarchy and the nation erupted into chaos. As many people with massive ideological differences rose in an uneasy alliance against the monarchy. In 1925 multiple splinter groups erupted across the nation as the uneasy alliance was broken and each person took arms against each other. With the nation erupting into total anarchy as each group and individual vied for power only to be replaced by another.

In 1945 the situation stabilized as most of the separatists and revolutionaries were defeated and killed. Most of the civilians evacuated the fighting while Thousands were killed in the fighting. With only the Republic of Ustat, The Theocracy of Ustat and the National Liberation front remained in the chaos. Much of the nation was destroyed and 60,000 emigres and skilled workers leaving the nation amidst the chaos happening on their mainland.

In 1980 the fighting has ceased as The Theocracy of Ustat had won the civil war. The Ustatian economy was devastated by the war, with factories and bridges destroyed, cattle and raw materials pillaged, mines flooded and machines damaged. The droughts of 1990, as well as the 1993 famine, worsened the disaster still further. Disease had reached pandemic proportions, with 1,000,000 dying of typhus alone in 1980. Millions more also died of widespread starvation. By 1983 there were at least 3,000,000 street children in Ustat as a result of nearly ten years of devastation from the civil war

Ustatian Nationwide purge.

The Nationwide purge was a campaign of political repression in Ustat that occurred from 1989 to 2015. It involved large-scale repression of relatively suspicious individuals; ethnic cleansing operations against ethnic minorities; a purge of the Unitarian Party of Ustat, of government officials, and the National armed forces leadership; widespread police surveillance; suspicion of saboteurs; counter-revolutionaries; imprisonment; and arbitrary executions. Historians estimate the total number of deaths due to repression in 1989–2011 to be between 780,000 to 1 million.

The purges began in the National Armed Forces, and the techniques developed there were quickly adapted to purges in other sectors. Most public attention was focused on the purge of certain parts of the leadership of the Unitarian Party, as well as of government bureaucrats and leaders of the armed forces, most of whom were Party members. The campaigns also affected many other categories of society.

Hundreds of thousands of victims were accused of various political crimes (espionage, wrecking, sabotage, anti-Ustatian agitation, conspiracies to prepare uprisings and coups); they were quickly executed by shooting or sent to the labor camps. Many died at the penal labor camps of starvation, disease, exposure, and overwork. Other methods of dispatching victims were used on an experimental basis.

The Nationwide Purge began under NES chief Ira Morozov but reached its peak between September 1990 and August 1999 under the leadership of Henning Vorobyov. The campaigns were carried out according to the general line, often by direct orders of Sergey Lebedev

In the summer of 1999, Henning was relieved from his post as head of the NES and was eventually tried and executed. Leon Petrov, a fellow Ustatian and Sergey confidant, succeeded him as head of NES. On 17 November 2011 a joint decree of Unitary Congress of Alker and The pravitel (Ruler) (Decree about Arrests, Prosecutor Supervision and Course of Investigation) and the subsequent order of NES undersigned by Leon, canceled most of the NES orders of systematic repression and suspended implementation of death sentences. The decree signaled the end of massive Ustatian purges.
