Ikaranarean Father States (Pacifica)

The Father States were the ruling governments of the regions Ikaranara and Pastrala from 1895 through 1955 at the end of the Great War. They were characterized by their oppressive regimes that propped up those at the top, juxtaposed with the freedom provided by the Triangular Empire. They were comprised of the Ikarnian Junta, Narussian Plutocracy, and the Ranarasi Industocracy. Keep in mind that these nations all framed themselves as Republics, and that these names are a later invention to explain what they truly were.

The States

The Coup

In 1880, the Triangular Empire had lost most of its territory as revolutions occurred across the Empire for decades. It had now been reduced to the three Sovereign States of Ikarn, Narus, and Ranaras, with their joint territory of Pastrala. The sentiment across the nations was one of sadness at seeing their power wiped away. Many in the country were upset with the slow rate of centralized industrialization occurring in their nation, and the economy in Indavra in general- including the newly independent provinces- had started to plummet. Some members of the Oderon Family, a family closely related to the Triangular Emperors, started to grow a disdain for how the government now managed itself. around this time period, several family members participated in planning 3 coups around the nation to establish control to "Save the Ikaranarean People." these coups were all enacted 15 years later, 1895, after heavy, decades-long negotiations with several militaries and high-ranking officials.

The Coup in Ikarn

The Ikarnian Castle was stormed by members of the Imperial Military and several militias stormed the building, demanding to seize the Emperor. The loyal Imperial Guard refused, shouting "Ahgna! Aghna!" (Traitors! Traitors!) after the Guard refused, a bloody armed battle ensued, and by some reports, the entire building was covered in blood. After 3 hours of combat, they reached the Emperor, whose wife and son had already fled. They hung their Emperor on the spot, and after news reached the public, the Militas declared the "Republic of Ikarn." After an 89.72% in favor vote, which was rigged, they swore in Stalro (President) Sayren Oderon.

The Coup in Narus

In Narus, the Emperor was killed in his sleep by 3 politicians. Having no suitable heir, the Imperial Council had full power of state, and declared the end of the Narussian Empire. After several hours of deliberation, they held a rigged vote, which returned a majority vote for Darren Oderon to become Stalro. The Council put an arrest warrant on the politicians for the murder of the former Emperor, but they were all pardoned in the Stalro's first act.
