Vransvar was a nation that was being racked by political turmoil. The senate was dissolved many hundreds of years ago but unofficial political parties have existed for ages. Most were complete flops given a few weeks or even days. One though had held its grasp on the people for many years at this point. It was founded by a man proposing drastic change to the current government who went by the name of Vukan Karpov. Vukans party was known as the "Liberal-Monarchist Faction" and grew among the enlightened thinkers of the region. He proposed a new government take the place of the Confederacy that had in recent years failed to serve the people. A monarchy dived into two sections. The Lord of Vransvar and the Noble Counsel. He proposed that the Noble Counsel would work like the senate of old along with handling judicial issues. Proposing laws and handling legislative manners of government. Meanwhile the Lord of Vransvar would tend to the administrative and executive powers of the government. Along with all of these promises he claimed he would attempt to institute progressive reforms. He soon gained a following from the minorities within the nation that had long been under represented in the Vransvar government as a whole. This ranged from ethnic, sexual, and religious minorities. People on the left flocked to this speaker.
When news of this reached the Director of Vransvar he began to institute a crackdown on Liberal-Monarchist meetings and gatherings. The violence began to escalate and reached its peak when the author of "The Fiefdom of Vransvar", Vojmir Brodsky, was executed on live television to show what would occur to those hoping to change the nation. The Confederacy of old was dead and gone. The Director they had elected for a hope of a better life had betrayed the people in every way. Riots began to spring up. Police began to use lethal force in response. This only drove the Liberal-Monarchist Faction to push harder against the central government.
A flag began to be sighted at meetings and protests by this faction. A flag that used colors spoken of in ancient poetry of the people of Vransvar.
Orange for the flame that keeps them alive.
Grey for the ash it produces.
White for the snow that blankets the nation.
Soon people far from the capitol city of Vuhleslav who felt the most abandoned decided to take action. It started as quite whispers on the far east and coastal regions of the nation. A exchange of notes. Weeks of planning. When their plans came to fruition it started like a strike of lightening. Government buildings were sacked. Trains were stopped and looted to assist the cause. Police and military units became targets for pot shots in the open roads. Confederacy flags were torn down and replaced with the banners of the Liberal-Monarchist Faction. "The Fiefdom will live!" was spray painted on the corpse of the local governor. The coast and the eastern section of the nation were in complete and total rebellion. The Confederacy attempted to keep news from getting out about the conflict. By the time it did the conflict had already burst into a total war. The rebellion regions had unified and gave themselves a name and a flag based off of the men that lead them. The Fiefdom of Vransvar was formed with its capitol city of Bohovan. Their first Lord of Vransvar was elected by the Noble Counsel formed from the rebel leaders of the region. It was obvious who the first candidate would be. Vukan Karpov.
Vulkan did something that would help the war effort considerably. He made a simple announcement on international television. A plea for help. For assistance. Hoping someone out their would assist their effort.
Omelnitskiy Larion, The Director, would never give into something such as begging for help. If assistance came it came for him.
Now the nation was split. A war had begun. Lines would be drawn and people would die. It was obvious neither side would give up their war effort until the other side was completely destroyed.
