Bloodless Socialist Revolution in Bahiyyah (MT, Open)

[Bahiyyah]

The Kingdom of Bahiyyah has, since 1876, been ruled with absolute authority by the Al-Bakir family. As with all monarchies, there were periods of great prosperity, and periods of great disparity brought on by those with the divine right" to rule. However, it was not until the reign of the most recent king (Ibrahim IV) that whispers of bringing democracy to Bahiyyah began to float on the air. It was not, however, due to anything that the young Ibrahim has done but rather the deplorable rule of his father, Ibrahim III. Among the many crises that arose during his reign (1996-2015) was the scandal involving the Minister of Finance, Gamal Fawzi in 2015. It was discovered that the Minister had been embezzling massive amounts of tax money, starving various areas such as education, welfare, and other necessary areas of funding. When this was brought to the attention of the King by various watchdog organizations within the country, and numerous public petitions, his response was to denounce the accusations, even supporting Fawzi and declaring him a true Son of Bahiyyah. In response, mass protests broke out across the country, reaching 75,000 strong in the capital city of Dar as-Sakhr alone. While no fatalities occurred in the subsequent repression of the protests, hundreds were arrested by the Royal Police on charges of insurrection and dissent, but the calls for political freedom and democracy hardly died down. While the Fawzi Scandal revealed the crippling corruption taking hold of the government, the great disparity of the standard of living amongst citizens had always been in plain sight. In the final weeks of Ibrahim III's reign, the wealthiest 10% of the nation was earning 49% of the income of the country. The years of great disparity, coupled with the poor situation of the education and welfare systems caused socialist ideals to become rampantly popular, and easily the most vocal in the clamor for reform.

A scene from the mass protests in Dar as-Sakhr following the King's response to the Fawzi Scandal

Just three weeks after the scandal, Ibrahim III passed away, with his son Ibrahim IV taking the throne midst the rising political crisis of the nation. Ibrahim IV however, was widely known to be a populist leader, often-times engaging among the people and always advocating for them before the corrupt and aloof administration of his father. Within days of his succession, Ibrahim IV used his absolute power granted to him to dissolve the Monarchy, and abdicate his throne, releasing a brief statement on national TV and Radio:

When one stays too long in the clouds, they pay no mind to what happens back on the ground. For too long, the Monarchy has floated on their clouds, high above the people they are meant to care for, protect and lead. Instead, my family has thrown the people beneath them, and profited off their toil and sweat. It is now made abundantly clear, that the people will bear the monarchy's burden no longer. As the next King, I will do what is best for my people, and this means eliminating the Royal rule, and giving the country back to the people, with whom it will be treated most fair. Effective immediately, the Kingdom is no more, and the new Bahiyyah shall be a nation by the people, and for the people. I hereby establish the National People's Assembly as the representative legislative body of the nation, and I shall aid the organizations of free and fair elections, and take my leave of my position.

Following the King's abdication, massive cheering crowds engulfed the nation, millions gathered in peaceful celebration of achieving what seemed nigh impossible: a social democratic Bahiyyah. After several days, with enthusiastic support from Ibrahim IV, work began on the organization of the elections for the offices of President, and the 250 member National People's Assembly. After a difficult two months, the ballots were finally opened and the people flocked to voting stations to exercise their new rights. After all was accounted, the fledgling Socialist Progressive Party for a Free Bahiyyah (SPPFB) won a landslide victory in the NPA, with a staggering 211 seats. The rest consisted of the Ba'ath Party of Bahiyyah (24 seats), the Communist Party of Bahiyyah (12 seats), and the remainder being made up of independent candidates.

The office of President was awarded to Ismail al-Rangazi, the man considered by many to be the leader of the mass socialist movement against Ibrahim III, with a popular vote of 72%. al-Rangazi is expected to delivery his inaugural speech within a week.

True to his word, Ibrahim IV relinquished his claim and his throne following the elections, and retired to his home in the capitol, but not before turning over the former palace complex over for use as the legislative chambers and executive mansion.

Ibrahim IV and al-Rangazi share a friendly embrace outside the former palace
after the former ruler turned over the palace to the new government.

With the Bahiyyahn Awakening completed, and a new Socialist Republic proclaimed, there is still much left to do. A constitution awaits to be drafted, laws await legislation, a cabinet awaits appointment, and of course, there is a world out there that must be interacted with. How will it respond to the massive political machinations that have occurred in the nation of Bahiyyah?

OFFICIAL MESSAGE OF THE EMPIRE OF GREATE NIHON

"Mieyo to Shinko"

ATTN: The People's Republic of Bahiyyah.
SUBJECT: Socialist coup - condemnation.
ENCRYPTION: PUBLIC

---

Greetings with honour!

We are writing on behalf of Nihonese people, willing to express their utter anger and disgust to what had transpired in Bahiyyah. According to our observations as well as information delivered us by Tokkutai and Imperial Nihonese Diplomatic Service, a socialist coup took place in the nation; while they claimed they have re-instituted the democracy, it is pretty obvious that this is all a farce. His Majesty the King, Ibrahim IV, had betrayed his people by aligning himself with the very forces that wished to destroy the form of government that he was representing, while hordes of communists have left their homes to enforce mob rule, guided and directed by their leaders.

While the Nihonese government agrees that over centralisation of power and corruption are bad, and that King Ibrahim III was not the best leader Bahiyyah had, the fact that socialists took power there is at least worrying. Socialism, as we all know, is ruining nations and is generally considered a disease to mankind. Let us remember how big massacres had socialists, either communist or national socialists, carried in last century. Therefore, because of embracing a hostile, dangerous form of government, The Empire of Greater Nihon officially CONDEMNS the coup and declares the government of Bahiyyah to be ILLEGITIMATE. At this point, Nihonese government is considering putting sanctions which will include freezing of all banking assets in Nihonese banks and withdrawal of Nihonese capital and companies from Bahiyyah.

We also call all nations with honest mind to boycott Bahiyyan oil and buy it from our protectorate of Jaharnapura or from our allies from The Fascistic Republic of Riysa, a nationalist Arab state, which we believe will also be interested in that event because of Riysan interests in the middle east and Pan-Arabism.

[Bahiyyah]

From the Socialist Republic of Bahiyyah Encryption: Open Recipient: Maki Kojiro, Shogun of Greater Nihon Your blatant misinformation and unsubstantiated assumptions notwithstanding, the recent change in government and the subsequent elections are in fact actions of democracy, and are the decisions of the people. Your accusations of mob rule and communism are unfounded, and are debunked with even a passing glance of the nation. The condemnations of socialism based on sweeping generalization and misinformation is heavily disheartening, as one would expect one of such respectable power and position to be above such fallacious and erroneous thoughts. It is made abundantly clear in your statements that your reasons for condemnation are not because of genuine concern for the democratic process, or concern for the well being of our people, but are little more than short-sighted paranoia over your own agendas and ambitions, namely the oil market. The fact that this act of popular governance has been condemned and declared illegitimate by your government only serves to prove this further. Despite your assumptions, we have no aims to threaten your imperialistic ambitions, so long as they do not threaten the stability or security of the people of Bahiyyah. We are also more than willing to work alongside the Fascistic Republic of Riysa regardless of their ideology to better further the development of the Middle east and the Arab world.

ATTN: The People's Republic of Bahiyyah.
SUBJECT: Socialist coup - condemnation.
ENCRYPTION: PUBLIC

---

Greetings with honour!

Continuing our communication the Nihonese government has every reason to believe that the recent "revolution" in Bahiyyah was led, supported or guided by members of international communist conspiracy. The fact that Communist Party of Bahiyyah - a detestable institution of socialist terror - has gained 12 seats in parliament is at least worrying, but should not be surprising because of assumption of power by very similar socialist group. As stated many times, a movement does not has to call itself communist to be one - it has to fulfil ten planks of communism as written by Marx and Engels in communist manifesto. Those planks, such as - among others - creation of state owned central bank with exclusive monopoly or centralisation of credit in hands of state - are what key of communism is. The communist infiltration of socialist and faux-liberal movements has been proven a lot of times, and shout not be disregarded. We have - in conjunction with news that new republic was declared "People's Republic", a term that communist states use a lot - that the "democratic" socialist revolution was in fact masterminded and guided by communists seeking to undermine and conquer Bahiyyah.

Furthermore, the Nihonese government believes that socialism is a crime against humanity because it opposes one of fundamental rights that Almighty gave human individual; right to private property. Socialism claims that it must be abolished; therefore it strips individuals of it's belongings. While the Nihonese government does not believes that there is a single universal economic policy, we claim that free - market system is only system that respects human dignity. Of course such system can degenerate if not controlled properly, and is far from perfect; however, socialism is much worse. We believe that Almighty Father when he created the world gave each individual natural born rights; and one of those rights is a right to private property. Socialism strips him of this right, and enforces high taxes - which are nothing more than state - sponsored theft - on the people, making them more poor in process. That is why Nihonese government believes that socialism is a planned economic war against the people of Bahiyyah.

Dai Nihon Teikkoku has no plans of launching armed intervention in that region; nor has it plans of calling on our allies from Santiago Anti-Communist Treaty Organisation which we are among leadership of to launch an armed intervention to topple the new regime; however, we believe that socialism may very soon show it's real face and the corruption, theft of private property, rape an murder will begin again. This new "People's Republic" will be carefully monitored to prevent spread of socialism in the region; should the Bahiyyan government touch any of it's neighbours or pose a threat for international or maritime security of Nihon and it's allies, there will be swift and brutal response, with no mercy shown to socialist criminals.

The Supreme Court of The Dominion of Mavenheim formally condemns all threats of force and force against The People's Republic of Bahiyyah. While there will be problems that arise in the early days of The People's Republic; the best response is to let Bahiyyah work through its problems on its own while we, the international community, continue to peacefully trade and coexist with Bahiyyah.

The Supreme Court reserves the right to enforce this Opinion at a later date should we find that Bahiyyah sovereignty is not being respected. This enforcement may include sanctions on the offending parties or military support to The People's Republic of Bahiyyah.

To: Bahiyyah
Subject: Your Glorious Revolution
Encryption Level: Private

The People's Republic of Cedoria would like to express our congratulations for the successful non-violent socialist revolution that has occurred in Bahiyyah. We have rarely seen such a complete demonstration by the masses in demonstration of a popular socialist cause as has occurred here. We are particularly happy that such transition can occur peacefully in your nation and that the task of building and consolidating the Socialist revolution for the betterment of the people can begin immediately.

However, it grieves us to know that certain Imperialist States, such as the racist, Neo-Nazi forces of the so-called Empire of Nihondai are already seeking to deny the legitimacy of your peaceful transition by using coercive and repressive means. Such Imperialist actions are to be expected from states of their ilk.

It should be noted that they are already imposing trade sanctions and other freezes on your assests, demonstrating their complete hypocrisy in their supposed defence of property. The People's Republic of Cedoria is willing to step in to aid the new Bahiyyahn socialist government recoup it's losses from these sanctions and implement the full construction of Socialism. We are willing to offer a trade deal involving favourable prices on Bahiyyahn exports, particularly oil, if they are sold to the People's Republic of Cedoria. We also offer friendly prices on a wide array of Cedorian exports, including iron ore, agricultural products, green technologies, and timber. We are also willing to offer a favourable trade terms for the purchasing of Cedorian conventional weapons and military vehicles, at below normal prices given he threat Bahiyyah now faces from the imperialists determined to overturn your successes and further the continued repression of the people.

We are willing to offer favourable trade deals both as a gesture of goodwill, and to help fill the gap caused by the Imperialists coercion. We immediately recognise your new government as the legitimate representative of a sovereign people,and warn the Imperialists not to intervene to further their repressive goals. The people of Bahiyyah have spoken, and any attempt to say otherwise is trying to distort the situation with meaningless propaganda to further their own ends.

*** Nihonese embassy, Bahiyyah

Inside the dark room, only a single light was shining. Nihonese embassy was not evacuated following the revolution, and it was kept here for now. But everybody should know that wherever Nihonese embassy was, there was Nihonese intelligence also. Inside this room were sitting two men; one of them, colonel Kanno Shinsaku was representative of Section 9 of General Headquarters. Second one was a woman, also from the intelligence; she was Funai Aoki from Tokkutai, the Naval Intelligence. Both of them were sitting in here. While Section 2 of General Headquarters would operate here also, their representative was now re-called to Nihon. However, their orders, received on far encrypted network, were clear; they had to begin information warfare campaign against Bahiyyah. Nihonese were not interesting in fighting another war, even with size of their military; their major goal was to ensure that those socialists would be gone very soon.

"Aoki-San" spoke general Shinsaku, smiling "I received positive authorisation. We have to begin planting our agents in Bahiyyah and Section 9 given us unlimited funds for buying politicians and other needed... actions."

"Positive Shinsaku-san" smiled Aoki. This woman might have been looking not important, but everybody knew how clever she was "I believe we have to begin searching in the military for suitable agents of influence, Shinsaku-san. We should be well aware that the king probably kept the military loyal to himself; and that many of it's generals will probably dream of power. This can be exploited."

"While Tokkutai searches for people in the military" smiled colonel Kanno "Section nine will use our agents, disguised as Nihonese businessmen, to search in local upper class. I believe they do not want to loose their factories and property to those thieves, and will willingly finance a regime - change operation, especially if promised less regulations."

"Affirmative" Operation Vulture is on. I will inform our residential agents in this country. Meanwhile contact your men in media. They have to smear this government's reputation as much as you can. Show them the dirty truth about this socialists.

And with that, they saluted to each other and left.

---

The agents will soon come, disguised as tourists, or using fake identities, claiming that they are here on a trip. Most of them were not even ethnic Nihonese, and many will claim that they are socialists. Some will pose as reporters, having perfect papers of many broadcasting companies where Nihonese intelligence placed their agents before.

Operation Condor was on. And nothing could have stopped it.

WE ARE ECSTATIC! To hear about the overthrow of a country, and super excited to see the adoption of not only democracy but also the fact that your country's people have been swept up in the wonderful ideals of Socialism! While we ourselves are a capitalist country, we can appreciate the benefits of a socialist economy. While in the past Jewish states and Islamic states have held their differences, we hope to start a new. We dream of a middle-east where Jewish and Muslim nations live in harmony, promoting trade and peace. We believe that we can start this here. For that reason I would like to extend a trade offer. The donation of a 5bn anon stimulus package, our advancements in micro nuclear fission, we would like to lend you our corp of engineers to help build schools, hospitals, nuclear (or alternative and clean) power plants, and even help build some military installations such as the naval and orbital defense plat forms utilized through out the entirety of the Federal Kaiserreich of Dei Gentem. We would also like to offer the citizens of your nation free dual citizenship with our country, and provide free transport between the two of us. Proud of our naval fleet we would also like to offer you the use of a few of our blockade runners in light of some of the recent embargos on your nation. The runners are DGS-SC Rhino Class submersible cruisers, named after the rhino for it's stunning speed and defense capabilities, and is powered by nuclear fission.

None the less, thank you kindly for listening, and I hope that our friendship and alliance will prosper.
