Immediately after King Oliver II was crowned as the new King of Germany, a wave of public discontent swept the nation. The continued existence of a monarchy after a civil war that had been fought with the promise of ending the Kaiserreich was met with shock and anger by many. Despite the euphoria surrounding the coronation, the public reaction was a clear indication of the deep-seated divisions that still existed within the German people. The outrage was fueled by memories of the past conflict and a general sense of disillusionment with the political establishment. The discontent was a harsh reminder of the difficult task that lay ahead for the new king and his administration, as they worked to heal the wounds of the past and forge a more united nation.
In response to the public discontent, the Monarchy issued statements about reforming laws that stood in the way of democracy in the nation. However, these statements were met with skepticism, and it was widely seen as unlikely that the reforms would actually take place. This led to increasing pressure from the liberal and democratic factions in the German nation, who called for the deposition of the young king. Meanwhile, a small group of militias banded together in several towns to assert their dominance and demand freedom from monarchical rule. The situation was volatile, and it was feared that the nation could fracture into another civil war if the Monarchy did not compromise.
In Frankfurt, the situation took a dangerous turn when a group of anti-monarchical hooligans attempted to assassinate King Oliver II during a royal wedding ceremony for Princess Vanessa IV and Prince Wilhelm I. Fortunately, the assassination attempt was a failure, and the would-be assassins were swiftly arrested and dealt with appropriately. They now await their execution.
In the east, in Wilhelmshaven, the situation escalated even further as the people deposed the local municipality and established the Federal Republic of Germany. They elected a young man named Peter Steinbach, aged 26, as their first president. Although the situation in Wilhelmshaven was not yet seen as a major concern for the government, any misstep could have disastrous consequences, potentially escalating into a full-blown civil war. The delicate balance of power in Germany was a cause for concern, and all eyes were on the government as it navigated the complex and challenging political landscape.
Rules:
- Post if you wish to intervene or support either the Monarchy or the Federal Republic.
- This is currently a small-scale conflict, nothing big.
- No big conflict canons (sorry other fellow German nations, you can't be here)
- Absolutely no nukes right now.
