History
The nation is made up from a contingent of a once existing nation, Voievodat Zeleniae, much more eastward. It is unknown why but Zelenia, as the people called it, collapsed and the remanants of the government migrated to Cresvlits, back then still a barren field. The capital is built on the springs of two rivers, now named "The Donslau" and "The Serafik".
The Donslau and The Serafik
The story goes as follows: There was once a waterbarrer within the migrating forces of the Voievodat. His name wasn't know even by the Voievode at that time, Petru the IVth, however he had two sons. The name of his two sons were Donslau and Serafik. On their way to the fields where Cresvlits now resides, the stopped in a village. The villagers, schemed and at night they attacked the resting column. The waterbarrer moved with his canister on his shoulder from wounded soldier to wounded soldier, saving lives. He saved many but not his sons. Donslau was first injured and asked for help from an enemy villager believing they were his father. The villager saw Donslau and ended his life. Serafik died trying to save the valuables that they had brought with them. He was unfortunately pierced by a arrow through his heart. After the battle, their father was told he had just lost his two sons, and with saddnes and pain he moved on. He would find his end, right in the middle of Cresvlits and when he fell down, his canister split in two, the two pieces becoming the springs of two rivers, them later being named "The Donslau" and "The Serafik".
Government
The Kingdom of Cresvlits is a semi-constitutional monarchy, ruled by a King, who comes to power either by succession (the successor being chosen), or by vote. He is the Head of the executive while also being the head of the legislative. The legislative is share between them and the Donslau Meeting.
The Donslau Meeting
The Donslau meeting existed during "The Voievodat" years, however it never saw wide use. With the Council removed, The Donslau meeting is the single one remaining who can exercise power. This eases bureaucracy while also help decentralize the government, hoping to democratize the socialist nation.
The Donslau meeting is made up of one representative from all provinces, those being Counts. How they come to power depends on province, some being republics and some monarchs.
The Cresvlits Crisis
On the 7st of January 2022, following the dissolution of the Prospit Entente, Cresvlits declared a period of "Splendid Isolation". Soon however, tragedy would struck. Joachim the Ist would be assassinated by an undisclosed assassin. This would trigger an entire Leadership Crisis, due to his heir refusing to lead the nation. The Crisis lasted for a day but had deep affects on the region and on how Cresvlits opperated, soon finding itself with a new Voievode Leuvis the Ist Kreiger.
All events were documented by an 4 hourly basis here.
The Battle of Cresvlits
Following the clash between the 2 sides, The Army of Cresvlits and The Socialist Army, the Socialist army collapses and is dispersed in the countryside, many being captured. The Leader of the Socialists, Reikard Yurinkov, is killed in the retreat. However the Army of Cresvlits suffers great casualties as well, the fields now being red and filled to the brim with bodies. The official tally rounds at about 20k deaths on both sides.
Effects
The Voievodat suffered a massive demographic hit from many refugees fleeing the nation avoiding the fighting, the refugees forming the nation of Constantzalae.
Politically, a type of shadow triumvirate was formed. The head was Leuvis with "The Absolute" and "The Fat Man" being seconds each experts in their fields.
Internationaly, Cresvlits changed it policy against socialism, now calling it a threat, different than Joachim who used to be cordial with the socialists. This also could be the after effects of a world wide revolution
of socialism, many nations becoming socialist from the results of violent takeovers.
The Ascension
Following the end of the Crisis and the stabilization of the nation, with many of its people having migrated southwards, Leuvis begins their integration. He sees an opportunity to finally implement the never used "Provincial system", but the Voievodat had to go. After all the green lights were lit, Leuvis the Ist, crowned himself as king of Cresvlits, the city of Cresvlits getting renamed to Donslau, the cities of Bistritza and Eforie Nord having been fully integrated in their own provinces, and East Mesa joining as well after some negociations. This also marked the split between the Egalitarians of Cresvlits and the rest of the socialist world, as they were warm to the Folksocialists in The U.C.C.R.. This split will see a mass loss in popularity of the socialists across all of the kingdom.
The Changes
As the changes weren't only ceremonial, the constitution was changed, removing The Council and empowering the "Donslau Meeting", adopted the Egalitarian Manifesto and finally adopted the Provincial system which splits the country in administrative regions, each ruled by a count.
