Holy Gishoto Empire

WIP

In 2193 Hulstria was rebuilt after 100 years of anarchy and chaos called the "Great Dark Period". The new Republic of Gishoto emerged with Gishoto being a compromise between the Hulstrians and Gao-Showa living within the newly stable country. This new government however would only last for a very short time as it was eventually renamed as the Holy Gishoto Empire, abolishing the title of "President" and re-establishing the Lutheran monarchy that ended a century before; this effort was lead by the Imperial Hulstrian Party and various other monarchist parties in the legislature. The movement was supported by the already pro-royalist Hulstrian population and was widely praised by international monarchist observers; Klaus Gustav III of the House of Rothingren-Traugott was crowned as the new Lutheran Emperor of Gishoto.

The installation of the Lutheran monarchy was made to much protest of the Shinto Gao-Showa and the various communist groups within the Empire; their failure to prevent the Lutheran monarchy being restored crushed their opposition and caused them to run to the underground, become outcasts once again in the mainstream of the new society. This was just for the time being however. Some Gao-Showans even refused to take part in the new government and refused to recognize Klaus Gustav III as the Head of State; this lead to verbal conflict between the cultures and the clash of preffered political ideology by the two cultures for centuries. Despite this, nationalism still swept across Gishoto and the economy began to finally prosper yet again, healing the wounds of the Great Dark Period; the first years of Klaus Gustav III were that of great prosperity and a re-emergence of a styled culture that was once just pure fantasy during the Great Dark Period. The emergence of the Holy Gishoto Empire also saw the re-birth of political parties within the country.

This situation remained for many years in the Holy Gishoto Empire until the 2240s when many of the old monarchist parties and traditional institutions of the state started to crumble. The collapse of various monarchist parties slimmed down dramatically supporters for the Monarch in the legislature and the communist parties who were once forced underground took advantage of such vancancies, systematically took control of the legislature who were supported by a large majority of the Gao-Showan people; the Imperial Hulstrian Party attempted to prevent a communist takeover but were overwhelmed as were most Hulstrians. Communist and radicalist republican parties also began to turn violent and attacked government institutions bringing disorder to parts of the nation; the frenzy eventually culminated in the revolution of 2245-48 lead by the militant Communist Party of Gishoto. The Monarchy remained intact during the majority of the upheaval and many times called for an end to violence. Such calls were ignored by the communists.

The revolution came to a bloody end in 2248 where Kaiser Klaus Gustav III was assassinated in Kien when a communist rebel launched an RPG at the Kaiser's automobile, killing him instantly; his death led the paralyzation of the Lutheran Monarchy and a mandate for the subsequent communist coup d'etat. Shortly thereafter armed militants of the Communist Party of Gishoto stormed the capital and seized it by force. The CPG took over the legislature and abolished the Lutheran-based Empire, the State Church of Lutheranism, and created the People's Socialist Republic of Gishoto, a new secular-communist state.
