Volksdundorfische Cultural Association

The Volksdundorfische Cultural Association (Dundorfian: Volksdundorfische Kulturverein), sometimes initialed as VDKV, is the international organization dedicating to keeping contact with and organizing the Volksdundorfische throughout the world. The VDKV is primarily focused on mobilizing and keeping contact with the Volksdundorfische, they maintain the Auslanddundorfischeamt (Luthoran: Foreign Dundorfian Office) which works with those Auslanddundorfische who want to maintain a relationship with their native country. The VDKV is responsible for organizing efforts throughout the world, primarily Artania, to finance and inform Volksdundorfische of information about Dundorf, keep them up to date about their politics and create a strong cultural bond between these groups. The VDKV is responsible for organization the Selbstschutzverband, where they have their primary influence as an organization. The translation into Luthoran gives these units a much more militaristic sense, at one point in history they once were but eventually they formed into the modern political action groups that they are today. It should be noted that most selbstschutzverband do maintain a military wing with military style ranks, this usually however, is more for former military officers who wish to maintain their sense of hierarchy and organization.

The VDKV operates at what they call the "Reich" level despite the nonexistence of the Dundorfian Reich. In 1901, almost a century after the foundation of the first selbstschutzverband the various groups met at the Selbstschutz Große Ausschuss (Luthoran: Self protection grand committee). This meeting was designed to formally organize the Selbstschutz, this is where the VKDV was formed as the "Reich" level organization. The meeting also saw the adoption of the current rank structure for both political and military officers, it also grounded its organization at all levels. The 1901 meeting was a watershed moment for all self protection units and gave them unparalleled access to resources within Dundorf. The 1901 meeting would also see its organizational structure used several dozen times by various nationalist and far-right political parties. The model for organization and hierarchy would come to be revered, especially in political organizations that revered a strong, central figure which the hierarchy, despite its it lack of a central "head" could use it to his advantage.

Organization
The Volksdundorfische Cultural Association works on X levels. The first being the "Reich" level, which is synonymous with the former Dundorfian Reich (traditionally called the Dundorfian Empire). The Reich level is the largest area and roughly corresponds with the former lands of the Dundorfian Reich. At the Reich level all important decisions are made by the Selbstschutz Große Ausschuss (Luthoran: Self protection grand committee), this body is responsible for promotions to the Reich level as well as holding the annual general meeting of the VDKV where important decisions that impact the entire organization are made. For the most part the Reichsleitung (Luthoran: Reich Leadership) makes decisions in their weekly meetings and often the annual general meeting rubber stamps their decisions though times the general meeting has opposed decisions of the Reichsleitung.

Below the Reich level is the Gau level, the Gau level equates to leadership of each of a national governments regions. This was done as each of the regions corresponds to a former provinces of the Dundorfian Reich. Below the Gau level is the Kreis level which is roughly equivalent to a district or county in most countries and finally the Ort level which roughly equates to individual city or village leadership.
