Majatran Union

The Majatran Union (3190-) is an economic, military, and political alliance among the nations of Barmenia, Jelbania, and [[Vanuku. The three nation alliance shares a common currency, a group defense, and a super government legislature and Head of State.

Founding
The MU was discovered by Jelbanian President Samuel Adams, which was immediately approved by Barmenia. The two nations were partners in the Jakanian Civil War. Although the war ended in a political defeat for the two Republican nations, the military coordination and goodwill between the two peoples advanced the Majatran Union.

In 3190, Barmenia approved the Majatran Union treaty which was written by the Jelbanian Samuel Adams administration. Jelbanian Federalists signed the treaty four years later in 3194 after successfully defeating their Democratic Republican opposition. The two nations then planned to create a three nation regional union with Vanuku. With Vanuku's participation, Barmenia and Jelbania would be able to connect to each other by land.

However, diplomatic efforts to persuade Vanuku's Social Liberal Party government failed after repeated attempts. The Jelbanian Federalists then struck a deal with the Democratic Republican opposition to infiltrate Vanuku and gain seats in their legislature. In 3201, Democratic Republicans obtained 11% of the seats in the Vanuku legislature serving a political blow the MU.

Barmenia and Jelbania then encouraged the Democratic Republicans to take up arms and launch a coup on Vanuku. Barmenian and Jelbanian armies surprised Vanuku forces and quickly sacked the capital with minimal loss of life. The Social Liberal Party was exiled leaving the Democratic Republicans in charge in 3203. Democratic Republican Jay Madison became active Head of State for Vanuku and then won the National Chairmanship in his own right in the summer of 3203. The treaty to bring Vanuku into the MU is expected to pass in the winter of 3204.

3190-3204
Barmenian and Jelbanian forces equal 1,365,985 in active forces. The Commander in Chief of the MU is Allied Commander, a position that rotates between all nations in the MU every two years. All MU military war declarations require majority approval of the MU legislature. Jelbania and Barmenia have access to each others army bases, airfields, and navy ports. This proved advantageous for Jelbania giving them access to the Majatran West Ocean. Barmenia gained access to Lake Majatra for the first time.

3204-Present
With the inclusion of Vanuku, the MU forces equal 2,052,006 in active forces. The MU is currently taking advantage of Vanuku's coasts.
