The First Tribunal Republic of Buscemistan

Buscemistan is an island nation in the Turangon Belt region of PEEL, off the Western coast of the Imperial States of Slimmy.

Introduction

Buscemistan is a nation in transition. Following the Senate elections of July 2053, the Buscemistani Conservative Party was fractured, suffering many defeats and losing its majority stake in the national legislature for the first time in history. A sea change was taking place in Buscemistani politics. Jaded by the conservative (by Buscemistani standards) dogma that had led to the party's steady decline, many BC's banded together with Bucemistan's minority parties and demanded a democratically elected head of state. On August 23rd, 2053, the Senate approved an amendment by a margin of 337-163 that effectively ended the era of Buscemistan as a Sultanate.

Buscemistani History

Buscemistan is unique among the nations of PEEL, as the two largest ethnic groups in the country (Buscemistanis and Stone Bearites) are not native to the land.

Pre-Buscemistani History

The ancestors of modern Buscemistan were inhabitants of the Morbian Coast and islands to the west, in what is now part of the Slimmonian Empire. The Buscemi peoples existed for a many centuries as separate nation-states, though each would trace their lineage to the Legend of Buscemi, a diminuitive man who led his starving people from parts unknown to prosperity on the Morbian Coast. These states were those of the Seymours, the Enidians, the Crispins, the Lucians, and the Andrians. In 1787 the separate states rallied together under the leadership of Sultan Stephen IX of Seymour in order to successfully repel the first of the Slimmonian invasions. In the wake of this victory Stephen of Seymour took advantage of his increased popularity and clear military superiority, seizing power in the eastern states of Andris and Crispin, with the aid of popular uprisings in those regions. Not long after, the governing bodies of Enid and Lucia would peaceably resign themselves to Seymour rule, and in 1791 Sultan Stephen IX of Seymour became Grand Sultan Stephen I of Buscemistan.
