The Skoric Daugrech(Skoran: Skoric Daugrech), officially the Skoric Peoples Socialist State(SPSS), is nation that spans much of the northern Ariethnian continent. It has a population in excess of 120 million, making it the fifth most populous nation in the world. It is a traditionally federal socialist union(FSU) comprised of 22 regions of limited autonomy. With an area of 2.2 million square kilometers, the Skoric Daugrech is also the fourth-largest country by total land area. It's most populous city, Suric, is also its largest financial center, located in the Skuraggard SAS. At the time of its proclamation, the Skoric Daugrech was the first true constitutionally socialist country.

The seeds that were sown for its creation, can trace all the way back to 1778. The former Askorian Empire, which the Skoric Daugrech is a successor of, was a union of 58 holy kingdoms. It was the first true unified Skoric state, however it would fall into decline from the 19'th century to early 20'th century. Civil unrest due to economic and political woes eroded the ability of the state to properly function. The violent and often bloody dismantling of peaceful protests and demonstrations would further ignite the populace. Eventually, this unrest would culminate into the Skoric Civil War, a war that lasted a little over seven years. From 1904-1911, the Skoric Socialist Front would lead the fight against the monarchy, eventually succeeding and establishing control over much of the former empire. The creation of the Skoric Daugrech was markedly brutal and bloody, it was in its truest form a display of the Skoric people's innate nature for change, and the lengths they go for it. The period post-civil war saw great suffering and economic strife. Those associated with the nobility were persecuted by the populace, or well, the ones that did not leave the country. Socialist rule itself would see the construction of four major projects; the employment of free, government-subsidized healthcare(Sozamzhalans Initsativ), a universal basic income(Sozamzekonomis Initsativ), the Industrial Policy(Shlenndustry Politik), and the cultural policy(Odlern Politik). The industrial policy was what really aided in the miraculous growth the country experienced between 1913 and 1943. However much of these projects would not have been, if not for Loymen Ghauss. The leader of the Skoric socialist front, he acted as the supreme leader of the fledgling socialist state. He oversaw the reconstruction of the economy, public works and various other activities that helped jump-start the economy and recover from the crippling conditions of the civil war. His style of rule helped create an industrial powerhouse, whose quality of life and industrial capacity rivaled or even exceeded that of its neighbors.

In 1940, the Skoric Daugrech, who had finished its military reconstruction, would launch a pre-emptive invasion of the Holy Republic of Lilaborn. This would be the starting pistol for the Pan-Ariethnian Conflict(PAC). The estimated military and civilian casualties of the war is said to exceed eight million. An end to the war would soon be found in 1947 however, albeit in the form of an uneasy truce. Post-1947, up until to 2005, would then start the Cold War period. This would see a markedly different means of combat; that of ideological and economic means than military. This period saw intense paranoia; and xenophobia, something which still effects much of Skoric thinking and society unfortunately. The Skoric Daugrech in this period would support socialist rebels in various countries across the globe, in an attempt to create its own sphere of influence the world over. It would create its own block of nations, the Autonomous Nations(ATNAS), to compete against the Lilaborn led bloc. When 1964 came, the Skoric Daugrech would further inflame tensions by supporting Mer-Freula in its invasion of Merakistaq. This would later lead to an initially crippling blockade in 1970, dubbed 'The Isolation', whose comprehensive economic sanctions would last up until the early 2000's. The end of the blockade helped pave for the way for an increasingly liberal economy, with the Skoric Daugrech implementing shock therapy to stimulate the economy back into in productivity. Free trade allowed for unprecedented economic growth, bringing an equally unprecedented era of prosperity.

Throughout its entire existence, the Skoric Daugrech played an instrumental role in the sciences. It has made significant contributions to the sciences, advancing military and commercial technology. As one of the founding members of the Consortium of Nations, the Skoric Daugrech possesses a permanent seat on the World Council. At its height, it had the world's second-largest economy, and bears the world's fourth-largest presently. The Skoric Daugrech continues to compete economically, technologically, militarily, and ideologically with its peers.

History

Revolutionary Foundation (1900-1911)

The roots for the modern revolution can be traced to the 1850 farmers riot. Increasingly brutal conditions within the empire continued to rile the restless masses. A strong desire for change had existed for a long while, however political deadlock prevented any change from coming. There was a fear among the nobility than giving power to the working class would have disastrous effects on the empire. Emperor Geld Sterafor held this sentiment too, as he feared that this would lead to an unraveling of the first unified Skoric State. Social unrest would continue as hate continued to mount against the ruling elite.

Political conditions would also be exacerbated by crippling economic conditions. The Askorian Empire had, for the better part of the century, been largely in decline. New trade routes completely avoided the Empire, separating them from the lucrative spice and silk trade. Not many measures had been made either to expand the merchant fleet to allow for increased cross-strait trade, to alleviate the pains of diverted trade.

A demonstration in the Industrial city of Leddborg in March, 1910 would be violently crushed by Empire soldiers. This would be the breaking point, as the week after saw countless revolts break out throughout all major population centers. The civil war would officially start around 1903 through the Skoric Socialist Front, one of the first organized movements for resistance. It would ultimately be victorious against the Imperial forces,

The beginnings of the Skoric Daugrech can be traced to the Skoric city of Leddborg, in the present Hiethagard SAS. It sought to rally support from farmers and city workers to rebel against the Empire. This coincided with rising discontent with brutal and oppressive imperial rule. Though a reformist bill was to be passed, which would technically create a constitutional monarchy- this was blocked by aristocrats, however. A boiling point would later be reached in 1904, which rapidly deteriorated into full-blown protests across all major cities within the Empire. The mobilizing of the Royal Guard Corpus to fight these protests only added more fuel to the fire. In an attempt to curtail further riots, the Empire would request the help of the aristocratic houses- whom often operated their private militias for their respective kingdom. This would have little effect however, and by around 1900, the protests would turn to a full-fledged rebellion, sparking the Civil War.

By the first year, the Royal government would find itself stabbed in the back by certain aristocrats, who wished to carve out their own section of the empire and claim it as their own. This would pit the Askorian Empire against aristocratic militias and also the now strengthening Skoric Socialist Front, whom under the leadership of Loymen Ghauss, fought valiantly against Imperial forces. This civil war wou;d end in ten million casualties, with the Skoric Socialist Front taking the brunt of the losses. After a brutal struggle, the Skoric Socialist Front would find itself the lone survivor in 1911. Many Skoric aristocrats were either assassinated or escaped to the HRL. A formal peace deal would be signed, and Empire soldiers laid down their arms, providing a stop to the fighting. A portion of the Skoric far west, meanwhile, was incorporated into the HRL, which would provoke much disdain later on.

Post-War Reconstruction and Social Reforms

With the creation of the Skoric Peoples' Socialist State, socialism would be put to the test in a sea of monarchies and kingdoms. Having emerged from the civil war, the Skoric Daugrech suffered from incredible devastation. Scorched earth tactics left much of the nation's infrastructure destroyed, with transportation and travel essentially paralyzed. As such, Loymen Ghauss would find it important to fund reconstruction efforts to allow for a fast recovery. Efforts were also made to restore the national spirit and further stimulate socialist sentiments within the country.

The Skoric Daugrech would also implement numerous social reforms, focusing on equality and equity for all. The government planned for a comprehensive healthcare system, and offered heavily subsidized medical services to all citizens, to further reduce mortality from the civil-war. Vaccination campaigns and clean water initiatives were also crucial in ensuring the populace was healthy, and it was all funded through the Royal Family's gold reserves. Disease-related mortality and infant mortality would plummet thanks to these initiatives, and would contribute to the rise of Skoric industry, and its prominence on the global stage in later decades. Food security, which was a problem, was also dealt with promptly. Agriculture was heavily subsidized, and there was also the introduction of agricultural collectives, so as to secure the supply of food. These collectives encouraged the participation of farming within the community, to provide a boost to agricultural productivity. Increasing mechanization through the import of farming equipment would also help in enhancing crop yields. Food meanwhile would be handed out in the form of food staples for very affordable prices, but would be targeted at devastated cities and towns to help those that needed it the most.

In terms of industrial development, the Skoric Daugrech made immense sweeping changes. Factories were modernized, with the introduction of new machines and manufacturing processes which made production more efficient. the 'Shlenndustry initastiv' helped to prop up a competitive Skoric heavy industry, that would allow it to compete among the industrialized nations of the world. All of this happened over the course of twenty years. rlhmprotjhporwjthporjthportjpho In terms of industrial development, the Skoric Daugrech made large sweeping changes. Factories were modernized, introducing new machines and manufacturing processes. These all contributed to expanding the industrial capacity. Massive investments were made by the state to expand heavy industry and also infrastructure. This would lead to the Skoric economy becoming highly competitive among the industrialized nations of the world, and this all happened within a few short years. This economic miracle, so to say, is said to have emboldened socialist groups across the globe, as the Skoric Daugrech was considered a shining beacon of socialism.

Political Landscape and Suppression of Opposition

The Skoric People's Socialist State set about consolidating its political control. Opposition forces, including nationalists, monarchists, and democrats, faced systematic suppression. The government established a vast network of surveillance, ensuring that the Skoric Socialist Party maintained a means to survey for dissent. To maintain ideological purity, the education system also changed, with a strong focus on inculcating socialist values from a young age. The Skoric Daugrech attempted to drive home the fact that socialism was the optimal way to govern an econoy, in that socialist values.

Media censorship was stringent too, and journalists were required to adhere to strict guidelines. State-controlled media outlets disseminated propaganda to reinforce the party's narrative, while dissenting voices were systematically silenced. Cultural expression was generally allowed, however, artists and writers were generally 'encouraged' to create works that adhered to the state's ideology.

The Pan-Ariethnian War and Aftermath

The outbreak of the Pan-Ariethnian War in 1940 marked a turning point in the history of the Skoric Daugrech. Skoric spies had relayed information that the Holy Republic of Lilaborn was mobilizing for a potential invasion, alongside other states that bordered the Skoric Daugrech. Thus, The Skoric Daugrech attempted a pre-emptive invasion of the Holy Republic of Lilaborn. It was considered the 'first shot' of the Pan-Ariethnian Conflict (PAC). The war involved a massive amount of military material and included mass mobilization on a never-before-seen scale. Skoric industry was almost entirely honed for the production of war material, to ensure maximum combat effectiveness.

The war saw the Skoric Daugrech engage in and also suffer intense aerial bombings and chemical warfare. The death toll was staggering, with entire cities reduced to dust. In the wake of the conflict, the Skoric Daugrech was ultimately beaten back, but not defeated. Much like its rival, it faced the herculean task of post-war reconstruction, considering that large segments of its infrastructure lay in rubble.

The uneasy stalemate reached in 1947 resulted in the Skoric Daugrech consolidating its territories captured in the east and the south. The Skoric Daugrech, although battered, remained intact, and continued to exert its influence throughout its bloc of Socialist nations (ATNAS).

International Tensions and Proxy Wars

In the years following the Pan-Ariethnian War, the Skoric Daugrech and its allies faced complex international tensions, primarily with the Holy Republic of Lilaborn and the rising Deysian Federation. The Skoric Daugrech's highly centralized military alliance, known as The Autonomous Nations(or ATNAS), served as a bulwark against regional and international adversaries. The alliance played an important role in safeguarding the Skoric Daugrech's interests and bolstering its position on the world stage.

The Skoric Daugrech was active in supporting various proxy wars, providing military and logistical aid to socialist rebel groups in central Deysia and Noshkovia, often against the influence of the Holy Republic of Lilaborn, These proxy wars further destabilized the region and drew the Skoric Daugrech deeper into the global power struggle.

In 1966, the Skoric Daugrech shocked the world by becoming the first nation to employ Silvum gas, a novel chemical weapon, during the short but intense Second Ruvian-Skoric War. The use of this weapon drew international condemnation, leading to calls for disarmament and a renewed focus on chemical weapons regulations. It eventually led to a chemical weapons ban and the near-total destruction of chemical weapons stocks around the globe.

The Deysian Federation and the HRL's blockade in the early 1970s posed a significant challenge to the Skoric Daugrech's economic and military growth. It forced the nation to explore alternative sources for rare-earth metals and critical chemicals essential for its industries. As a result, the Skoric Daugrech was forced into a period of isolation from the global market, a period referred to as the "Great Isolation."

During this time, the Skoric Daugrech leveraged its influence over ATNAS, a group of socialist nations that provided vital trade partners and economic support. The Muwaic PSR became the Skoric Daugrech's primary trading partner, and the economic relationship between the two nations deepened significantly during this period. This led the Skoric Daugrech to get into unequal trade treaties.

The Skoric Daugrech's economic resilience and adaptive policies helped it to overcome the challenges of the blockade. While import restrictions and trade embargoes persisted, the Skoric Daugrech continued to develop its industrial base, diversifying its economy and achieving notable self-sufficiency. It is one of few nations that could be said to have successfully committed autarky, however, this is disputed.

Military

The Skoric Peoples Socialist State maintained a professional army, ranking second in the GSI index in 2005 for defense capability. Spending a total of 7% of its GDP on defense(2015) the Skoric Military ranked second in military spending. The Skoric armed forces, formed shortly after the official proclamation of the Skoric Socialist State, maintains six main branches; Ground Forces, Air Forces, Naval Forces, Strategic Missile Forces, Air-defense forces, and Domestic Security Forces. The various branches of the armed forces, along with military policy, are headed by Skoric High Command. Much of the military bureaucracy occurs in a large military installation called 'Hesher' or Facility B2, which is located at a remote location in the Suraggard SAS.

The Skoric military has largely been a ground and air-focused force, its military largely prepared to repel any potential incursion from its eastern and southern flanks. The Skoric State Air Force aids in the extensive support of the ground forces via the operation of large radar installations, unmanned drones and other surveillance aircraft. The Skoric navy played a large role in the geopolitical importance of the Skoric Daugrech however its effect had largely diminished through gradual cuts in budget and the size of the fleet.The Skoric army has long adhered to the military tradition practiced within the Askorian Empire. Its military past, going back nearly two hundred years, permeates much of Skoric society, thinking and culture. In 2010, there existed some 3 million soldiers, 1.6 million of which served in the Skoric Army. These 1.6 million were divided into 160 divisions, 135 of which served as motorized infantry, with 25 serving as armored divisions. Some 400,000 meanwhile would serve in the Skoric Naval forces. The Skoric Air Force, which mainly existed as a means of air defense and air superiority fields a large fleet of air superiority fighters. Alongside this, it would also maintain a sizable fleet of nuclear-capable strategic bombers. The Skoric Missile Forces operated more than 1300 ICBMs, deployed across some estimated 20 bases, and 178 command centers. In the late stages of the Skoric Daugrech's existence, it would aid the Muwgawana PSR in crushing a revolt in its northeast province. This would mark the last overseas deployment of the Skoric Expeditionary Force.

For much of the Skoric Daugrech's existence, conscription would be continually in effect. Mandatory conscription would be relaxed in the 2000's, by which a pivot in policy led to the transformation of the Skoric army to a volunteer force.
