Description[?]:
| I've added this to the wiki. Is this acceptable? ===27th Century=== ==== People's Republic and Overthrow ==== Having had a near deadlock of votes in the election, the three main political parties formed a unity government between the [[Progress Party]], [[Barmenian Democratic Party]], and the [[Communist Party of Barmenia]] which was the largest of the three. The coalition worked out until April 2689 when both the Progress Party and the Barmenian Democratic Party pulled out of the government, which resulted in the Communist Party holding reigns of the state and pursued a People's Agenda within the Government. The opposition parties unleashed a massive campaign against the communist party however eventually the Barmenian Democratic Party went bankrupt and in the next election of 2693 the Communist Party held an absolute majority in government and declared the country a People's Republic. The Progress Party ran in the election but boycotted participating in the House of Representatives out of sheer desperation and resigned all its members. Over the course of 1 decades the Communist Party effectively ruled the People's Republic of Barmenia, with great economic and social development with a social safety net in place with no rival. 100% employment was achieved, with opposition parties boycotting the elections during the entire rule. Eventually a Coup D'Etat occurred in 2702 lead by the Progress party, their first act was abolishing the constitution of the People's Republic. This lead to wide spread outrage and riots that lasted into the end of the year. There was talks between the progressive sectors of society on what is to be done. ==== Return to Revolution ==== The outrage didn't manage to turn into anything until 2710 when the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Barmenia organized in the countryside. The Revolutionary Armed Forces formed with progressive sectors of the old army, former members of the Communist party and peasants in the country wide they launched a campaign of Guerrilla war against the Progressive Party. They were joined by the [[Barmenia Workers Party]] who organized several years earlier were recruiting and in January 2715, [[Revolutionary Workers Syndicate]] came on to the scene which was the political wing of [[Barmenian General Workers Union]], who was preparing for a general strike to bring down the Progress Party combined with the Agrarian Guerrilla Campaign and the political campaign being waged by the Barmenia Workers' Party. However a new Big Business Party appeared which used Religion to divide the working class and it made a political alliance with the Progress Party in order to prevent the revolution from seceding. As a result early elections were called to bring the [[Brmék Srnépukmoé Prta]] into government. The Revolutionary Armed Forces stood candidates in the 2713 General election, but it was clear that the political campaign needed to be combined with a general all round struggle in the country side and in the urban trade union movement especially. The political alliance between the Brmék Srnépukmoé Prta and the Progress Party were short lived after attempts to establish an Islamic Theocracy was not supported by the more secular Progress Party,. In June 2715 the government was brought down from the General Strike in capital, the Guerrilla War in the country and in the infighting between the two bourgeioisie parties on how to deal with the situation. The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Barmenia became the biggest party in government and the Barmenia Workers Party stood candidates alongside the Revolutionary Workers Syndicate, who combined held a majority in the "Senate". They began a progressive agenda however their efforts were limited because the Presidency went to the Islamic Party who refused to allow the progressive cabinet to be formed. As a result a formal political alliance was formed between the Barmenian Workers Party, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Barmenia and the Revolutionary Workers Syndicate under the name of the [[Left Patriotic Front of Barmenia]]. In December 2916 they brought down the government and with the next election they increased their share of the votes to achieve an absolute majority alongside the Presidency, they were joined by new parties such as the [[Green Left Alternative of Barmenia]] and alliance of Environmental and Peace groups and [[Democratic Socialist Party of Barmenia]] who represented a more moderate sector of the trade union movement. Upon a few months after the electoral victory, the [[Brmék Srnépukmoé Prta]] disbanded and the Progress Party boycotted the Senate. As a result a economic and political revolution is currently unfolding in Barmenia, where they soon are to be declaring their support to form a People's Democratic Republic. |

| Message | OOC: There wasn't a political alliance between us and the Progress Party- it would be more accurate to say that we tried to achieve one, but were rebuked. And we weren't aiming to establish a theocracy exactly, at least not at this point. Certainly we were not a bourgeioisie party, outside of communist theory anyway. Generally I'd encourage you to tell the whole thing from a more neutral perspective- wiki articles are supposed to be an unbiased account of events, whereas this is really a onesided account. If I get the time I'll add a bit to try and balance. |

| Message | What I agree with the Brmek Srnepukmoe party. But I mean there has to be ways to explain why parties just go out of existance despite having held government for years. I mean when has the ruling party gone from ruling to not existing except from war and overthrow? |
