Austranthium, officially the Kingdom of Austranthium is a self-proclaimed sovereign state located in North America established in September of 2021. The capital city is Oppidia. The capital also houses the Assembly and the Government. It was founded by Charles Chalybe. The State of Austranthium has claimed itself a nation, but it is not recognized as a country by any recognized national government, nor by the United Nations. Chalybe has stated, "We all want to rule a nation with authority and hopefully get recognized".
History
The origins of Austranthium come from a randomly generated name. It was founded by Chalybe and his friend while in high school on September 24, 2021. Chalybe and his friend have since had multiple cabinet positions and high government positions. The State of Austranthium was a totalitarian dictatorship because it was ruled by Chalybe from September 2021 – present without any elections and Chalybe has suspended the constitution. Chalybe has also restricted people's freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of privacy during this time. Since 27 October 2021, Chalybe has decreed that the name of Austranthium would change from the State of Austranthium to the Republic of Austranthium. He began making democratic reforms on 27 October by creating a multi-party parliamentary republic. Chalybe later staged a self-coup to establish a totalitarian dictatorship with himself at it's center. Chalybe went on to install himself as King of Austranthium and establishing the Kingdom of Austranthium which currently is an absolute monarchy. On December 8, 2021 Charles I granted the National Assembly powers to pass laws and create a new constitution. Chalybe also changed his name to Charles I on December 8, 2021 as well. Austranthium is currently under a totalitarian military dictatorship while under the absolute monarchy that Charles I runs. On January 15, 2022 the King dismissed Prime Minister Aidan Pierce and made himself the Prime Minister and consolidating all power and turning himself into a dictator who possesses all power over state and government. He also suppressed any opposition to his power grab by arresting anyone who turned against his regime. He also made sure everyone followed his dictatorial ideology known as Chalybeism and he has developed a cult of personality within a day of his accession as a dictator of the entire country. He later advocated for the autocratic and authoritarian ideology of Caesarism since the King was a fan of Napoleon Bonaparte and Julius Caesar. He signed the Royal Emergency Power Decree in which he can assume emergency powers anytime he pleases. On February 1, 2022, Charles had to give up his absolute power due to a rumor of a plot forming against him to establish a republican system of government. Charles I gave up his Prime Ministership and passed it on to Ryan Lynch. Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, King Charles along with Parliament condemned the Russian invasion and passed a security resolution that would prevent cyberattacks from Russia, the Parliament also declared that the Armed Forces must be on standby until further notice from the government. Austranthium's military leaders had drafted ways in which Russian troops could enter Ukraine. Charles said "If I could sanction Russia, I would have for the disaster and suffering they have caused to the Ukrainian people". Charles I declared martial law in case Russia did something he called "unexpected" and then he declared that "the monarchy must retain all political power in order for the state to remain". Charles I is expected to pass a law banning any Russophilic activities in order to support Ukraine. He also created the Secret Intelligence Department (SEINDE) in order to suppress pro-Russian protests and activities. Charles I also announced when he is 50 years old, he would step down as King.
