The Mervustan Provincial Guards was the collective name for group of soldiers and politicians, mainly from Mervustan but also from Lochrey, who opposed Thomas Jacobs, in his policies and actions in the First Jacobs Presidency.

History

On 1 April 2021, Anthony Hanlon became the first Premier of Mervue. When other regions merged with Mervue, the Province of Mervustan was created, with Anthony Hanlon as the first Prime Minister of Mervustan. He also became the first Chief of the Defence Staff and became the professional head of the Roscamistan Defence Forces, with the rank of Captain.

17thMayCoup

During the 17thMayCoup and afterwards, Anthony Hanlon and his friend Kayden Conboy, with the support of Dean Merritt and others overthrew the President, Thomas Jacobs. Anthony Hanlon became the second President of Roscamistan, and stayed in the office from 18 May 2021 to 23 June 2021.

After the coup, Anthony Hanlon used his status to make Roscamistan more powerful. However he lost support as he was becoming corrupt. The spread of pro-Jacobs propaganda didn’t help him either.

Downfall

Hanlon and his supporters were unaware of the plan to overthrow him, it only became apparent after Thomas Jacobs made a plan to take Mervustan and overthrow Hanlon. This plan was going to happen two days after 23 June 2021, but Anthony Hanlon resigned that day, and Thomas Jacobs assumed the Presidency. The “Mervustan Guards” collapsed, most of them became loyal members of the Roscamistan Defence Forces again. Hanlon left politics, along with his Vice President Kayden Conboy. The Premiership of Mervustan and the Presidency of Roscamistan would never be the same.
