East Pua, officially known as the Floracratic Republic of Pua, is a country located south of Naronpar and Xarslasja, north of Amuj, Aylongam and Pihi, and east of West Pua in the region of Pua on the continent of Thasusa.

Etymology

The name Floracratic Republic of Pua is rooted primarily in English. Floracratic is a portmanteau of floral and democratic, which, along with Republic are considered misnomers as the government lacks democratic and republic characteristics. Pua is a Maori word for flower.

Prehistory

The Blossomic Empire of Pua was an absolute monarchy encompassing the entirety of the Pua region in the continent of Thasusa. Due to the widespread disillusionment surrounding the corrupt leadership in the Imperial government, a populist revolution began, and the King was forced to abdicate the throne.

History

Independence

Following the Puly Revolution the two largest populist factions of the ensuing long and bloody civil war could not agree on how best to run the country following the swift defeat of loyalist forces. The ideological split was primarily caused by differences in the religious views of the floral gods; those factions later became the governments of Pihi, East and West Pua.

Eastern Expansion

During the Scramble for Murbetia East Pua took the confusion as an opportunity to “Liberate” the eastern lands from [.[insert river name].] to [.[insert second river name].].

Economy

Defense from the "imperialist dogs" of West Pua was seen as vital and much government effort went toward the planning of these defensive structures and networks, however due to the FRP Fuel Crisis of July 2024 the projects were unable to break ground on their prospective start dates. An internal study found that the East Puan economy was "the best and greatest to ever exist" and that "[their] economic policies are rivaled by no other land."

Demographics

Religion

The people of the Floracratic Republic of Pua officially worship the sole state religion of Cornflorism a sect of Florism that believes in Cornflower primacy above the Oxeye Daisy and Allium flowers respectively.

Government and Politics

After the armistice agreement on the 12th of July 2024 the East Puan government set to work in changing the governing systems from the previous monarchal system to its modern socialist unitary state.

Foreign Relations

East Pua has a neutral stance toward most geopolitical issues, taking a stance only when it affects them directly. Despite the FRP's official policy of total neutrality General Secretary Peaches made the decision to apply to join the United Ŋations on 08/25/2024.

Neighbors

Amuj

Amujan diplomats requested East Puan entry into the Transpunese Economic Union on 2024-07-20 but East Puan officials rejected the offer because of West Pua's entry into the union.

Aylongam

Many East Puans see Aylongam in a favorable manner despite a noted lack of official interaction between the two governments. Following the East Puan “liberation of the East” during the Scramble for Murbetia Aylongam premier Zendrid requested total or partial control over the Pangama Canal to which the East Puan General Secretary offered a 100-year lease of the East Puan segment of the canal bank.

Naronpar

Naronpar

Pihi

The third largest faction in the Puan Civil War were a group of Pihitian separatists, caused significant trouble for the East Puan government to such an extent that the East Puan government installed a puppet leader and created a suzerainty state by acknowledging the Pihitians preferred flower is second best to East Pua’s in exchange for their sovereignty.

West Pua

West Pua is seen by many East Puans as ‘an antithetical and cautionary look into the mirror of what [they] may become if perverse political forces are allowed to blossom within [their] borders.’

Xarslasja

Xarslasjan Bezuv Agma Schwa requested an exchange of embassies between East Pua and Xarslasja on insert date here. Following the island exchange between West Pua and Xarslasja on 22 August 2024 the East Puan government raised Xarslasja on the FRP Ngational Security Concern Index.

Kyaw Cen

Kyaw Cen, while depicted neutrally by East Puan government channels, is considered to be a potentially concerning agent of imperialism but too far to be of any real threat alone.
