History
Establishment
In July 2018, Jesse Moore established the Republic of Mivland. A country that encompassed all of the territory now under control of the Kingdom. By late August the nation had fallen into electoral disrepair so Moore, as president, he declared himself king and himself HRM Jesse I with support of the former vice president and declared the kingdom on August 29, 2018, a day that is now celebrated yearly in Mivland as Establishment Day. After the collapse of the national government Jesse I ruled in absolution with a member of the new royal family acting as a ceremonial "Prime Minister". Eventually a parliament was formed but it was small and exclusively contained members of the royal family. This government was in place until a constitution could be written and signed. The Mivlandian Constitution was finished on April 21, 2020, but due to the inability to gather parliament due to the COVID-19 Pandemic and the lack of governmental diversity (The Reform Party held governmental totality at this point), the king opted not to present the constitution to parliament until elections could be held in December.
Burning December
During the first election in Mivlandian history several events went wrong constitutionally during election season in December 2020. First there were problems with the votes as several people only voted for one candidate and this lead to electoral counting confusion as the first and second counts show that Traditionalist party candidate Christopher Ramos and Naturalist party candidate G Clark had tied in the vote. this led to a final count vote with Ramos beating Clark by only 1 vote. Next, Ramos, who had been elected to the parliament as a candidate for Hawkland had now left the seat open for his running mate and VMP, the former commander-of-the-army James Dean. Problems arose when Dean however refused to take the seat stating that he had ran with the assumption that Ramos would lose the Prime Ministerial race and he had no interest in serving in the legislature. This lead to the votes in Hawland being reexamine and led to the Naturalists gaining a seat and the Traditionalists losing a seat. This was strange as this was the only seat that the Traditionalists had and now that they had lost it that meant that Ramos, a Traditionalist, controlled a parliament with no Traditionalist members.
New Constitution
After the end of Burning December, on January 1, 2021, the first nationally elected parliament was swore into office. 3 days later on January 4, 2021 the constution was signed into law by 5 of the 8 members of parliament and finally legitimized the government under a solid framework.
