Karduv in the early 20th Century
At the turn of the 20th Century, the Mai Dynasty, which had now ruled Karduv for X years, was floundering. Striken with large amounts of debt and having lost a disasterous war to Mai Thi, the dynasty was losing support amongst much of the general public. The Emperor at the time, Mai Chyo Ngò, had failed to fix many of these problems, and spent much of his time ruling in decadence, and allowing the many bureaucrats of the nation to seize more and more power. The endless corruption and neglect caused a young intellectual, Zhèr Terve Dè Yàr (later called Yup Zing Pye), would rise to prominence. Educated in and inspired by the system in Yachiro, he started the Karduvic Revolutionary Party and began publishing pamphlets about his cause. Terve would be jailed several times for this, however, it didn't stop his activities, and each time, he would simply bribe his way out of prison. His movement continued to gather more and more support, and even received endorsements from leaders in X. X
Revolution and overthrow of the Emperor
In 1904, revolutionaries lead by Terve would storm the palace in Vordeng, with support from the military in the capital. The revolutionaries quickly captured the Emperor and placed him under house areest, proclaiming the new Republic of Karduv, headed by Terve. Immediately following this, there was severe disagreement between the military and the revolutionaries as to what to do with the Emperor. The revolutionaries wanted the Emperor put on trial, and potentially executed, while the military was more in favor of a constitutional monarchy. As the two parties bickered, the Emperor was able to escape, and attempted to flee West towards Ru, but he was caught and moved back to Vordeng. The military was now in a panic, as they were convinced the revolutionaries would now seek to execute the Emperor for his cowardice. Seeking to prevent the worst, they initiated a preemptive attack on Vordeng, capturing the Emperor, and forcing the new republican government to flee West. The military proclaimed the new Kingdom of Karduv, and established a regency council and parliament, along with Royalist Army. Both the Republican and Royalist governments soon denounced each other as rebellious traitors, and proclaimed themself as the true government of Karduv.
