A Brief History of Afrika:

Early History:

For as far as we know, no one ever set foot on Afrikaanzia[The Afrikaan Mainland] before 1500AD, by the Dutch of South Africa[Not to be confused with Afrika], however people may have spotted it from ships, or have lived there before the ice ages, but we may never know. The country's entire land scape near Kilikam Mountain, a now dormant volcano, which is the most likely landing spot for settelers, was wiped out near 10AD. Afrika was a dormant naturual animal ever since.

The Colonial Era:

Colonists from Dutch South Africa started settlements in the north, south, and western parts along the coast. The colonies developed for just under a hundred years when Japanese settelers came to colonize the islands east side[Japaka] and the island off coast[Japikaanzi]. The Germans soon after colonized the western half of the west, and this began a massive power struggle. The Germans conquered the entire Western and Southern parts, the Dutch kept the Northern parts, and the Japanese conquered and united the Japikaanzi islands. After years of no setteling, and a small amount of people the nation grew closer together, no matter what the situation.

A New Nation:

The nation of Afrika[Zkorps] came to be when the Dutch and Japanese sections combined into "Afrika" and the Germans began to think of joining "Afrika". After the the Germans joined Afrika, it became the country Afrika[Zkorps] on the Afrikaanzi continent. The country of Afrika[Zkorps] was founded with just under five million people and quickly grew forth with great economic progress. The government was a socialist style democracy, which soon fell apart. The Poor Era began soon after Communists gained partial power.

Poor Era:

The Poor Era happened when the communist ideals of economy set into the democracy, but to recover the people misunderstood the situation and voted for a dictatorship communistic government with complete control. This didn't help the economy, and ruined civil and political rights. The Poor Era lasts from the end of the New Nation to the beginning of the Urist Age. The longest poor streak in Afrikaan history, the people on average made 6-8,000 dollars a year.

Communist Age:

The communist age began when the people of the New Nation era became certain that something had to come about to make economic changes in the country. Peasant revolts were massacered by the soldiers of the Democratic socialist regime, until they turned on the leaders them self installing a commmunist government with self appointed leaders and military programs. The communists began a complete 5% conscription program, enlarging the military rapidly. The government increased the defence budgte almost ten times over, and the soldiers were sent to conflicts all over the world. Communist soldiers were sent to varying countries out side of the area, but it also invaded and occupied many neighboring countries. The communists were deploying troops, buying slupplies and get thier slupplies an troops wasted by the thundreds of thousands, if not more. Again, the military and the people could no longer stand idle while the nation deterioated.

Socialist Age:

The communist regime was completely removed from power when democratic socialists cmae back to power. They increased the economies strength and began to reform the military on a less Soviet style idea. The military was cut from 5% to 3% and funding was cut by 10%. The people were rewarded by government programs and a stronger economy, but the wars still raged. Infact one of the largest wars fought by Afrikaan soldiers to date, the Gray Soapian invasion[country ceased, land taken by rebel forces]. Afrikaan forces and thier allies began a massive campaign to outroot the rebels and install a puppet government, the operation failed in the end. The socialist regime began to fail in the end also. The military wanted to be a self controlled, rather than controlled by the people's votes, the wars had scared them all.

Urist Age:

At the end of the Socialist Age a former general, a young one, at th age of 24, became a prominent politician and began starting plans to over throw the current government and install a dictatorships. Ivanoski Kilgar was his name and the Age he started has become to be known as the Kilgar Age. The Kilgar regime rided on the huge majority of Dutch and German peoples, who were convinced into radical right-wingers. This gave the Kilgar the power he needed to overthrow the socialists permanetly. The kilgar and his forces did so and installed his regime for many years. The Urist government reformed te militart and even small amounts, 2.5% reorganized the economy to be a free market, and enacted many programs. The economy therefore jumped from 8,000USD GPD per capitia, to roughly 28,000USD GDP per capitia in a matter of a few years. The huge tax cuts, from 65% to 30% and economic favours made the economy strongest in years, the economy thrived on using Afrikaanzias mass amounts of natural resources to promote domestication. Tariffs were put on imports, the joining of Right-Wing Alliances, and the reorganization of the military to a more western style military all promoted a thriving economy and contentment.

Naso Age:

The death of the Kilgar, encated a huge power struggle between communist/socialist forces and the Naso party extremists, which had the complete loyalty of the Vanguard, and ZZ units. They conquered all the enemies and exiled the communists. The programs they enacted rebuilt the country, every building had to be rebuilt, unless it already fit government standards. Housing for over one and half billion people was built out side of major cities, while they rebuilt their towns. The program costed well over ten trillion dollars and recent estimates place it at 23.6 trillion dollars. The program ended after all buildings were approved, about ten years later. They also reorganized the military by promoting many companies, but some companies started monopolies, causing an inbalance in the economy. Reserve units were paid for by the police, and the police budget was cut from 43% to about 6% of the total government budget. All extra money was sent to the national treasuries. Of which the majority was spent on military and other payoffs. The Naso beliefs started becoming unpopular because of their socialistic view on the economy and the Altek Party started gaining huge amounts seats in the Stags.

Altek Age:

The Altek Age started when the Naso age ended. Support for the Altek party grew over 50% in May of that year. The Gesut started, slowly but surely, changing his staff and electorate to Alteks. The Gesut himself admitted he was an Altek himself, and public support grew. In the Altek Age the economy surged forward, going from 28,000 dollars average per person to 34,000 dollars per person. Government debt was destroyed, deficit programs enabled. New reform programs on welfare, education, healthcare and others. All extra proceeds went to to those programs. By the end of the first year the "approval rating" usually near 65% was up to 85%, or in a civilized country that means it went from nearly 45% to about 65% approval. The Volkisgrenadier were reformed into National, Provincial and Gaurd divisions. The militarys funding went up to about 23 trillion a year and commerce aid was only given when need the rest went to the three reform programs. Capitialism finally reigned in a new era, the era of massed production, manufacturing, growing and resource retrival. The Umpire had become the power it always required itself to be.

[OOC:They are actually lightly populated, and more spread out, but the red areas[also around the capital] means government land. Recently they were all returned to the people, except for around the capital. The military bases all over Afrika are not shown in red.
