== The Essential Nature of Curiaistan ==
One of the oldest members of Liberalia. Curiaistan has served as Culture Minister, Speaker of the Parliament, Temporary and Permanent Guardian and Interior Minister.


== '''Origins''' ==


Curiaistan was formed when Palacetonian Citizens felt the nation of [[Palacetonia]] was getting overcrowded. Dear Leader gave permission for a few settlers to found a new country and emigrate. After settling here and there, Dear Leader ordered Curiaistan to join [[WWSETI]]. This was in response to an appeal from [[Carops]] who felt that democracy was under threat in that region. Shortly after joining, the word was out that [[Carops]] and others had formed a breakaway region called [[Liberalia]]. Subsequently, in the interests of stabilising democracy across Nation States as a whole, it was felt prudent that Curiaistan should join [[Liberalia]] and work to established the safety of the region.


== '''Next Steps'''==

After joining [[Liberalia]], [[Palacetonia]] felt that an experienced diplomat was required to help out. Dear Leader appointed Sarah Quent to be the Senior Aide. Her responsibilities are to oversee the interaction of Curiaistan with Liberalia. Sarah Quent narrowly failed to be elected the ambassador to the [[NS Centrist Party]] by the Palacetonian Parliament losing out to Clive Abbott and subsequently chosen by Dear Leader as his personal choice to make up for this disappointment. She is a very controversial character and her arrival certainly ruffled a few feathers [http://s14.invisionfree.com/Liberalia/index.php?showtopic=40 link]. It only goes to see what will happen next with her but she will not be quiet for long!

== '''Early Activity''' ==


Curiaistan joined the Liberal Democrats party in the Liberalian Parliament and subsequently the Liberalian Treaty Organisation or LTO for short. Curiaistan was also appointed to the Liberalian Cabinet as Culture Minister and Regional Heritage minister

A political assassination lead to [[Four Hectares]] accusing [[Gmany]] of carrying out the assassination from which a failure of diplomacy and tact lead to all out war between the allies and the LTO. The LTO certainly struggled with the overwhelming military might of the allies and lost the war. The Treaty of Bahia Esmerelda concluded the war. 

With the subsequent admission of [[Four Hectares]] [http://s14.invisionfree.com/Liberalia/index.php?showtopic=543 link] that [[Gmany]] was not responsible for the assassination, the LTO started a Trade Embargo on members of the allies.


== '''What Happened Next''' ==

The throwing out of [[Loslakia]] led to an election campaign for leader of the Liberal Democrats in which Curiaistan was elected. The party was subsequently renamed The Liberal Party which also has [[Fernetti]] as Vice-Chair.

Curiaistan had elections after the death of The President. Sarah Quent, Paul Layde, Lt Col Sadner and Attorney General Raley (who came to prominence with the trial of Elias Strana for crimes in Carops) all stood for election.

After a lot of behind the scenes effort as different nations tried to ensure that their chosen candidate was elected, Raley was arrested for electoral fraud. He was sprung out of prison by people who are now known to be Latagonian special forces.

Sarah Quent was eventually declared the winner after the votes had been counted. Lt Col Sadner withdrew on promise that he would become leader of the Armed Forces.

After a period of relative inactivity in the [[Liberalia]] parliament, Curiaistan was chosen as Speaker of the Parliament by [[Carops]]. This was after the elections of April which was at the time a dirty campaign leading to accusations of cheating by Julio Trigman. After Julio's defeat in the elections, he conceded defeat and the government took up their posts.


== '''Afterwards''' ==


Curiaistan declared a cold war on Latagon over aggression from [[Latagon]] towards [[Carops]] over the Carops-Ardalian pact. This has now escalated with [[Latagon]] declaring war on the Curia nation.

Curiaistan was elected as a Temporary Guardian for the first time along with Fernetti and Nucleawasta. His term was marked by the able handling of the Prosecutor role in the Trial of Supreme Chancellor Vallidorium.

[[Random_Textbox_Input]] asked Curiaistan to continue as Speaker of the Liberalia Parliament when elected Prime Minister.


== '''Recently''' ==

Curiaistan harboured ambitions of winning the Prime Minister post but in the Primaries, Curiaistan stood down to allow [[Fernetti]] to do so. When the results were announced, Soccersian and Fernetti were crowned co-Prime Ministers and Curiaistan was chosen to run the Interior Ministery.

[[Farlane]] left Liberalia because of issues over [[The Serenade]]. This created an opening for a new Permanent Guardian which Curiaistan won comfortably.


== '''Military Forces''' ==


The army is divided into ten Corps, each with 10 regiments They are armed with pistols, rifles, machine guns, flamethrowers, tanks, All Terrain Vehicles, helicopters and earthshaker cannons.

The Navy is divided into 5 Battle Groups. Each have an Aircraft carrier called Carthage, Roman, Ottoman, Hittite and Hellenic

The Airforce is split into 6 Squadrons. Five have airplanes and helicopters and one has stealth planes.

The Commander in Chief is Marshall Sadner who first came to prominence with the evacuation of Curia troops off the Gmany beaches during the Great Liberalian War. He is ably supported by Admiral Wend and Air Marshall Troner.


== '''Politics''' ==

The leader is Sarah Quent supported by Jenni Bowter. Jenni Bowter took over from Paul Layde who was disgraced over a sex scandal leading to the loss of important papers about oil in [[Liberalia]].
