Greece (1983: Doomsday)

The Federation of Greece, formerly the Confederation of Greece, is a nation composed of the successor states of Greece that survived the Nuclear Wars set down by the actions of the United States & the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Currently, the Federation has its capital in New Athens, a new city founded by each of the city-states and mainly populated by their politicians.

History
On Doomsday Greece was nuked on Thessalokini and Athens, bringing a mass wave of panic through the country, meanwhile the surviving Greek government evacuated to Crete. With the time Greece balkanize...

Delian League
When the mushroom clouds over Athens and Thessaloniki could be seen over much of the country, the Greeks knew they were truly in peril. For the first few years, the islands experienced a miserable existence from disease, shrinking number of imported goods, and not knowing how the rest of nation was doing truly lead to acts of martial law, or even anarchy in some areas. However a great man rose to the occasion. He personally set sail, going from Anafi to Samothráki.

Libya
After Doomsday a mass wave of panic attacked al-Gaddafi's Libya, which was on an economic meltdown, and recovering from the conflict with USA in 1982, also the economy and trade evaporated. Soon Gaddafi was overthrown an Libya fell into civil war, and start to balkanize. Lawless Libya was transformed into the hell on Earth. Millions of Libyans migrated to Tunisia, Chad, Niger, Algeria, and even Egypt.

No one in Libya known what happened to the non-African World, some said that Europe was turned into dust, other said that Europe was invaded and annexed by a victorious Soviet Union. But then in 1987 A group of colonizers from the Despotae of Morae reach lawless Libya, they find the Cyrenaica ruins and lawless Tripoli, the Despotae reclaimed the land as Greek and annexed it as a puppet kingdom with his nephew as king. With time these state expanded and took more land in the once Arab Libya...

Egypt
Prior to Doomsday, Egypt had only begun to re-orient following the years under Anwar El Sadat. With the advent of Doomsday, foreign investments and trade disappeared, throwing the economy into freefall and causing mass panic.

The Muslim Brotherhood, taking advantage of the chaos, staged a coup in November 1983. The Brotherhood imposed a harsh regime based on Islamist precepts. Over the next few years, political freedoms became nonexistent, women's rights were suppressed, and the native Coptic Church withered under religious persecution



The Islamist yoke was finally broken in February 1987, when Egypt attempted to invade Israel. The Israelis, which were still dealing with the effects of Doomsday and were in no shape to fight, responded by nuking Cairo. The attack on Cairo-which proved to be the last nuclear attack launched to present destroyed the Muslim Brotherhood in their established stronghold of the Grand Mosque, in the heart of Cairo. The resulting power vacuum saw many local warlords rising, and just as quickly, falling. It was nearly a year before the situation had stabilized.

Survivors of the attack congregated in the south, near the Aswan High Dam. The military took control of the situation, organizing the citizens into corps of farmers, fishers, and laborers, to help build a new capital with the decimation of Cairo in the nuclear bombing by Israel. A group of laborers widened and lowered the Sadat Canal from Lake Nasser, enabling the creation of the Toshka Lakes (Arabic: توشكة‎) by the mid 1990's.

The military decided to reduce the flow of water from Lake Nasser, instead diverting it to the west, where farmer corps worked to improve and farm the desert. Refugees from Lower Egypt increased both the workforce and the mouths to feed, and the military devoted most of their control to ensuring food for their citizens.

As the water continued to flow toward the desert, it created the new Eonile, moving north, toward the Mediterranean Sea.

Arrive of the Hellenes
In 2003 groups of Greeks approached the leadership in the Kharga Oasis about developing the coast in return for assistance in developing the Egyptian infrastructure. In 2008, in no position militarily to contest the overt colonization of the northern coast because of the LoN mandate, the Kharga Oasis government tentatively accepted the proposal of the Greeks.

Fear among the general public brought a freeze to relations between the Greeks and Egyptians from 2003 to 2008, until negotiations and a show of good faith on the part of Greeks began to win back the good will of the Egyptian survivors.

As part of the ground-laying of the new Egyptian Capital on the shores of the new Qattara Lake (بحيره القطاره), the Greeks constructed a number of Old-Egypt styled monuments as a symbol of their friendship.

With the establishment of New Cairo (القاهرة الجديدة) trade has increased with the Greeks statelets, and Greek-Egyptian partnerships are developing to make the desert flower around the Eonile and the few non-irradiated bits of the Nile.

A joint Greek-Egyptian expedition was sent to Cairo were they discovered that the bomb exploded in East Cairo, and that the Egyptian museum survived the blast, but was flooded and collapsed. Many artifacts were destroyed, but many gold, gem, and stone artifacts survived and were taken to the new Grand New Cairo Egyptian Museum, where many surviving artifacts of other museums were taken.

Because the Nile Delta, the Suez Channel, and Alexandria were annexed to Greece, some archaeological sites are now in Greek protection, the remaining archaeological sites are in a joint Greek-Egyptian protection.

During the Islamic Republic, the Orthodox Coptic Church start to break down, but with the arrive of the Hellenes, the Copts have reborn and are starting to have better relations with the Greek Orthodox Church.

Kabylie
In 1996, as the Confederation of Greece made contact with Algeria and eventually Algeria entered the Greek sphere of influence, with the help of the Greeks, Algeria annexed many of the nations such as Chenoia, while many others survived like M'zab, Tamahaq, Chaoui, and Tamanrasset. As more states were included into Algeria, the Greeks decide that Kabylie should be part of their mandates in North Africa, and eventually with influence in Kabylie, Kabylie was annexed without almost any fight. Kabylie remained in the memories like Chenoia until 1998, when civil unrest, rioting, looting, and the assassination of a Greek police and a Greek nobel from the Despotate of Morae (a member of the Confederation of Greece) started a revolution which a de facto state was proclaimed. Eventually as the Kabylians decide to die before to surrender, the war lasted longer, the many greeks located there returned to Greece, and the Greeks decided that the land should be returned to the Kabylians, so they signed a ceasefire in 2000 in which Kabylie recognized the annexation of various states to Algeria, that it doesn't recognized some states mentioned in the treaty that secede from Algeria (but the Tuareg and Berber nations were not mentioned), and in which Greece and Algeria recognized Kabylie.

Just after the war, the Kabylians with the help of their former enemies, Greece and Algeria reconstructed the country.

Sicilian Problems and Alliance with the Greece
In 2004, Sicily, which the Kabylians call "the Neo-Roman Empire" invaded nearby Sardinia and Tunisia. these started a massive wave of panic and fear in all Algeria and former Algeria, which made that the majority of nations of Algeria allied with Greece, including their former enemy, Kabylie.

Eventually in 2009, the Second Sicilian War broke out, and the Kabylians allied with the Greeks. Greece have offer Kabylie to unite again with the Confederationbut Kabylie have prefer to stay independent.

On March 16 of that same year, a group of Kabyles pirates attack a League of Nations ship near the coast. The only casualty of that incident was seen on a video that was shown first on Kabyles News TV in which a League of Nations Staff Member from The Alpine Confederation is decapitated. In January 3 of 2010, a joint Greek-Kabylian operation take the pirate ship, and killed the pirates and save all the LoN staff, which only the man mentioned above died.

Federation of Greece
A referendum took place December 31st, 2009 to decide whether the Confederation should become a federation, or remain the same. Member-states such as Moreos and the Hellenic Republic are pushing for Greece's current state to remain the same, as they believe as of now the various member states are too different and to strengthen the bonds between them freedoms will have to be taken away. However, nations such as the Delian League and Agion Oros are pushing for a quickening of unity, though obviously different regions. + A referendum has been scheduled for December 31st, 2009 to decide whether the Confederation should become a federation, or remain the same.

Results

 * Delian League-Yes
 * Mount Athos-Yes
 * Moreos-No
 * Hellenic Republic-No
 * Rhodes-Yes
 * Cyprus-Abstain
 * Kérkyra-Yes
 * North African Mandates-Yes

So, in a decision 5/2, the Confederation of Greece ceased to exist. Despite voting against the measure, the Hellenic Republic and Despotate of Moreos agreed to abide by the decision. The official change was to be enacted the next day, January 1, 2010. A constitutional convention was scheduled for March 2010 to begin negotiations for a Federal Constitution. Cyprus and the North African Mandates, the ones that feel they get the smaller end of the stick are pushing for major equality.

Conflict
In recent years some nations have criticized the CoG's mandates over North Africa. Some nations (such as the South American Confederation) call these mandates "an abomination of neo-imperialism that has followed us into the post-apocalyptic world via the barbarous Greeks. How exactly are they better than the Sicilians?". However, Greece responds saying that these nations were doing horrible under the Greeks stepped in. It is no secret that the monks of

Future Political Trends
As the centralized government in Skyros developed in the 2000s, concern soon arose on unification and the future of the Confederacy itself. Some have suggested a republican/federal model based on the United States, while others the restoration of the original Hellenic Republic at some point in time. One ambitious plan, however, was put forward in 2008, proposing the reformation of the Byzantine Empire, with the Emperor elected from the (current) constituent states; the latter is considered controversial. A series of "People's Assemblies" were arranged to resolve the matter on both the political and public level. The first of these was a low profile event in Skyros on 11 January 2008.

Government and Politics
The Federation of Greece is a Federal Republic with its capital in New Athens on the island of Skyros. Each member state is autonomous and may maintain its own form of government and laws, but responsibility for foreign affairs and defence are that of the Federal government.
