War With Indonesia

Main article: Indonesia-South Africa War

On June 11th, 2008, Indonesia plunged into war with South Africa and her allies Venezuela, Argentina and the USA in the Second South African War. In the course of hostilities SA managed to escape unscathed from the fighting until July 24th, when KwaZulu-Natal and Northern Cape fell. Western Cape held out until the 25th, and Free State lasted until the 26th. South Africa and Indonesia both discussed and decided that a peace was needed the very same day. South Africa lost all their ground about a year later to Indonesia and Brazil.

Croatian Occupation

Leading up to the September presidential elections a group of self-labeled Croatians, later labeled by the South Africans as Zockyists, arrived in South Africa and established Proud Africa (now known as the Croatian African Union), a Croatian nationalist party. South African citizens approached this party wearily, mainly due to concerns about past foreign invasion. The negative attention lead zocky, leader of the CAU, to release a statement about their intentions.[1] The article was not enough to gain acceptance from the African people and during the September first elections many accused CAU and their leader of multi-accounting.[2] The party president of the Black Lion Front, Esteban Delgado, published a searing attack on the Croatian rule a few days after their election win.[3] In this article Esteban discussed several South African states seceding from South Africa, which were established as the Independent South African Republic (ISAR). The new break-away state has been recognized internationally by individuals and several states, including Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Brazil. Governing ISAR are the South African people represented in South Africa and internationally as the South African Independence League (SAIL).

The Croatian government has been embroiled in a series scandals concerning the nation's treasury; the first involving a missing 80 gold and 2000 ZAR, which was reported by Esteban Delgado in an article in which he explains false accusations against him by the CAU for thieving 6000 ZAR from the treasury before the election of zocky.[4] 5500 ZAR and 160 gold also went missing from the treasury. According to zocky this money was withdrawn to purchase a hospital, without the consent or knowledge of the South Africans.[5] The hospital eventually came after much outburst from the South African public over the missing money. It took approximately 19 days to buy the hospital.[6] Another scandal appeared during the October elections campaign when zocky withdrew all of the rand and gold from the nation's treasury, which was only returned after the CAU had won the election. Zocky and the CAU have been constantly criticized by South African citizens regarding the worsening economy. The Croatian African Union denies these claims. [7][8]

As soon as the admins announced the creation of Croatia, the government slowly dissolved in the final stages that lead up to the December election, and after three oppressed elections, Compmage, was elected as the first non-Croatian president.

South African Independence Movement

Main article: South African Independence Movement

Established before the September elections in order to defend the nation's sovereign and inactive government from outside invasion, the South African Independence League was formed by the Black Lion Front (BLF), Free Africa (FA), and the African National Congress (ANC) as a party coalition.

Following the Croatian takeover of the government, independence was called upon by Esteban Delgado of the BLF with the publishing of a document called the Proclamation Of South African Sovereignty. Thus, the Independent South African Republic was founded as a break-away of four of the five regions in South African, controlled by BLF party members (two of which joined following the first two region's secession). Mmabatho, Polokwane, Pretoria, and Bloemfontein were governed by SAIL, or South African natives living in these states.

The movement as of December 7th has been put in temporary inactivity, until South Africa is once again under foreign occupation.

Theocratic Italian Soldiers

A little over 10 days before the 3rd congressional elections were held in eRepublik a new party emerged, the Socialist Union of SA (more commonly known as SUSA), a party full of high ranking Italian soldiers and supposed Italian "Theocracy" members.[9] Word was being spread that the party was there to gain a majority in congress and take all of the countries gold, but it wasn't until the day before the elections that word was released in the media. [10] Despite this accusation, SUSA still managed to win a majority of the congress seats, with 21 congressman (52% spread) being elected. [11] The moment SUSA was elected into power an article was published demanding all of the countries gold, which South Africa had moved to their bank the day before the elections took place [12][13] South African politicians told the Italian soldiers that their countries economy was already ruined and that they are used to take overs and will not give up the gold. This angered SUSA who then started introducing a flurry of bills aimed at destroying the economy and even demanding the impeachment of the current president, compmage.[14][15][16][17][18][19][20]

When word of the take over spread, the Italian government stated that they did not support the SUSA, the party then changed it's name to the Theocratic Party, trying further to distance themselves from the country they came from.[21] Swann, an Italian politician experienced in this area, also wrote an informing article detailing the background behind the take over as well as the whys, and what's.[22] Some have seven suggested that the entire party will leave soon should they not receive the gold, as they want it to become stronger soldiers for Italy's fighting force.[23]

With the outlook of retrieving the gold looking slim, several Theocratic Party members left the congress, and some South Africa itself.[24] Now, the Theocratic Party is no longer a threat and has fewer than four members in their party, effectively destroyed by a cunning political strategy.

Political Takeover

In the last week of May, 2009. South Africa was taken over by Brazil and Indonesia, by the use of a PTO, or Political Takeover. The native South African population was evacuated to Florida, USA, and Spain. Among others. The South African government in exile, and ex-South African citizens formulated a plan with the Matzanesian Ruling Elite political party, that consists of South African friendly Romanians. The Matzanesian Ruling Elite party planned on winning the June elections in Indonesia, and thereby return Indonesian occupied South Africa. The Matzanesian Ruling Elite party unfortunately lost the elections, and the South Africans are forced to wait for another opportunity.
