Republic of Vrane

The Republic of Vrane (ブレーン共和国, Burēn Kyōwakoku) is a country located in the Yorbian Continent bordering the Sahiro Republic and Skyton Republic, and is known for being home to The Jury. The current leader of the Republic of Vrane, is a man named Magnus. Magnus is the son of the previous ruler Proter, who took over after the latter's death. Magnus is also noted as being the youngest leader in the Republic's history. The Republic of Vrane was once an isolationist nation, however since Vrane recently suffered through a seven year long civil war, they have now had to partly rely on other countries' support to rebuild.

Overview
The Republic of Vrane is ruled through dictatorship, however most believe the current ruler to have good intentions. As such, all powers (government, legislation, army) are held by the sole figure of the current leader, Magnus, making him an absolute ruler with unlimited authority over the citizens. While he may be the official ruler of the Republic of Vrane, many politicians see Magnus' youth and inexperience as a weakness, a way to manipulate him into doing what they want. As such, he isn't always the one truly behind running the country.

The current population of the country is estimated to be around 2 million, with the casualties from the civil war bringing it down to there from the previous 2.7 million.

History
The Republic of Vrane's form of government derived from the aftermath of the recent civil war, with then-leader Proter deciding that establishing a dictatorship would allow him to seize full control over the whole country, deterring any future rebellions and gifting him a stronger rule. The civil war all originated with the prejudice held by many against the Celestials living in Vrane. Once an isolationist nation, the following devastation from the war lead to the country needing support from other countries to survive, which lead to Proter reaching out to other countries for aid, something his son Magnus would have to continue once he passed away.

The Republic of Vrane is currently holding negotiations between themselves and the neighbouring country of the Skyton Republic, as they are suspected of planning to attack Vrane.

Celestial Prejudice
One of the catalysts for the civil war in the Republic of Vrane was the open racism and prejudice many citizens held towards the Celestials that had settled there, believing them to be inhuman creatures. What was at first racial slurs being thrown around quickly developed into violence as fights started to break out between humans and Celestials that had left Draikar Village. As people took sides against one another, the smaller yet still large and formidable anti-celestial group turned to the Government to blame for their arrival, and as such started attacking political figures in the country, as well as other citizens.
