Fhainnin Popular Republic

The Fhainnin Popular Republic was a constitutional monarchy which served as the de facto government of Faneria from the start of the Fhainnin Civil War until the formation of the Republic of the Fhainn in 1917. It was the original provisional government of the Republican movement in Faneria, and prosecuted the war against the Council for the Preservation of the Throne. The FPR was constitutionally an elective republican government with a vestigial monarchy under Rih Glen Wynnys-Màrtainn, but in practice operated as a military dictatorship under the leadership of Callac Cananach and the Nationalist-Republican Party.

Government
The FPR oversaw large-scale overhauls of the former administrative bodies of the state, making use of preexisting Royal institutions and progressively replacing or reforming them beginning as early as 1908. Many institutions existed in their modern form under the FPR under different names, typically espousing the 'newness' and vitality of the new government; however, the 1917 establishment of the Republic of the Fhainn was a legal 'rebirth' of the bodies of government intended to act as a final seal of approval by Cananach's government of the completion of the Revolution.

Military
The Revolutionary Peoples' Army was the initial driving force of the FPR's government, and effectively managed most functions of the state between 1906 and 1912 while staff within the civilian government was undergoing a series of firings and hirings to replace Royalist-sympathetic public workers with Republican ones. After 1909, the RPA underwent a dramatic reform in which most of its militia units, which had originally been the bulk of the army, were demobilized and returned to civilian life. The remaining core of the army continued with a series of structure and equipment alterations focused on bringing up the quality of line units and modernizing the military's supply and command/control/communications systems, and was reorganized as the Peoples' Republican Army in 1911..

Taxation
In addition to the Royalist tax scheme being initially replaced with a flat 25% income tax, the seizure of property from nobles who had opposed the Revolution provided a glut of funding that was carefully hoarded and directed towards administrative programs and infrastructure. The FPR has a significant issue with organizing tax filings for a while after the war, only reaching 95%+ payment per year in 1920.
