Estado Social (Rumahoki): Difference between revisions

The '''''Estado Social''''' ("Social State") was the {{wp|corporatism|corporatist}} [[Rosaria|Rosarian]] and, from 1976, [[Delepasian Commonwealth|Delepasian]] state installed in 1938. It evolved from the ''[[Dictadura Perfecta]]'' ("Perfect Dictatorship") formed after the [[14 July 1919 coup d'état|''coup d'état'' of 14 July 1919]] against the unstable [[Rosarian Republic|First Rosarian Republic]]. Together, the ''Dictadura Perfecta'' and the ''Estado Social'' are recognised by historians as the '''Second Rosarian Republic''' ([[Pelaxian language|Pelaxian]]: ''Segunda República Rosariana''). The ''Estado Social'', being greatly inspired by {{wp|conservatism}} and {{wp|autocracy|autocratic}} ideologies, was developed by [[Fernando Pascual]], who was the [[Prime Minister of Rosaria]] from 1933, and [[Prime Minister of Delepasia]] from 1976, until illness forced him out of office in 1988.

Greatly opposed to the ideologies of {{wp|communism}}, {{wp|socialism}}, {{wp|syndicalism}}, {{wp|anarchism}}, {{wp|liberalism}}, and anti-Levantism, the regime was conservative, {{wp|corporatism|corporatist}}, {{wp|nationalism|nationalist}}, and [[Delepasian exceptionalism|exceptionalistic]] in nature, defending [[Religion in Rumahoki|Rosaria's, and eventually Delepasia's, traditional Catholicism]] as an integral part of its national identity. Its policies envisaged the perpetuation of the [[Delepasians|Delepasian]] people being the most "civilised" and thus was the supposed source of civility to all of [[Vallos]] in general, and to the [[Loa people|Loa]] in particular since 1976 and the integration of the [[Navidadian System]], an idea which dates back to the early 20th Century as the [[Delepasian Kingdom]] became highly romanticised as a short-lived golden age. To that end, Rosaria generally sought relations with its fellow Delepasian polities, the fruits of which being the eventual [[Pact of Eighteen]].

Rosaria, like all other Delepasian polities, was a member of the [[Levantia and Odoneru Treaty Association]] (LOTA) since its founding, and thus was involved in the [[Second Great War]] on the side of the [[Levantia|Levantines]] (being heavily involved in the liberation of [[Volonia]]), and was a founding member of the [[League of Nations]] since its formation in 1955. As Delepasia, the Pascualist regime saw its economy grow immensely after roughly two to three decades of economic stagnation following the end of the Second Great War, soon becoming an observer state of the [[Vallosian Economic Association|VEA]] by 1987. In 1988, [[Nicolas Torres]] was appointed prime minister, replacing an aged and debilitated Pascual; he continued to pave the way towards economic integration with Vallos and a series of reforms inspired by the relatively peaceful democratisation of Volonia in the 1970s.

These reforms were soon forcibly reversed by the armed forces, who at this point were not so keen on giving Torres the same amount of autonomy as they had been durinng Pascual's time as prime minister; many senior military leaders were still loyal to hardline Pascualism. On 30 April 1994, the [[Velvet Revolution]] in [[Santa Maria]], a military coup organised by left-wing Delepasian military officers – the [[Democratic Revival Society]] (SDR) – led to the end of the ''Estado Social'' and of the Delepasian Commonwealth. The final remnants of Pascualist control would not be eliminated until early 1996, just months after the [[Council of the Nation Revolution]] had emerged victorious after the [[Período de Salvación Democrática|civil war period]] that followed the Velvet Revolution.
