From the formation of Lucrecia in the 16th Century all the way until the 1970s, Lucrecian society was socially segregated between the speakers of the [[Emeritan Pelaxian|Emeritan vernacular of the Pelaxian language]], who were often in positions of power (particularly in the [[Senatorial House]]), and the speakers of the {{wp|Galician language|Isurian language}}, who were practically locked out of any position of power unless they knew how to speak Pelaxian. This meant that ethnic [[Lucrecio-Isurians|Isurians]] were informally made into second-class citizens. This was often a point of contention in Lucrecian society as ethnic Isurians had no representation in the Lucrecian upper classes, and any Isurian who was a part of the upper classes simply opted to abandon the Isurian language anyway in hopes of advancing their status in society. This state of affairs more or less remained the same for the next four centuries. | From the formation of Lucrecia in the 16th Century all the way until the 1970s, Lucrecian society was socially segregated between the speakers of the [[Emeritan Pelaxian|Emeritan vernacular of the Pelaxian language]], who were often in positions of power (particularly in the [[Senatorial House]]), and the speakers of the {{wp|Galician language|Isurian language}}, who were practically locked out of any position of power unless they knew how to speak Pelaxian.

Of course, back before the late 17th Century, these two factions were rather fluid and membership was more based on the personal whims of the senators than any ideological beliefs. Indeed, many senators prolonged their careers by pragmatically supporting the policies of the opposing faction. Of these two original political factions, the Demagogos, which later became the [[Countrymen Party]], wished for a reformation of the Lucrecian political sphere, namely eroding the aristocracy's near-monopoly on power, redistributing some of the Senatorial House's power to the Centuriate, Tributary, and Common (last two now a part of the Popular) Assemblies, and even move away from the predominance of the Pelaxian language in the circles of government. This last goal lined up perfectly with the interests of the Isurians, who subsequently sided more and more with the liberal pillar, with some even siding with the socialist pillar when it joined the other two pillars in the 1920s. As the alliance between the Isurians and the more progressive pillars grew, so did calls for a great amount of reforms to the Lucrecian system. | ||
By 1950, the cause for Isurian representation was nearly inseparable from the liberal and socialist pillars, especially as the [[Linguistic legislation in Lucrecia|language struggle]] boiled over with the [[Great Isurian strike of 1968]] when ethnic Isurians from many professions simply refused to work until the Lucrecian state put an end to the long-standing Emeritan stranglehood over the nation's politics. With a great many sectors massively underperforming due to the well-coordinated efforts of the strike, the Lucrecian government entered into a series of negotiations with the most prominent Isurianists as well as liberal and socialist politicians that would soon culminate in the Popular Amendments of 1970 which established the foundations for the federalisation and democratisation of Lucrecia. As a consequence of these reforms, two sub-pillars soon began to form within each of the three pillars, which were soon joined by a fourth main pillar, the nationalists, groups that advocate for either greater linguistic rights or even outright separatism although parties that do fit within the nationalist pillar did historically exist, most notably the [[National Fascist Party]] which ruled Lucrecia from 1925 until it was forcibly dissolved in 1947. This also meant that the parties that served as the main political leaders of each pillar were split into two to represent the two linguistic communities, albeit under a "federal pact" to ensure bilingual cooperation and to lessen the segregatory effects of the pillars. | By 1950, the cause for Isurian representation was nearly inseparable from the liberal and socialist pillars, especially as the [[Linguistic legislation in Lucrecia|language struggle]] boiled over with the [[Great Isurian strike of 1968]] when ethnic Isurians from many professions simply refused to work until the Lucrecian state put an end to the long-standing Emeritan stranglehood over the nation's politics.
