By June of 1897, following significant uprisings in Cape Town, Kiravia exited the Cape. The NRA’s provisional government was recognized provided the new state remained a Kiravian ally and allowed the continuation of Kiravian trade. The transition of statehood from Cape Colony to the NRA's Cape Town government (subsequently known as the Government of the Supreme National Assembly) was formalized on June 22, 1897. By 1898, Natalia’s Indigenous population was in open revolt, with most local chiefs and leaders pledging allegiance to the NRA. “Liberating the peoples of Natalia” became official policy at the first convocation of the [[Supreme National Assembly]]. The invasion of Natalia, the [[Great Offensive]], would conclude in February of 1901. On October 7, the newly formed Federacy of the Cape was declared the successor state to both Cape Colony and Natalia, with Melvyn Kalma serving as the first [[Prime Executive of the Cape|Prime Executive]]. | By June of 1897, following significant uprisings in Cape Town, Kiravia exited the Cape.

Kalma subsequently introduced many [[Restarkism|reforms]] to {{wp|Westernization|Occidentalize}} the Cape, such as {{wp|secularism|secularizing}} the state, instituting a Western code of fundamental rights, and instituting industrializing reforms with the goal of transforming the Cape into a modern {{wp|nation state}}, governed as a {{wp|constitutional republic}} with a secular {{wp|constitution}}. To this end, the political activities of the NRA were separated into the civilian [[Republican Nationalist Party]] - which was to govern the country under a {{wp|one-party state|single-party period}} of tutelage until such reforms were complete. Such reforms proved unpopular with certain Catholic Lusophone groups in the former Natalia and with many Indigenous groups who aimed for the restoration of the Confederation. Anti-secularist, anti-Occidentalization, and anti-tutelage (the [[Kadets Rebellion]]) revolts broke out in 1907, 1908, and 1911, respectively, which were suppressed with military force. | Kalma subsequently introduced many [[Restarkism|reforms]] to {{wp|Westernization|Occidentalize}} the Cape, such as {{wp|secularism|secularizing}} the state, instituting a Western code of fundamental rights, and instituting industrializing reforms with the goal of transforming the Cape into a modern {{wp|nation state}}, governed as a {{wp|constitutional republic}} with a secular {{wp|constitution}}.
