The Walakee State was the corporatist and authoritarian regime that ruled Tierrador from the Qabóri coup d'etat in 1911 to the Ten Cities Uprising and the Woqelee Reinstatement in 1989. The House of Walakee, the ruling dynasty of this state, reigned the nation for most of the 20th century, despite not being comprised fully of relatives. The Walakee State evolved from the destabilizing Qabóri Woqalate following the Annexation of Auqali & Sonaxa in 1911. Following the Qabóri coup d'etat in 1911, the corporatist state was officially renamed to the Qabóri Commonwealth and was recognized as the successor state to the Woqalate. After Pedro Kintón took over as the Grand Woqali, the state eventually would become known the Democratic Republic of Tierrador in 1951, inspired greatly by the anti-industrialization movements which took place throughout the nation at the time, and the preservation of South Cronan culture in a rapidly-Occidentalizing world.
The Walakee State, throughout its history, was greatly opposed to the ideologies of communism, socialism, syndicalism, anarchism, liberalism, industrialism, and occidentalization. The regime was heavily conservative, corporatist, and nationalist. Due to the large spikes in incarceration and police activity throughout its reign, the Walakee State was commonly dubbed as a police state. Its policy fully emphasized Tierrador as the dominant superpower in Crona, along with maintaining a sizable sphere of influence across South Crona. It also established itself as the supposed source of civilization and stability to the overseas societies in the smaller overseas possessions. Under the Walakee State, Tierrador perpetuated a vast, centuries-old empire with a total area of 5,074,979 square kilometers (1,959,460 sq mi), while other former imperialistic powers had, by this time, largely acceded to global calls for self-determination and independence of the lands that they subjugated. Pedro Kintón, who served as head of state for the majority of the regime's tenure, enhanced the imperialistic tendencies of Tierrador, with the anti-narcotic sentiment and the police state theory sparking the South Cronan Narco Wars, which lasted from 1959 to 1983.
Despite the largely anti-Occidental sentiment which was seen in both Walakee politics and society, the regime maintained fairly close ties with the Occident, being a full member of many Occidental-dominated organizations, such as the Levantia and Odenoru Treaty Association (LOTA) since its founding, the League of Nations since 1961, and going as far as fighting alongside Levantine powers in the Second Great War until 1941. Following the onset of the Occidental Cold War, the Walakee State maintained its relationship with LOTA, despite protests from anti-Occidental groups and fears of the Levantine Creep reaching Tierrador. The Walakee State was best known for the policies enacted under the administration of Kintón. Kintón paved the way towards economic integration with the rest of Crona and a higher level of economic liberalization in the country. From 1951 until Kintón's death in 1983, Tierrador saw a consistent GDP per capita increase at an annual average rate of 6.7 percent.
Tierrador under the Walakee State saw a massive increase in economic activity despite the heavy restrictions on industrialism. The regime emphasized Tierrador's status as a breadbasket in South Crona, enjoying being top-ranked consistently in agricultural exports. Following the Ten Cities Uprising in 1989, which saw mass riots, protests, and civil unrest in the ten largest cities in Tierrador to protest the authoritarian regime, the Walakee State under the more liberalized Nathan Hauqač would crumble. The Woqelee Reinstatement followed the mass rebellion, where the House of Walakee was formally deposed and replaced with the House of Woqelee. Many policies from the Walakee State remain in modern-day Tierrador.
History
1911 Coup d'Etat
Towards the beginning of the 20th century, Qabóri had experienced a steep decline in financial and political stability. Most of the blame had been laid on the House of Woqelee, primarily by trade societies and banking firms whose control over the Woqalate was still being limited by the Crown and the Qangreč. The Qabóri Trade Company (QTC) had begun funneling in illicit narcotics through the country's border with Istrenya, along with various sea routes to and from Vallos, trading substances such as cannabis, cocaine, copium, and alcohol, on the black market with almost little to no regulation. ATTC and the ACOM Company would follow suit, eventually overpowering the Crown for control over the Woqalate. The House of Woqelee's apparent inability to control the three companies' chokehold on black market pressure points mainly stemmed from their blatant unwillingness to do so, opting instead to deflect the blame on the Qabóri public for enabling that kind of behavior, which eventually created an anti-monarchic sentiment throughout the Qabóri masses.
Woqali Saki would had launched a full-scale invasion of Auqali, an independent mining territory that had repeatedly clashed with Qabór over use of its own territory along with its position in the Qabóri hegemony slowly diminishing due to its leniency on the South Cronan black market. Auqali, having majorly reduced spending on its own militia, was severely outnumbered in the invasion, allowing for a swift, four-week campaign for the Qabóri Army. The conquering and admission of Auqali as Qabór's 13th commonwealth was not well-received by the other commonwealths, as Qabór's mandatory conscription policy had negatively-affected the Woqalate's labor force. This had done a massive loss to the country's agriculture industry, an industry that had made up 39% of the Qabóri workforce in the 1910 census.
QTC and ATTC had not even batted an eye at the Auqali invasion, as it had not served much of a purpose besides opening a second trade route to Sarolasta through the Orixtal Sea, the other and more major port being the City of Porvaos. Despite this, knowing their ability to easily get a rise out of the Qabóri public and force them to intervene against the government, used the Auqali situation to bait Qabóri students and scholars into inciting a revolution against the House of Woqelee. The trade societies had employed the Walakee Group, led by disgraced University of Yetepec professor Ayono Sanlec to launch a massive insurrection against the House of Woqelee. By the end of the insurrection, the House of Woqelee had been exiled to Tawakee, at the time an undeveloped republic ruled by Abioic-minority tribes.
