| The '''General Administration of the Tryhstian Concessions''' is a special administrative area in the [[Kiravian Federacy]] consisting of several unconnected coastal cities, islands, and enclaves on the southern and southwestern coasts of [[Great Kirav]]. These areas were granted to Cartadanian merchants during the [DECADES] and accorded special status by the Compact of San Lugo. The Tryhstian littoral is not a [[Kiravian federalism|federal subject]] in its own right; rather, its constituent municipalities are autonomous countyships of their surrounding states sharing a common governmental apparatus.
| |
| | |
| ==History==
| |
| ===Foundation===
| |
| The main settlements that would come to form the Tryhstian Littoral were established piecemeal during the 1770s through 1790s AD as Cartadanian ''{{wp|Factory_(trading_post)#Portuguese_feitorias_(c._1445)|feitorias}}'' to facilitate commerce with the emerging Kiravian market. Some further outlying parcels being acquired as late as the 1820s.
| |
| | |
| ===Kirosocialism===
| |
| Kirosocialist rule nearly erased the Tryhstian Littoral as a distinct entity. Much of the Cartadanian mercantile class began to leave after the [first big election Kirsok won] as greater restrictions were imposed on international trade, though some remained, either attempting to do legal business under the new order or turning to smuggling. In [YEAR], the Kirosocialist government cancelled the San Lugo Compact and dissolved the Tryhstian governmental apparatus, but reorganised the individual municipios as ethnic autonomous countyships, as had been created for other non-Coscivian minorities. The population of the former concessions would proceed to shrink by two thirds over the next year, with most of the remainder being Coscivians. The Kiravian Union closed the Tryhstian ports in [YEAR1] but reopened them in [YEAR2] so that São Tristão could be used as a logistical base for its campaign against the Second Southern Reaction. The stationing of a permanent military garrison in São Tristão helped to revive the local economy, but by this point the Lusonic population of that city had dwindled to just over one hundred. The remaining autonomy of the municipios was revoked in [YEAR], Aumém was forcibly emptied of people, along with Sernpedal Town. The urban Lusonic population were dispersed to other parts of Kirav, with most able-bodied men pressed into the National Labour Reserve, while the small rural Lusonic population in the smaller parcels was mostly left alone.
| |
| | |
| ===Recent History===
| |
| The Federalist Restoration on the Mainland did not initially precipitate any effort to revive the Tryhstian Littoral. It was not until 21189 that a civil society group, the Associative Movement of Dispersed and Dispossessed Lusonic-Kiravians, began a litigation campaign to recover what had been lost under Kirosocialism by recourse to the [[Courts of Reparation]], with mixed results. The Courts of Reparation did facilitate the return of much confiscated private property in the Tryhstian settlements, but ruled against the AMDDLK in most cases regarding the settlements' political status. In ''Silva v. Red Banditry (21190)'', the Court held that the Kiravian Union's cancellation of the San Lugo Compact was legally valid, and in ''Serrão v. Red Banditry (21191)'', it found that closure of the Tryhstian ports in violation of the Coffee Ports Act...
| |
| | |
| ==Administrative Divisions==
| |
| The Tryhstian Littoral is divided into six ''municipios'', each corresponding to one of its main territories and encompassing any nearby islets and enclaves. The ''municipios'' are considered the statistical and juridical equivalent of countyships in the rest of the Federacy, but play a much larger rôle in local governance and the provision of public services than the average countyship.
| |
| | |
| Each ''municipio'' is subdivided into a number of ''freguesias'', or "parishes".
| |
| | |
| *'''São Tristão''' - The most populous municipality, comprising a peninsula extending from [[Andrēdan]]
| |
| *'''Aumém''' - Seat of the area's administration.
| |
| *'''Sernpedal''' - Coastal exclave and cluster of 40 small upriver exclaves on the River Sernpedal.
| |
| *'''Seia''' - A coastal island off of County Nuvôn, [[Korlēdan]].
| |
| *'''Durão, Raçine, e Bruxinha''' - Cluster of two landlocked enclaves inside [[Issyria]] and a third coastal exclave downstream from the former two on the River
| |
| *'''Cesui''' - Cluster of parcels adjoining [[Valtéra]].
| |
| *'''São Tomás e Camões''' - A pair of offshore islands in the [[Sea of Odoneru]].
| |
| | |
| ==Politics and Governance==
| |
| <strike>The Tryhstian Littoral is governed according to the Compact of São Lugo and the Territorial Charter of the Tryhstian Littoral. As a territory, the Tryhstian Littoral enjoys less autonomy from the federal government than a state, can have its charter revoked by the [[Federal Stanora|Stanora]] <strike>or suspended by the [[Prime Executive]] in case of emergency or systemic misconduct</strike>, and can have its accounts audited by the [[Council of States]]. Although Kiravian territories are normally intended to become full states over time, the Compact of San Lugo waives the possibility of the Tryhstian Littoral applying for statehood in exchange for guarantees of greater autonomy than a territory would ordinarily enjoy.</strike>
| |
| | |
| The Compact of São Lugo and the Territorial Charter outline a {{wp|semi-presidentialism|semi-presidential}} structure for the territorial government. Most executive decisions are made and issued by the ''Xunta do Estado'', also referred to as the Executive College or Cabinet. The Cabinet is chaired by the ''Comissário principal'' or Prime Commissioner, and its members are appointed by the Governor-General (in consultation with the ''Comissário''), but the body as a whole is accountable to the ''Cortes'' (legislature) which can dismiss the ''Xunta'' and/or the ''Comissário'' through a {{wp|vote of no confidence}}.
| |
| | |
| <strike>The Governor-General is appointed by the [[Prime Executive of the Kiravian Federacy]] in consultation with senior members of the Tryhstian government. The Governor-General is usually a Coscivian-Kiravian and is often not native to the territory, though six Tryhstians have been appointed to the post over the course of the territory's history. The Governor-General appoints the ''Comissário principal'', but because his selection can be dismissed by the ''Cortes'', the Governor-General typically appoints the person nominated by the leading party or coalition in the legislature. In addition to appointing the Prime Commissioner and Executive College, the Governor-General participates in policymaking as an ''ex officio'' member of the College, can veto legislation, officially promulgates regulations and directives made by the Xunta, commands the Territorial Security Force, and can declare states of emergency. </strike>
| |
| | |
| Legislative power is vested in the ''Cortes'', a unicameral legislature comprising three at-large seats returned from each ''municipio'' by {{wp|single transferable vote}}, and one seat returned from each ''freguesia'' by plurality vote. The ''Cortes'' levies taxes, formulates and approves the government's budget, and passes legislation. Parties represented in the ''Cortes'' include the ''Partido da Libertá'' (Liberal conservative, Tryhstian subnationalist), ''Partido Social-Cristão'' (Christian-democratic), [[Minor Kiravian Political Parties#Kiro-Hekuvian Party|Kiro-Hekuvian Party]], Federal People's Party (Conservative, pro-[[Kartika]]), ''Partido do Trabalho'' (Social-democratic), ''Partido da Solidariedade Integral'' (Distributist), ''A Direita Autónoma'' (traditionalist Catholic), and ''União pelas Freguesias'' (localists).
| |
| | |
| The Tryhstian legal system is derived from {{wp|Roman law|Latino-Hekuvian law}} and codified in the Tryhstian Civil Code and Tryhstian Penal Code. Tryhstia is the only civil law jurisdiction in the Federacy, with Coscivian law and Cosco-Brehon law prevailing elsewhere.
| |
| | |
| ===Migration controls===
| |
| In [YEAR] the [[Federal Consistory]] ruled in ''Ýstrinen v. Tryhstian Littoral'' that the territorial government did not have the power to maintain border controls between itself and the rest of the Federacy, but that unlike the states, it did have the right to exercise control over who was allowed to reside in the territory and be ethnically preferential in granting residency rights in accordance with the Compact of São Lugo's designation of the territory as "the abode of the Tryhstian people" and its guarantee that the Tryhstian culture, language, and customs would be conserved there.
| |
| | |
| Since the ''Ýstrinen'' ruling, the territorial government has maintained a migration policy aimed at preserving the Tryhstian demographic majority. How this policy is implemented and how strictly it is enforced has varied according to changing political conditions, with more restrictive measures being taken under more nationalist/subnationalist administrations or during acute housing shortages. The Tryhstian Department of State (''Departamento de Estado'') is responsible for granting residency permits, [[Passport system in the Kiravian Federacy|state identity papers]], and approval for sales of residential property to non-resident persons and out-of-territory corporations. Preference in the granting of residency permits has always been given to ethnic Tryhstians. Certain administrations have also prioritised Coscivians (by patrilineal descent) with Tryhstian ancestry over other Coscivian applicants, and full-blooded Tryhstians over Tryhstian applicants with mixed ancestry. The government has also typically been liberal in issuing Tryhstian Littoral passports to ethnic Tryhstians living in other federal subjects. In [year], it was discovered that the PdL ''Xunta'' of Fernão António da Costa, known for its strong ethno-nationalist bent, had been manipulating the system by flooding the Department of State with fake applications made using the names and Fiscal Identifier Numbers of unwitting ethnic Tryhstians in [[Metrea]] and [[Argevia]] in order to drown out Coscivian applicants. Although no criminal charges were filed, this scandal resulted in the resignation of several cabinet officials and a ◊30 million class-action lawsuit against the territorial government.
| |
| | |
| It is estimated that up to 6,000 Coscivian, Celtic, Finnic, Azikorian, and Aboriginal Kiravians are living full-time in the Tryhstian Littoral without residency permits, mostly for employment purposes. The government has generally been tolerant towards these grey-area immigrants, as they are usually white-collar workers with low rates of criminality, no access to public benefits, and no voting rights in the territory.
| |
| | |
| ==Society & Culture==
| |
| Lusonic culture is dominant in the territory and central to its identity. Historically, the majority of the population were of direct Cartadanian extraction, whether immigrants or their Kiravian-born descendants. Today are a few dozen of these "Old Tryhstian" Cartadanian families with roots in the Littoral before Kirosocialism living in the territory. The majority of the Littoral's contemporary Lusophone population arrived after its reëstablishment in the 21190s. These include recent immigrants from Cartadania and the Cape, Lusonic-Kiravians from other parts of the country (mainly Farravonia and the Kiygrava), and a much smaller number from Lusophone Crona.
| |
| | |
| The largest non-Lusonic groups in the Littoral are Coscivians and Hekuvians, with an additional minority of Levantines, mostly South Levantines.

|
| ===Language=== | | ==Causes== |
| {{wp|Portuguese language|Lusonic}} is the territory's official language and the primary working language of the government. Over two thirds of the population claim Lusonic as their native language, though it is believed that actual home usage is somewhat lower, as many ethnic Lusonic-Kiravians who migrated from other states still prefer to speak West Coast Marine Coscivian or Kiravic in private, and that some Cartadanian immigrants from other linguistic backgrounds similarly misreport as Lusophone. Nonetheless, Lusonic is the predominant language of public life.
| |
| | |
| Most residents of the Tryhstian Littoral are multilingual to one degree or another. Some sixty percent of Lusophone report an "intermediate command" or better of a Coscivian language, and a similar percentage of of Coscivian residents report an intermediate or better command of Lusonic. 24% of the non-Hekuvian population reports a firm command of Latin, compared to the national average of 11%. {{wp|Ligurian language|Sintalian}}, {{wp|Greek language|Istroyan}}, and [[Lebhan language|Lebhan]] are spoken by minority communities.
| |
| | |
| Most public signage in Tryhstia is bilingual (Lusonic and South Coscivian), with the exception of streets signs (almost exclusively Lusonic) and public transport and safety signs (which are also printed in Latin). Shops and businesses in urban areas popular with foreign visitors usually offer signs, menus, and other written materials in Lusonic, South Coscivian, and Latin, while more peripheral areas conduct business entirely in Lusonic. Court proceedings in the territory may take place in Lusonic, Latin, or Kiravic Coscivian. Only Lusonic is permissible for addressing the ''Cortes''. A law introduced in 21205 gives police officers who can pass a standardised Latin exam priority with regard to promotions.
| |
| | |
| ===Religion===
| |
| [[File:St. John's Cathedral, HK bell tower.JPG|thumb|São João Catholic church in Aumém]]
| |
| | |
| The majority of Tryhstians are [[Catholic Church|Levantine Catholics]], including virtually all ethnic Lusonics, Hekuvians, and Levantines and 65% of Coscivians. Catholicism plays an important part in the territory's cultural life.
| |
| | |
| The Tryhstian Littoral is officially a bicalendrical jurisdiction, with both the [[Coscivian calendar]] and Gregorian calendar in use as civil calendars, but in practice, the Lusonic/Hekuvian majority and the vitality of international commerce to the territory's economy ensure that the Gregorian calendar is the main one used in everyday life.
| |
| | |
| ==Economy==
| |
| The Tryhstian Littoral has remained true to its mercantile heritage: From the establishment of the first Tryhstian communities as trading posts along the southern coasts to the reëmergence of São Tristão and Aumém as major ports after the fall of [[Kirosocialism]], shipping and commerce have long been the mainstay of the Tryhstian economy, taking advantage of Tryhstia's position on the Sea of Odoneru, which connects [[Ixnay]]'s largest economic engines. The more developed Tryhstian cities are significant ports of entry for goods imported from [[Heku]], [[Urcea]], [[Insui]], [[Pelaxia]], and the other nations of [[Ixnay Proper]].
| |
|
| |
|
| Because the Tryhstian exclaves offer a radically more pro-business political, fiscal, and regulatory climate than most of the Kiravian states that they adjoin ([[Issyria]] and [[Andrēdan]] are ''de facto'' single-party states dominated by traditionalist, agrarian, and quasi-feudal aristocratic interests), Tryhstian cities have come to serve as major financial, transport, high-end retail, and distribution hubs for vast areas of the Kiravian South. The generally hands-off approach to Tryhstian internal affairs adopted by the federal government after the Compact of St. Lugo has allowed the territory to market itself as a {{wp|tax haven}} for foreign and multinational corporations, and a convenient tax shelter for {{wp|re-exports}}. Tryhstia's mild climate (compared to most of Great Kirav), Romance-speaking population, Gregorian civil calendar, and general European flavour have made it an extremely attractive place for investors and entrepreneurs from [[Occidental world|Western countries]] to do business and establish "beachheads" in the Kiravian market.
| | ==Ninerivers Campaign== |
|
| |
|
| The presence of stong finance, international trade, transport, and high-level corporate management, and tourism sectors has driven the growth of robust retail, food service, hospitality, and construction industries. High-value real estate in the territory's limited land area has encouraged the construction of high-rises and luxury hillside villas, both of which are increasingly built by Hekuvian firms and often reflect the popular Hekuvian neo-futurist architectural style blended with traditional Tryhstian motifs.
| | ==Culfran Campaign== |
|
| |
|
| Despite the highly urbanised, commercial character of much of Tryhstia, there remain some portions of the territory, especially in the smaller ''municipios'', that retain a more traditional economy. There are still some 200 working farms in Tryhstia, producing hogs, potatoes, cabbages, lettuce, garlic, and apples.
