The term was first coined by former Volin Reform Party leader Den Fox in 1926, as he predicted a future where the [[Volkspartei]] would no longer be in control of the majority [[Indigeno-Calderan]] population. This period of time is characterized by absolute control of the country by the Volkspartei, where only a male person of Gothic origin could be elected as head of state. For most of the country's history, all politicians had to be male and Gothic as well. | ||

The first formal example of Volin resistance came decades after the Volkspartei came to power, in the 1650s, crowds of Volins began to gather in Gothic cities demanding a form of representation.

This satisfied Volin populations for awhile, but rioting and protesting continued until 1735, when the Volkspartei passed a law to allow any political party to run for any political position besides Premierführer. | This satisfied Volin populations for awhile, but rioting and protesting continued until 1735, when the Volkspartei passed a law to allow any political party to run for any political position besides Premierführer. | ||

While the siege was an eventual failure, after the dust had settled, the Volkspartei did pass a law allowing voters to be of any ethnicity. | ||
The final nail in the coffin for Volkspartei control would come in 2034, when the Congressional Company of [[Canespa]] threatened to annex Bavogia for Volin rights. In June of the same year, the Volkspartei would come to an agreement with Canespa to allow any political party to run for Premierführer, and strip the Volkspartei of its special political status. | The final nail in the coffin for Volkspartei control would come in 2034, when the Congressional Company of [[Canespa]] threatened to annex Bavogia for Volin rights.

The constitution of | The constitution of Caldera also provided the Premierführer (Ænglish: Prime Leader) with absolute control of the country, sometimes referred to as the führerprinzip (Ænglish: Leader principle). While absolute control was certain, the Premierführer was also kept in check by the Volkspartei itself, which could potentially replace the Premierführer via voting through the Volkshaus if the Premierführer didn't obey party wishes. | ||

Founding around the same time as the Calderan Armed Forces, the Volkspartei Defense (Gothic: Volksparteiverteidigung) was created as a personal guard to the Volkspartei in case the Calderan Armed Forces were to fail. The most important distinction between the two is that the Calderan Armed Forces ultimately protects Caldera as a whole, while the Volkspartei Defense only protects the Volkspartei. After the Second Great War ended, the Volkspartei allowed the Commander of the Army to have a form of control over the Volkspartei Defense, and this resulted in the Volkspartei Defense becoming an elite anti-terrorist fighting force, performing various operations at the request of the CAF. This ended once the Volkspartei lost control of the government, and the Volkspartei Defense discontinued association with the Calderan Armed Forces, which would then serve the new state. | Founding around the same time as the Calderan Armed Forces, the Volkspartei Defense (Gothic: Volksparteiverteidigung) was created as a personal guard to the Volkspartei in case the Calderan Armed Forces were to fail.

Private property and land ownership was allowed under the unspoken agreement that the government could seize it at any time for any reason, but this very rarely occurred. The land for the [[Volksport]] was once farmland, and it was purchased by the Volkspartei despite being able to legally seize it. | ||

While the Volkspartei never passed any laws to create vast forced labor in Caldera, the most prominent uses of forced labor occurred in Calderan prisons where prisoners would be forced to help construct boats, weaponry, and even items like flags, mostly concentrated in the Western province. Leading into the final months of Fascist Caldera, the Volkspartei sent hundreds of thousands of Volin prisoners to Canespa for forced labor there. | While the Volkspartei never passed any laws to create vast forced labor in Caldera, the most prominent uses of forced labor occurred in Calderan prisons where prisoners would be forced to help construct boats, weaponry, and even items like flags, mostly concentrated in the Western province.

Fascist Caldera is widely hated, especially in Crona, and it's often looked at as an example of why one political party should never be allowed absolute control. Some countries are more tolerant towards Fascist Caldera, instead seeing it as an example of a strong willed people controlling a government for the betterment of their own people. Prime Leader LeMieux has recounted that he's glad to be the first head of state after Fascist Caldera's end, and he plans to be much more open to the international community and promoting all ethnicities in Caldera. | Fascist Caldera is widely hated, especially in Crona, and it's often looked at as an example of why one political party should never be allowed absolute control.
