'''Cheun''' (Daxian: 桃籃) formerly known as Ayermer is an island territory of the Republic of [[Corumm]]. The island is lies just south of the Daxian western coast. Previously a possession of [[Burgundie]], the island was captured by Daxian forces during the [[Second Great War]] after a blockade of the island by the [[Harmonious Flotilla Invincible]] and a grueling four month siege. All of the population of Levantian descent was expelled from the island after its capture. Nowadays the island and surrounding waters are closed off to foreign tourists. Many medium and high ranking Party and government functionaries have resort homes in Cheun, as a result it has one of the highest per capita incomes by household in the country.
==Geography and Climate==
Cheun is an island with a tropical wet climate, also known as a tropical rainforest climate, it has high temperatures and high levels of rainfall throughout the year. The warm ocean currents help to maintain high temperatures and abundant moisture in the air. The weather is often described by tourists as warm and muggy. The island has a lush, green landscape, with a diverse array of plants and animals, many of which have been transplanted from the mainland for their colorful feathers or fur.

==History==
{{main|Military history of Calinthia}}
===Original Habitation===
The history of the Calinthian military dates back to 1521 AD, when [[King Joraine I]] decreed the creation of the Kingdom of [[Calinthia]]. The Calinithian military participated in many wars dating from 1521 AD up until its dissolution in 1861. In 1861, the creation of the [[Republic of Calinthia]] saw the reformation of the military. While the societal militarism that had become prevalent in the 1700s was still intact, many policies were passed to "de-radicalize" and to reduce loyalty to the crown within the military. Such laws like the [[Blood of the Republic Law]] of 1891 were passed to achieve this. These laws and policies saw many military career soldiers and officers pushed out of the military by force, regardless of military experience. This is now believed by modern Calinthian scholars to have greatly reduced the fighting capabilities of the Calinthian Military during the [[Great War]]. After having lost upwards of 1 million soldiers in the Great War, many Republican reformations were undertaken. Several-hundred military officers that were pushed out of the military were inducted back into positions of power, regardless of the [[Blood of the Republic Law]] of 1891. This created a situation in which Loyalist military officers were in charge of Republican soldiers.
===Early Modern Period===
Main article: [[Rusana|Rusana Levantine Exploration]]


Administered as part of the Ayermer Colony with parts of mainland [[Rusana]] from [[1616]] - ???? by the [[Burgoignesc Kandahar-Kandara Trading Company|Ularien Trading Company]], which was renamed the Marialanii Ularien Trading Company in [[1705]].
After the Marialanii Ularien Trading Company lost the mainland provinces in the 1800s it maintained the island of Ayermer as a trading post and as a part of [[La Garrote]] to control trade and fight piracy in the [[Puhktun Sea]]. This primarily impacted [[Corumm]]ese trading traversing westerly.
===Later Modern Period===
In this period [[Corumm]] and [[Burgundie]] sparred over the island a number of times with [[Corumm]] finally capturing the island in the [[Second Great War]].

===Daxian rule===
===Government===
[[File:Gula.jpg|thumb|President of the Green Villas Residential Homeowners Association and ruler of Cheun, Gula Linlin]]
Originally the governance of Cheunn was regulated by the Cheun Statute in 1938, which was implemented after the end of rule by [[Burgundie]]. The 1938 Statute created a bicameral legislative assembly for the island, the Cheunn Island Council that served for triennial terms and the Advisory Assembly that served four years. Executive authority was vested in the Chief Bureaucratic Officer who was elected every five years from a slate of ten bureaucratic functionaries.


Over the next two decades, riots, protests, and military demonstrations would see the Republican military deployed around Calinthia. The most famous of these incidents is the [[Christmas Civil War]] of 1931. While only lasting a single week, this conflict saw Republican military units assaulting positions of the Loyalist [[138th Calinthian Guard Division]] in the city of Milanopolis on the 21st of December. The result of the battle was 6,264 Republican soldiers killed, and 4,069 Loyalist soldiers killed, as well as the surrender of the 138th Calinthian Guard Division. This sparked public outrage at the Republican guard for having gone straight to violence against Loyalists, and refusing to negotiate. It wasn't until 1936 that the Republican military would face a much larger split in forces when Republican General [[Juna Ricola]] would take half of the military and a majority of the Navy and join the Loyalist cause. For two years the [[Calinthian Civil War]] would rage, resulting in the dissolution of the [[Republic of Calinthia]], and it's military. For six years the [[Calinthian Civil War]] would rage.
The institutions established by the 1938 statute were replaced in 2007 with the Improved Cheun Statute. The new legislative body is the unicameral Assembly of Homeowners Associations, which as the name implies, gathers all of the registered homeowners associations into a legislative body. The elite Green Villas Residential Association has several built in advantages such as veto power and guaranteed seats in most committees. The new executive was renamed to the Supreme Bureaucratic Officer, and it was stipulated only a resident of Green Villas Residential can be nominated for the post. The current Supreme Bureaucratic Officer is [[Gula Linlin]].


The Green Villas Residential Homeowners Association and its organs is where most of the island's political hopefuls cut their teeth and gain experience.
==Economy==
Approximately thirty-five percent of Cheun's seasonal residents are government employees. The majority of those work in the Republic's various ministries, are members of the security organs or serve in elected positions. The most prominent government lobbying firms have regional offices on the island and there are many businesses operating in relation to such activities such as conference venues, private security providers, fine dining restaurants, gift shops and companies dealing in office supplies such as printer toner and sharpies.


Furthering the issues of the Republic was the Communist uprisings on the Western territories of Calinthia by mainly Gothic Calinthians. At first the Communist Calinthians and Loyalist Calinthians would openly fight one another in many minor skirmishes in the North. However, by late 1937 the Communist Calinthians under Goering would ally themselves with the Loyalists against the Republican Guard Forces. With Communist forces in the West and Loyalists in the East, the Republican Guard quickly found themselves on the back-foot. By early 1940, Republican Guard Forces prepared a hastily built defense around Aurelia and struggled to maintain their supply lines from the port of Napolis. Constant air attacks by the superior Loyalist air force rendered many of the railroads inoperable. In addition, the mechanized Communist assaults using a tactic called "Schwerpunkt" penetrated deep into Republican Guard lines, cutting supply lines. The tactic was an adaptation of the [[Urcean]] "lightning war" tactic developed by [[Benno de Caryale]]. It was adapted and implemented by the Calinthian People's Army under the command of General [[Friedrich Guderian|Friedrich von Guder]], a graduate of the [[Urcean Imperial War College]] and student of de Caryale's tactics.
High end tourism and retail are also important to the local economy, Daxian xenophobia is such that the upper crust of society prefers to vacation locally rather than travel to foreign destinations. In this regard Cheun has risen to the top of national destinations for wealthy tourists.

The Calinthian Civil War resulted in the dissolution of the [[Republic of Calinthia]] and it's military in 1942. Following the collapse of the Republic of Calinthia, Gothic Calinthians formalized their new state through the creation of the Soviet State of Calinthia (SSC). The Monarchic Loyalists had declared their statehood much earlier during the war in 1938 with the coronation of King Rudolph Constatine II. With the Loyalists now once more in control of the military, the Loyalist government set about large military reformations. Any Republican sentiment in the military was outlawed, and any still loyal to the Republican government were exiled or imprisoned. This included Republican General [[Licoa Miduci]] who was exiled to [[Ardmore]] in 1941 after being imprisoned since 1938. Radical indoctrination programs were also implemented in the military and even education system. These programs would teach the value of Catholicism, as well as strength of Absolute Monarchy. Pictures of the Constatine monarch Randolph III were commonplace going forward in both military and education installations following his coronation in 1946. In addition, military hardware and technology were improved upon post [[Second Great War]]. A new uniform known as the [[M-41 Kit]] was handed out to represent the renewed loyalty to the Constatine family. The M-41 Kit also known as the Montuoso-41 Kit was the first step in standardizing Loyalist military forces.

==Command structure==
==Organization==
==Tactics & Strategy==
Since the [[Military Initiative 1964]], Calinthian ground tactics consist of large mechanized and armoured assaults with supporting artillery using the Calinthian strategy of '[[Defense Maneuver]]'. In Defense Maneuver, Calinthian forces dig entrenched forward positions in such a way that they can easily fall back while under the cover of other nearby friendly positions. When Calinthian armed forces go on the offensive, they do so slowly and methodically, building entrenchments, forward operating bases, and solidifying logistical lines. In addition, a strong reliance on tanks, mobile infantry, as well as mass artillery mean that no unit has a high likelihood of being unsupported at any given time. However, in exchange for survivability and time, Calinthian armed forces relinquish land, and fortified positions. This means most Calinthian ground forces choose to retreat to better positions rather than stay and fight to the death. Most Calinthian equipment represents this strategy and preference of long range engagements.

The elite Green Villas Residential Association has several built in advantages such as veto power and guaranteed seats in most committees. The new executive was renamed to the Supreme Bureaucratic Officer, and it was stipulated only a resident of Green Villas Residential can be nominated for the post. The current Supreme Bureaucratic Officer is Gula Linlin.

The Green Villas Residential Homeowners Association and its organs is where most of the island's political hopefuls cut their teeth and gain experience.
