Line 322:
To take the place of the First Minister there would instead be a Popular Circle, a de-facto parliament which served as the country's legislature and judiciary. Popular Circle elections would take place on the 23rd of every other month, harkening back to the First Minister elections of old.
==== Treaty of Grestin ====
Along with other political upheavals in early April came separate events which would eventually lead to the end of the Dominion of Yonder-Dixie. Cracks had been emerging in the union between Nyasaland and Yonder-Dixie for some time, with the sordid affair mostly being propped up by the personal rapport between Syurii Palgrave and Screenname, the Governor-General and Duke of Antietam.
Screenname was not well liked however among the rest of the Nyasan populace, and this tension came to a head on the 31st March when he was killed and briefly pearled by a gang of disgruntled Nyasans and Gensokyojins in the Palgrave storehouse. This transpired while Syurii Palgrave was asleep, and once she woke up she quickly had an anyeurism, shouted herself hoarse, and had Screenname hastily released. However this event was a bridge too far, and would catalyze the long-growing tension to lead to the end of the Nyasan-Appomattox/Yonder-Dixie amalgamation; it was clear the situation was no longer tenable, and any goodwill which and underscored the union had crumbled.
Over the next few days negotiations were carried out between the new National Council and Screenname, eventually leading to the [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MDmrfQAJtuy_bsqEIlZkBkBp6Cp1eLLO0NEDxrPgSjY/edit Treaty of Grestin] on the 5th April, which terminated the Dominion of Yonder-Dixie. Nyasaland retained only the territories of Cape Antegria and western Arstotzka, which were grouped under 'Makhnovschina' for settlement by Nyasaland's resident anarkiddies. Screenname however remained a Nyasan citizen for the purposes of enjoying UNC protection, as he feared further attacks from disgruntled Gensokyojin.
