Tabuskia

The Royal State of Tabuskia is a microstate located on the northeastern Tulanese Peninsula. It was founded on May 9, 2009 after Tabuskus declared independence from the Kingdom of Tulan. The microstate was ruled by Tabuskus until 2015, when an insurrection led by The Faceless Society allowed Fxceless to take control of the state. In 2017, Tulanese Military Interventionists temporarily took control over the country and forcibly expelled Fxceless and 30 senior members of The Faceless Society from the country. Fxceless later used his influence to begin a proxy war between the Saugerdese Empire and the Kingdom of Tulan. The war resulted in a Saugerdese occupation of the Royal Provinces of Dulancia, Moldovan, Niesterkan, Eloanciai, Nolva, and Jistakanha.

The conflict was ended by the Tulo-Sauger Treaty of 2019, which returned sovereign control of all territory captured by the Saugerdese Empire to Tulan, in exchange for the withdrawal of all military units from Tabuskia, and a full reversal of the deportation of Fxceless and The Faceless Society. The Tabuskian Administration and Faceless Society merged in 2020 to form the Royal Party of Tabuskia. This merger was extremely controversial, with a group of around 150 Fxceless Society members splintering and forming The Tabuskian Opposition Party. The Opposition Party was legally considered a legitimate political party until 2024 when it was re-classified as a domestic terrorist organization following the 2024 Arcade South Bombing.

The country is protected by a multi-tier national military known as Li Unío pá La Protegen dó Li Estát Reyí dó Tabuskia (UPERT) ("The Union for the Protection of the Royal State of Tabuskia"). In addition to the UPERT, the Royal Provinces of Dulanica, Moldovan, Nolva, and Mastíka have their own Royal Provincial Militaries that operate in cooperation with UPERT.
