Democratic Ramay

Democratic Ramay (: Ramay Prajadipati), also described as the Regime of Death, was the East Ramayan state that existed under the control of the Communist Party of All-Ramay under a totalitarian dictatorship between 1981 and 1986. It was controlled by the Red Warriors, a  of the Communist Party of All-Ramay, established by Sang Nila, the general secretary of the party, upon the fall of Sragen from government forces on the 17th of October 1981. It inherited all the territory once controlled by East Ramay.

During its rule in power between 1981 and 1986, the red warriors were responsible for the deaths of 8-10 million East Ramayans through forced labor, executions, starvation, and disease, and constitutes as one of the worst mass killings recorded to date. The red warriors central committee believed that these undesirables were hindering the progress of Democratic Ramay, and deserved to be killed or die. As a result of the massive loss of population, Democratic Ramay suffered from one of the worst famines in the history of the country, killing at least two million alone in four years. Internal struggles by late 1985 toppled the regime when some ethnic Yafan generals, with the backing of most of the military, performed a coup on Sang Nila. On the 1st of November 1986, Democratic Ramay was formally abolished and the country renamed to South Kesh.

The country's radical shift from a market-based economy to a centrally planned one in a matter of days was part of Sang Nila's great step forward, which envisioned a fully communist state within months of transitioning. All forms of money and currency were banned and abolished, resulting in the return of a barter and trade economy. Banks and other credit unions were burned. Schools, universities, and institutions were also destroyed as they did not play a role in East Ramay's revolution. Places of worship and religion were hit the hardest, with close to 90% being destroyed or damaged during the reign of the red warriors.

Civil War and revolution (1980-1981)
In 1980, the Republic of East Ramay held a highly contested, high-stake presidential election with all three candidates claiming victory after razor thin margins were apparent the night after the election. On the allegations of massive fraud, the three presidential candidates backed by their supporters and several foreign powers in the form of increased funding and some off the book weapons and arm shipments declared that they would contest the elections, and "use force if necessary if results are not transparent." The supreme court of East Ramay sided with the official notion that "all three candidates failed to show evidence of massive fraud, and that the results published by the elections comission of East Ramay shall be the official results, and the declared winner the official president-elect of East Ramay." With tensions at an all-time high, the three presidential candidates very closely monitored the counting process in various counting centers scattered throughout the country.

On the 7th of September 1980, a supporter was shot and killed by police for trying to breach the premises in which the counting of votes was conducted. The next day, massive protests against the police and government were held in major cities throughout East Ramay, most notably in the capital of. The massive mob marched its way to the people's communion hall, the legislative wing of the East Ramayan government, and managed to breach and take over the building as police were overwhelmed. This sparked greater unrest among the other supporters, who took matters to the streets by organizing similar demonstrations in protests of the actions done by one specific group. The clash turned to be very violent, and was thought to have been the official start of the East Ramayan Civil War.

As the situation degraded and the military and police force unable to stand its ground as cracks emerge from within, East Ramay fell into civil war on the basis of candidate preference and liking. The presidential candidates have, at this time, established their own "legitimate" governments and commanded military and supporters loyal to them to "secure the nation of any domestic intrduers and terrorists," and encouraged them to "fight for the nation." With the backing of foreign powers and funds, each of the presidential candidates managed to secure the financial issue of the war, and fighting kept on raging. With no central authority in East Ramay, a small Volkovist group and revolutionary army colloquially named the red warriors began to rally the people, especially those in the countryside, to join the ranks of the red warriors in an attempt to subdue the fighting and reunite East Ramay as an agrarian and peasants' paradise, where peasants rule the country. Also on the pretext of deterring foreign influnce from Ramay, many joined the ranks of the red warriors and helped secure several strongholds of either presidential candidate through guerilla fighting and tactical maneuvers unexpected by the defending army or garrison.

The official notion that the red warriors were a legitimate group or party in the conflict had been disputed by the international world, citing that they were merely just small time revolutionaries wishing to take control of the situation, however, with the growing territory and membership of the red warriors, especially entering mid-1981, the three presidential candidates, for the first time in a long time, agreed that the red warriors were a common enemy from within towards the democracy and the moral standing of the country, and agreed to "join forces for the forseeable future and hope that a common ground could be reached between the candidates", to the dismay of many international governments backing the various presidential candidates. However, such efforts were futile, as the red warriors managed to secure town after town and province after province with the backing of the largely agrarian and rural population already convinced by the party to join their ranks. This large movement eventually swept the country clean and entered Sragen, the capital of the country, on the 17th of October 1981, marking a formal end to the Republic of East Ramay.
