Naruist Azkali
Naruist Azkali describes the period of Azkali history between Karomiko 11, 10,839 (September 24, 2023) and Angapizkea 20, 10,840 (February 26, 2024), when Korru Naru and the Yellow Dragon Society narrowly won the Karomiko 11 Azkali presidential elections, called by then Azkali president Chei Nakathinai. One month before the election, the ruling Azkali Peoples' Party (AKR) fractured, with the Socialist Party of Azkali (IRA), the National Party of Azkali (NRA), and Democratic Party (KR) nominating their own candidates. In the resulting election, in combination with sabotage efforts by the Yellow Dragon Society to feed votes from smaller parties to itself, Korru Naru was narrowly elected to the presidency by a margin of 15,703 votes (0.21%); counting only votes for the Yellow Dragon Society itself, Naru's margin of victory was only 491 votes (0.01%). Under Naru's rule, Azkali was transformed from an unstable presidential republic into a totalitarian dictatorial monarchy, which commited genocide against Azkalis and various minority groups in Azkali, waged war against Sunteria, and ultimately attempted to achieve anarcho-primitivism by the destruction of Azkali society at large.
Chei Nakathinai was elected in the Kuoke 10,839 election on 25 Kuoke, decisively defeating incumbent Turruist Peoples' Party (TKR) president Ari Hirata. Under a self-described Nakathinaist economic policy, Nakathinai endeavored on a decisively neo-liberal agenda, clashing with the AKR's social democratic old guard. Nakathinai sponsored and passed the SAALFTA; dramatically slashed funds being spent on the military, infastructure reconstruction, and welfare; and massively de-regulated business within Azkali. These policies caused a gradual growth in discontent amongst Azkalis, with many feeling betrayed by the abandonment of the social democratic voter base of the AKR.
Korru Naru, the leader of the then-conceived Conservative Turruist sect the Society of the Yellow Dragon, announced in Lerearitsa that he would be contesting the next Azkali presidential elections, then scheduled for Kuoke 10,842.
