Akhadic community in Strathae tries to build bridges after terror attack
By: Florence Roberts

Shahram Nursî, during a travel to New Galasia in 1576.
Shahram Nursî, Kuzhe of Kathmore, called off an event in MacCarmaig for defense of religion freedom, in which he was the main speaker, after the terrorist attack in the Kathmore University.
Nursî expressed his solidarity with the victims, and condemned the attack which killed more than third hundred victims. “Our faith is a peaceful one, and our community is as shocked as the rest of the country”, he said. “It is not my role to comment on the causes and motivations of this attack”, Nursî explained, “that is the role of the police, and we are always willing to cooperate with them, as every citizen and resident of this country, but it is clear that the confused minds or lost souls who could be behind this barbarous terror attack ignore and violate every tenet of the Akhadic faith”.
Nursî, 48, is considered the most respected Akhadic scholar in Strathae. A citizen from New Galasia, he established himself in the country more than a decade ago and he is married with a clan Strathaen citizen who converted to the Akhadic faith. The couple has two children, a daughter born in Eastmarch, and a son born in Kathmore. Nursî studied Theology in the Federal College of Eastmarch, and completed his studies in the Akhadic University of Ashar.
Nursî has been a staunch critic of Blar McLucais and Party of Tradition government, accusing them of attacking freedom of religion and human rights of the Akhadic minority in Strathae. He went as far as renouncing to collect funds for a referendum for the right of the Akhadic community in Kathmore to build a new sakak. “Human rights are not negotiable”, he wrote in an article of a local newspaper published by the Akhadic community in Kathmore. “This anti-Akhadic legislation was a violation of the basic constitutional principles and it is born dead. Our conscience can not accept a law which violates our dignity as human beings”. He still promoted a “spiritual campaign”, giving lectures about the Akhadic faith, while fellow Akhadic believers collect signatures, organize workshops in their neighborhood, and distribute leaflets, read Setgvek passages in spontaneous street meetings, in an undisguised campaign of civil disobedience.
That “campaign of education to the Strathaen population”, as one of its promoters described it, is likely to be suspended for a while, as Nursî called for 15 days of mourning and asked Akhadic believers to pray for the families of the deceased students. Instead, Narsî called for a vigil service in a centric square in Kathmore in front of the place where the Blessed Life foundation aimed to build an Akhadic temple. There, members of the Akhadic community lit candle in memory of the victims, prayed and offered food to neighbors and passerby Strathaens.
Narsî called the Akhadic community to remain united and ignore the provocations of those “who want to end of our dignity as spiritual beings” and “incite hate and intolerance in our hearts and minds”. He denounced the recent statements of some Strathaen governments officials who blamed the Akhadic community directly or indirectly for the terror attack.
“Our community may be only a minority”, Nursî declared, “but strong and united. Akhadism is already an essential part of the Strathaen nation, and they can not be separated. Members of other faiths haven’t anything to fear about us. We are your fellow countrymen and neighbors, and you will find respect in us, the same respect we demand and I am sure we will find. Strathaen society will be stronger when it understands that we march together despite our differences. Those who incite hatred and division would be only insulting the memory of Vintyr 11. Only when Strathaen leaders understand that, Strathaen society will be able to advance and progress in unity, instead of moving toward chaos and division. Ours is a peaceful community and we already ready to offer solidarity and dialogue”.

Hayreddin Bal-Kabir had been the leader of the Akhadist northwestern insurgency since 1577.
Last week, Kyrzbekistan's Ministry of Internal Affairs confirmed the death of Hayreddin Bal-Kabir, military and spiritual leader of one of the most active armed groups of the Akhadist insurgency in that country.
Hayreddin Bal-Kabir, 46, died in a counter-terrorism operation planned and executed by the Kyrzbekistani Armed Forces. He was allegedly hiding in a bunker in the Moshavek mountains in northwestern Kyrzbekistan, only a few kms from the A'Sirian border. According to Yalgän Sharek newspaper, his group hidden military camp had been bombed by the Kyrzbekistani Air Force, and fighting continued in Nashami, a nearby village. About 276 militia fighters were killed -along them Elbrus Alimur, another wanted Akhadist insurgent leader- and about a hundred were either severely wounded or arrested. Terrorism experts agree that Bal-Kabir's death is likely to be a huge blow for Radical Akhadist insurgency in the Near East country.
While groups such Dakh-Sumakh (the terror group behind the attack of the Florinthian Swan cruise) have been the ones which have gathered more attention outside Kyrzbekistan, the truth is that such groups were barely a threat to the Kyrzbekistani state for a long time. Specially after the end of the Wadiyah Civil War, the activities and membership of the Dakh-Sumakh terror group was highly reduced to bloodthirsty and mediatic actions but very often bad planned and ineffective. A report of already 1577 declared that Dakh-Sumakh was believed to have about 20 militants in all Kyrzbekistan, some of them likely young and unexperienced.
For a while, it seemed that Ut-Konçareq -a split from another Akhadist terror organization, Bal-Zurmakh, now defunct- seemed to replace Dakh-Sumakh's place. Between 1573 and 1576, Ut-Konçareq was able launch a guerrilla war against Kyrzbekistani state in eastern Kyrzbekistan. The group, which was slightly more pragmatist that Dakh-Sumakh, with many local fighters, was however almost completely crushed by early 1576. But the group, which aimed to the establishment of a theocratic government in Kyrzbekistan, faced the ideological constraints of similar armed groups, and it proved unable to expand their influence and activities beyond some of the most isolated provinces of eastern Kyrzbekistan. This proved more obvious when non-violent Akhadist political parties suchas the Kyrzbek National Party started to gained ground in the state of Yartushia. Ut-Konçareq's long leader, Ildus Narimanur, was killed in 1575, and since them, the group saw their military commanders dying one after another.
Hayreddin Bal-Kabir's insurgent group, known as Tönyaq Bal-Mokatdezh, attempted a shift of strategy which seemed to differentiate them from other similar Radical Akhadist organizations in the country. Tönyaq Bal-Mokatdezh had more realistic aims, and the activity of the group was reduced to the northwestern and northeastern provinces of the border, along the long and porous border with A'Sir. Hayreddin Bal-Kabir was an ethnic Yisärian, an ethnic group which populates northern Kyrzbekistan. Tönyaq Bal-Mokatdezh was founded in 1575 or 1576 as the merger of a small local group with several cells and remnants of other Radical Akhadist terrorist organizations, such as Bal-Zurmakh, Bal-Manakh or Gaskar Bal-Akhadi (Akhadic Army). Although many of their fighters were ethnic Kyrzbeks, by 1579, the group had already become in a separatist insurgency group, which aimed to the independence of Western Yisäria -a long strip along Kyrzbekistan and A'Sir border with a population of barely 1-2 million people- in a state guided by the Zokuk, the Akhadic religious law, as basic political organization.
Tönyaq Bal-Mokatdezh was said to be supported and founded by the Akhadic Republic of A'Sir, however this claim was always strongly denied by the A'Sirian government. It was also said that Hayreddin Bal-Kabir had been in contact with Septar Bekur, who had been Minister of National Security of the Akhadic Republic of Kyrzbekistan during the Kyrzbekistani civil war. Bekur, who was allegedly seen alive for last time in 1571 in A'Sir, it is under an international warrant and his current whereabouts are unknown.
Under Hayreddin Bal-Kabir's leadership, the group went as far as -although expressing their moral support to the fight of the Rojadavi people- did not recommend to their supporters to move to New Galasia to join the fight as foreign fighters. Some anaylists believe, however, that it is expected a long succession infighting between whatever it remains of the terror group, and that Bal-Kabir's influence is not likely to survive his physical death, and that many of their fighters may opt to join the struggle in eastern New Galasia. Specially now that Akhadist groups in that country are experienced their momentum in the Galasian Civil War.
Kyrzbekistan's Chairman of the People's Council, Damir Kazbekur, has declared that Kyrzbekistan will never cease the fight against terrorism until it is completely eradicated. A former guerrilla commander himself, many political commentators have noted the irony of the increasingly harsh methods of the government's counter-terrorism strategy in the last years. Kazbekur has promised the creation of a development federal fund for those areas affected by fighting between government and insurgent forces in the last months.

Akhadic Society launches campaign to boycott Strathaen goods

Kamran Akçam has been chairman of the Akhadic Society, the largest transnational Akhadic organization in the world, since 1569.
Kamran Akçam, Chairman of the Akhadic Society for Religious and Political Reform, has announced today that the Akhadic Society and its affiliated organizations will launch an international campaign against Strathaen, following what Akçam described as a "fundamentalist attack to the freedom of religion" and "the racist and Akhadophobe policies of Blair Gobnet McLucais government".
The campaign will aim to pressure the Strathaen administration to end its anti-Akhadic policies which threaten the 40,000 Akhadic believers living in the small Brigidnan country.
"The boycott is a peaceful and legal means of resistance against the violation of human rights in Strathae. Our World Campaign to End Strathaen Apartheid believes the boycott would hurt the Strathaen state not only on the economic level but on the political and international levels", Akçam said. He called all Akhadic believers, and men of conscience in general, to join and support the campaign in every country of the world.
Akçam explained that the campaign will also include raising awareness of the dire situation living by the Akhadic community in Strathaen, where events burning the Setgvek -the holy sacred book of Akhadism- have become officially sponsored by Blair's Party of Tradition, and where hate attacks against Akhadic believers have increased since Blair's first government, according to a report of the Akhadic Cultural Center, a NGO based in Kathmore. The campaign will be first focused through audio-visual media and social media, and in the coming weeks and months events are planned in more than twenty countries.
A spokesperson of the Akhadic Society in Eskkya declared that the campaign is already preparing events in twenty cities in the coming week, calling the Eskkyan government to adopt a more strict pressure against Strathaen government. In a press release issued today, the Akhadic Society branch in Florinthus also called activists and Akhadic believers to support the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement against "the systematic human rights violations" announced by the recently elected Strathaen government. "Human rights violations is not just unethical: it's bad for business" can be read in the Akhadic Society website in Florinthian language, calling for demonstrations in front the Strathaen embassy and consulates for the coming week.
Yesterday, a large demonstration which ended in front of Strathaen consulate in Ersyrë, Kyrzbekistan, called the federal government of that country to expel Strathaen diplomats and demanded NETO countries to have a "stronger and united voice against the attack to the Akhadic community in Strathae". A spokesperson of the Akhadic Society in that country declared that "this is only the beginning...the rights of Akhadic believers will be defended".

Tensions between Kyrzbekistani ruling party and Akhadist governor increases
By: Ahmet Irekur
Published: Dein 27, 1583

Judge Irek Mamakhuz, chairman of the Constitutional Court.
It has already been a year since Elbrus Almasur, the candidate of the Kyrzbek National Party, was elected Governor of the state of Yartushia, the eastern state in the Democratic Republic of Kyrzbekistan, and the relations between the Akhadist governor and the federal government could not be more tense.
Almasur, as candidate of the Kyrzbek National Party, a conservative Akhadist political party openly supported by the controversial Akhadic Society, defeating incumbent governor Lenar Anvarur in the second round of the 1582 state elections. Almasur, a former engineer, became the highest-ranking Akhadist elected politician in Kyrzbekistan. He formed a coalition government with the Conservative Reform Coalition, another conservative political party.
Although some of Governor Almasur policies were very popular, such as the creation of a state-owned Akhadic bank and the increase of childcare welfare, other were more controversial, as giving subsidies to Akhadic NGOs and charity organizations linked to the Akhadic Society, and the "administrative reform" of several state institutions, which allegedly involved the separation of male and female civil servants in different floors, which were denounced by the opposition as a violation of the constitution.
The last decision, a decree suggesting an official dress code -black or grey suits with white shirts for men; and button-down shirts with long sleeves and jackets, and long skirts for women- for civil servants and teachers caused outrage and protests by local secular groups, which only increased when several female state employees were suspended for a week due to "immodest behavior".
Now, Chairman of the People's Council Damir Kazbekur announced that they will denounce such legislation to the Constitutional Court, and declared that the federal government would not "hesitate to protect the constitutional order by any means, including the use of the lawful force, if required". A declaration which reminded the constitutional crisis of 1574, when the states of Kombash and Kenlyukya aimed to declared independence from the federal republic, and the Armed Forces intervened crushing the separatist forces, including the shelling of the state assembly in Lebrazhd.
Kyrzbekistani federal Constitutional Court is formed by a majority of judges considered close to the ruling Socialist People's Party, and it has consistently imposing secular rulings. Therefore, it is unlikely that much of Governor Elbrus Almasur survives in the short-term. Only two months ago, another decree approved by the state assembly of Yartushia regarding the introduction of religious classes in state schools was suspended by a state high court.
There will not be elections again until 1585, so Kyrzbekistani analysts believe that his trend of solving political differences in the courts rather than through political and parliamentary means will become more usual in the coming years.

Grand Kuzhe Irek Mameshur: "Angiris has no right to intervene in Akhadic lands"
By: Florence Roberts
Published: Tolven, 1583
![[Image: 21743.jpg]](http://www.bogoslov.ru/data/2009/12/08/1234301007/21743.jpg)
A picture of Grand Kuzhe Irek Mameshur, taken shortly before his arrest in Kyrzbekistan in 1570.
Grand Kuzhe Irek Mameshur, a controversial Kyrzbekistani Akhadic cleric, has issued a rare recorded statement, calling for unity in defense of Akhadic faith and warning non-Akhadic governments to not interfer in the internal affairs of the Akhadic community. Mameshur, whose whereabouts are unknown, but some intelligence sources claim that he could be living somewhere in Northern Ustyara, is a controversial and divisive spiritual and religious figure.
Once considered a moderate Akhadic theologian, Mameshur is considered one of the known youngest people to be granted the religious title of Grand Kuzhe at an earliest age, 36, only five years after he was appointed Kuzhe of Tabul, eastern Kyrzbekistan. In 1559, he was arrested by the Arberian authorities, to be released in early 1561, when Akhadist forces took several provinces in eastern Kyrzbekistan. This experience is believed to have moved him toward more conservative ideas. Although he supported the short-lived Akhadic Republic of Kyrzbekistan (1562-1568), he did not play an active political role those years, rather dedicated to theological research. After the civil war ended in his country, he denounced the secular policies of the Democratic Republic of Kyrzbekistan, and he was arrested in 1570, for alleged extremist preaching. This is believed to have further radicalized him both politically and religiously. In late 1571, he was sentenced to prison for incitation to violence and apology of terrorist activity, and remained in prison until 1578. He left the country shortly after being released, and after a polemical exchange of opinions with other Akhadic theologians, in which Mameshur denounced the Akhadic Society as "a westernized organization" and called for a more authentic Akhadic lifestyle, he suddenly disappeared. In recent years, he has controversially approved on theological grounds the potential murder of Kyrzbekistani politicians such as Governor Domika Kongoli and members of the armed forces, Carpathian citizens, and Ga'bathi and Zargistani leaders.
In his recorded message, he warned Angiris about intervening in Dogukaran [an historical name for East Galasia, rarely used nowadays] which would be, he warned, "a historical mistake, which Angirisian citizens could pay for years...even generations", and an "unlawful act...a declaration of war against the Akhadic community". He called the Akhadic believers to remain together, both in eastern Galasia and anywhere in the world, showing unity and bravery in the defense of the Akhadic faith. He predicted that Cathedrium and Westmarch "will be burned to the ground" and Angirisian leaders "turned into dry ash" if the Angirisian government decided to follow its announced plans of attacking Akhadic forces in New Galasia.
He also announced that the had granted Makhur Izkhan, a Rojadavi Akhadic cleric from southeastern Eastmarch, the title of "Derebeyi bal-Sadik", an honorary religious title granted to Akhadic scholars, considered the previous step for being a candidate as Grand Kuzhe. Since 1579, when Grand Kuzhe Rîsep Gûndî was murdered in Eastmarch, which sparked the revolutionary movement which started the Galasian civil war, there has not been an officially recognized Grand Kuzhe in New Galasia, and therefore elevating Izkhan as the most important spiritual and religious scholar of the country. However, Izkhan, an ultra-conservative scholar who has denounced elections and secularism as "un-Akhadic" may be a divisive figure. It can't be a surprise that Mameshur's declaration was positively recognized by the Akhadic Council of Nova Tairal, only elevan days after the message was broadcast in social media, while Rojadavi representatives have not given any official response to it.
Grand Kuzhe Irek Mameshur ended his message with critical mentions to the Akhadic Society declaring that "anti-Akhadic campaigns in Bat'an lands" (a reference to Strathae) prove that "cooperation and coexistence between Northern lifestyles and Akhadic faith...is not possible...even when Akhadic teachings are reduced to un-Akhadic innovation". He also compared Strathaen and Eskkyan politicians with the Raastican zealots, in reference to the ancient and extinct Near East religion, which followed lynched to death Akhadic prophet Jorchek, causing the invasion of the Kingdom of Ashar by the Umirid Empire, afterwards all Raastican believers were either murdered or forced to convert to Akhadism.

Strathae: Kuzhe of MacCarmaig denounces Strathaen religious legislation
By: Florence Roberts
Published: Marth 1584
![[Image: ed4080ed9adbe3ddbedfe1622fcc16cc.jpg]](http://photo.ambebi.ge/img/artimages/image14/ed4080ed9adbe3ddbedfe1622fcc16cc.jpg)
Anton Bagration, Kuzhe of MacCarmaig.
In an unprecedent sermon last weekend, Anton Bagration, Kuzhe of MacCarmaig, preached against Strathaen religious legislation, declaring it "anti-Akhadic and unacceptable for any Akhadic believer". He declared that "the word of Akhad is holy, eternal, and perfect", while "the law of the land is always the imperfect product of men, moved by emotions, selfishness, petty hatred, and envy...Only Zokuk is able to lead man through the right path". He also declared that "the duty to respect the authority and the law ends when they violates the sacred code and clean spiritual conscience ordered by Akhad itself to the men of faith".
Recent legislation passed by Strathaen parliament, although it was moderately reformed compared to the initial draft proposed by Strathae's Party of Tradition, establishing a tough instance against conservative and traditionalist forms of religion, and banned religious preachers to hold community events or preaching in their own temples in case they are put into an "extremist list". Many in the Akhadic community in Strathae considered it unacceptable, including Bagration. He has declared that "secular authorities have no right to decide what happens on the temple and how the community organizes itself. It is a duty for every sakak to ignore a law which violates the holy kafim".
Anton Bagration, a natural born Ceribian citizen, came to Strathae in 1566. He has been the Kuzhe of MacCarmaig since 1569. He belongs to the Zokukyar denomination, which is the largest in the MacCarmaig's Akhadic community, so his words are likely to have an important impact on the community, as Akhadic clergy holds an important leadership position compared to other Akhadic denominations. Bagration is a well-known member of the Akhadic Society, and he is renown as an ultra-conservative scholar. Since 1580, he is also a member of the Akhadic Society's Akhadic Council, which plays an important role to define the organization's guidelines and objectives.
A few months ago, Bagration was put under investigation by Strathaen authorities for "extremist preaching". Although the investigation is currently ongoing and still inconclusive, some seen on this a paradox, as Bagration so far has had a rather more discreet role, mostly focused on his scholarly and clerical duties, in comparison with the Kuzhe of Kathmore, Shahram Nursî, who had a more active political role in his community, organizing peaceful civic disobedience campaigns and trying to reach and educate neighbors from other faiths about Akhadism. Bagration, on the other hand, had called the Akhadic community to focus on their spiritual duties and to solve their own problems by their own.

Eastern Galasia decisively supports independence in referendum
By: Florence Roberts
Published: Vintyr 1586
![[Image: CA0C3AD0-7A02-414A-8D56-07B0388A206B_cx0...3_r1_s.jpg]](https://gdb.voanews.com/CA0C3AD0-7A02-414A-8D56-07B0388A206B_cx0_cy5_cw0_w1023_r1_s.jpg)
A polling station in Nova Tairal
People living in Eastmarch, voted overwhelmingly in favour of independence for the eastern region yesterday referendum. The Rojadavi electoral commission said 69% of the six million voters who cast their ballots supported secession.
The referendum was only a few months after the end of the six-year Galasian civil war which erupted in 1579 and ended early this year. Since 1584, the western region has been invaded and occupied by the Angirisian Empire, while the eastern region has been ruled since late 1585 by a coalition of Rojadavi separatists and moderate Galasian parties.
Rojadavi leaders say that the "Yes" vote will give them a mandate to declare secession immediately and make true their dreams of a new independent nation in the Near East. Turnout was 80% among those eligible to vote, the electoral commission declared. However, the referendum was not without controversy as although refugees from the civil war were allowed to voted, the electoral law required them to prove that they were both citizens of New Galasia and that they had residence in Eastmarch at least for five years before 1579, something that as consequence of the chaos and destruction of the war not all them were able to prove. Most of the refugees established in Angiris and Ustyara, even if not all, were non-Akhadic and of Galasian or Angirisian ethnicity, and therefore more likely to vote against independence. But despite protests in Alsace and northern Eastmarch, it is not likely that they could do much to avoid the coming split of the country.
The vote was vehemently opposed in Drazen, the western region, even by Galasian politicians supportive of Angirisian occupation, but finally accepted as a compromise by Rojadavi separatists, who demanded their declaration of independence in Quartyr 1581 to be accepted and recognized.
Unless the Messanic-majority in Drazen, the eastern region of Eastmarch is dominated by the Rojadavi ethnic group, which made more than 50% of the population before the civil war. Most of the inhabitants of Eastmarch belong to the Akhadic faith, while Rojadavi are only 3% of the population in Drazen. Independence is still expected to become a complicated process but optimism in Sermîyan -where the unity government is located- makes many to believe that that the eastern region statehood has already become an unstoppable reality.
The electoral day was without major incidences in the largest towns, although nine people died after several violent incidents and 24 Rojadavi militiamen were killed by an Akhadic armed group in an unrelated attack nearby Ustyaran southeastern border. Two ministers of the coalition, both of Galasian ethnicity, resigned after the final result was announced.
Mazhar Qartel, Prime Minister of the Rojadavi coalition government is expected to officially proclaim the independence in the coming hours. Qartel -a formed Legion officer and one of the founders of the extinct "National Revolutionary Movement"- has promised to call for elections for a "Constituent Assembly" in the coming months in order to elect a new government and draft a constitution for the new state.
The Rojadavi separatists will have a huge challenge in the hands as, institutional and sectarian issues besides, the eastern region was completely devastated as consequence of years of war and its economy is considerably dependent of foreign aid. It is also unclear if the region will become a full-member of the international community soon, although Angiris government pledged to recognize the new state as it did other Near East countries such as Zargistan and A'Sir. Other governments, such as Kyrzbekistan, has declared to offer diplomatic recognition only after negotiations between the eastern region and Alsace are successfully finished.

Akhadist parties win first democratic elections in independent Rojadavistan
By: Anne Michaels
Published: Quartyr 1587
![[Image: resim2-580x300.jpg]](http://researchturkey.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/resim2-580x300.jpg)
About 5 million Rojadavistani voters were called to vote in the first democratic elections of the new nation.
The first democratic elections in Rojadavistan -as it is officially known the former Galasian eastern region of Eastmarch- confirm an overwhelming victory for Akhadist parties, which obtained more than 60% of the vote.
Voters were called to decide the composition of the 211 members of the Constituent Assembly, which be in charge to nominate a new national government and to draft a new constitution for the new state, which confirmed on late Alvan his sovereignty by a new declaration of independence, this time accepted by Alsace and with the recognition of the international community.
The Akhadist Social Conservative Party won the largest number of seats (69 of 211) under the Constituent Assembly's complex electoral system.
The Akhadic Front of Rojadavistan, another Akhadist political party, supported and endorsed by the Akhadic Society, was second, with 19.8% of the vote and 42 deputies.
The National Party, another Rojadavi nationalist party of more secular orientation was third, obtaining 12.4% of the vote and 26 deputies, a result worse than expected. The National Party was established by Prime Minister Mazhar Qartel and other former members of the National Revolutionary Movement. After the final result was announced, Qartel confirmed that he will renounce as Prime Minister of the Rojadavi Provisional Government, although it is unclear if he and his party will be part of the next national government.
The hardline Traditionalist Front, also known as Tevgera Bawerî movement, obtained 24 deputies. The Tevgera Bawerî movement is another Akhadist organization, but with a more radical orientation, aimed to establishing an Akhadic state in Rojadavistan as the Zokuk as main source of legislation.
The Galasian nationalists and Messanic parties, divided in different political parties and coalitions, obtained 40 members in the Constituent Assembly. Meanwhile, a small number of secular and liberal political parties were able to obtain a few deputies, but way behind the rest of political parties.
Under the electoral system, two-thirds of the seats were allocated to party list canddiates, and the remaining third are voted for directly in a runoff system, which caused delay at counting votes. However, the elections were mostly peaceful without major incidents.
The overall results mean that Akhadist parties control nearby two-thirds of the seats in the Constituent Assembly, though it is unclear what this will mean during the constitutional debates, as the three main Akhadist political parties are divided into important ideological (and maybe personal as well) differences.
The Constituent Assembly is due to sit for the first time on Quartyr 9.

Sa'ad Buhaghiar is well-known for being the owner of the Malban supermarket chain, based in Aricca.
Sa'ad Buhaghiar will become the first head of state of the Republic of Rojadavistan, after he was elected by the Constituent Assembly as president of the republic by 118 votes.
According to the Basic State Law of Rojadavistan, passed one month ago by the Constituent Assembly as a temporary constitutional text, Buhaghiar will serve as president for a two-year term. Under the Basic State Law, the president of the republic is mostly an honorary and nominal position, and it is the Prime Minister who leads the national government and direct the national policy of the state. The current Prime Minister is Serefxane Canê, a member of the Akhadist Social Conservative Party, currently leading a coalition of the Social Conservative Party and the Akhadic Front, along some independent members. However, the next president is expected to have an important role in the nation foreign policy and in the negotiations to draft a constitution for the new nation.
Sa'ad Buhaghiar, 62, is a businessman born in the southern city of Fershajgar. An ethnic Ghudki -a Near East ethnic group mostly inhabiting a contiguous area spanning southern Rojadavistan and northern Ustyara- was not politically active during the Galasian civil war, but he had served as advisor for the Ministry of Finance on industrial policy in recent months. His brother Celadet Alî Buhaghiar was elected to the Constituent Assembly as an independent in the southeastern district of Bakanê.
Buhaghiar has declared that his priority will be that the new constitution is passed as soon as possible, before the end of his term, along with strengthening Rojadavistan standing in the region and international community. He has already publically declared that he will propose to Rojadavistan to apply officially to the NETO alliance, which will be called to play a greater role in training the recently established Armed Forces of Rojadavistan.
After meeting with the Prime Minister, the Speaker of the Constituent Assembly, and the leaders of the parliamentary groups, President Buhaghiar is expected to start a number of diplomatic visits around the region and the world. It is already announced that he will visit A'Sir next month.
