       History: The nation was originally a bunch of separate states
       run by the richest and most powerful local landowners, circa
       1400-1750. When Ryudinia came to invade, the nation was
       embroiled in centuries of feudal conflict, and stood no chance
       against the invaders. After the recall of Ryundinian forces and
       the freedom given to the nation of Berstal, circa 1919, the
       richest merchant family hired a mercenary army to seize the
       capital city and take control, using their economic influence to
       keep regions in line. That government was formalized into the
       Berstalic Empire, but dissolved as soon as the first economic
       panic hit the nation about ten months later. The military then
       took over the government under martial law, and only gave power
       up at the face of a wave of peasant revolts, around the year
       1918. The merchant families agreed to bail out the remainder of
       the government if a republican form of government was installed.
       Their method allowed for the election of a Protector, a
       Sub-Protector, and a Domistar every 10 years. This system was
       designed to keep the members of the rich families in power,
       while giving the illusion of a democratic system to the
       populace. The Protector controls foreign policy, the aim of the
       nation as a whole, and serves as the chief commander for the
       military. The Sub-Protector controls all domestic policy,
       including financial and fiscal policy. The Domistar serves as
       the chief judge of the judicial system, as well as the chief
       executor of the nation. Eventually, the Protectorate government
       was installed, and the first elections concluded shortly before
       1920.
