That Time I Became A Dictator Of A Small Asian Communist Nation

And the Gay Communism has won by a landslide, furthering the Social Revolution decades ahead of any other nation! All hail our most fabulous Great Leader Wei Jungmin, may he eternally lead the people of The Most Glorious Democratic People's Republic of Guangchou, Light of All Nations, Defender of Humanity and Paradise on Earth!

I need two people to roll me a 1d2-1, please and thank you.

Purge post where you'll send innocents into the deathcamps to be tortured to death so you can retain power while you order mass arrests incoming.

Guangchou (Full name: The Most Glorious Democratic People's Republic of Guangchou, Light of All Nations, Defender of Humanity, and Paradise on Earth) is a nation-state situated south of the Japanese Main Island and east of Taiwan. It has existed since 1937 after Wei Cai and the Glorious Banner Of Humanity executed the Royal Family of the Queendom of Ghangchi and threw the British off the Island [Citation needed]. The nation is subdivided into 7 Districts and is officially an Autocratic Totalitarian Democracy led by a Great Leader chosen directly by the Citizenry. However, it has more in common with a Hereditary Autocratic Dictatorship.

As the parade continues, you make some small talk with those loyal Ministers and Generals you had appointed or held from the reign of your father. But, unfortunately, though you tried your best to gain as many allies as possible and ensure that as many people stayed as honest as possible, some among your father's confidants and those working for the nation proved to be disloyal. So it was with shame in your heart and anger in your mind that you signed their death warrants and initiated the purges needed to clean what purity remained.

(Pick those that will die. You pay/gain the cost/reward of those that survive the Purge. Remember: Story>Numbers)
-[] Progressives
Those who wish to advance the revolution in all aspects, be they economic, socially, or political. They see the fight and the revolution not as a done deal but an everlasting fight. Which could be harmful if you won't advance as they think you should.

-[] Technocrats
The drive to advance the world of science is not lost to your people or nation. You may not be the best in creating the cutting edge, but you certainly know your way around numbers and how to invent, as well as how to create innovative solutions with old technologies. Like that time you chucked a tiger at the British with a catapult! However, the Technocrats go a step further, seeing science as the only way to achieve a World Revolution.

-[] Wei-Ists
Those who hold to your father's strain of ideology of the communist way are called Wei-Ists. In you, they see a continuation of his policies from another hand and will try to guide you into that direction, subtly or by force if they must. But they are loyal, for now...

-[] Militarists
What is a nation that cannot defend itself from its enemies, one that will fall the moment a foreign boot falls onto its sovereign soil? These people stand, breathe, and die for a strong nation, ready to shield the people from all threats, within and without.

-[] Old Guard
When the revolution freed the people, these elder men and women stood by your father and the Glorious Banner of Humanity. They stood and guided your people as you upscaled your nation's industry, elevating it to what it is today. With them by your side, legitimacy will never be a problem. But they have seen things their way for a long time and may not like what changes your reign will bring.

Guangchou will, no; it must stand firm on its feet, alone if we must! We cannot allow ourselves to become mere slaves and puppets once more, and we mustn't fall into the complacency of having strong allies stand with us. They could fail, they could stab us in the back, and they could never pull the weight when we need them the most.

The people cry out their needs, and we answer with what they want to hear.

-[] Internationalists
We all need to work together to bring about the final revolution, be it with the silken glove of diplomacy or the iron fist of arms. Then, the people will free the world, know their power, and make the world a village as it was always meant to be.

-[] Isolationists
Man, fuck China, fuck the world, fuck everything. Guangchou is where we should put our focus and nowhere else.
(???)
-[] Industrialists
The people's strength rests upon their backs, lays within their hands, and is brought forth by their minds. In the crucible of the factory is our will made, with the casting of steel are our cries heard, and with the thunder of artillery will our might be felt.

To your surprise, you find out that Ja Ming adopted a son with her wife, an event you completely missed due to all of the work you had to do to hold onto power. It chafes at you that you missed that, but you put that aside to be happy for her. You ignore the disgusted stare of the Chinese Ambassador trying to maintain as much distance between him and "Them" as he can without appearing impolite. You'll make sure to annoy him for that later in the day, cause man, fuck that guy.

[](Middlefinger To The Chinese Ambassador - How?)
(He is lactose intolerant, hates the heat and is glad for the AC from the mainland, is extremely picky and exact about his tea, and hates the gays.)

And as the minute's tick by, and regiments of loyal soldiers march with perfect salutes and uniforms, as the tanks rumble forth with mighty cannons displayed and shining with pride, you begin to walk forwards to the microphones as the parade draws to a close. It is time for you to give your speech to the people, the one where you will tell them their future and how they will bring it forth.

[](Executive Order - You can make a law, change, or policy as your first act right here and now. It will be done, without question as the people heard you say it, but depending on which faction survived the Purge, you may have troubles on your hand depending on what you made.)

[The First 5-Year Plan]
(What is its name? The more ostentatious and fitting, the more I'll be inclined to give you a bonus for your first round.)
(What do you intend to achieve until 1975? (Turns are six months))
(On what do you put your focus? (+1 to the dice for four rounds))
(Do you give any concrete promises?)
(Do you make any concrete threats?)
(If you actually write the speech, I will give you (if your plan wins the vote) both a Threadmark and boni to actions mentioned.)
