=History=

===The First Republic Era===

====17/2/2017-XX/X/2018====
On February 17, 2017, Simeon Nikolov, formed a country under the name of the "United Federation" , in this period, there were more countries, controlled separately, of which the most important was the Emporian Empire, where the two capitals of each country bordered each other, nothing much else is known about these countries, and when the great destruction occured, the countries and all other such big countries ceased to exist.

===The Second Republic Era===

====XX/X/2018-3/2/2022====

After the Collapse of the first federation, a new country arrived, "Lesia and Karduna" as a "United Republic", this was the period where there were the most advancements for the Republic, like Oblasts, international recognition, and joining the OEM on 10 September 2021 but, despite it losing 97% of its territory, it would still prosper, until the day of its first crumbling

===The Third Republic Era===
====3/2/2022-5/22/2022====

This is the final republic era, before the chaos ensued, Lesia and Karduna at this period was turning into what is has become now, a corrupt country that used voter fraud to try and get a lick of representation, although there was expansion of land and the now abandoned "Vision 2025" project, to make the country a better place, this was not very successful, as nobody planned to volunteer. the country had become a worse place than 5 years ago, but with the leader's co-operation in Melite and Belcity, it gained major allies. Also having annexed the two Fevlands , Zagoria, Stanimaka, the country had gained 300,000 m^2 of land, mostly made up of Stanimaka Oblast, at 226,000 m^2.

===The Provisional Government===

====5/22/2022-6/11/2022====

On May 23, it was approved by 5 of the 6 lesokardunian council members that a provisional government should be set up, this government was able to do nothing and it was replaced on June 11.

===Period of National Reclamation===

====6/11/2022-9/14/2022====

On June 11, leader Nikolov decides to take the matters into his own hands, and declares the National Reclamation Government, to try and reclaim the nation's former glory, under the Second Republic, this caused the republic to "go silent on June 25th", this is the only time in lesokardunian history, where Simeon Nikolov was not the president, Lavando took over control for 4 days until June 29, when Nikolov went back in power.

===Lesokardunian Second Government===

====9/14/2022-====

====7/6/2021-9/23/2022====
