Turkestani Forces | Federal Republic of Turkestan


 * Backstory: Beginning in late 2016, protests came up mainly in the cities of Almaty and Bishkek (but also Astana, Karagandy, Tashkent, Dushanbe, Bukhara, Samarkand, Urumqi, and Ashgabat to way lesser extents) to petition for a united Central Asia. The governments of Kazakhstan and the others would wave the protesters, but in 2017, they decided to group up into the Turkestani Forces, which advocate for the creation of a unified Turkestan that ranges from Turkmenistan to Mongolia.
 * Government: The government of the Federal Republic of Turkestan is set up, as a constitution is written, and a president and congress members are appointed provisionally. The government is bicameral (House of Senators and House of Delegates, though the House of Delegates will not be put into play until after Turkestan has a secure position) with a president who acts as head of state and actual leader. The president is called Timur Burkhanov. He was born in Tashkent, but his family moved around a lot from Bishkek to Atyrau to Astana and Karagandy, where he stayed for most of his live. He learned Kazakh and Russian, and he speaks a bit of Uzbek, but his family is ethnically Armenian. They were moved to Tashkent due to the USSR's policies. Burkhanov married his wife Anara, and they had to choose between staying in Karagandy or going to either Yerevan, Almaty, or Moscow. In the end, they chose to move to Almaty.
 * Central Asian War:
 * Operation Transnation: Turkestani Forces launch their campaign across the border in Kyrgyzstan. They begin to scale the mountains and move into Issyk Kul (the large lake) and other cities to the west of it like Tokmok, Orlovka, Kemin, and Boroldoy. They also plan out Operation Bishkek, which will be set into motion next summer, and it entails the siege and capturing of the capital of Kyrgyzstan.
 * Operation Soltüstik: Operation Soltüstik (lit. north) entails the Turkestani movement north and into Kazakhstan. The plan is for Turkestan to capture one relevant city each season inthis order: Kapchagay, Taldykorgan, Aksuyek, Sarkand, Saryshagan, Urzhar, Balkhlash, Ayagoz, Karagandy, and finally Astana. This season, they have taken Kapchagay, and with it they have captured all of the Almaty-Kapchagay Hwy, which is crucial in movement within Turkestan.


 * Military: The military currently stands at 83,193 total, and more and more people are conscripted. As soon as an area is captured, propaganda is set up and intertwined within the community to help raise the total army.
 * Economy: Currently there is no actual economy, but there are supply lines that help get supplies within the land. Women stay in the cities to do the work that men should be doing, but they are fighting.
 * Diplomacy:
 * Pakistani Fascist Union: Though Turkestan does not 100% approve of the fascist ideology, they still accept the alliance request because cooperation between the two can propel them to great heights.
 * Ottoman Imperial Forces: They accept the alliance request.
