Tasan Party


 * For other uses, see Tasan (disambiguation)

The Tasan Party, originally known as simply Tasan, was a political party in the Union State of Evillious. Founded as an anti-government political organization, it later evolved into an official party in the wake of the Leviantan Civil War and eventually gained control of politics in Elphegort.

Foundation
The Tasan organization was founded by Gammon Octo in opposition of the USE Dark Star Bureau's corrupt justice system following the trial and conviction of his elder brother Nyoze in EC 982. The following year, the organization began collaborating with Nemesis Sudou, a former assassin of the bureau's PN espionage force, to eliminate its master, Supreme Court Director Gallerian Marlon.

Rise To Power
Following the Leviantan Civil War in August of EC 983, the anti-government organization reestablished itself as the Tasan Party and began entering USE politics. As the years progressed, the Tasan Party began gaining power both locally and internationally. After Nemesis was released from prison in EC 989, the party invited her into the organization and elected her as its vice leader.

After party leader Gammon suddenly disappeared, Nemesis took over his position and flourished in popularity both domestically and abroad. In EC 993, the party secured control of the Elphegortean government and Nemesis herself became the Green Country's dictator. Afterward, Führer Nemesis ordered the invasion of the neighboring Lucifenian Republic, prompting the USE to expel Elphegort as a member state and declare war on the nation.

The Tasan government then forged military alliances with Beelzenia and Jakoku. In response to the USE's two-front offensive on Elphegort, Nemesis ordered the Elphegortean military to secretly develop a new weapon: Punishment. Following the successful test of the Punishment prototype in EC 998, the dictator unleashed the weapon upon both enemies and allies alike until Elphegort itself was destroyed, bringing an end to the Tasan Party and Third Period both.

Conceptualization and Origin

 * The Tasan Party is likely inspired by the Nazi Party, a political party that established a totalitarian government in Germany; Elphegort, where the Tasan Party took power, is inspired by Germany.
 * The Tasan Party's political leader, Nemesis Sudou, also bears resemblance to the Nazi Party's political leader, Adolf Hitler; both gained popularity following imprisonment as a result of rebelling against their respective governments and later established themselves as dictators of a totalitarian state under the title of "Führer."
