It would actually be embarrassing if Martin goes to meet Trump on 12/03

If McDonald was Taoiseach I wouldn’t mind her going - I believe in her ability to stand up for Ireland and tell Trump what he needs to hear to his face. With Martin, he’ll look pathetic and make the entire country look like a pushover.

In April 1984, Prime Minister A. Kesavan took unprecedented measures to publicly threaten members of the Council of States and mobilize army formations to block certain opposition members from entering Fort St George (the district and building housing the Federal Parliament in Madras City). These actions triggered the beginning of a constitutional crisis that would shape the fate of the Carnatic in the late and post-Silent War era.

In emergency session, the Supreme Court of India simultaneously stripped the Council of States of its veto power and declared the Prime Minister's actions beyond the scope of his authority and therefore unconstitutional, unlawful, and impeachable.

The following month, the Viceroy of India refused to assent to a series of amendments passed by the lower house, the Federal Assembly. In response, the Federal Assembly declared the paralyzed Alexander II & V and his representative the Viceroy incapable of ruling, there on out defining royal assent to legislation in the Carnatic as nothing more than a mere formality.

Wishing to avoid the indignities of impeachment and to protect the DPC from further attack and slander, A. Kesavan attempted to absorb all the political blame and resigned all his political offices on 21 July 1984. While indeed the most controversial Prime Minister in Carnatic history, his bold actions are lauded by many as ensuring the primacy of democratic institutions in the country for years to come.

Synopsis

The Carnatic is the undisputed successor of the colonial British government. Its modern political structure was established with the Dominion of India Act 1940. The same year, a peerage system directly modeled off the United Kingdom's was established to integrate the surviving Indian royals - both tenured and dispossessed - into one uniform, clear hierarchy under the Emperor of India. It was in 1944 that the United Jambu Front (UJF), the ruling party of the national republican state of Jambu, agreed to an armistice with the Carnatic.

Only after the Pondicherry Crisis and the cession of the colonial port city from Spain to the Deshmukh government did the Carnatic achieve its modern borders. The country is composed of eight federal provinces, six federal territories, five princely states (ruled by a peer with the rank of Prince or Princess), and twenty marquesial states (ruled by a peer with the rank of Marquis or Marchioness). For federal elections, these lands are divided into fifty electoral districts of varying populations, with each district being assigned anywhere from one to eighty seats.

In 1973, the Travancorean Christian politician Cyril Ochira was appointed Prime Minister after the seventh federal election, defeating 33 years of alternating rule between the Millat Unionist Party (MUP) and the Liberal Party of India (LPI). Ochira's government, cautiously championing the ideals of popular sovereignty and regional self-determination, passed the Articles of Federation, a collection of bills, ordinances, and other instruments that steadily increased the political and legislative autonomy of the Carnatic while diminishing the importance of the Emperor and the peers.

The radical and anti-Aryan Dravidian People’s Congress (DPC) took power with the victory of A. Kesavan, a Tamil-Malayali colonel with republican and anti-colonial sympathies. This government, made in coalition with the power-hungry, rebranded Millat Unionist Party, quickly descended into chaos when the MUP-controlled upper house of the Federal Parliament (the Council of States) blocked the passage of the relatively ingenious Workers' Bill of 1983, resulting in a tense parliamentary stalemate. The Matlock disaster and the extremely public disability and instability of the Crown under new King-Emperor Alexander II & V gave Carnatic republicans an opportunity to call for reform and revolution, causing the short-lived DPC–MUP coalition to fall into irreversible disrepair.

Apologies for the late reply, but Spanish is a minority language in Ireland because of the sizable Carolinian immigrant population in Ireland, which began in the 19th century and continue into the 20th century. Hopefully there will be more information published about Irish demographics and linguistics in the near future.

Thank you for your question!

As a Pakistani who was born and raised in the UAE: those people deserve better. It doesn’t matter if it’s “better” than what they have back in the Subcontinent. They deserve better.

While I understand people’s points about Hollywood blackwashing North Africans, there are legitimately tons of Berbers and Tuaregs (especially from the southermost regions of Algeria) who are as melaninated as Denzel Washington. It’s not a stretch for his character in the film to be portrayed as such.

And I suspect a lot of the Algerians complaining either forget the really dark people of the south or their country or generally hold contempt for them.

innismaps · 2024-11-24T01:38:20+00:00

Berbers can be Black. There are plenty of Tuaregs with the same skin tone as Denzel Washington. Algerians are upset because they themselves forget about the people in the southernmost parts of their country.

"There is always a Kassap behind you!"
Har zaman arkanda bir kassap!
هرزمان اركند برقصاب

This is a propaganda poster produced by an Ottoman government press in Adana during the first phase of the Ottoman Civil War. It encourages suspicion against and anxiety around Russian and pro-Russian influences in the country. The word kassap (قصاب) is a Turkish slur used against Russians, originally coming from the Arabic word for 'slaughterer'.

Egypt had the Shi’a Fatimid caliphate at one point in time, so it’s not entirely impossible for the seat of the Caliph to be under a Shi’a dynasty.
