Nadiya

In an outcome nothing short of historic, incumbent Tsarina Carolina has emerged victorious in Nadiya's first ever royal election by defeating her opponent Chaewoon of the royal house of Baek by securing 68,3% with a reported turnout of 87,2%.

Carolina's victory was mainly due to her successful branding as a commoner and open alignment with the All-Nadiyan Communist Party's Orthodox faction, also known as the Workers Vanguard Caucus, which has earned her the backing of trade unions and the People's Alliance for Nadiya with their coalition of working class voters and socialist intellectuals. 

Shortly after securing another term as Tsarina, Carolina announced in a press conference that she will be switching party allegiances from the Princesses and Tsarina Association of Nadiya to the All-Nadiyan Communist Party after the Party's leadership accepted her adhesion request. 

"To be honest, joining the communist was a no-brainer for me." She says, "During the campaign, and even before it, I was reading a lot of works written by Metz, Leonid, etc." Carolina continues, "I found myself asking, "why don't I spend my time toward pushing for the emancipation of the proletariat?", "Why does a simple family make me worthy to be the regent of a nation?", "When will I finally take the step toward making a communist utopia happen?". You know these type of stuff, logical if you ask me." 

While Carolina enjoys the flowers of another political affiliation, the PTAN finds itself in state of existential crisis as royals keep on leaving the party and Carolina's departure is seen by many as the final nail in the coffin of a party that once dominated pre-unification politics.
