A look into the Exiled Monarchy; Where is the Lhanamseng Dynasty now?

June 8th, 5716

When the Xsampan Revolution occured in 5317, the Royal and Serene Empire of Xsampa was quickly dissolved as fighting began between the northern Democratic Republic of Xsampa and the southern Serene Phodrang of Xsampa. Once a ceasefire came into place and the country was divided, the monarchy went into exile, as the North was, unsurprisingly, hostile to the monarchy, whilst the South believed that the monarchy had lost the right to rule, rejecting the monarchy aspect of the RSEX, and keeping the theocratic aspects. So, where did the monarchy go? To exile in Yingdala. But where are they now? Where is the Lhanamseng Dynasty now?

Well, they remain in exile in Yingdala (the exact location within Yingdala is undisclosed). But, the Lhanamseng's are particularly noteworthy in Exiled communities, particularly amongst the Restorations (both Absolutists and Constitutionalists), as it's not uncommon for the Lhanamseng's to support Restoration groups in what capacity they can (as the Lhanamseng Dynasty isn't exactly swimming in cash and largely kept afloat by donations from sympathetic groups). The current head of the Dynasty, one Kesang Lhanamseng, currently holds status as head of the dynasty, and while only in his 60s, does hold considerable sway amongst the Restorationist movement, both the Absolutists and Constitutionalists. Continuing what's arguably tradition at this point, that being denouncing the rightful legitimacy of the Democratic Republic, and claiming the title of "The Tsenpo of Xsampa", they are, by all accounts, irrelevant to the world beyond the Exile communities. Despite this, Kesang Lhanamseng does frequently visit Exile Communities in Kalistan and Yingdala. But because of how long it's been since a Lhanamseng has set foot on Xsampan soil, most things you'd expect of a monarchy, such as a court, have largely dissolved. Ultimately, a fate worthy of pity.

Whatever the case, the Lhanamseng's remain an interesting aspect of Xsampan history, but ultimately irrelevant as even Social Monarchist in Xsampa, most notably in the GNP, firmly opposed a Lhanamseng restoration, only endorsing the idea of allowing the Lhanamseng's to return if they give up their titles. Overall, most Xsampans are vaguely aware of the Lhanamseng's, and those who do know a lot often agree that the exiled Dynasty is simply irrelevant in every sense of the word. It's incredibly unlikely that the Lhanamseng's will ever return to the throne however, as socialism and republicanism retain strong support in Xsampa, and no country really recognizes a fading relic of the 5300s.

Modernist Exiles and their failed attempts at the "United Cantons of Xsampa"; An interesting concept, but ultimately a reactionary bourgeois concept.

The elusive "Golden Path" Exiles; Far right, and reactionaries indeed.
