Parliament dissolved as the military topples the legislature, leaders of the opposition imprisoned as Vikas declares martial law and suspends the constitution: restoring the empire's glory
Kamalata, Vascania
June 6th,5660. The clock had hit 6am when the police had mysteriously shutdown the boulevard connecting to parliament, it was only a few minutes after when a yoga instructor started her daily morning live scession that the world and the citizens of Vascania were horrified to see tanks, armored vehicles, and soldiers walking down the boulevard before taking over parliament. At 7 am, prime minister Vikas held a televised speech in which he declared martial law and the indefinite suspension of the Vascanian constitution because of "anti-imperial activities" and "sympathizers of the Xsampan plague" controlling parliament and stopping the government from passing any meaningful laws in the past 2 years. As such, parliament was dissolved as ordered by the emperor himself alongside the official arrest of all opposition leaders. In the matter of minutes, the headquarters of multiple parties were raided, the houses of their leader violated to allow for the military to arrest them an out them into their custody, dissolution notices for the opposition parties were sent as some people gathered in Kamalata to protest the coup but were quickly suppressed by the military due to a lack of unity and support within the population. The coup was celebrated in rural areas as many were dissatisfied by the opposition blocking parliament and many falling in line because of their worship of the emperor, this meant that only right wing parties weren't targeted by the new junta with some of their leaders having meetings with the emperor and prime minister in regards to reforming the Vascanian electoral system and creating a new big tent party known as the Vascania Block
