Synopsis: The Gyeoul United Party came into power in 1997 via a coupd de tat after the ivil war whih was led by the then General Jeon Luu Sou who declared marshal which ended the Tzong Dynasty in 1998 declaring the ‘2nd Republic of Gyeoul’ which in its current form is known as the Federal Republic of Gyeoul.
After the fall of the Tzong dynasty at the hands of the party’s original founder and current President Jeon Luu Sou, he consolidated his grip on the state by having the party’s paramilitary arm take over functions of the regular military and police after the deterioration of their traditional institutions which were under the jurisdiction of the royal family.
He party came into power and was more of a para military organisation whih was charged wih weeding out the communist influence in the north and are made up of veterins of the Gyeoul Civil War which lasted from 1991-1997. He Gyeoul was first seen as a neo-fascist party in its early days in the late 90’s, but has since rebranded itself as a big tent centre-centre right party appealing to non-ideological citizens
The party’s slogan is ‘Gyeoul united, now and forever’ it wishes to ensure this through a firm grip on the state through their seemingly omnipresence throughout the civil service and their monopolisation of the primary sector economy through the energy and mineral mining sector.
The party follows it unique ideology known simply as “cheol sangtae” (철상태)or iron state which means that through civic nationalism which unites the people regardless of race and class, shall utilise their abilities and resources for the good of the state, thus each citizen is held to believe they have a civic duty to the state through military service of 1-2 compulsory years of service where no-one is immune.
He party uses civic nationalism to eliminate ethnic and cultural divide of citizens so their first priority is towards the state n not their ethnic groups, and communitarianism to reinforce the idea that everyone is responsible for one another and act within the best interest of each other welfare. State capitalism is utilised mostly within the government trading and owning assets within the primary sector of the economy as a way for the government to generate income from alternative revenue streams to ease the tax burden of regular citizens, however private businesses are also permitted.
