Socialist South Abantia and the Volksrepubliek
"Related Articles: Presidency of Frederik Albers, De Staatsgriep and Volksrepubliek Zuid-Abanschie"In August 1945, Frederik Albers was voted in a second term as president of South Abantia on the Socialist Party's platform. At the time, the Red War had been happening across the world for about a year, and this brought a lot of tension from the conservative factions of South Abantia, who would rather either stay neutral in the conflict or join AMDA. Although Albers never endorsed either side of the war, this led to the Staatsgriep on March 14, 1948, led by the National Abantian People's Party and several hundred foreign marines. Wilbert Lomen, as de facto head of the party prior to the coup, was now named as the leader of South Abantia.
