<br />
I, [subject name], do solemnly swear:<br />
<br />
To make prompt submission before the Union Standards, before the portraits of the [[Congress of Chryse]], and at the altars of the Highest Divinity.<br />
<br />
To bind my soul to the Community of the Realm, as part of the great Chain of Being linking this material world to the Celestial Temple above. <br />
<br />
To offer the votive first fruits of my labour to the goddess [[Agni]], forger of the [[Sword of Fire]] that scourges the enemies of Humanity.<br />
<br />
To dedicate the first kill and first meal of each new year in remembrance of the [[Benac]], ancestor who first claimed this continent for Humanity.<br />
<br />
To genuflect, prostrate, and sign this oath in my blood, binding my soul and those of my descendants in obedience to the laws of the Union-State.<br />
<br />
To submit my soul unto the higher powers, for there is no authority except that derived from the Highest Divinity and the Celestial Temple.<br />
<br />
To revere the Highest Divinity, to submit to the governing authorities of the Union-State appointed in Its name, and to oppose none who act on Its behalf.<br />
<br />
To perform all good works commanded by authority without question or resistance, lest I bring judgement upon myself. <br />
<br />
To fear the Highest Divinity and the executives who act in Its name, to associate not with the rebellious who lust for change.<br />
<br />
To keep the commandments of Union authority for the sake of submission to the Highest Divinity alone.<br />
<br />
To keep the faith of my ancestors, to honour their shrines and memory, while utterly forsaking the false idols of the Vanir, Germania, Sisera and the Baishens. <br />
<br />
To offer special protection and assistance to the Tribe of Levi, the Mobads, the Vicars and all who attain [[United Ecclesiastical Corporation of Benacia|Holy Orders as representatives of the true priesthood]]. <br />
<br />
To obey without question the commands of the Holy Kohanim, unless contrary to the law, and assist them in eradicating heresy, demon-consorters and those who refuse this Covenant.<br />

<div>{{Benacian Union article}}<br />
<br />
The '''External Service of the Benacian Union''' is the foreign relations arm of the [[Benacian Union]], responsible for managing the Union-State's diplomatic relations and interactions with foreign powers. It operates under the direction of the [[Commission for Foreign Affairs]] which is part of the [[High Presidium of the Benacian Union]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The External Service traces its origins back to the Bureau for Relations with Foreign Powers of [[Benacia Command]] during the early years of the Benacian Union's formation. As the Union-State expanded its influence, the need for a dedicated foreign relations body grew. <br />
<br />
In {{AN|1698}}, the [[Legatine College for Foreign Relations]] was established to oversee the Bureau and serve as the main agency handling foreign affairs. The External Service as it is known today emerged from this college in the early 1700s.<br />
<br />
==Organisation==<br />
The External Service consists of career diplomats and staff organised into various directorates and legations:<br />
<br />
*'''Commission for Foreign Affairs'''<br />
**Headed by the Commissioner for Foreign Affairs, a member of the High Presidium<br />
**Responsible for formulating and executing the Union's foreign policy<br />
**Oversees the entire External Service<br />
*'''Directorate for Relations with Foreign Powers'''<br />
**Manages the Union's diplomatic missions and legations abroad<br />
**Divided into geographic directorates like Keltian & Maritime, Cibolan, etc.<br />
*'''Legatine College for Foreign Relations'''<br />
**Training academy for diplomats and foreign service staff<br />
**Coordinates with other foreign relations agencies as needed<br />
<br />
===Legations===<br />
The External Service maintains a network of legations (diplomatic missions) in dozens of countries across [[Micras]]. <br />
<br />
In addition to the major legations, the External Service also operates missions and outposts across the [[Benacia]]n "near abroad" and other areas of strategic interest. Retiring senior military officers are often rewarded with these overseas sinecure appointments.<br />
<br />
Visa applications from citizens of other countries are processed through the Union's global network of legations overseen by the External Service.<br />
<br />
===Recruitment Requirements===<br />
<br />
As a civil public body, members of the External Service are obligated to be members of either:<br />
<br />
* The [[Nationalist and Humanist Party]] <br />
* The governing party of the realm of [[Ransenar]]<br />
<br />
Beyond this political affiliation requirement, prospective candidates must meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
====Background====<br />
* Birth within the territorial boundaries of the [[Benacian Union]] or the realms of the [[Raspur Pact]]<br />
* Lineage and ancestry records demonstrating the absence of [[Vanic]] taint for a minimum of five generations<br />
* Successful completion of the ideological examination issued by the [[Benacian Censorate]]<br />
* Security clearance by the [[Commission for the Panopticon|Panopticon Department]] after extensive background checks<br />

<br />
====Education====<br />
* Minimum of a bachelor's degree from the [[Benacian Academy]] or an [[Guild of Academicians|accredited]] institution of higher learning<br />
* Demonstrated proficiency in [[Praeta]] and [[Istvanistani]], the paramount official languages of the Union-State<br />
* Fluency in at least two other lawful languages <br />
* Preferred degree backgrounds include international relations, law, Humanist philosophy, and cultural studies of lesser races<br />
<br />
====Entrance Exam====<br />
Candidates meeting the initial background and education criteria must pass a grueling entrance examination hosted by the [[Legatine College for Foreign Relations]]. This exam tests:<br />
<br />
* Knowledge of Benacian history, laws, customs and [[Humanism|Humanist philosophy]]<br />
* Understanding of geopolitics, diplomacy and Union foreign policy objectives <br />
* Language proficiency in Praeta and other permissible languages<br />
* General knowledge across a variety of academic and cultural disciplines<br />
<br />
Only the top scoring candidates are offered admission to training at the Legatine College.<br />
<br />
====Training====<br />
Successful candidates undergo a minimum of two years of training covering:<br />
<br />
* Advanced language instruction<br />
* Diplomatic protocol and negotiation tactics<br />
* Host nation cultural studies and sensitivities <br />
* Self-defence, survival, and anti-interrogation techniques<br />
* Protection against memetic contagions when exposed to foreign and or heretical environments<br />
* Secure communications and cypher analysis<br />
* History of the External Service and Union foreign policy<br />
<br />
Upon graduating, new diplomats are assigned entry-level postings based on service needs and their individual qualifications.<br />
<br />
====Oath of Service====<br />
Finally, all External Service officers must take the [[Oath of Service to the Benacian Union]], swearing allegiance and fidelity to the goals and ideals of the Benacian Union in perpetuity.<br />
<br />
The rigorous recruitment and training process aims to produce highly skilled and utterly loyal diplomats to represent Benacian interests abroad. Any violation of ideological principles or the Oath can result in severe punishment or charges of high treason against the Union-State.<br />
<br />
==Pacts and Treaties==<br />
The External Service is responsible for negotiating and managing key treaties and diplomatic arrangements on behalf of the Benacian Union:<br />
<br />
*[[Raspur Pact]] - Guarantees freedom of movement/residency for Pact citizens<br />
*[[Treaty between Elwynn and Senya]] - Administered by the Senya legation <br />
*[[Benacian Union–Çakaristan Joint Communiqué]] (1717 AN) <br />
*Visa policy and entry requirements for foreign nationals<br />
<br />
It also oversees compliance with policies like the [[Benacian Quarantine System]] which prohibits contact with certain nations deemed to pose existential threats.<br />
<br />
==Coordination with Other Agencies== <br />
While directing foreign policy, the External Service coordinates closely with other agencies on matters of national security and intelligence:<br />
<br />
*[[Benacian Intelligence Community]] - Shares information and assessments<br />
*[[Benacian Security Council]] - Receives directives aligning diplomacy with security priorities <br />
*[[Main Directorate for Reconnaissance]] - Supports covert external operations<br />
*[[Honourable Company]] - Advances economic/commercial interests abroad<br />
<br />
This inter-agency cooperation ensures the External Service's diplomatic efforts remain synchronised with the Union's overarching strategic objectives in the international arena.</div>Continuatorhttps://micras.org/wiki/index.php?title=External_Service_of_the_Benacian_Union&diff=322823External Service of the Benacian Union2024-03-28T11:18:56Z<p>Continuator: /* Organisation */</p>

In {{AN|1698}}, the [[Legatine College for Foreign Relations]] was established to oversee the Bureau and serve as the main agency handling foreign affairs. The External Service as it is known today emerged from this college in the early 1700s.<br />
<br />
===Organisation===<br />
The External Service consists of career diplomats and staff organised into various directorates and legations:<br />
<br />
*'''Commission for Foreign Affairs'''<br />
**Headed by the Commissioner for Foreign Affairs, a member of the High Presidium<br />
**Responsible for formulating and executing the Union's foreign policy<br />
**Oversees the entire External Service<br />
*'''Directorate for Relations with Foreign Powers'''<br />
**Manages the Union's diplomatic missions and legations abroad<br />
**Divided into geographic directorates like Keltian & Maritime, Cibolan, etc.<br />
*'''Legatine College for Foreign Relations'''<br />
**Training academy for diplomats and foreign service staff<br />
**Coordinates with other foreign relations agencies as needed<br />
<br />
===Legations===<br />
The External Service maintains a network of legations (diplomatic missions) in dozens of countries across [[Micras]]. <br />
<br />
In addition to the major legations, the External Service also operates missions and outposts across the [[Benacia]]n "near abroad" and other areas of strategic interest. Retiring senior military officers are often rewarded with these overseas sinecure appointments.<br />
<br />
Visa applications from citizens of other countries are processed through the Union's global network of legations overseen by the External Service.<br />
<br />
===Pacts and Treaties===<br />
The External Service is responsible for negotiating and managing key treaties and diplomatic arrangements on behalf of the Benacian Union:<br />
<br />
*[[Raspur Pact]] - Guarantees freedom of movement/residency for Pact citizens<br />
*[[Treaty between Elwynn and Senya]] - Administered by the Senya legation <br />
*[[Benacian Union–Çakaristan Joint Communiqué]] (1717 AN) <br />
*Visa policy and entry requirements for foreign nationals<br />
<br />
It also oversees compliance with policies like the [[Benacian Quarantine System]] which prohibits contact with certain nations deemed to pose existential threats.<br />
<br />
===Coordination with Other Agencies=== <br />
While directing foreign policy, the External Service coordinates closely with other agencies on matters of national security and intelligence:<br />
<br />
*[[Benacian Intelligence Community]] - Shares information and assessments<br />
*[[Benacian Security Council]] - Receives directives aligning diplomacy with security priorities <br />
*[[Main Directorate for Reconnaissance]] - Supports covert external operations<br />
*[[Honourable Company]] - Advances economic/commercial interests abroad<br />
<br />
This inter-agency cooperation ensures the External Service's diplomatic efforts remain synchronised with the Union's overarching strategic objectives in the international arena.</div>Continuatorhttps://micras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Benacian_Intelligence_Community&diff=322819Benacian Intelligence Community2024-03-28T10:50:29Z<p>Continuator: </p>

<br />
The '''Benacian Intelligence Community''' (BIC) was established in {{AN|1730}} by the [[Benacian Security Council]] to unify and coordinate the intelligence gathering and analysis activities across the various agencies and services of the [[Benacian Union]]. Its creation centralised intelligence efforts previously dispersed among different organisations under a single overarching structure.<br />
<br />
==Mission==<br />
The primary mission of the BIC is to collect, analyse and disseminate intelligence information related to potential threats to the Benacian Union from foreign states, non-state actors, and internal subversive elements. It provides strategic intelligence assessments to the highest bodies of the Union government to aid in policy formulation and decision-making on national security matters.<br />
<br />
==Structure==<br />
The BIC comprises multiple member agencies and organisations that conduct intelligence activities in their respective areas. Key members include:<br />
<br />
===Commission for the Panopticon===<br />
Commonly known as the [[Commission for the Panopticon|Panopticon Department]], the Commission serves as the primary civilian intelligence and counterintelligence agency of the Benacian Union. Its capabilities include:<br />
<br />
* Domestic intelligence and surveillance (Office A - Internal Security)<br />
* Counterintelligence operations (Office C) <br />
* Signals intelligence (Office G - Cryptology & Linguistics)<br />
* Postal/communications monitoring (Office F - Postal Services)<br />
<br />
The Panopticon also manages the sophisticated "[[Panopticon Nexus|Panopticon System]]" - an interconnected mass surveillance network that monitors communications and public spaces across the Union.<br />
<br />
===Main Directorate for Reconnaissance===<br />
Established in {{AN|1728}}, the [[Main Directorate for Reconnaissance]] is the principal military intelligence arm of the BIC. It conducts:<br />
<br />
* Human intelligence (HUMINT) operations<br />
* Signal intelligence (SIGINT) gathering <br />
* Infiltration and sabotage missions<br />
* Long-range reconnaissance patrols<br />
* Target acquisition for military strikes<br />
<br />
The Directorate's special forces units like the [[Special Operations Brigade]] give it significant human intelligence and direct action capabilities throughout the "continental near-abroad".<br />
<br />
===Other Contributors===<br />
* [[Honourable Company]] - Corporate intelligence on economic/financial matters<br />
* [[Benacian Union Defence Force]] - Tactical military intelligence <br />
* [[Benacian Censorate]] - Monitoring of public sentiments and loyalty<br />
<br />
==Oversight==<br />
The activities of the BIC and its constituent elements are overseen by the [[Benacian Security Council]], which is chaired by the [[Szodan of Benacia]]. The Council provides strategic guidance, sets priorities, and ensures intelligence operations align with the Union's national security policies.<br />
<br />
The three main intelligence agencies - Panopticon Department, Main Directorate for Reconnaissance, and the Honourable Company's intelligencers - maintain representation on the Security Council to facilitate coordination.<br />
<br />
==Domestic Surveillance==<br />
A key focus area for the BIC is monitoring the Benacian population through the capabilities of the Panopticon Department and the Censorate. Tools like the "[[Commission for the Panopticon#The Digital Yoke|Digital Yoke]]" biometric monitoring system and the Societal Compliance Utility Matrix allow unprecedented levels of tracking and social control within the Union's borders.<br />
<br />
==Foreign Intelligence==<br />
Outward facing intelligence gathering is spearheaded by the Main Directorate for Reconnaissance and supplemented by the Panopticon's expansive signals intelligence infrastructure. Key targets include the Union's immediate neighbours, particularly [[Shireroth]], as well as other great powers.<br />
<br />
Benacian subjects overseas are obliged to remain available to the External Relations Service of the Benacian Union for information gathering purposes, whilst those returning from abroad are also routinely debriefed by the Censorate.</div>Continuatorhttps://micras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Benacian_Intelligence_Community&diff=322818Benacian Intelligence Community2024-03-28T10:49:43Z<p>Continuator: Created page with "{{Benacian Union article}} The '''Benacian Intelligence Community''' (BIC) was established in 1730 AN by the Benacian Security Council to unify and coordinate the intelligence gathering and analysis activities across the various agencies and services of the Benacian Union.

{{Main|Commission for Foreign Affairs}}{{see also|External Service of the Benacian Union}}<br />
Matters pertaining to the foreign relations of [[Elluenuueq]] and the [[Unified Governorates]] are overseen by the External Service of the Benacian Union, which was organised and administered by the Bureau for Relations with Foreign Powers of [[Benacia Command]] prior to its transfer to the responsibility of the Legatine College for Foreign Relations, reporting in turn to the Commission for Foreign Affairs under the High Presidium.<br />
<br />
It has become customary to reward a retiring ''Salbnan'' (Brigadier) of the Black Legions, or its successor the Benacian Union Defence Force, with an overseas posting. These sinecure appointments are for life, held until the death of the individual or the demise of the receiving nation, whichever occurs the sooner. <br />
<br />
The Main Directorate for Prohibited Contact States, established in [[Merensk]] on 13.XV.{{AN|1702}}, formerly the Bassarid section desk under the Keltian & Maritime Directorate, was disestablished on 21.XIV.{{AN|1727}} following the liquidation of [[Theogiorick]]. The sole officeholder during that period, the legate Ziemke Traktuyev, would receive the gracious permission of the High Presidium to retire to [[Cedarwood Hall]] in comfort and security. His name would also be presented to the [[Congress of Chryse]] for a vote of praise during its 1728 session.<br />

===Visa policy===<br />
====Entry visas====<br />
Visas are to be applied for in the majority of instances before travel is attempted. Visas are divided into Tourist (30 days), Business (90 days), and Student (180 days) categories. Visas are to be applied for via the nearest Benacian Union legation or oversea office reachable by the applicant. Successful applications require a face to face interview and the payment of an individually negotiated travel bond prior to the issuing of a visa stamp. Travel bonds are to be paid in [[Craitish Cräite]] and are refundable upon departure. Visa applications from countries with Daemonic or Vanic associations will customarily be refused, with the exception of diplomatic envoys accredited to the [[Micras Treaty Organisation]]. Citizens of [[Raspur Pact]] countries are guaranteed freedom of movement and residency rights within the Benacian Union. Citizens of [[Xaiville Convention]] member-states receive a general visa valid for ninety-days on arrival. Five day shore-leave visas are available for mariners of third party nations, excepting the citizens of countries with Daemonic or Vanic associations, whose vessels are anchored in a Benacian port whilst unloading cargo. Shore-leave visas are issuable at the sole discretion of the bailiwick's port authority and subject to their own schedule of rates.<br />
<br />
Following the [[Sanaman Civil War]], [[Sanama]]n nationals were subjected to the rite of exorcism when visiting the [[Benacian Union]] as their regime had fallen to the daemonic cult of egalitarianism after leaving the [[Raspur Pact]]. This practice appears to have fallen into abeyance, albeit without formal guidance to that effect.<br />
<br />
Applications from USSO member states were subject to additional vetting and required a 100,000 Cräite assurance bond payable before arrival. With the effective demise of the USSO, this measure, along with prohibitions against USSO member state nationals receiving "shore-leave visas", were rescinded in {{AN|1716}}.<br />
<br />
====Exit visas====<br />
<br />
Exit visas will normally only be granted to subjects of the Benacian Union who are engaged in the service of [[Benacia Command]], the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], the [[Honourable Company]], the [[Nationalist and Humanist Party]], or the [[Union Defence Force]], for a period of 180 days. As of {{AN|1707}} those meritorious subjects of the aforementioned organisations, below the equivalent rank of tribune, must attain a letter of recommendation from their commanding officer, and provide a cash bond of one hundred sovereigns, in order to receive an exit visa if their intention is to travel in a private capacity.<br />
<br />
Other subjects of the Benacian Union may receive an exit visa validated for a period of 90 days if sponsored by one of the aforementioned organisations. Applicants must consent to an pre-exit interview with the [[Guild of Magisters-Carnifex]], during which the negotiation of a suitable travel bond payable in [[Benacian sovereign]]s must be agreed, nominate a family member to serve as hostage during the period of their absence, and undertake to cooperate fully with the External Service for duration of their time abroad. Upon return to the territories of the Benacian Union the subject must report to the Magister-Carnifex for their bailiwick of residence, within 48 hours of arrival, for debriefing.<br />
<br />
On account of their rebellion, no subject resident in [[Amokolia]] or [[Upper Elwynn]] may leave their bailiwick of residence, and none may travel abroad under any circumstances.<br />
<br />
Travel to [[Bassarid]], Daemonic or Vanic influenced countries is absolutely prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism may be performed on any suspected of violating this injunction during their time abroad. Exceptions may only be granted to members of the External Service on the expressed permission of the High Presidium. The prohibition against contact with non-Bassarid members of the former [[USSO]] was quietly rescinded in {{AN|1715}}, with its successor entity, the [[Collective Security Association]], benefiting from a far lower perception of threat on the part of the Commission for Foreign Affairs.<br />
<br />
====Illegal border transits====<br />
To attempt to exit or enter the territory of a member state of the Benacian Union without the sanction or permission of authority is a crime against the Union which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the [[Benacian Labour Reserve]].<br />
<br />
All forms of travel, trade, and correspondence with the [[Phineonesian Confederation]] are prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism shall be applied for any reported encounters.<br />
<br />
With effect from XIII.1722, all Benacian Subjects in [[Hurmu]] must report their location to the Legation in [[Ghawlama]] every forty-eight hours. All travel into the [[condominium]]s of Hurmu and the Phineonesian Confederation is prohibited with immediate effect, and shall constitute a crime against the Union-State which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the Benacian Labour Reserve.<br />

===Benacian Security Council===<br />
<br />
The Benacian Security Council (BSC) was established by the decision of the [[High Presidium of the Benacian Union]] in {{AN|1701}} to develop recommendations to implement the Benacian Union's policy on defence, citizenship rights, security, the pace and scope of economic reforms, economic and environmental security and hazards, coping with natural disasters and other emergencies, to ensure stability and legal order in Benacian society.<br />
<br />
Membership of the BSC would consist of the [[Szodan of Benacia]], the Commander-in-Chief of the [[Benacia Command|Benacian Continental Theatre Command]], the [[Commission for War|Commissioner for War]], and the [[Commission for Foreign Affairs|Commissioner for Foreign Affairs]], who would be joined in addition by the President of the General Staff Council of the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], the [[Lord High Censor]], the Director of Benacian Operations for the [[Honourable Company]], and the [[Commission for the Sacred Treasury|Commissioner for the Sacred Treasury]]. In addition to these permanent members a General Secretary would also be appointed, with responsibility for administering a small supporting secretariat.<br />
<br />
Additional subject matter experts, as well as representatives of the civil executives of the realms of the Union-State, could be called upon to attend meetings of the BSC on a case by case basis as required.<br />
<br />
==Economic affairs==<br />
<br />
{{main|Commission for the Sacred Treasury}}<br />
<br />
==Foreign relations==<br />
{{Main|Commission for Foreign Affairs}}{{see also|External Service of the Benacian Union}}<br />
Matters pertaining to the foreign relations of [[Elluenuueq]] and the [[Unified Governorates]] are overseen by the External Service of the Benacian Union, which was organised and administered by the Bureau for Relations with Foreign Powers of [[Benacia Command]] prior to its transfer to the responsibility of the Legatine College for Foreign Relations, reporting in turn to the Commission for Foreign Affairs under the High Presidium.<br />
<br />
It has become customary to reward a retiring ''Salbnan'' (Brigadier) of the Black Legions, or its successor the Benacian Union Defence Force, with an overseas posting. These sinecure appointments are for life, held until the death of the individual or the demise of the receiving nation, whichever occurs the sooner. <br />
<br />
The Main Directorate for Prohibited Contact States, established in [[Merensk]] on 13.XV.{{AN|1702}}, formerly the Bassarid section desk under the Keltian & Maritime Directorate, was disestablished on 21.XIV.{{AN|1727}} following the liquidation of [[Theogiorick]]. The sole officeholder during that period, the legate Ziemke Traktuyev, would receive the gracious permission of the High Presidium to retire to [[Cedarwood Hall]] in comfort and security. His name would also be presented to the [[Congress of Chryse]] for a vote of praise during its 1728 session.<br />

Travel to [[Bassarid]], Daemonic or Vanic influenced countries is absolutely prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism may be performed on any suspected of violating this injunction during their time abroad. Exceptions may only be granted to members of the External Service on the expressed permission of the High Presidium. The prohibition against contact with non-Bassarid members of the former [[USSO]] was quietly rescinded in {{AN|1715}}, with its successor entity, the [[Collective Security Association]], benefiting from a far lower perception of threat on the part of the Commission for Foreign Affairs.<br />
<br />
====Illegal border transits====<br />
To attempt to exit or enter the territory of a member state of the Benacian Union without the sanction or permission of authority is a crime against the Union which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the [[Benacian Labour Reserve]].<br />
<br />
All forms of travel, trade, and correspondence with the [[Phineonesian Confederation]] are prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism shall be applied for any reported encounters.<br />
<br />
With effect from XIII.1722, all Benacian Subjects in [[Hurmu]] must report their location to the Legation in [[Ghawlama]] every forty-eight hours. All travel into the [[condominium]]s of Hurmu and the Phineonesian Confederation is prohibited with immediate effect, and shall constitute a crime against the Union-State which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the Benacian Labour Reserve.<br />

<br />
===Benacian Security Council===<br />
<br />
The Benacian Security Council (BSC) was established by the decision of the [[High Presidium of the Benacian Union]] in {{AN|1701}} to develop recommendations to implement the Benacian Union's policy on defence, citizenship rights, security, the pace and scope of economic reforms, economic and environmental security and hazards, coping with natural disasters and other emergencies, to ensure stability and legal order in Benacian society.<br />
<br />
Membership of the BSC would consist of the [[Szodan of Benacia]], the Commander-in-Chief of the [[Benacia Command|Benacian Continental Theatre Command]], the Commissioner for Defence, and the Commissioner for Foreign Affairs, who would be joined in addition by the President of the General Staff Council of the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], the Grand Magister of the [[Guild of Magisters-Carnifex]], the Director of Benacian Operations for the [[Honourable Company]], and the Grand Magister of the [[Commission for the Sacred Treasury]]. In addition to these permanent members a General Secretary would also be appointed, with responsibility for administering a small supporting secretariat, and additional subject matter experts, as well as representatives of the civil executives of the realms of the Union-State, could be called upon to attend meetings of the BSC on a case by case basis as required.<br />
<br />
==Economic affairs==<br />
<br />
{{main|Commission for the Sacred Treasury}}<br />
<br />
==Foreign relations==<br />
{{Main|Commission for Foreign Affairs}}{{see also|External Service of the Benacian Union}}<br />
Matters pertaining to the foreign relations of [[Elluenuueq]] and the [[Unified Governorates]] are overseen by the External Service of the Benacian Union, which was organised and administered by the Bureau for Relations with Foreign Powers of [[Benacia Command]] prior to its transfer to the responsibility of the Legatine College for Foreign Relations, reporting in turn to the Commission for Foreign Affairs under the High Presidium.<br />
<br />
It has become customary to reward a retiring ''Salbnan'' (Brigadier) of the Black Legions, or its successor the Benacian Union Defence Force, with an overseas posting. These sinecure appointments are for life, held until the death of the individual or the demise of the receiving nation, whichever occurs the sooner. <br />
<br />
The Main Directorate for Prohibited Contact States, established in [[Merensk]] on 13.XV.{{AN|1702}}, formerly the Bassarid section desk under the Keltian & Maritime Directorate, was disestablished on 21.XIV.{{AN|1727}} following the liquidation of [[Theogiorick]]. The sole officeholder during that period, the legate Ziemke Traktuyev, would receive the gracious permission of the High Presidium to retire to [[Cedarwood Hall]] in comfort and security. His name would also be presented to the [[Congress of Chryse]] for a vote of praise during its 1728 session.<br />

===Visa policy===<br />
====Entry visas====<br />
Visas are to be applied for in the majority of instances before travel is attempted. Visas are divided into Tourist (30 days), Business (90 days), and Student (180 days) categories. Visas are to be applied for via the nearest Benacian Union legation or oversea office reachable by the applicant. Successful applications require a face to face interview and the payment of an individually negotiated travel bond prior to the issuing of a visa stamp. Travel bonds are to be paid in [[Craitish Cräite]] and are refundable upon departure. Visa applications from countries with Daemonic or Vanic associations will customarily be refused, with the exception of diplomatic envoys accredited to the [[Micras Treaty Organisation]]. Citizens of [[Raspur Pact]] countries are guaranteed freedom of movement and residency rights within the Benacian Union. Citizens of [[Xaiville Convention]] member-states receive a general visa valid for ninety-days on arrival. Five day shore-leave visas are available for mariners of third party nations, excepting the citizens of countries with Daemonic or Vanic associations, whose vessels are anchored in a Benacian port whilst unloading cargo. Shore-leave visas are issuable at the sole discretion of the bailiwick's port authority and subject to their own schedule of rates.<br />
<br />
Following the [[Sanaman Civil War]], [[Sanama]]n nationals were subjected to the rite of exorcism when visiting the [[Benacian Union]] as their regime had fallen to the daemonic cult of egalitarianism after leaving the [[Raspur Pact]]. This practice appears to have fallen into abeyance, albeit without formal guidance to that effect.<br />
<br />
Applications from USSO member states were subject to additional vetting and required a 100,000 Cräite assurance bond payable before arrival. With the effective demise of the USSO, this measure, along with prohibitions against USSO member state nationals receiving "shore-leave visas", were rescinded in {{AN|1716}}.<br />
<br />
====Exit visas====<br />
<br />
Exit visas will normally only be granted to subjects of the Benacian Union who are engaged in the service of [[Benacia Command]], the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], the [[Honourable Company]], the [[Nationalist and Humanist Party]], or the [[Union Defence Force]], for a period of 180 days. As of {{AN|1707}} those meritorious subjects of the aforementioned organisations, below the equivalent rank of tribune, must attain a letter of recommendation from their commanding officer, and provide a cash bond of one hundred sovereigns, in order to receive an exit visa if their intention is to travel in a private capacity.<br />
<br />
Other subjects of the Benacian Union may receive an exit visa validated for a period of 90 days if sponsored by one of the aforementioned organisations. Applicants must consent to an pre-exit interview with the [[Guild of Magisters-Carnifex]], during which the negotiation of a suitable travel bond payable in [[Benacian sovereign]]s must be agreed, nominate a family member to serve as hostage during the period of their absence, and undertake to cooperate fully with the External Service for duration of their time abroad. Upon return to the territories of the Benacian Union the subject must report to the Magister-Carnifex for their bailiwick of residence, within 48 hours of arrival, for debriefing.<br />
<br />
On account of their rebellion, no subject resident in [[Amokolia]] or [[Upper Elwynn]] may leave their bailiwick of residence, and none may travel abroad under any circumstances.<br />
<br />
Travel to [[Bassarid]], Daemonic or Vanic influenced countries is absolutely prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism may be performed on any suspected of violating this injunction during their time abroad. Exceptions may only be granted to members of the External Service on the expressed permission of the High Presidium. The prohibition against contact with non-Bassarid members of the former [[USSO]] was quietly rescinded in {{AN|1715}}, with its successor entity, the [[Collective Security Association]], benefiting from a far lower perception of threat on the part of the Commission for Foreign Affairs.<br />
<br />
====Illegal border transits====<br />
To attempt to exit or enter the territory of a member state of the Benacian Union without the sanction or permission of authority is a crime against the Union which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the [[Benacian Labour Reserve]].<br />
<br />
All forms of travel, trade, and correspondence with the [[Phineonesian Confederation]] are prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism shall be applied for any reported encounters.<br />
<br />
With effect from XIII.1722, all Benacian Subjects in [[Hurmu]] must report their location to the Legation in [[Ghawlama]] every forty-eight hours. All travel into the [[condominium]]s of Hurmu and the Phineonesian Confederation is prohibited with immediate effect, and shall constitute a crime against the Union-State which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the Benacian Labour Reserve.<br />

===Benacian Security Council===<br />
<br />
The Benacian Security Council (BSC) was established by the decision of the [[High Presidium of the Benacian Union]] in {{AN|1701}} to develop recommendations to implement the Benacian Union's policy on defence, citizenship rights, security, the pace and scope of economic reforms, economic and environmental security and hazards, coping with natural disasters and other emergencies, to ensure stability and legal order in Benacian society.<br />
<br />
Membership of the BSC would consist of the [[Szodan of Benacia]], the Commander-in-Chief of the [[Benacia Command|Benacian Continental Theatre Command]], the Commissioner for Defence, and the Commissioner for Foreign Affairs, who would be joined in addition by the President of the General Staff Council of the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], the Grand Magister of the [[Guild of Magisters-Carnifex]], the Director of Benacian Operations for the [[Honourable Company]], and the Grand Magister of the [[Commission of the Sacred Treasury]]. In addition to these permanent members a General Secretary would also be appointed, with responsibility for administering a small supporting secretariat, and additional subject matter experts, as well as representatives of the civil executives of the realms of the Union-State, could be called upon to attend meetings of the BSC on a case by case basis as required.<br />

{{Main|Commission for Foreign Affairs}}{{see also|External Service of the Benacian Union}}<br />
Matters pertaining to the foreign relations of [[Elluenuueq]] and the [[Unified Governorates]] are overseen by the External Service of the Benacian Union, which was organised and administered by the Bureau for Relations with Foreign Powers of [[Benacia Command]] prior to its transfer to the responsibility of the Legatine College for Foreign Relations, reporting in turn to the Commission for Foreign Affairs under the High Presidium.<br />
<br />
It has become customary to reward a retiring ''Salbnan'' (Brigadier) of the Black Legions, or its successor the Benacian Union Defence Force, with an overseas posting. These sinecure appointments are for life, held until the death of the individual or the demise of the receiving nation, whichever occurs the sooner. <br />
<br />
The Main Directorate for Prohibited Contact States, established in [[Merensk]] on 13.XV.{{AN|1702}}, formerly the Bassarid section desk under the Keltian & Maritime Directorate, was disestablished on 21.XIV.{{AN|1727}} following the liquidation of [[Theogiorick]]. The sole officeholder during that period, the legate Ziemke Traktuyev, would receive the gracious permission of the High Presidium to retire to [[Cedarwood Hall]] in comfort and security. His name would also be presented to the [[Congress of Chryse]] for a vote of praise during its 1728 session.<br />

===Visa policy===<br />
====Entry visas====<br />
Visas are to be applied for in the majority of instances before travel is attempted. Visas are divided into Tourist (30 days), Business (90 days), and Student (180 days) categories. Visas are to be applied for via the nearest Benacian Union legation or oversea office reachable by the applicant. Successful applications require a face to face interview and the payment of an individually negotiated travel bond prior to the issuing of a visa stamp. Travel bonds are to be paid in [[Craitish Cräite]] and are refundable upon departure. Visa applications from countries with Daemonic or Vanic associations will customarily be refused, with the exception of diplomatic envoys accredited to the [[Micras Treaty Organisation]]. Citizens of [[Raspur Pact]] countries are guaranteed freedom of movement and residency rights within the Benacian Union. Citizens of [[Xaiville Convention]] member-states receive a general visa valid for ninety-days on arrival. Five day shore-leave visas are available for mariners of third party nations, excepting the citizens of countries with Daemonic or Vanic associations, whose vessels are anchored in a Benacian port whilst unloading cargo. Shore-leave visas are issuable at the sole discretion of the bailiwick's port authority and subject to their own schedule of rates.<br />
<br />
Following the [[Sanaman Civil War]], [[Sanama]]n nationals were subjected to the rite of exorcism when visiting the [[Benacian Union]] as their regime had fallen to the daemonic cult of egalitarianism after leaving the [[Raspur Pact]]. This practice appears to have fallen into abeyance, albeit without formal guidance to that effect.<br />
<br />
Applications from USSO member states were subject to additional vetting and required a 100,000 Cräite assurance bond payable before arrival. With the effective demise of the USSO, this measure, along with prohibitions against USSO member state nationals receiving "shore-leave visas", were rescinded in {{AN|1716}}.<br />
<br />
====Exit visas====<br />
<br />
Exit visas will normally only be granted to subjects of the Benacian Union who are engaged in the service of [[Benacia Command]], the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], the [[Honourable Company]], the [[Nationalist and Humanist Party]], or the [[Union Defence Force]], for a period of 180 days. As of {{AN|1707}} those meritorious subjects of the aforementioned organisations, below the equivalent rank of tribune, must attain a letter of recommendation from their commanding officer, and provide a cash bond of one hundred sovereigns, in order to receive an exit visa if their intention is to travel in a private capacity.<br />
<br />
Other subjects of the Benacian Union may receive an exit visa validated for a period of 90 days if sponsored by one of the aforementioned organisations. Applicants must consent to an pre-exit interview with the [[Guild of Magisters-Carnifex]], during which the negotiation of a suitable travel bond payable in [[Benacian sovereign]]s must be agreed, nominate a family member to serve as hostage during the period of their absence, and undertake to cooperate fully with the External Service for duration of their time abroad. Upon return to the territories of the Benacian Union the subject must report to the Magister-Carnifex for their bailiwick of residence, within 48 hours of arrival, for debriefing.<br />
<br />
On account of their rebellion, no subject resident in [[Amokolia]] or [[Upper Elwynn]] may leave their bailiwick of residence, and none may travel abroad under any circumstances.<br />
<br />
Travel to [[Bassarid]], Daemonic or Vanic influenced countries is absolutely prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism may be performed on any suspected of violating this injunction during their time abroad. Exceptions may only be granted to members of the External Service on the expressed permission of the High Presidium. The prohibition against contact with non-Bassarid members of the former [[USSO]] was quietly rescinded in {{AN|1715}}, with its successor entity, the [[Collective Security Association]], benefiting from a far lower perception of threat on the part of the Commission for Foreign Affairs.<br />
<br />
====Illegal border transits====<br />
To attempt to exit or enter the territory of a member state of the Benacian Union without the sanction or permission of authority is a crime against the Union which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the [[Benacian Labour Reserve]].<br />
<br />
All forms of travel, trade, and correspondence with the [[Phineonesian Confederation]] are prohibited. The Rite of Exorcism shall be applied for any reported encounters.<br />
<br />
With effect from XIII.1722, all Benacian Subjects in [[Hurmu]] must report their location to the Legation in [[Ghawlama]] every forty-eight hours. All travel into the [[condominium]]s of Hurmu and the Phineonesian Confederation is prohibited with immediate effect, and shall constitute a crime against the Union-State which may either be punished upon discovery through summary execution, or through of a period of a minimum of 25 years of bonded servitude in the Benacian Labour Reserve.<br />

<br />
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''', a subordinate body of the [[Legatine College for Military and Naval Affairs]] established in {{AN|1728}} within the [[Commission for War]], was a quasi-autonomous paramilitary agency tasked with political, military, economic and technological intelligence-gathering, as well as with seizing operationally important targets by way of sabotage and infiltration. The operational area of the {{PAGENAME}} was defined as the "[[Benacia|continental]] near-abroad of the [[Benacian Union]]".<br />
<br />
==Foundation==<br />
<br />
The designated legatine director for the {{PAGENAME}}, Hendrik van Kepoek, was authorised by the Commission for War to recruit one hundred officers from the ranks of the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]], as well as from its auxiliary and reserve forces, including the State Guard formations raised by the realms of the Union-State.<br />
<br />
Officers selected for the {{PAGENAME}}, were required to be ideologically committed [[N&H]] cadre members, preferably with [[Vanguard Division]] experience, who had previously lived abroad and attained proficiency in [[praeta]] or [[Sanaman language|Sanaman]], as well as being familiar with the way of life in the area of operations where they were deployed.<br />
<br />
Training for the officers chosen to transfer into the {{PAGENAME}} consisted of an initial twenty-week course of instruction conducted at {{Tooltip|Berht Klarænst|Fort Clarence}}. This training would focus on reconnaissance, swimming, hand-to-hand combat, demolitions, marksmanship, conventional infantry tactics, and other specialised training including familiarisation with common [[Kalgachia|Kalgachi]], [[Sanama]]n, and [[Shirerithian]] vehicle types.<br />
<br />
For those who completed the initial training process, comprising forty-two out of the initial hundred, were promoted to tribunal rank. The remainder were returned to their units or else, in one instance, hospitalised.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], the [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], the [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

}}'''Alduria HS (AV Alduria),''' legally the '''Punta Santiago-Beauharnais Rail Link''' '''(EFPSB)''' is a 320 km (200 mi) high-speed railway linking [[Punta Santiago]], [[Narbonne]], and [[Beauharnais]]. It was the second high-speed line in [[Nouvelle Alexandrie]], after the [[Keltian High Speed]]. The inauguration of the first section, between [[Punta Santiago]] and Beauharnais, was in {{AN year|1714}}. This shortened journey time between these two cities to less than 30 minutes. The station at Ponte Blanc came in {{AN year|1718}}, and the extension to [[Amapola]] in {{AN year|1720}}. There are plans to expand the line to [[Tudela]] and [[Alkhiva]], known as '''AV Alduria Phase 2'''.<br />
<br />
==Route==<br />
The line crosses most of the West Coast of [[Alduria]].<br />
<br />
The system is compatible with the regular rail network, sharing track around existing train stations, such as the dense urban areas in [[Punta Santiago]] and [[Narbonne]].<br />
<br />
The distance from Punta Santiago to Beuharnais is 264 km. The high-speed line allows a more direct route between the two stations through important tunnels and bridges, such as the vital Narbonne Northern Portal, making the route 84 km shorter than the regular line. There are other tunnels: the Gramercy South Tunnel, south of Gramercy, and the Olivia Suarez Tunnel east of Beauharnais. <br />
<br />
There are two stops used by service trains to divert passengers to existing city center stations:<br />
<br />
*at Ponte Blanc, towards Fontainebleau and Lares<br />
*at Porte de Gramercy, towards Gramercy<br />
<br />
The line runs next to the C2 motorway for 45 km (28 mi).<br />
<br />
==Line details==<br />
The line uses standard gauge (1.435 mm/ 4 ft 8.5 in) for the entirety of its track. Platforms are 15 m (50 ft) wide, with space between track centres of 4.5 m (15ft). The line was designed for a nominal speed of 350 km/h (220 mph), with a minimum radius curve of 5,400 m (17,800 ft).<br />
<br />
The track is double for the entirety of the track. It is formed by 60 kg/m (40.5 lb/ft) rails placed in 254 m (839 ft) lengths, welded in place. The track sleepers are 2.42 m (8 ft) concrete blocks with metal strut reinforcements. There are 1740 sleeps per kilometre.<br />
<br />
Traction power is supplied by four substations at 25 kV AC, 50 Hz. The caternary is an inverted phase "feeder" cable, with trainsets power drawing limits set at 10 MW.<br />
<br />
Signalling is performed by high-frequency track circuits. There are also lineside marker boards indicating limits of each block sections.<br />
<br />
==Stations==<br />
The AV Alduria serves the following stations:<br />
<br />
*Amapola<br />
*Punta Santiago Central<br />
*Narbonne Central<br />
*Porte de Gramercy<br />
*Ponte Blanc<br />
*Beauharnais Terminal<br />
<br />
In the future, it will serve:<br />
<br />
*Tudela Miragoz<br />
*Alkhiva Costa<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], the [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], the [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], the [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

<div>'''Southern Eura Railway Corporation''' is a corporation incorporated under the laws of the [[Federation of Nouvelle Alexandrie]], with its head office in [[Alduria City]], but with offices in [[Rusjar]], [[Aqaba]], [[Fontainebleau]] and [[Surenshahr]]. Created 8.I.1724 by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the [[Trans-Euran Railway]].<br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]], the [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
Created on 8.I.{{AN|1724}} by initiative of [[Nicolaos Tassotis]], Minister for Railroads, Reconstruction, and Infrastructure and member of the Allied Control Commission of [[Zeed]],, [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />
<br />
Created its purpose is to establish a working railroad between [[Sazavar]], [[Avey]], [[Rusjar]], and [[Ganzak-Gor]] in the [[Suren Confederacy]]. In line with this, the company was eager to report to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]] with respect to the task of the Trans-Euran Railway. <br />
<br />
The problem for the Grand Commissariat however was that the route in question had already been assigned and the work undertaken by the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]]. Accordingly the decision was made in late {{AN|1730}} that the Southern Eura Railway Corporation would be subordinated to the Grand Commissariat in the manner consistent with the process of coordination undertaken previously with the Raspur Railway Corporation. Stations formerly under the control of the Raspur Railway Corporation within the territory of the Commonwealth of Zeed would be transferred to the Southern Eura Railway Corporation, while Raspur Railway Corporation would be directly compensated by the Commonwealth for the loss of personnel, assets, and revenue that the loss of operations in Zeed would necessarily entail.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==Construction history of the railway==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorised [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
==Operational history of the railway== <br />
In {{AN|1724}}, [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorized [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline.<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
===Culmination===<br />
Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place in [[Zeed]] since 1704.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree by Basilinna Esmeralda authorised the Trans-Euran Command and Grand Commissariat to connect Petronium, Fort George Maniakes, Edgardia and Port Aguilar to the network, linking cities and settlements along the way. These segments were completed by {{AN|1725}}, marking the railway's overall completion.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1724}}, [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorized [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline.<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />

The '''Trans-Euran Railway''', inspired by the example of [[Babkha]]n and [[Bassarid]] forebears, comprises of overlapping networks concentrated in the eastern portion of the continent of [[Eura]]. The network has some overlap and interconnection with the [[Pan-Euran Highway]].<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
A project, began in the early 1660s, to establish a railway network linking [[Vey]] to [[Raspur]] and thence to the ports of [[Aqaba]] and [[Nivardom]]. The lines are being constructed in two concurrent incremental stages by the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]] and the [[Zjandarian Railway & Development Corporation]], both established in the year 1663.<br />
<br />
The Vey to Raspur project was terminated by the [[Second Euran War]] but the Aqaba to Nivardom project was seen through to completion by the Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1708}}, the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]], assisted by the [[Kapavia Southern Railway Corporation]], was tasked to extend the {{PAGENAME}} to [[Mehrshahr]], whilst the surviving elements of the previous ventures became subordinated to the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] under the authority of the [[Committee of Euran Salvation]].<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1720}}, an Imperial Decree expressed the desire of the Basilinna [[Esmeralda al-Osman|Esmeralda]] that a railway connect [[Petronium]] and [[Fort George Maniakes]] to [[Edgardia]] and [[Port Aguilar]], also linking cities and important settlements along the way. The Imperial Decree authorized [[Trans-Euran Command]] and the [[Grand Commissariat of Eura and Corum]] to all things necessary to make this happen within a reasonable timeline.<br />
<br />
===Assigned resources===<br />
<br />
In mid-{{AN|1708}} the Grand Commissariat received an Imperial Farman from [[Petropolis]] commanding [[Ardashir Bābakān-e Osman]] to provide over a period of three years starting in {{AN|1709}}, for the purpose of railway construction, the following:<br />
*372,775 [[kul]]s in 310 indentured regiments<br />
*2,000,000 tons of pig iron<br />
*209,500,000 mudbricks<br />
*384,000,000 baked bricks<br />
*1,860,000,000 [[Imperial staters]]<ref>Assigned from the tax farm of 6,200 ''[[Oikos (Commune)|oikoi]]'' in the province of [[Molivadia]] and the [[Raspur Khanate]]</ref><br />
<br />
These resources, once gathered by the Grand Commissariat were to be apportioned between the [[Aqaba-Nivardom Railway Construction and Development Corporation]], for construction work in the provinces of [[Aqaba]] and [[Molivadia]], and the [[Raspur Railway Corporation]] for works in the [[Raspur Khanate]] and [[Suren Confederacy]].<br />

===Initial progress===<br />
<br />
By {{AN|1711}}, mudbrick ziggurats had been built at each of the designated station sites for the stages. Adjoining the station ziggurats were raised earthen platforms, retained by mudbrick walls, from which projected causeways of rammed earth, within their own mudbrick retaining walls, along which the eventual track of the railway was to be set. The official height of these causeways was set at nine-metres in height, with a width of thirty-six metres, although allowance had to be made for the variable competency of the work parties, the occurrence of subsidence in certain areas, and efforts to follow the gradient as best possible. Whilst the stage causeways were meant to follow as straight a path as possible, some allowances had to be made for the difficulties presented by the terrain, which included irradiated deserts, impenetrable mountain ranges, and vast unbridgeable gorges. Wherever possible these obstacles were to be worked around, but a more insidious problem was where, owing to a defect of communication between the surveying and construction teams of the various stages, the causeways were found to be misaligned as they approached one-another. Remediation efforts had the unedifying effect of producing causeways that sometimes zigzagged awkwardly towards their point of convergence. The arduous work of constructing these causeways, over a contaminated and bandit-infested environment, naturally took its toll upon the assigned [[kul]] labour force, requiring the sending out of warbands to conduct [[razzia]]s so as to gather in fresh labourers; this in spite of the spike in the number of individuals selling themselves or their family members into bonded servitude owing to the [[Recession of 1709]]. As the causeways extended ever across the eastern portions of the Euran continent secondary camps began to be established at 100 km intervals. These satellite camps, enrounded by sand berms, stake pits, and barbed wire, served as worker barracks, storage depots, and rest stops for the continuous supply convoys.<br />
<br />
In {{AN|1724}}, [[Southern Eura Railway Corporation]] was incorporated to serve as the primary conduit by which the [[Commonwealth of Zeed]] would contribute to this effort. Since the end of the [[Third Euran War]], survey of the potential locations, securing of right-of-way and initial land preparation had taken place since 1704.<br />

==History==<br />
<br />
One interesting aspect with the Surenids, first attested during the [[Second Euran War]], was their disinclination to hold captives as prisoners of war for an extended period of time. Excepting those sent back for further interrogation by the gendarmes, those branded for the attention of the judicial authorities, or those summarily executed at the discretion of the commander of the local forces, captives taken by the Surenid forces would be released and sent back towards their own lines at the earliest opportunity. The macabre detail to note however is that those released in this manner would first be subjected to the amputation of their right hand and left foot. The bloody stumps resulting from these operations being cauterised by the heated blade of a knife, followed by the application of a coat of tar mixed with sand. Those wishing to avoid being released from captivity in this fashion were obliged to accept the Surenshah's salt and enter into his service as [[kul]]s under a [[Life-Service Bond]]. <br />
<br />
Long beset by equipment shortages, the Suren were almost pathetically grateful when in {{AN|1690}} the agents of the State Gendarmerie were able to negotiate the seizure of the [[Krasnocoria]]n arsenal formerly held in [[Port Ulje]] in return for offering the garrison there, marooned for five years since the collapse of their home country, generous cash payments, humanitarian relief supplies, and the opportunity to resettle in Surenid territory. <br />
<br />
At the same time more concerted efforts were made to identify, catalogue and salvage repairable pieces of equipment left over from the [[Euran Wars]]. To this assemblage of arms was added a steady flow of military aid received from [[Constancia]] and [[New Alexandria]] under the [[Fontainebleau Accords]] and subsequently from [[Trans-Euran Command]] following the accession of the Confederacy to the [[Raspur Pact]]. The outbreak of the [[Third Euran War]] ({{AN|1693}}&ndash;{{AN|1701}}) would see further donations of equipment, particularly in the form of light attack aircraft for counter-insurgency operations, and the embedding of advisors from the [[Imperial Constancian Armed Forces|Constancian Foreign Legion]] in the State Gendarmerie.<br />
<br />
The breadth of the conflict with [[Zeed]], encompassing guerrilla warface, counter-insurgency operations, and finally full-scale manoeuvre warfare, exceeded the capacity of the State Gendarmerie, even when reinforced by mobilised reserve elements of the Popular Levy. In spite of the Mobilisation Act of 1695 and the 1697 Impressment Act, the Surenids struggled to meet their manpower requirements, and indeed the bulk of the army that was eventually taken south into Zeedic territory after {{AN|1698}}, following in the wake of a Constancian offensive which overwhelmed the [[Ḡur Republic]], comprised of mercenaries, [[kul]] slave soldiers, and retainers taken from the Royal Court.<br />
<br />
Following the [[1701 Armistice of Alduria City|surrender]] of Zeed in {{AN|1701}}, the surviving armaments of the [[Revolutionary Armed Forces]] were transferred by [[Trans-Euran Command]] to the Suren Confederacy as part of the reparations owed by Zeed as the aggressor in the conflict.<br />
<br />
In spite of being sorely tested during the conflict with Zeed, the Popular Levy did not undergo meaningful reform in the following two decades and in consequence struggled to suppress the [[Kapavian insurgency]] and ultimately failed to reconquer the greater part of formerly [[Bassarid]] [[Norasht]] during [[Operation Jungle Bolo]]. On both occasions the Surenid had been obliged to stave off collapse through the widespread use of [[kul]]s and subjects pressed into service. Moreover the Surenid had only been able to sustain themselves at all through massive allied interventions staged by the [[Raspur Pact]], most notably by the [[Benacian Union]], [[Constancia]], [[Floria]], and [[Nouvelle Alexandrie]]. By {{AN|1718}} it was increasingly apparent that, in order to cease to be regarded as a liability by the [[Raspur Pact]], the military of the Suren Confederacy would have to undergo a wide-ranging process of reform and modernisation.<br />
<br />
In order to prepare for the reorganisation process, which would see the Popular Levy replaced in the national defence role by the Surenid Armed Forces, a professionalised and all-volunteer force, over the course of {{AN|1718}} &ndash; {{AN|1720}}, the mission of defending the Norashti frontier would be vested in the hands of the [[Lashkar-e-Yazatá]], the Constancian Home Guard, and the Benacian Eura Corps fielded by the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]] and [[Spitevice Group|Local Auxiliary Franchises]]. This process would necessitate the permanent establishment of the Popular Levy and the Gendarmes would be assigned to training camps overseen by the [[Allied Mission in the Suren Confederacy]], formed of contingents invited from member-states of the Raspur Pact. These national missions were as follows:<br />
<br />
*{{team flag|Benacian Union}}: Armoured Warfare<br />
*{{team flag|Constancia}}: Naval warfare<br />
*{{team flag|Floria}}: Infantry <br />
*{{team flag|Nouvelle Alexandrie}}: Area Defence (artillery, air-defence, surveillance, UAVs etc)<br />
*{{team flag|Shireroth}}: Aerial warfare<br />
<br />
The Surenid Armed Forces received an additional assistance package in the form of 32x [[F-8 Shrike]] multi-role strike aircraft donated by [[Sanama]]. The donation was accompanied by a training mission of deployed personnel from the [[Sanaman Union Air Force]], whose presence was deemed necessary as the Surenid cadre of trained aviators had next to no prior experience in the operation and maintenance of fast jet aircraft.<br />

The 7th is an elite light cavalry formation focused on mobility, screening and reconnaissance roles. It has significant infantry mobility assets but limited heavier anti-tank capabilities. The cavalry regiments are mounted in light wheeled APCs while the armoured cavalry has armoured reconnaissance vehicles. Artillery comprises towed 105 mm howitzers and air defence systems.<br />
<br />
==Unit history==<br />
<br />
===Formation and Early Years===<br />
The 7th Cavalry traces its origins to Suren Division of the old Popular Levy and the Surenshahr Defence Brigade that existed prior to the military reforms of 1718-1720. It was formed as a full division sometime in the late 17th century after the [[Suren Confederacy]] joined the [[Raspur Pact]].<br />
<br />
===Third Euran War (1693-1701)===<br />
The Suren Division saw extensive action during the [[Third Euran War]] against [[Zeed]] between 1693-1701. It played a key role in the Surenid counteroffensive from 1698 onwards that pushed into Zeedic territory following earlier [[Constancia]]n advances. However, the division struggled with manpower shortages and had to be reinforced by mercenaries, slave soldiers, and court retainers. <br />
<br />
===Kapavian Insurgency (1715-1717)===<br />
In 1715, the [[Babkhan Restoration Movement]] launched an insurgency in the Kapavia region aimed at preserving [[Babkha]]n culture. The rebel leader [[Amir Arslan]] formed the New Model Army which carried out attacks against the Suren government for two years. The 1st Gendarmes Brigade and 2nd Gendarmes Brigade were deployed to help suppress the insurgency, which necessitated significant involvement from Raspur Pact allies before it was finally crushed in 1717.<br />
<br />
===Reform and Modernisation===<br />
Following the Kapavian Insurgency, it became clear that the outdated Surenid military needed comprehensive reforms to modernize and professionalise. From 1718-1720, the 7th Cavalry underwent a process of reorganisation, retraining and re-equipping under the guidance of allied advisors from the Raspur Pact nations like the [[Benacian Union]] which led on armoured warfare. This period of reorganisation saw the scout elements of the Surenshahr Defence Brigade and the Suren Division consolidated the into a professional light cavalry force designated as the 7th Cavalry Division.<br />
<br />
===The Bitter Spring (1730)===<br />
In 1730, widespread protests and unrest erupted across the Suren Confederacy and [[Raspur Khanate]] in the event known as the [[Bitter Spring]]. As the situation deteriorated, the 7th Cavalry was recalled in II.1730 from its deployment supporting [[Operation Verdant Reach]] in [[Parestan]]. It was then dispatched to the capital [[Surenshahr]] to spearhead efforts to crush dissent and rebel forces like the [[Ḥezb-e Tūde-ye Eura]] guerrillas.<br />
<br />
Supported by Constancian air power, allied advisors and irregular [[Humanist Vanguard|Humanist militias]], the 7th Cavalry led assaults on insurgent strongholds through 1730. Its firepower and mobility enabled it to largely decimate the rebel groups through superior force, though at the cost of immense destruction and bloodshed. By late 1730, overt insurgent activity had been suppressed, but underlying grievances remained unaddressed.<br />

==History==<br />
<br />
One interesting aspect with the Surenids, first attested during the [[Second Euran War]], was their disinclination to hold captives as prisoners of war for an extended period of time. Excepting those sent back for further interrogation by the gendarmes, those branded for the attention of the judicial authorities, or those summarily executed at the discretion of the commander of the local forces, captives taken by the Surenid forces would be released and sent back towards their own lines at the earliest opportunity. The macabre detail to note however is that those released in this manner would first be subjected to the amputation of their right hand and left foot. The bloody stumps resulting from these operations being cauterised by the heated blade of a knife, followed by the application of a coat of tar mixed with sand. Those wishing to avoid being released from captivity in this fashion were obliged to accept the Surenshah's salt and enter into his service as [[kul]]s under a [[Life-Service Bond]]. <br />
<br />
Long beset by equipment shortages, the Suren were almost pathetically grateful when in {{AN|1690}} the agents of the State Gendarmerie were able to negotiate the seizure of the [[Krasnocoria]]n arsenal formerly held in [[Port Ulje]] in return for offering the garrison there, marooned for five years since the collapse of their home country, generous cash payments, humanitarian relief supplies, and the opportunity to resettle in Surenid territory. <br />
<br />
At the same time more concerted efforts were made to identify, catalogue and salvage repairable pieces of equipment left over from the [[Euran Wars]]. To this assemblage of arms was added a steady flow of military aid received from [[Constancia]] and [[New Alexandria]] under the [[Fontainebleau Accords]] and subsequently from [[Trans-Euran Command]] following the accession of the Confederacy to the [[Raspur Pact]]. The outbreak of the [[Third Euran War]] ({{AN|1693}}&ndash;{{AN|1701}}) would see further donations of equipment, particularly in the form of light attack aircraft for counter-insurgency operations, and the embedding of advisors from the [[Imperial Constancian Armed Forces|Constancian Foreign Legion]] in the State Gendarmerie.<br />
<br />
The breadth of the conflict with [[Zeed]], encompassing guerrilla warface, counter-insurgency operations, and finally full-scale manoeuvre warfare, exceeded the capacity of the State Gendarmerie, even when reinforced by mobilised reserve elements of the Popular Levy. In spite of the Mobilisation Act of 1695 and the 1697 Impressment Act, the Surenids struggled to meet their manpower requirements, and indeed the bulk of the army that was eventually taken south into Zeedic territory after {{AN|1698}}, following in the wake of a Constancian offensive which overwhelmed the [[Ḡur Republic]], comprised of mercenaries, [[kul]] slave soldiers, and retainers taken from the Royal Court.<br />
<br />
Following the [[1701 Armistice of Alduria City|surrender]] of Zeed in {{AN|1701}}, the surviving armaments of the [[Revolutionary Armed Forces]] were transferred by [[Trans-Euran Command]] to the Suren Confederacy as part of the reparations owed by Zeed as the aggressor in the conflict.<br />
<br />
In spite of being sorely tested during the conflict with Zeed, the Popular Levy did not undergo meaningful reform in the following two decades and in consequence struggled to suppress the [[Kapavian insurgency]] and ultimately failed to reconquer the greater part of formerly [[Bassarid]] [[Norasht]] during [[Operation Jungle Bolo]]. On both occasions the Surenid had been obliged to stave off collapse through the widespread use of [[kul]]s and subjects pressed into service. Moreover the Surenid had only been able to sustain themselves at all through massive allied interventions staged by the [[Raspur Pact]], most notably by the [[Benacian Union]], [[Constancia]], [[Floria]], and [[Nouvelle Alexandrie]]. By {{AN|1718}} it was increasingly apparent that, in order to cease to be regarded as a liability by the [[Raspur Pact]], the military of the Suren Confederacy would have to undergo a wide-ranging process of reform and modernisation.<br />
<br />
In order to prepare for the reorganisation process, which would see the Popular Levy replaced in the national defence role by the Surenid Armed Forces, a professionalised and all-volunteer force, over the course of {{AN|1718}} &ndash; {{AN|1720}}, the mission of defending the Norashti frontier would be vested in the hands of the [[Lashkar-e-Yazatá]], the Constancian Home Guard, and the Benacian Eura Corps fielded by the [[Benacian Union Defence Force]] and [[Spitevice Group|Local Auxiliary Franchises]]. This process would necessitate the permanent establishment of the Popular Levy and the Gendarmes would be assigned to training camps overseen by the [[Allied Mission in the Suren Confederacy]], formed of contingents invited from member-states of the Raspur Pact. These national missions were as follows:<br />
<br />
*{{team flag|Benacian Union}}: Armoured Warfare<br />
*{{team flag|Constancia}}: Naval warfare<br />
*{{team flag|Floria}}: Infantry <br />
*{{team flag|Nouvelle Alexandrie}}: Area Defence (artillery, air-defence, surveillance, UAVs etc)<br />
*{{team flag|Shireroth}}: Aerial warfare<br />
<br />
The Surenid Armed Forces received an additional assistance package in the form of 32x [[F-8 Shrike]] multi-role strike aircraft donated by [[Sanama]]. The donation was accompanied by a training mission of deployed personnel from the [[Sanaman Union Air Force]], whose presence was deemed necessary as the Surenid cadre of trained aviators had next to no prior experience in the operation and maintenance of fast jet aircraft.<br />
