History
People’s State of San Andreas
On 7 May 2012, the People’s State of San Andreas was founded by Migs Caldeo, who assumed the presidency of the new state. Originally conceived as a virtual micronation, the People’s State of San Andreas gradually moved towards becoming a territorial micronation. Initially claiming areas in Southeast Asia, Europe and North America, the People's State of San Andreas consolidated its territorial claims and centered all of its activities in Manila, Philippines - which is known as the province of Urbonia in San Andreas - by July 2012, with its other territorial claims being dropped by 2013.
On 29 May 2012, the People's State of San Andreas ratified its first constitution with the state's first general elections being held on June 10. The elections resulted to the election of Migs Caldeo as the president of San Andreas, however, it sparked a constitutional crisis as the elections for the state's legislature - the People's Assembly - were inconclusive. The government soon collapsed and martial law was declared by President Migs Caldeo on 30 June, with a new constitution ratified on 5 July and new elections to the People's Assembly held on 13 July.
Soon after the state's establishment, the People's State of San Andreas soon found itself in military conflicts with other micronations, with notable actions including the stand-off with the Grand Intermicronational Alliance in May 2012 and a seven-hour conflict with the Kingdom of Fortania in July 2012. The state soon focused with its political system with the establishment of the National People's Party of San Andreas - the state's ruling political party and the origins of the Daikoku Social People's Party - on 9 September 2012.
On 18 January 2013, Migs Caldeo was re-elected in the first contested presidential elections in the People's State of San Andreas, with the National People's Party securing a majority in the legislative elections.

Principality of Treisia
On 25 February 2013, Karlos Luis Mozo Anioay established a territorial micronation named as the Principality of Treisia with him being the grand prince. Treisia is a monarchy located near Manila, Philippines and it shares a border with the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia to its south.
Due to its geographical location and the alliance formed between the two nation's leaders, Urbonia and Treisia established diplomatic relations on 26 February.
The status of Treisia was later elevated to a kingdom on 25 February 2014 following a referendum. Karlos Luis Mozo Anioay became king under the name Karlos.

Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia
On 24 January 2013, Migs Caldeo signed into law the Dissolution Act which approved the dissolution of the People's State of San Andreas in favor of a new micronation called as the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia in May 2013. The signing of the Dissolution Act was part of Migs Caldeo's plan to create a more unified state with a parliamentary system of government.
The transition period became violent on 21 February 2013 when the People's Assembly and the San Andrean paramilitary launched a coup d'etat attempt to overthrow President Migs Caldeo. The coup plotters demanded for the creation of a military force for San Andreas which President Caldeo refused due to international obligations. The head of the coup plotters, General Vince Tambaoan of the San Andrean paramilitary force, was installed as "president".
President Migs Caldeo responded to the coup d'etat by establishing the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia on the same day, and vowed that his government is the legitimate government of the nation. The coup d'etat ended on 22 February, with the coup plotters accepting the government's ultimatum. Negotiations soon started between the Urbonian government and the coup plotters, however, it later deteriorated when the coup plotters launched another coup d'etat attempt on 27 February.

Operation Nadeko
As peace and order deteriorated in the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia due to the coup d'etat attempt, the Urbonian government requested military aid from the Treisian government. They orchestrated a counter-coup called as Operation Nadeko which involved an attack by Urbonian loyalist forces aided by the Treisian Internal Defense Forces against the coup plotters in the Urbonian capital of Shiro-shi. The operation was launched on 28 February 2013 and it resulted to the surrender and arrest of the coup plotters.
After Operation Nadeko, attempts were made to rehabilitate the Urbonian nation through the introduction of a new constitution on 6 March and the installment of Patrick Nuguid as prime minister on the same day. Prime Minister Nuguid resigned on 21 March after he failed to create a government and was succeeded by Noel Cabe as prime minister, who also failed to create a government.
The failure to create a new government pushed Urbonia to begin negotiations with Treisia to establish the Daikoku Federation.

Daikoku Federation
On 13 April 2013, Migs Caldeo and Karlos Luis Mozo Anioay met for a summit between the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia and the Principality of Treisia. The summit concluded the negotiations held in early April by the two nations and resulted in the signing of a treaty by the nations' leaders which established the Daikoku Federation.
Throughout the history of the Daikoku Federation, it was under three constitutions which were approved on 25 May 2013, 11 April and 9 August 2014 respectively. The government was also under the rule of the socialist-oriented Daikoku People's Front and its succeeding Daikoku Social People's Party, which has managed to keep control of all seats in the Federal Assembly through elections held on 21 June and 16 October 2013 and 30 June and 24 October 2014.
The Daikoku Federation was also in constant cold relations with neighboring Ariana and Kaleido over the issue of the territorial claims of the federation. Several negotiations were held between these states, however, most have ended in failure. This has led to escalations in August to October 2013, and January to February 2014. These escalations later led to a full-scale military action by Ariana and Kaleido against the Daikoku Federation on 15 April 2014. This has led to the Daikoku Federation strengthening an isolationist policy initially adopted on January 2014 on Kaleido, and later extended against Ariana and its allies on May 2014.
The Daikoku Federation restarted negotiations with Ariana and Kaleido in September 2014. This led to the toppling of the government of Tinyente in Ariana where rebel forces led by Darwin Eugenio took power in a coup d'etat and established Namayan, which was backed by both Daikoku and Kaleido. However, the decision of Kaleido to establish the autonomous region of Stykria-Frieden and its refusal to withdraw its decision led to tension between the allied Daikoku and Ariana against Kaleido.
Republic of Daikoku
Following the formation of a government under the constitution of 9 August 2014, there was a growing concern from the Urbonian government over the future of the Daikoku Federation due to the perceived inactivity in Treisia.
On 2 November 2014, following the first session of the new parliament under the new constitution, King Karlos of Treisia announced that he would be abdicating and that the Kingdom of Treisia would be dissolved. The Federal Assembly met in a special session which led to it approving a federal law which dissolved the Daikoku Federation on 3 November 2014.
On 3 November 2014, the remaining former entities of the Daikoku Federation were re-organized under Urbonian administration and became the Republic of Daikoku - the successor state of the former federation.
On 17 December 2014, the Constitutional Commission of the Republic of Daikoku voted to approve the Constitution of the Republic of Daikoku, which was later approved in a referendum on 23 December.
On 15 January 2015, Migs Caldeo, President of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Daikoku, declared emergency rule as inactivity threatened the stability of the republic.
On 1 February 2015, the Republic of Daikoku became an autonomous republic under the Rajahnate of Namayan following negotiations between the two governments.
Principality of Daikoku
On 7 May 2015, the Republic of Daikoku was dissolved in favor of an absolute monarchy under the Principality of Daikoku, with Migs Caldeo becoming Masamune, prince of Daikoku.
Democratic People's Republic of Daikoku
On 17 July 2015, republican rule was restored with the establishment of the Democratic People's Republic of Daikoku following the dissolution of the principality and the abdication of Prince Masamune, who later became President of the National Council as Migs Caldeo.
