First Nusafi Republic

The Nusafi Republic, commonly known as the First Nusafi Republic, was a state founded amidst the Nusafi Revolution in the Sultanate of Abumiya. The creation of the Republic is widely regarded as among the most significant political developments in history and sometimes used to mark the beginning of the contemporary historical period.

Based on principles of republicanism, constitutionalism and nationalism, the Nusafi Republic created immediate tension in the wider region and brought on the Nusafi Revolutionary War between the new Republic and Abouzeidi Kingdom (with some support from neighbouring countries).

Despite defending their new territory from the invading forces, the Republic's government was forced to accept the re-creation of the Sultanate of Abumiya along the border with the Abouzeidi Kingdom. The country experienced a period of relatively stability until attempts to centralise power led to unrest and a second war with the Abouzeidi Kingdom (this time supported by the Sultanate of Jazara).

At the end of the conflict, the Republic was defeated and the Sultanate of Abumiya was re-established. Not long after the Second Nusafi Revolution was launched and the Second Nusafi Republic created.
