Antei

Antei National Party or Antei is one of the four major Okataian Political parties along with the Shinkoo National Party, Tomei National Party and Jiei National Party. The party was founded by Sato Fuji and Sencho Maen in 1912 as an alternative tp the Hoshu Party. Since the proclamation of the Okataian Federation in 1948 it has produced eight president, most notably from the Chawan Clan. It's current leader is the Okataian President Stephen Chawan

Formation
The party was formed in 1912 by Sato Fuji and Sencho Maen following many scandals within the existing Hoshu party, effectively Antei is considered the reformation of the Hoshu Royalist Party.

Communist Revolts
Ono Buncho and Morita Maro were two colonels of the Royal Army and prominent members of the Antei party. Directly after the war Senri Sorai represented the interests of communism in Oka and was supported in his endeavors by China. Ono Buncho sought support from the United-States in fighting communism and the Antei party organized many punitive missions against the communists

Implication in Post War Revolts
In the immediate aftermath of World War II, post-war economic conditions compounded with the then-ongoing Revolution caused severe inflation across Oka, made worse by disastrous currency reforms and corruption. This gave way to the reconstruction process and new reforms. Emperor Poemu, aged only 22 commited suicide in 1947. The passivity of the Emperor and the royal leaders against Japanese rule was considered high treason, and led to a nationwide revolt against them in 1945 and the mass murder of royalists, one of Oka's most violent revolution where over a thousand people died.

Hino Osamu who had formed the Shinkoo National Party led the revolt against the temporary government in charge. Retainers of royalism feared influences of Communism in Oka as Senri Sorai, a communist fought alongside Shinkoo. Kon Bokkai an Antei royalist from Renagawa led the counter-revolt in Antei's name and under his command Ono Buncho opened fire in the Shinkoo Headquarters in Oka City almost killing Hino Osamu. A week later during a revolutionary push into the Palace, Kuse Gaho opened fire on revolutionaries and effectively killed over a hundred protesters.

A revolutionary battle in Oishi saw Ono Buncho be publicly beheaded by the revolutionary idol Seno Soetsu, following this event Kon Bokkai fled back to Renagawa and surrendered as Antei could not defend the Royalists anymore. As the revolution closed and the royal family abdicated all rule on Oka, the Antei National Party was reformed by Yasumi Konyo and started reworking on the party's image after the revolution.

Antei and the Okataian Federation
Yasumi Konyo largely lost the elections of 1948 against Hino Osamu who had led the revolution against the Okataian Royal family. The party remained largely unpopular until Junpo Chawan became it's leader ushering new ideas and policies, under Chawan Antei's image become one of stability opposed to Shinkoo's drastic governance that protests had started questioning.

Name and symbols
Antei stands for Stability in Okataian and the name was chosen by Sato Fuji and Sencho Maen

The party mainly uses two symbols
 * Blue Dragon as a symbol of the Tansei mythology that describes the foundation of Oka.
 * Cyan Cirlce as a symbol of national unity and harmony

Ideology
Antei's political agenda features Okataian Nationalism as an important element of it's ideology since 1948. The "New" Okataian nationalism drives public policy and has been a powerful controlling force upon the Okataian polity since the 1960's. As a Federation, nationwide nationalism in Oka is weak, compared with the more salient provincial nationalism. Most Okataians tend to see the "Okataian People" and the Okataian state as being separate subjects. Many Okataians tend to associate more with Provincial state nationalism rather than Nationwide nationalism. The Ideology of Okataian Nationalism as defined by Junpo Chawan "is to form an unstoppable ensemble of individuality that form Oka" and thus simultaneously accept the coherence of allegiance to the state and the province.

Antei's second ideoplogy follows the notion of centrism. Centrism in Oka is a political outlook or specific position that involves acceptance or support of a balance of a degree of social equality and a degree of social hierarchy, while opposing political changes which would result in a significant shift of society either strongly to the left or the right

Locations
Antei has offices in most Okataian cities, it's headquarters are in Oka City and it's museum and historical headquarters before 1948 are in Renagawa. Antei are looking to open foreign offices for Okataians abroad in Teiko,Carolina,Poemia and Samra.

Electoral performance

Antei also has strong support in the labor sector because of the many labor benefits and insurance implemented while  Antei was in power.
