Ciarnification

Ciarnification refers to the controversial policy enacted in the Charnezhyian SSR which from it's conception in 1965 to it's full overturnment in 1989, called for the legal change-of-name of all immigrants entering the Charnezhyian SSR from West Slavic, South Slavic and Baltic countries. The process involved the conversion of both the given and family name of a qualifying immigrant from a Slavic script to a Romanesque script, and expressed nationalistic properties and a xenophobic, anti-immigrant environment.
