Tsz Kong Political Sim
The Tsz Kong (Chinese: 紫港) Political Sim is an alternate-history political simulation. It is an auxiliary server of 852 Resurgence, and the spiritual successor of the East Macau Political Sim. The server went live on January 1, 2022, shortly after midnight.
Simulation History
The sim was hosted by Card0 from January until April, in its first 2 months of operation, the server was quite popular with talks of there even being a city building server hosted by Friedchilli. Throughout this time, Lieutenant Quattro served as the President of Tsz Kong, of the Zeonist Party. However as March came around, inactivity soared and members became apathetic to the server.
Eventually, Card0 would transfer full ownership to Flutters on April 15th 2022, hoping they could handle it while Card0 focused on other things. Unfortunately, inactivity remained high and the sim was suspended on April 25th 2022, though it has remained open to this day.
On July 4th, the server would be revived as Card0 returned to managing the server. However, flutters would remain the owner.
On July 10th, the first Tsz Kong Elections following the revival of the sim were held, Fahran was elected as his party: the Nationalists won the election. However, he would be ousted via a vote of no confidence on July 13th due to the actions of some of his MPs. Elections were rescheduled for July 16th. Farhan would later be accused of vote rigging and later was banned from both Tsz Kong and 852R as a whole.
What followed was a period of activity but also drama as president Kevinovich through both of his nonconsecutive terms, tried to gain more and more control in the sim, leading Card0 to eventually try and prevent him in his second term. However, this left the sim growing more inactive.
On January 17th 2023, Card0 made an emergency announcement in 852R urging members to join TK, calling it the "black sheep of hkgag". This led to a short period of increased activity before activity once again dropped. Following this, in March, Card0 also held a referendum on server reform, eventually leading to the server to be more "lore-focused" and having elections held on 3 months.
After a long back and forth argument between April 1st and 2nd, Zy would be disposed as President on April 2nd 2023 due to his passive aggressiveness. Farhan, who was unbanned from participating in politics, was re-elected.
Under Farhan's leadership, many changes would made to the sim to boost activity such as new bots, reviving the judiciary and connecting to different political sims.
Lore (Unfinished)
Prehistoric Era
Imperial Era (221 BC-1828 AD)
In 1648, the Dutch East Indies company, seeing great success in their colonies, purchased Tsz Kong from the Southern Ming regime and for more firearms against the Qing Empire. They established the fort of De Koong on what is now Sham Uk and a trade post alongside it.
De Koong was soon taken over by Zheng Chengong (or Koxinga) as a forward base for anti-Qing activities. At the same time, at the second Anglo-Dutch war in 1665, nominal sovereignty over the Island was transferred to the British.
The Island was never taken by the British for almost 200 years and eventually fell under the Qing empire and remaining a rural community. The fort and parts of the trading post still exist today in the form of (...)
French Colonial Era (1858-1918)
Following the end of the Second Opium War, China ceded the territories of modern-day Southern peninsular Tsz Kong(south of avenue de la Boundarie passing from Davistown to Oi Yip) to France at the Convention of Peking. The first governor, Antoine Cordier, declared the administrative centre of the territory to be in the general vicinity of Centrale in the modern-day.
Wanting to expand their colonial holdings in China, France was able to purchase the rest of mainland Tsz Kong from China in 1898 for $3 million thanks to a greater participation in the coalition.
France expanded the agricultural and trading economy of the colony and used it as a training ground for the local armed forces, aiming to compete with British colonies in the area.
Tsam Au Airport (then known as Tsz Kong Field), Racecourse Grandé-Jardin and many other iconic facilities were established during that period.
British Tsz Kong (1858-1918)
In the treaty of Peking, the British gained sovereignty over Tsz Kong Island alongside the Kowloon Peninsula, in accordance to their claims in the Anglo-Dutch wars.
They initially constructed their settlement on what they called "New Plymouth", atop and around Dutch fortifications which had been used as government headquarters for quite an amount of time.
Pre War-British Colonial Era (1918-1941)
Following the end of the First World War, Anglo-French colonial agreements shifted. This included the merger of British and French Tsz Kong into one single British Tsz Kong colony under the treaty of Sèveres (becoming its only actual effect).

Geography
Upon inspection, Tsz Kong appears similar to the Special Administrative Regions of the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong and Macau. However, Tsz Kong is an independent city-state, more akin to Singapore.
According to Card0, Tsz Kong lies off the southern coast of China.
Government
A Parliament and a President are chosen every 4 weeks. They are chosen democratically by the people.
Most parliament and presidential candidates are members of a political party. The age of the political party has zero bearing on candidate participation.
Parliament members debate bills and discuss issues regarding Tsz Kong, given by the Supervisors of the simulation.
