The Salisfordian [[Old Kingdom (Salisford)|Old Kingdom]] was founded in 546 AD, when Dux Tiberias Valencius declared himself the King of Salisford. This Kingdom would survive until 1790, when a 8-year long popular revolt would force the Kingdom to capitulate and form the [[Salisfordian Republic]]. The Republic would be plagued with bureaucratic inflexibility, corruption, and banditry. The Republic would last until 1800, when a rural Salisfordian aristocrat would soundly beat the Republic in the [[Salisfordian Counter-Revolution]]. This aristocrat would invite the exiled [[House of Valenza]] to return and create a new Salisfordian Kingdom. This [[New Kingdom (Salisford)|new kingdom]] would become the current government of Salisford. In 1969, after the assassination of the popular [[Maria III of Salisford|Maria III]] and her immediate family, Salisford would fall into [[Salisfordian Chaos|chaos]] and [[Salisfordian Civil War|civil war]]. Remaining military forces and political paramilitaries would battle until 1974, when a monarchist faction led by King [[Carlo III of Salisford|Carlo III]] would defeat remaining opposition and reimpose the authority of the Salisfordian crown.

Official photograph of Neri, 1959.

Sandro Muhammad Neri (10 September 1899 – 1 May 1968) was a Salisfordian military officer and politician who founded and led the Catholic Labor Front. He was First Minister of Salisford from his March on Savotta in 1950 until his assassination in 1968. Neri served as the de-facto dictator of Salisford, and was the most prominent political leader until his death.

Born to a poor peasant family in Egitta, Neri was educated in a local Sunni Muslim school. After studying at the Alessandria Military Academy under the scholarship of his local government, he was asssigned to the 42nd Infantry Regiment where he swiftly rose through the ranks, becoming a Colonel in 1936. In 1936, Neri participated in the Rubicon Incident as one of the Salisfordian commanders where he established a reputation in military circles as a exemplary office and leader. As a result, Neri was promoted to Major General an chosen to serve as the commander of the Salisfordian expeditionary force sent to aid the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council in the Creeperian Civil War to fight against the National Council for Peace and Order. Shortly the end of the conflict in the favor of the Imperial Council, Neri would undertake his March on Savotta, caused by a political dispute with the monarch, and was appointed as first minister of Salisford. Using his newfound political power, he consolidated power and signed a series of laws which transformed the country into a de facto one-party dictatorship. Within a couple years, Neri and his followers had established dictatorial authority by both legal and illegal means. Read more...
