The Second Republic of Rakeo (Creeperian Spanish: Segunda República de Rakeo; Rakeoian: Dua Respubliko de Rakeo), also referred to contemporarily as the Rakeoian Republic was a country that existed from 1918 to 1955. Bordered by Creeperopolis to the north and Sequoyah to the west. It first became a new nation in 1918 as the Provisional Rakeoian Administration ruled by Committee for the Future of Rakeo following the second Independence referendum, with its capital at Olino, before being reorganized into a republic in 1920.
The end of colonial rule saw a new, more granular democracy, but voter restrictions that existed since 1888 remained in place.
The capture of Jinosia in 1955, and subsequence surrender of the Second Republic and Provisional Defense Command, led to the creation of the Stratocratic Republic of Rakeo.

Military
Under the Second Republic, the navy and army were both deployed multiple times to secure the country's security and protect commerce. Past 1950, authority over the military was transitioned to the Prime Minister exclusively, and the Provisional Defense Command took control of all military assets still in loyalist commanded territory. The rest of the military coalesced into the Militant Front.
Economy
The Rakeoian economy was afflicted with significant problems throughout the second republic. The country had long been dependent on a handful of low-wage high labor exports to Creeperopolis. When commercial shipping to Creeperian ports was deemed too dangerous to continue in XXXX, the export market collapsed. While exports resumed in XXXX, much of the workforce was still unemployed. Poor working conditions and mass unemployment quickly emboldened trade unionists, nativists, and Miguelists.
