| ==Etymology==
| |
| ''Hasanistan'' is intended to be literally translated to mean the "Land of the Hasanis". The name of Hasanistan can be divided into two components: the ethnonym "[[Hasani people|Hasani]]" and the [[w:Persian language|Persian]] "-stan" suffix.
| |
| | |
| The ethnonym ''Hasani'' is derived from the [[w:Arabic language|Arabic]] word "ḥasuna" (''حَسُنَ'') which means beautiful. The etymological origin of ''Hasani'' has been a heavily disputed topic. The most popular theory is that the ethnonym itself is derived from the name of the founder of Hasanistan [[Hasan Çakar]]. A revisionist theory pushed during the [[Qaragüliyyâh period]] posited that the ethnonym derived from the name of [[w:Hasan ibn Ali|Hasan ibn Ali]], an [[w:Imamah (Shia)|Imam]] of [[w:Shia Islam|Shia Islam]] and one of the sons of [[w:Ali|Ali]].

Qaragüliyyâh leader [[Isa Musa al-Hussaini]], who was the new identity of the former Pavlovian Emperor Iskender IV, was given control of the judiciary and became the ceremonial figurehead of Hasanistan (in a similar manner to the [[wikipedia:Supreme Leader of Iran|Supreme Leader of Iran]]).<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2017/06/third-constitution-ratified-new.html Third Constitution ratified; new government structure established].

Following instability within Nedlando-Khorașan as disputes arose between the Nedlandic administration and Khorașan, Hasanistan became dissatisfied with the entity and unilaterally seceded on 7 September.<ref name="secede from nk"/>

| In late February and early March, Iskender IV tabled the ''[[I DEN AM 2 (Tsardom of Pavlov Act)|Tsardom of Pavlov Act]]'' in the [[Mejlis]] to begin the process of merging with Montescano to begin another attempt to reform Pavlov. The first attempt at promoting the motion ended in failure as the votes were tied. He then proposed a motion which would have allowed him to issue a tie-breaking vote in the case of such legislative stalemates, which was passed due to one of the opponents of the Tsardom of Pavlov Act abstaining. This later allowed a second vote on the initial motion on merging with Montescano, which ended in a tie again but was passed by the Shahanshah's tie-breaking vote.<ref>[http://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/03/mejlis-holds-two-day-session-approves.html Mejlis holds two-day session; approves invite joining new Pavlovian Tsardom]. ''Batyr Times''. 1 March 2020.</ref> The passage of this Act and the manner in which it was passed caused a rift in Hasanistan, setting the prelude to a [[2020 Hasani political crisis|future political crisis]].

| During the month of March, the [[wikipedia:COVID-19 pandemic|COVID-19 pandemic]] became a significant concern for many Hasanistani citzens. This led to the beginning of a [[COVID-19 pandemic in Hasanistan|government response to the pandemic]]. However, the first attempt to implement a government COVID response proposed by Hasan Çakar was rejected as the motion was criticised for being dictatorial and there were fears he would use the emergency powers for unrelated matters such as repealing the Tsardom of Pavlov Act.<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/03/mejlis-fails-to-pass-coronavirus.html Mejlis fails to pass Coronavirus legislation]. ''Batyr Times''. 13 March 2020.</ref> The proposals were later slightly amended to remove previous areas of concern and approved by the Mejlis a few days later.<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/03/cpmc-act-voted-on-again-and-passed.html CPMC Act voted on again and passed; Prime Minister gives additional statement on COVID-19 pandemic].

| On 4 April, Hasanistan was formally incorporated into the Tsardom of Montescano as an [[wikipedia:Dominion|autonomous dominion]].<ref name="HasanistanJoinsMontescano"/> However, relationship between the monarchy and the government privately broke down as opposition to the merger still existed among many significant figures including Hasan Çakar. On 21 April, Hasan Çakar announced his resignation as Prime Minister due to his growing opposition to the situation.<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/04/cakar-resigns-as-prime-minister-acting.html Çakar resigns as Prime Minister; Acting Prime Minister appointed]. ''Batyr Times''. 21 April 2020.</ref> An agreement was later reached whereby an independence referendum was planned in Hasanistan in May to finally solve the issue and Hasan Çakar was re-appointed Prime Minister to oversee its implementation.<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/04/independence-referendum-proclaimed-for.html Independence referendum proclaimed for May].

| ===Fifth Republic===
| |
| Following the separation from Montescano, Hasan Çakar proclaimed himself as a [[Naib-i-Şehinşah|regent]]<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/04/prime-minister-declares-himself-naib-i.html Prime Minister declares himself Naib-i-Şehinşah].

This included most members of the Hasanistani legislature, with its remnants known from then until its dissolution as the [[Rump Mejlis]].<ref>[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/05/rump-mejlis-reformed-november-elections.html Rump Mejlis reformed; November elections confirmed to still take place].

| On 12 May, Hasanistan adopted its [[Sixth Constitution of Hasanistan|sixth and current constitution]]. Unlike previous constitutions, the details of the system of government were not fully established within itself but rather it solely defined principles by which Hasanistan's government model were to be based upon (those being [[wikiepdia:Democracy|democratic]] or [[wikipedia:Election|elective]] representation, respect for the [[wikipedia:Rule of law|rule of law]] and an [[wikipedia:Judicial independence|independent judiciary]]). The exact nature of the system of government was instead to be regulated by Acts of the National Parliament, effectively resembling elements of an [[wikipedia:Uncodified constitution|uncodified constitution]] on that matter. The Rump Mejlis approved a motion regarding the system of government which re-established the semi-presidential system.<ref name="SixthConstitutionEstablished">[https://hasanistan-gov.blogspot.com/2020/05/sixth-constitution-and-new-law.html Sixth Constitution and new law regarding system of government passed].
