| History: |
In 2047, Ecuador witnessed a transformative election that marked the rise of President-Elect Antonio Javier and his pioneering political movement, El Zucreismo Nacional del Ecuador (Z.N.E). With a vision for peace, resilience, and economic prosperity, the newly established leader and his movement brought about a golden era for the nation.
Under President Javier's leadership, Ecuador experienced a period of unprecedented stability and remarkable economic growth. The once turbulent political landscape found solace in the visionary policies of the Z.N.E, creating a thriving environment for its citizens.
However, fate took a poignant turn in 2096 with the untimely passing of President Antonio Javier. This event marked a somber chapter in Ecuador's history as the nation bid farewell to their beloved leader. The transition back to a Constitutional Republic served as a testament to the enduring legacy of President Javier, leaving behind a nation that, despite its grief, stood united in honoring the contributions of a leader who had steered them toward a brighter future.
