The Marketta Republic
This page covers the rise and fall of the Marketta Republic, a fictional republic made by a bored wikipedian in self-quarantine due to Covid-19.

Birth
The Marketta Republic formed on the 16th of December 1942 in the Dutch East Indies shortly after the Japanese occupation. The republic started at the east side of Buitenzorg and quickly spread through word of mouth secretly. By 1943, half of the city was annexed by the republic. The secret republic formed a web of followers and started an alliance with the region's Illuminati community, fueling them with artillery and cognitohazards. After the Proclamation of Indonesian independence and the subsequent Indonesian national revolution, the republic made social ties with the SCP Foundation kickstarting the formation of the Global Occult Coalition 2 years later. The republic gained a considerable amount of power at the start of the 1950's by unknown means but most likely due to the Cold War and the election of Nastar bin Belisatudapatsatu. By 1956, the republic has annexed the entirety of Bogor, a large chunk of Parahyangan and has set up several enclaves in Jakarta.
