Hasanistan comes second in 2025 Microvision

Hasanistan's entry "We Are the People" by the Australian band Empire of the Sun has come second-placed in the IBU Microvision Song Contest 2025, receiving a total score of 67 from the other national juries. They had previously qualified as the national entry after their victory in the Turanfest song festival earlier this year. They were only beaten by Arlandica's entry "Sé Quién Soy" by Angy Fernandez, which received 73 points. Todia came close in third place, whose entry "Moon" by Palina (ft. Ketevan) received 65 points.

The results for this year's edition of Microvision, hosted by Belcity, had been released yesterday. The event had originally been planned to have been finished in May, although organisational delays led to the event being completed this month. A total of eleven micronations participated, although one country (Northway) was eventually disqualified due to a failure to submit valid jury votes.

Official results of the IBU Microvision 2025

The Hasanistani entry received two 12 points from Brennonia and Todia, 8 points from Versmark, three 7 points from Arlandica, Belcity and Ikerlandia, two fives points from Lekronia and Slitronia, and 4 points from Pinang. The Hasanistani jury score distributed its points as follows: 12 to Brennonia, 10 to Belcity, 8 to Lekronia, 7 to Arlandica, 6 to Ikerlandia, 5 to Todia, 4 to Slitronia, 3 to Versmark and 2 to Pinang. It should be noted that the votes were adjusted due to Northway's disqualification, which (alongside the number of participants) resulted in no 1 points being awarded in this edition.

The performance of the Hasanistani entry in this year's Microvision was a significant improvement over its last participation attempt in 2022, where the country came last in semi-final round and did not reach the final. The second-placed finish has raised hopes that Hasanistan could win the next edition of Microvision.

The winning country Arlandica will host the next edition of Microvision, as per the tradition of the event. The Hasanistani national broadcaster HBY has stated it intends to participate in the next Microvision and is willing to provide any support to Arlandica in organising the event, who it has also congratulated on their victory. The HBY has also thanked Belcity for a "successful hosting and restart" of Microvision, which has ended the two year hiatus since the last Microvision in 2022.

Brennonia and Hasanistan re-establish ties and form union; territory gifted to Brennonia

Title page of the Treaty

Brennonia and Hasanistan have signed a "Treaty of Friendship, Union and Mutual Assistance" re-establishing diplomatic relations, exchanging territory and creating an institutional partnership in a form of a union, which will facilitate cooperation in numerous areas including mutual assistance, economic integration and the movement of people. According to the preamble of the treaty, the new relationship between Brennonia and Hasanistan intends to "enhance their partnership through greater integration and cooperation" and "establish a common political, cultural and economic space".

Brennonia and Hasanistan originally established diplomatic relations on 3 May 2020, although the two states first interacted as common members of the now-defunct international organisation Konmalehth. Ties between the two states had continued to strengthen from then, fostered by the friendship between their respective founders and the growth of shared dual citizens. In November 2020, Brennonia joined Hasanistan, Mahuset and Nedland in forming the "Batyr Bloc". Following the transformation of Hasanistan into the Great Turan State, Brennonia continued relations with the new entity. However, this led to the dissolution of the previous Hasanistani state and ended the special Brennonian-Hasanistani relationship. Following the secession of Hasanistan from the Great Turan State, the two states both expressed interest in re-building their friendly relations and cooperate in various new projects.

The union that the two states will form will not establish a unified single state but rather create an integrated partnership of the two while remaining as sovereign states, similar to the so-called "Union State" between Belarus and Russia, the European Union or the Gulf Cooperation Council. The King of Brennonia Chase Mahoning, who also serves as the current acting President of Hasanistan, will become the "Head of the Union". The Council of the Union will oversee the operation of the treaty's provisions as its executive body. The General Assembly will serve as an inter-parliamentary consultative body for the Union, composed of members from both country's legislatures, although it is not expected to be formed until both country's have held their next scheduled elections.

In summary, the provisions and areas of cooperation covered by the Union are as follows:

• The two countries have agreed a pact for non-aggression and mutual assistance. The non-aggression pact requires that neither party engage in hostile activities against the other, including participation in diplomatic or military blocs aimed against the other. Their agreement of mutual assistance requires them to support each other in times of crisis, man-made or natural. As Hasanistan is traditionally a neutral state, there is some question about what exactly this would mean in the case of a military conflict but it assumedly implies a defensive military alliance. The two states also agreed to consult each other if they believe they are threatened.
• Law enforcement cooperation and an extradition treaty.
• Economic union through the establishment of a zero-tariff free trade area, the simplification of customs procedures and the removal of non-tariff barriers to achieve a customs union and an agreement in principle to develop a common currency.
• Freedom of movement between citizens, the mutual right for citizens to work in the other country without a permit and the right to vote for citizens living in the other country.
• Scientific and technological research and development cooperation in the following fields: agriculture, artificial intelligence and machine learning, astronomy, biomedicine and health, computer science, financial technology, geography and geology, meteorology, nuclear technology and nuclear weapons development, robotics, software engineering, space exploration, transportation and video game studies.
• Cultural cooperation.

In addition to this, Hasanistan has ceded a small part of the Batyr region to Brennonia as a "gift territory" and a sign of goodwill. The small territory borders "Old Hasanistan" to the south-east and also shares a land border with Mahuset's overseas Central Asian territories. The Brennonian government has not named the territory but it is currently unofficially referred to as "Brennonian Hasanistan". In return, Brennonia has recognised the right for Hasanistan to claim a territory in the vicinity of its North American homeland.

The treaty was signed by King Chase for Brennonia and Acting Prime Minister Hasan Çakar for Hasanistan. The full treaty may be read here.

Prime Minister establishes state emblem, military, law enforcement and intelligence service

Acting Prime Minister Hasan Çakar has issued an executive order establishing a state emblem for Hasanistan, a military force, a law enforcement bureau and an intelligence bureau.

The order establishes the star and crescent from the Hasanistani flag as the emblem of the state, Hasanistan had previously lacked a national emblem or coat of arms since its transformation and integration into the Exalted Gurkani State. It is believed that the star and crescent will only temporarily serve as a national symbol, as the Hasanistani Turanic Society has been designing a new coat of arms.

The establishment of the military, law enforcement and intelligence institutions highlight the current provisional government's desire to re-develop state institutions. Although previous constitutions referenced a national military, Hasanistan has not had a functioning armed forces since the Hasanistan Revolutionary Militia which existed during the earlier periods of Hasanistani history. As demonstrated in the name of the new institutions, their current forms will probably only exist for the duration of the provisional government.

The Prime Ministerial Order reads as follows:

"As the Acting Prime Minister of Hasanistan, with the agreement of His Excellency the Acting President, I proclaim the following Prime Ministerial order:

1) The Star and Crescent of the Hasanistani flag shall serve as the Emblem of the State.

2) The Provisional Defence Force shall be established for the purposes of protecting the sovereignty and territorial unity of Hasanistan.

3) The Provisional Public Security Bureau shall be established for the purposes of maintaining the Laws of Hasanistan, preserving public order, detecting crime and apprehending violators of the Law.

4) The Provisional National Security Bureau shall be established for the purposes of protecting national security of Hasanistan through the collection of intelligence and other such activities deemed necessary to achieve its objective."
