History[edit | edit source]
Burkina Fasoball was an 8ball and formed into many
Mossi Kingdomballs. Then,
Franceball adopted it in 1896 where it became part of
French West Africaball. The territory now known as Burkina Fasoball separated from
Ivory Coastball in the form of
French Upper Voltaball later in 1919. The name comes from its location up on the Volta River.
In 1958, it gained self-governance before becoming fully independent in 1960 under the name of the Republic of Upper Voltaball.
In 1983, Thomas Sankara came to power in a coup and would rename the country to
Burkina Faso in 1984. Sankara would make Burkina Faso self-sufficient and create a food surplus, vaccinate 2 million Burkinabé in order to combat measles, meningitis, and polio, combat deforestation, and distribute land to the peasants. However, being an anti-imperialist, he would call out
Franceball's neoconservative influence.
Franceball feeling threatened by this, planned a coup against it. In 1987,
Sankara would be killed in a coup.
Blaise Compaoré would then become
dicator president and Burkina Fasoball would fall under
Franceball and its CFA franc would be used to exploit the country back to poverty.
The countryball has since been the victim of multiple coups d'état. The latest coup was in 2014 as many oppositions allied against Blaise Compaoré (such as Sakarists). This was because Blaise Compaoré tried changing the constitution to stay for around 27 more years. The "Congress for Democracy and Progress" party was overthrown in the 2014 coup, with Roch Marc Christian Kaboré establishing the "People's Movement for Progress" which ousted Blaise Compaoré. In 2021, it is suffering from terrorist attacks killing 100 but it also won its first medal, which was bronze, in the Tokyo 202
01 Olympics.
Due to Kaboré's failure to counter-attack on {{I|ISIS},} terrorists in the countryball's clay, his dissents in the army started firing gunshots just a few days ago. Even though 8 officers were arrested, the military was successful in overthrowing Kaboré. The constitution is now suspended and now the militia now orders the sacking from chiefs to fight
and
Al-Qaedaball. President Kaboré has been contained by officers. In response, Burkina Fasoball received condemnation from both
UNball and
African Unionball.
Burkina Faso was later suspended from both the
African Unionball and
ECOWASball. Similar to
Maliball, this coup caused
French influence rot and made
pro-Russian influence a thing, as as some were seen waving the Russian national flag 🇷🇺. This had been due to protests against
Franceball's miltary taking place in the region as France is seen as unhelpful. After weeks of the transition, the constitution was restored on the 31st January, and Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba had been enrolled as president for the interm.
