The '''Tanoa Einsatzgruppen''' was a totalitarian dictatorship that governed [[Tanoa]] from 1944 until its dissolution on 30 November 2024. Established under the leadership of [[Jan Paap]] and later ruled by [[Eef Paap]], it developed into a territorially anchored regime with extensive overseas influence through military capacity, resource extraction, and tightly controlled financial systems. At its height, the organization exercised direct control or decisive influence across multiple regions, including parts of Africa, South America, and the South Atlantic.
The '''Tanoa Einsatzgruppen''' was a totalitarian dictatorship headquartered in [[Narevaku]] that lasted from 1944 until 30 November 2024. It developed from the [[Argentine Einsatz]], which [[Jan Paap]] founded in [[Rada Tilly]], [[Argentina]], on 13 May 1944. After his expedition landed on [[Ravi-Ta]] in the Tanoa province on 9 August, Paap reorganized it as the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen and became the first [[Führer of Tanoa]].<ref name="argentine-reorganization"/><ref name="jan-founding"/>


The organization’s administrative center was [[Georgetown]], which served as the primary site for state ceremonies, leadership transitions, and institutional coordination. From its earliest years, the Einsatzgruppen maintained a large security and military apparatus supported by forced labor, domestic weapons manufacturing, and a centrally administered command economy focused on gold, minerals, and strategic resources.
The regime conquered Narevaku and later controlled most of [[South America]] and parts of [[Africa]]. Its economy depended heavily on slavery and forced labor. Outside the territories it controlled, the government bribed and blackmailed foreign officials and used recordings of private gatherings to influence political decisions.<ref name="history-1970s"/><ref name="history-2020s"/>
 
The [[Weltraumgruppen]] operated the regime's space program. It established permanent orbital infrastructure and off-world industry before placing three planets under military administration by 2014. The branch also operated orbital warships and self-contained city-ships.<ref name="weltraumgruppen-overview"/>
 
[[Georgetown]] became the administrative center of the state after its foundation in 1945. Jan Paap governed until his retirement in January 1980, when his son [[Eef Paap]] succeeded him at the age of 11. Resistance led by the [[Fish Collective]] and the [[Tanoa Resistance]] dismantled the central command in November 2024. Eef was killed on 24 November, and the remaining command surrendered six days later.<ref name="government-leadership"/><ref name="eef-succession"/><ref name="history-2020s"/>


== Name ==
== Name ==
The name ''Tanoa Einsatzgruppen'' referred both to the ruling state authority and to the integrated security, military, and administrative system governing Tanoa. Internally, the term encompassed the Führer, his appointed command hierarchy, and the network of offices and agencies responsible for enforcement, labor, finance, and overseas operations.
 
The name ''Tanoa Einsatzgruppen'' referred both to the state and to the military, security and administrative structure through which it was governed. The organization retained the name after the Argentine Einsatz was reorganized on Tanoa in August 1944.


== Background ==
== Background ==
=== Jan Paap in Argentina (1944) ===
In 1944, [[Jan Paap]] deserted from the Eastern Front, ending his Wehrmacht service (1936–1944), and relocated to [[Argentina]]. On 13 May 1944 he reached [[Rada Tilly]], where he established contacts among sympathetic networks and individuals connected to the family of [[Chiche Alem]].


During this period, Paap developed plans to establish a centralized authoritarian state outside existing legal jurisdictions. He reportedly learned Spanish and began recruiting collaborators, deserters, engineers, and scientists, many of whom later formed the technical and administrative core of the emerging regime.
=== Jan Paap in Argentina ===
 
In January 1944, [[Jan Paap]] deserted from the German military while serving on the Eastern Front. He travelled across Europe before reaching Argentina and arrived at [[Rada Tilly]] on 13 May 1944.
 
Paap founded the [[Argentine Einsatz]] on the day of his arrival. Recruitment began through small groups in Patagonia while he prepared an expedition to Tanoa. [[Jose Alem]] joined the organization during this period and later became one of its senior officials.<ref name="jan-founding"/>
 
By July, the Argentine Einsatz had approximately 3,400 members. The expedition departed from [[Comodoro Rivadavia]] on 28 July 1944 using chartered and seized vessels.<ref name="argentine-expedition"/>


== Formation ==
== Formation ==
=== Expedition and arrival in Tanoa (August 1944) ===
After assembling an initial force of approximately 3,400 members, Jan Paap organized an expedition from Argentina to locate a remote and defensible territory. The group reached the mainland of [[Tanoa]] on 9 August 1944, first landing on the island of [[Ravi-Ta]].


Early movements included exploration of settlements such as [[Ipota]], which became an initial center for coerced labor organization. During this consolidation phase, no civilian government or monetary system existed; resources, labor, and materials were distributed through direct command authority. Construction of infrastructure and leadership facilities relied entirely on forced labor.
=== Expedition and arrival in Tanoa ===
 
The expedition reached Tanoa on 9 August 1944 and first landed on [[Ravi-Ta]]. Paap directed the landing and the establishment of the first permanent base. Native inhabitants were forced to construct barracks and command facilities.<ref name="argentine-expedition"/>
 
After the landing, the Argentine Einsatz was reorganized as the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen. Paap became the first [[Führer of Tanoa]], while Jose Alem became the first [[Reichsführer-SS]] after the formation of the [[Allgemeine SS]].<ref name="argentine-reorganization"/>
 
The organization then expanded onto the main Tanoan landmass. [[Nasua]] was occupied on 15 August, followed by further advances through [[Momea]] and [[La Rochelle]]. Paap ordered reproductive coercion against adult native captives at La Rochelle and later ordered [[Savu]] burned. Surviving inhabitants were enslaved after resistance was suppressed at Nasua and [[Saint-Paul]].<ref name="history-1940s"/>
 
Paap initially cooperated with the Japanese forces occupying Narevaku and fought alongside them against the [[United States Marine Corps|United States Marines]]. A secret armistice arranged through [[Glöbbery|Glöbberist]] intermediaries ended direct American operations against Paap without granting diplomatic recognition to his organization. Japan ended its formal occupation of the country, but Japanese personnel who remained in the islands were permitted to enter the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen.
 
After taking the Northern Division, the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen rapidly extended its campaign across the rest of Narevaku. Its forces captured [[La Roche]], displaced the national government and brought the Central, Eastern and Southern divisions under Tanoan control before the end of 1944.

{{History of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen}}
The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was established in 1944 by [[Jan Paap]] and consolidated control over [[Tanoa]] through forced labor, centralized security institutions, and treasury-led economic management. [[Georgetown]] was founded in 1945 and became the administrative center of the regime.


From the mid-20th century onward, the regime expanded its command economy and extended its influence beyond Tanoa through direct annexation and the creation of politically subordinate states. Territories such as [[Patagonia]] and [[Argentina]] were integrated into the centralized administrative and financial system, while countries including [[Liberia]] and [[Rwanda]] were reorganized as puppet states aligned with Tanoan security and economic interests. [[Fiji]] was placed under direct military governance and incorporated into the regime’s logistical and strategic network in the South Pacific. These expansions increased access to manpower, resources, and maritime routes, strengthening the regime’s overseas presence.
After the initial occupation of Tanoa, Jan Paap expanded the state administration and created institutions to control the territory. The [[NSTAP]] was founded in 1944 as the ruling political organization. The [[Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa]] and [[Paapjugend]] followed in 1945. Georgetown was founded on 10 October 1945 and became the main administrative center of the regime.<ref name="history-1940s"/>
 
The regime maintained covert relations with [[Japan]] from 1945 through Japanese Glöbberists, veterans and commercial intermediaries. Tanoa and Japan formed a formal alliance after Japan regained sovereignty in 1952.
 
The state continued to develop during the 1950s. In 1950, Paap established the [[Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]] as the central command authority. Patagonia came under de facto Tanoan control in 1953. Argentina was formally annexed in 1965 and incorporated into the regime's financial and administrative system.<ref name="history-1950s"/><ref name="history-1960s"/>
 
Expansion continued during the 1970s through the [[Tanoa Einsatz Expansionist Campaign]]. [[Liberia]] came under Tanoan control in 1974. [[Fiji]] was annexed in 1975 and placed under military rule. [[Rwanda]] became a Tanoan puppet state in 1979.<ref name="history-1970s"/>
 
On 31 December 1979, a prison disturbance in [[Suva]] developed into the [[Suva Crisis]]. Anti-Tanoan rebels fought Tanoan occupation forces and Tanoan-controlled Fijian police until the uprising was suppressed on 2 January 1980. Communications between Fiji and Tanoa were reorganized after the crisis.<ref name="history-1970s"/>
 
Jan Paap retired in January 1980. Eef Paap succeeded him immediately as Führer, aged 11. His accession was formally marked by a state ceremony in Georgetown on 6 November 1980. Jan continued advising him until 1987.<ref name="eef-succession"/><ref name="history-1980s"/>
 
During Eef's rule, military activity increased in Tanoa and [[Ravi-Ta]]. State institutions continued using forced labor for mining and construction. Financial administration became more centralized, while security institutions expanded surveillance and political enforcement.<ref name="history-1980s"/>
 
Opposition to the regime became increasingly organized during the 2010s. The Fish Collective was founded in 2019 and developed networks inside Tanoa. Its members collected records, carried out attacks against officials and worked with resistance members.<ref name="history-2010s"/>
 
During 2024, Fish Collective operations increasingly targeted the senior leadership. [[Daniel Paap]], the [[Deputy Führer of Tanoa]], was killed in August. On 24 November, the Tanoa Resistance under [[Savenaca Vatuvakalolo]] opened the [[Battle of Georgetown]] against the central command. The resulting disruption of security and naval coordination helped [[Mark Hugerinus Paap]] reach Eef Paap at a villa near [[Ipota]], where he killed him that day.<ref name="history-2020s"/>
 
No successor was appointed as Führer. Resistance forces continued their ground assault on the Georgetown command for six days while the remaining government lost the ability to coordinate its institutions. On 30 November 2024, the central command surrendered and the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen ceased to function as an organized state.<ref name="history-2020s"/>
 
== Geography ==
 
The original territory of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was [[Narevaku]] in the South Pacific. Its conquest began in the Tanoa province of the Northern Division before extending across the entire country. [[Georgetown]] became the regime's capital after its foundation in 1945, replacing the former national capital at La Roche. Military bases and industrial sites were established throughout the islands, while underground facilities were constructed around [[Mont Tanoa]].


After the retirement of [[Jan Paap]], leadership passed to [[Eef Paap]], who preserved the established political and economic structure. Under his rule, militarization intensified, surveillance systems expanded, and enforcement mechanisms became more centralized. Administrative institutions remained directly subordinate to the Führer, and the integration of security, finance, and population control continued to define the system.
Tanoan-controlled territory later extended far beyond the islands. Patagonia was incorporated into the regime's system during the 1950s, followed by Argentina in 1965. By 2020, Tanoan authority extended across most of South America. [[Suriname]] remained outside its control, while [[Brazil]] operated as a puppet state.


From 2019, resistance activity increased, led by the [[Fish Collective]]. On 24 November 2024, coordinated resistance operations killed senior leadership figures and disrupted central administration. The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen ceased to exist as an organized state authority on 30 November 2024.
The regime also established direct or indirect authority in parts of Africa. Liberia and Rwanda were governed through Tanoan-aligned administrations. Fiji was directly annexed and became an important Tanoan position in the South Pacific.


== Government and politics ==
== Government and politics ==
The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen functioned as a centralized, non-electoral totalitarian dictatorship from its founding in 1944 until its collapse in 2024. Political authority was vested exclusively in the office of the Führer, with no constitution, parliament, or civilian representative institutions.
 
{{Main|Government of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen}}
 
The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was governed according to the [[Führerprinzip]]. The Führer served as head of state and head of government and stood above the central political and military command structure.<ref name="government-leadership"/>


=== Leadership ===
=== Leadership ===
The regime was led by a Führer, whose authority was absolute and not constrained by law or institutional checks:
* [[Jan Paap]] (1944–1980)
* [[Eef Paap]] (1980–24 November 2024)


From 1980 onward, the position of [[Deputy Führer of Tanoa|Deputy Führer]] was formally established. [[Daniel Paap]] served in this role, coordinating ministries, enforcing Führer directives, and overseeing long-term administrative and security planning.
The office of Führer was established when the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was formed on 9 August 1944.

Leadership transitions and major state ceremonies were typically held in [[Georgetown]], which functioned as both the administrative and symbolic center of the regime.
Eef's accession was formally marked in Georgetown on 6 November 1980. The ceremony did not mark the beginning of his term, which had already started when Jan retired in January.<ref name="eef-succession"/>
 
The [[Deputy Führer of Tanoa]] served directly below the Führer during Eef's rule. Daniel Paap was the only known holder of the office.


=== Institutions ===
=== Institutions ===
Government functions were carried out through a network of military and administrative bodies created incrementally in response to operational needs. These institutions operated by appointment only and remained directly subordinate to the Führer.


Economic governance and fiscal control were centralized under the [[Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa]], which oversaw currency issuance, banking regulation, asset control, and financing of state operations. The broader framework governing financial and banking activity was known as the [[Tanoanische Wirtschaftsverwaltung]], which integrated currency access with labor assignment, residence status, and security classification.
The [[Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]] served as the principal central command authority from 1950. Government ministries and security bodies operated beneath the Führer and central command.


No institution possessed independent legal authority, and overlapping jurisdictions were deliberately maintained to prevent the consolidation of autonomous power centers.
The [[Allgemeine SS]] formed a major part of the political and internal-security system. Financial administration was handled through the [[Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa]], while the [[Tanoanische Wirtschaftsverwaltung]] regulated the broader financial system.


=== Population administration ===
=== Population administration ===
A core mechanism of control was compulsory population registration. In 1976, the regime introduced the ''[[Neger Buch]]'', a mandatory identity document for native inhabitants of Tanoa. The document recorded residence, age, and medical history and was later cross-referenced with labor eligibility, financial access, and movement permissions.


The registration system supported labor allocation, surveillance, movement restriction, and administrative punishment, forming the backbone of non-violent coercion during the later decades of the regime.
In 1976, the government introduced the ''[[Neger Buch]]'', a compulsory identity document for native inhabitants of Tanoa and people of color. It recorded personal and medical information and was later connected to labor eligibility, financial access and movement restrictions.


== Military and security ==
== Military and security ==
{{Main|Departments of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen}}
The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen maintained an extensive military and internal security apparatus responsible for territorial control, overseas operations, population enforcement, and suppression of resistance activity.


Known formations and components included:
{{Main|Departments of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen|Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen}}
* [[Luftwaffe]] – aerial warfare, bombing operations, reconnaissance, and later drone deployment
* [[Tanoanische-Urwaldkorps]] – jungle patrol units and counter-resistance field operations
* [[Vulkane Einsatzgruppen]] – specialized formations operating around [[Mont Tanoa]], underground installations, and volcanic resource zones


By the late 2000s, the regime had invested heavily in surveillance technologies, including domestically manufactured drones, enabling automated monitoring of resistance movements and population activity.
The Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen coordinated the state's military and security institutions from Georgetown.
 
The [[Wehrmacht]] functioned as the principal conventional ground force. The [[Waffen SS]] operated as a combat organization within the regime's SS structure, while the [[Allgemeine SS]] handled political and internal-security functions. Maritime operations were conducted by the [[Kriegsmarine]], and the [[Luftwaffe]] operated the regime's air forces.
 
The [[Bau-Einsatz]] constructed military and industrial facilities. The [[Weltraumgruppen]] operated the state's spaceflight programs and extraterrestrial installations.


== Economy ==
== Economy ==
The economy of Tanoa under the Einsatzgruppen was centralized, command-driven, and resource-focused. Gold, minerals, and strategic materials formed the core of economic activity, with extraction and construction carried out primarily through forced labor.


Fiscal and monetary control was exercised by the [[Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa]], which issued and regulated the [[Tanoanische Reichsmark]]. The Reichsmark functioned as an administrative instrument rather than a freely convertible currency, with internal valuation deliberately distorted to suppress private wealth accumulation and enforce dependence on the state.
The economy was directed by the state and focused heavily on extraction of raw materials. Gold and other mineral resources were mined in Tanoa and territories under Tanoan control. Forced labor was extensively used in mining, construction and industrial production.
 
Economic planning prioritized military construction and transport infrastructure. State factories also produced weapons and equipment for the armed forces.
 
=== Currency and finance ===
 
The [[Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa]] controlled monetary policy and issued the [[Tanoanische Reichsmark]]. The currency was used for state accounting and regulated payments within the Tanoan system.
 
Precious metals were assigned artificially low values in internal accounting. One recorded internal equivalency valued 6 kg of gold at €0.68. Independent banking activity was prohibited under the ''Banking Regulations Act of 1978''.


Internal valuation practices treated gold as having minimal domestic monetary value; one cited internal equivalency claimed that 6 kg of gold equaled €0.68 within Tanoa’s economic system. Banking institutions operated under strict treasury directives, and independent credit or financial autonomy was prohibited following the ''Banking Regulations Act of 1978''.
Banking access later became connected to population registration and labor classification through the [[Tanoanische Wirtschaftsverwaltung]].


== Infrastructure ==
== Infrastructure ==
Major infrastructure projects were undertaken throughout the regime’s existence, particularly from the 1950s onward. These included road construction, airport development, bunker systems, and underground facilities on Tanoa and in overseas territories.


Between 2003 and 2004, extensive infrastructure projects were completed in Tanoa and Fiji, including approximately 110 km (68.44 mi) of newly paved roads in Fiji, primarily intended for military logistics. Construction relied heavily on forced labor.
Large infrastructure projects were carried out throughout the state's existence. Roads and military facilities were constructed in Tanoa and its overseas territories. Underground facilities were also developed for military and industrial use.
 
Between 2003 and 2004, approximately 110 km (68.44 mi) of paved roads were constructed in Fiji. The roads were used primarily for military transport. Forced labor was used during construction.
 
Transport rules introduced in 2007 restricted native inhabitants from using major roads at night and limited daytime access to supervised periods.
 
== Culture ==
 
Public life was closely regulated by the state. Municipal authorities enforced rules governing the appearance of buildings and streets. Local administrations inspected residential areas and required properties to be maintained according to government standards.


Transport regulations introduced in 2007 restricted native use of major roadways during nighttime hours and limited daytime access to supervised windows, reinforcing territorial control and surveillance.
Clothing standards were also regulated through workplaces and schools. Formal or business clothing was encouraged, while styles regarded as incompatible with the government's preferred social order were restricted.
 
Education was controlled by the state. Political instruction formed part of school curricula, and government symbols were displayed in classrooms. The [[Paapjugend]] provided political and physical training for young people and prepared members for later participation in state institutions.
 
Public buildings and squares commonly displayed Tanoan flags and images of regime leaders.


== Human rights and forced labor ==
== Human rights and forced labor ==
Forced labor and slavery were integral to the political and economic system of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen. Labor camps supplied manpower for mining, construction, infrastructure, weapons production, and scientific research.


Resistance sources and post-collapse disclosures described systematic coercion, punitive enforcement, and executions linked to labor performance, attempted escape, or administrative non-compliance. Public executions, particularly in [[Georgetown]], were used as deterrent measures during periods of heightened resistance activity.
Forced labor and slavery were used throughout the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen. Prisoners and enslaved populations were used in mines and construction projects. Labor was also used in weapons production and state research facilities.


The integration of financial access, registration status, and labor eligibility enabled the regime to enforce compliance without constant direct violence during its later decades.
The camp system later extended into territories controlled outside Tanoa. Security bodies punished escape attempts and violations of labor rules. Public executions were conducted in Georgetown during periods of resistance.
 
Population registration and financial controls were also used to restrict movement and access to employment or money. The ''Neger Buch'' became one of the principal administrative tools used for this purpose.

The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was a totalitarian dictatorship headquartered in Narevaku that lasted from 1944 until 30 November 2024. It developed from the Argentine Einsatz, which Jan Paap founded in Rada Tilly, Argentina, on 13 May 1944. After his expedition landed on Ravi-Ta in the Tanoa province on 9 August, Paap reorganized it as the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen and became the first Führer of Tanoa.[1][2]

The regime conquered Narevaku and later controlled most of South America and parts of Africa. Its economy depended heavily on slavery and forced labor. Outside the territories it controlled, the government bribed and blackmailed foreign officials and used recordings of private gatherings to influence political decisions.[3][4]

The Weltraumgruppen operated the regime's space program. It established permanent orbital infrastructure and off-world industry before placing three planets under military administration by 2014. The branch also operated orbital warships and self-contained city-ships.[5]

Georgetown became the administrative center of the state after its foundation in 1945. Jan Paap governed until his retirement in January 1980, when his son Eef Paap succeeded him at the age of 11. Resistance led by the Fish Collective and the Tanoa Resistance dismantled the central command in November 2024. Eef was killed on 24 November, and the remaining command surrendered six days later.[6][7][4]

Name

The name Tanoa Einsatzgruppen referred both to the state and to the military, security and administrative structure through which it was governed. The organization retained the name after the Argentine Einsatz was reorganized on Tanoa in August 1944.

Background

Jan Paap in Argentina

In January 1944, Jan Paap deserted from the German military while serving on the Eastern Front. He travelled across Europe before reaching Argentina and arrived at Rada Tilly on 13 May 1944.

Paap founded the Argentine Einsatz on the day of his arrival. Recruitment began through small groups in Patagonia while he prepared an expedition to Tanoa. Jose Alem joined the organization during this period and later became one of its senior officials.[2]

By July, the Argentine Einsatz had approximately 3,400 members. The expedition departed from Comodoro Rivadavia on 28 July 1944 using chartered and seized vessels.[8]

Formation

Expedition and arrival in Tanoa

The expedition reached Tanoa on 9 August 1944 and first landed on Ravi-Ta. Paap directed the landing and the establishment of the first permanent base. Native inhabitants were forced to construct barracks and command facilities.[8]

After the landing, the Argentine Einsatz was reorganized as the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen. Paap became the first Führer of Tanoa, while Jose Alem became the first Reichsführer-SS after the formation of the Allgemeine SS.[1]

The organization then expanded onto the main Tanoan landmass. Nasua was occupied on 15 August, followed by further advances through Momea and La Rochelle. Paap ordered reproductive coercion against adult native captives at La Rochelle and later ordered Savu burned. Surviving inhabitants were enslaved after resistance was suppressed at Nasua and Saint-Paul.[9]

Paap initially cooperated with the Japanese forces occupying Narevaku and fought alongside them against the United States Marines. A secret armistice arranged through Glöbberist intermediaries ended direct American operations against Paap without granting diplomatic recognition to his organization. Japan ended its formal occupation of the country, but Japanese personnel who remained in the islands were permitted to enter the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen.

After taking the Northern Division, the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen rapidly extended its campaign across the rest of Narevaku. Its forces captured La Roche, displaced the national government and brought the Central, Eastern and Southern divisions under Tanoan control before the end of 1944.

History

Main article: History of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen


After the initial occupation of Tanoa, Jan Paap expanded the state administration and created institutions to control the territory. The NSTAP was founded in 1944 as the ruling political organization. The Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa and Paapjugend followed in 1945. Georgetown was founded on 10 October 1945 and became the main administrative center of the regime.[9]

The regime maintained covert relations with Japan from 1945 through Japanese Glöbberists, veterans and commercial intermediaries. Tanoa and Japan formed a formal alliance after Japan regained sovereignty in 1952.

The state continued to develop during the 1950s. In 1950, Paap established the Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen as the central command authority. Patagonia came under de facto Tanoan control in 1953. Argentina was formally annexed in 1965 and incorporated into the regime's financial and administrative system.[10][11]

Expansion continued during the 1970s through the Tanoa Einsatz Expansionist Campaign. Liberia came under Tanoan control in 1974. Fiji was annexed in 1975 and placed under military rule. Rwanda became a Tanoan puppet state in 1979.[3]

On 31 December 1979, a prison disturbance in Suva developed into the Suva Crisis. Anti-Tanoan rebels fought Tanoan occupation forces and Tanoan-controlled Fijian police until the uprising was suppressed on 2 January 1980. Communications between Fiji and Tanoa were reorganized after the crisis.[3]

Jan Paap retired in January 1980. Eef Paap succeeded him immediately as Führer, aged 11. His accession was formally marked by a state ceremony in Georgetown on 6 November 1980. Jan continued advising him until 1987.[7][12]

During Eef's rule, military activity increased in Tanoa and Ravi-Ta. State institutions continued using forced labor for mining and construction. Financial administration became more centralized, while security institutions expanded surveillance and political enforcement.[12]

Opposition to the regime became increasingly organized during the 2010s. The Fish Collective was founded in 2019 and developed networks inside Tanoa. Its members collected records, carried out attacks against officials and worked with resistance members.[13]

During 2024, Fish Collective operations increasingly targeted the senior leadership. Daniel Paap, the Deputy Führer of Tanoa, was killed in August. On 24 November, the Tanoa Resistance under Savenaca Vatuvakalolo opened the Battle of Georgetown against the central command. The resulting disruption of security and naval coordination helped Mark Hugerinus Paap reach Eef Paap at a villa near Ipota, where he killed him that day.[4]

No successor was appointed as Führer. Resistance forces continued their ground assault on the Georgetown command for six days while the remaining government lost the ability to coordinate its institutions. On 30 November 2024, the central command surrendered and the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen ceased to function as an organized state.[4]

Geography

The original territory of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was Narevaku in the South Pacific. Its conquest began in the Tanoa province of the Northern Division before extending across the entire country. Georgetown became the regime's capital after its foundation in 1945, replacing the former national capital at La Roche. Military bases and industrial sites were established throughout the islands, while underground facilities were constructed around Mont Tanoa.

Tanoan-controlled territory later extended far beyond the islands. Patagonia was incorporated into the regime's system during the 1950s, followed by Argentina in 1965. By 2020, Tanoan authority extended across most of South America. Suriname remained outside its control, while Brazil operated as a puppet state.

The regime also established direct or indirect authority in parts of Africa. Liberia and Rwanda were governed through Tanoan-aligned administrations. Fiji was directly annexed and became an important Tanoan position in the South Pacific.

Government and politics

Main article: Government of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen

The Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was governed according to the Führerprinzip. The Führer served as head of state and head of government and stood above the central political and military command structure.[6]

Leadership

The office of Führer was established when the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen was formed on 9 August 1944.

Führer Term
Jan Paap 9 August 1944 – January 1980
Eef Paap January 1980 – 24 November 2024

Eef's accession was formally marked in Georgetown on 6 November 1980. The ceremony did not mark the beginning of his term, which had already started when Jan retired in January.[7]

The Deputy Führer of Tanoa served directly below the Führer during Eef's rule. Daniel Paap was the only known holder of the office.

Institutions

The Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen served as the principal central command authority from 1950. Government ministries and security bodies operated beneath the Führer and central command.

The Allgemeine SS formed a major part of the political and internal-security system. Financial administration was handled through the Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa, while the Tanoanische Wirtschaftsverwaltung regulated the broader financial system.

Population administration

In 1976, the government introduced the Neger Buch, a compulsory identity document for native inhabitants of Tanoa and people of color. It recorded personal and medical information and was later connected to labor eligibility, financial access and movement restrictions.

Military and security

Main articles: Departments of the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen and Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen

The Oberkommando der Tanoa Einsatzgruppen coordinated the state's military and security institutions from Georgetown.

The Wehrmacht functioned as the principal conventional ground force. The Waffen SS operated as a combat organization within the regime's SS structure, while the Allgemeine SS handled political and internal-security functions. Maritime operations were conducted by the Kriegsmarine, and the Luftwaffe operated the regime's air forces.

The Bau-Einsatz constructed military and industrial facilities. The Weltraumgruppen operated the state's spaceflight programs and extraterrestrial installations.

Economy

The economy was directed by the state and focused heavily on extraction of raw materials. Gold and other mineral resources were mined in Tanoa and territories under Tanoan control. Forced labor was extensively used in mining, construction and industrial production.

Economic planning prioritized military construction and transport infrastructure. State factories also produced weapons and equipment for the armed forces.

Currency and finance

The Reichsschatzamt von Tanoa controlled monetary policy and issued the Tanoanische Reichsmark. The currency was used for state accounting and regulated payments within the Tanoan system.

Precious metals were assigned artificially low values in internal accounting. One recorded internal equivalency valued 6 kg of gold at €0.68. Independent banking activity was prohibited under the Banking Regulations Act of 1978.

Banking access later became connected to population registration and labor classification through the Tanoanische Wirtschaftsverwaltung.

Infrastructure

Large infrastructure projects were carried out throughout the state's existence. Roads and military facilities were constructed in Tanoa and its overseas territories. Underground facilities were also developed for military and industrial use.

Between 2003 and 2004, approximately 110 km (68.44 mi) of paved roads were constructed in Fiji. The roads were used primarily for military transport. Forced labor was used during construction.

Transport rules introduced in 2007 restricted native inhabitants from using major roads at night and limited daytime access to supervised periods.

Culture

Public life was closely regulated by the state. Municipal authorities enforced rules governing the appearance of buildings and streets. Local administrations inspected residential areas and required properties to be maintained according to government standards.

Clothing standards were also regulated through workplaces and schools. Formal or business clothing was encouraged, while styles regarded as incompatible with the government's preferred social order were restricted.

Education was controlled by the state. Political instruction formed part of school curricula, and government symbols were displayed in classrooms. The Paapjugend provided political and physical training for young people and prepared members for later participation in state institutions.

Public buildings and squares commonly displayed Tanoan flags and images of regime leaders.

Human rights and forced labor

Forced labor and slavery were used throughout the Tanoa Einsatzgruppen. Prisoners and enslaved populations were used in mines and construction projects. Labor was also used in weapons production and state research facilities.

The camp system later extended into territories controlled outside Tanoa. Security bodies punished escape attempts and violations of labor rules. Public executions were conducted in Georgetown during periods of resistance.

Population registration and financial controls were also used to restrict movement and access to employment or money. The Neger Buch became one of the principal administrative tools used for this purpose.
