In early February 1912, the Lido-Dregolesian militia captured Mirgorod and Chashavinsk. Not a whole month later, on March 15th 1912, the Republic of Dregolesia separated from Lido under the lead of Oleg Syvirianovich. However, the newly formed state was very unstable and quickly after fell into a civil war. On 11th of June 1912, monarchist forces supported by the Kingdom of Geklinia took control over northern territories, establishing a Kingdom of Northern Dregolesia. 4 days later, on 15th of June 1912, anarchist forces rose up south of Molvaty mountains, but failed to capture any major city. Communist revolutionaries rose up on 29th of June 1912 in the industrialized region of Bir and Mizhrichkavsk. The nationalist government managed to defend the most important cities, including the state's capital - Chashavinsk. On 23rd of July 1912, the communist militia organized the Mezhova massacre, where 298 men were caught, sentenced for treason against the communist regime and murdered. The Kingdom of Northern Dregolesia managed to secure major part of Chashavinsk-Ivaniv railway line, which was crucial for the nationalist army on the coast. The Anarchist army finally managed to break nationalist defences in Rychavsk and captured the city on 31st of August 1912, not long after, they were met with communist revolutionaries coming from the north. Bloody battles took place in the suburbs of the city, that lasted for several weeks, when the anarchists, without much support had to retreat and leave the city on 21st of September 1912.

As of June 2023 Ulano-Lorande has 11 production lines worldwide, producing rolling stock for countless tram, metro and railway systems.
Roads
The road network of Geklinia-Dregolesia comprises six highways, several expressways, and many lower-classification roads.

There are six international airports in Geklinia-Dregolesia, two of which (Chashavinsk and Dobrzanka) can handle intercontinental flights. The main state airline is GekLines headquartered in Zygmuntów, which also owns Aviakompaniya Dregolot.
Demographics
In June 2023, Geklinia-Dregolesia's population was estimated to be around 16.2 million by the Royal Statistics Office, with the fertility rate slowly declining in recent years. Since 2021, when the recorded fertility rate was 1.79, it has dropped to 1.71 children per woman in 2023. The country's population is centered around big urban areas, as over 5 million people reside in the metropolitan areas of the biggest cities. Overall population density is around 122 inhabitants per sq kilometer. The government of Geklinia-Dregolesia is trying to stop the urbanization of the country by various pro-agricultural social programmes and laws.
The major hubs of Geklinia-Dregolesia are Chashavinsk (1.6 million), Dobranka (1.2 million), Moremir (0.8 million), Bogan (0.6 million) and Nedelica (0.5 million). These five urban centres create the core of the kingdom's transportation network.
Geklinia-Dregolesia is in majority formed by two nationalities: Dregolesians and Geklin-Lechians. The former slightly outnumber Geklin-Lechians by around one million people, this has caused serious issues in the past, as the power was held by the smaller group of people. This has changed after 1965 Dregolesian Revolution, which brought major changes to the country's government structure. From then on, there has been a lot of pressure to popularize a Geklin-Dregolesian identity with which citizens could represent themselves. On the most recent statistics 73% of the population declare themselves as Geklin-Dregolesians, with 63% choosing Geklin-Lechian as a subidentity, 28% Dregolesians and the remaining 5% choosing other minority subidentities.
The kingdom has seen a drop in immigration since early 2000s. Before that it has been a destination for Surians and Dregovnians, but since the economic situation in these countries is equalizing to that of Geklinia-Dregolesia, less and less people come to work in the country. The trend is reversed when it comes to emmigration. In search of better living standards, Geklin-Dregolesians often emmigrate to countries such as Lechia, Plevia or Ohemia. According to KUS, in 2023, around 4000 people immigrated to UKGD, while around 13000 emmigrated to a different country.
