Zhenian Military Administration in Niunkuet

The military administration in Niunkuet (Zhenian: 은주 군정청; pronounced Eunju Gunjeongcheong) was an occupation authority established by the First Zhenian Republic during the Second Great War with the primary purpose of administering occupied Niun territories under Zhenian military control. It existed in tandem with the Republic of Niunkuet, which nominally retained control over all former Niun territories south of the Chang River but was in practice controlled by a Zhenian military government.

Zhenian administration over Niunkuet ended with the Liberation of Niunkuet towards the later stages of the Second Great War, although both the military administration and the Republic of Niunkuet formally existed until September 1537, despite having lost a vast majority of its territories by then.

Oppression
In adherence to the intention of the Zhenian high command to eventually fully annex former Niun territories into mainland Zhenia, a policy of strong assimilation was initially intended to be practiced throughout the military administration.

Niun workers, as well as hundreds of thousands of Niun, were transferred to mainland Zhenia under a policy known as Administrative Order 661, which came to action on August 1, 1531. The administrative order commandeered hundreds of thousands of Niun workers and prisoners of war against their will into Zhenian factories, railroads and fields to support the Zhenian war effort.

At an attempt to strengthen the military administration's rule in occupied zones, the White Shirts Union, consisting of former Zhenian units and Niun collaborators, was established shortly after the Fall of Tienkin. The White Shirts Union served as an informal state security service of the military administration, being partly tasked with maintaining order in occupied zones as well as the suppression of partisan and resistance forces in such zones. Despite being an informal organization, they reported directly to the Military Governor and thus were allowed to use all forms of violence to suppress Niun resistance movements, making them synonymous to death in some Niun contexts.
