History
During the 1840's, members of the LDS church, who felt threatened by the US government, fled to the area near the Great Salt Lake. While they supported being independent, they were annexed by the US after the Mexican-America War. During the Civil War, the Utah and Arizona territories seceded, forming the Republic of Deseret. It became fully independent after the CSA won the Civil War. Despite being a republic, it was largely controlled by the LDS church. As the LDS church became less and less popular, people eventually lost support for the government. During the Gret Depression, the government was overthrown by non-Mormons. They formed the more democratic republic of New Deseret, where the LDS church had far less power. Because of this, many Mormons became disenfranchised with the current government, and started petitioning for the independence of the largely Mormon state of Utah.
