During Pieter Kristiansen's presidency within the Coalition of National Reform and Unity (CRNU), efforts to establish the [[Association of North American Nations|Association of North American Nations (ANAN)]] were expedited, with a significant focus on addressing the Westerzee Troubles. In 1951, ANAN was officially formed; one of its first international actions undertaken was support and intervention in Westerzee. |

The ANAN identified the [[Amerikaens Free State]], situated southwest of Tussenland, as a key player fueling the Westerzee Troubles, allegedly with support from the National Republican Party of [[Russia]]. In response, an ANAN coalition intervention took place in 1953 within the Amerikaens Free State. This intervention successfully ousted the Goudpaerdt family dictatorship from power, establishing a new government aligned with ANAN interests in the region. |

==== Expansion of the Tussenlander manufacturing industry ==== |
|||
Due to the enactment of stricter labor laws in neighboring [[New Netherland]] in the late 1940s, Tussenland gained an economic advantage in manufacturing, with many New Netherlander companies outsourcing industrial and manufacturing work to the the central corridor region. This led to the high productivity of Tussenlander manufacturing and exporter companies, and created many jobs in Tussenland as a whole. |
|||
However, unlike New Netherlander companies, Tussenlander companies reinvested their earnings into expanding industry, and hiring more workers, instead of increasing wages. This led to a high increase of productivity, while household income grew slower but more steadily compared to New Netherland. This would prevent Tussenland from suffering the same wage-price spiral and high inflation New Netherland experienced throughout the 1950s-1960s. |

New labor laws were introduced by Woon's cabinet to strike a balance between the demands of the workforce and the needs of businesses. Government representatives, employers, and labor unions, collaboratively set fair wage standards, working conditions, and dispute resolution mechanisms, intended to foster a cooperative environment. |

However, Woon's labor reforms were seen as milder than those of neighboring [[New Netherland]]'s reforms, preventing uncontrolled wage and price inflation. |
