==Nation Entry==
+
The Imperial Government of the Divine Prussian Empire of Derscon, centred in the Holy Tsar granted power by the Everlasting Grace and Glory of God.
The Divine Prussian Empire of Derscon is a massive, economically powerful nation, renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.282 billion are either ruled by a small, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
+
  
The government -- a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass -- is mainly concerned with Defence, although Law & Order and Religion & Spirituality are secondary priorities. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Uranium Mining and Beef-Based Agriculture.
+
==Overview==
 +
[http://www.sipan.org/~peter/NationStates/Tracker/index.php?nation=Derscon Economic Overview]
  
Derscon's army is full of 2 metre tall super-soldiers, voting is voluntary, euthanasia is illegal, and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Derscon's national animal is the Prussian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Reichsmark.
+
The government of Derscon is predominantly a Divine Right Monarchy. However, in reality, the Dersconi government is a complex mix of feudalism, federalism, republicanism, democracy, and monarchy. A general rule of thumb is that the larger the constitutency, the more autocractic the governance. At the local level, direct democracy is often found, especially in the north, where the tribal ways of living are still present. At the provincial level, a form of parliamentary monarchy is most likely to be found. At the State level, the royalty is well-present, all but four states being ruled by nobles that answer to the Tsar. Of course, at the Imperial level, it is the Tsar.
  
{| align=right border=1
+
The Imperial government reigns supreme over all other decisions, and supercedes all other forms of law. The nobility of Derscon is not answerable to the normal law. Instead, a special court system and law code is established for the nobility. The Tsar, however, is outside all jurisdiction -- be it local, provincial, state, Imperial, or international.

For the most part, The Divine Prussian Empire has never been an out-going nation in terms of foreign policy.

 +
===The Greater Prussian Empire===
 +
(See: [[Greater Prussia]])
 +
 
 +
The nations of The Greater Prussian Empire recieve the closest benefits of the Dersconi Empire. All Prussian nations, along with the mandatory Free Trade and mutual defence pacts, recieve Most Favoured Nation status. Also, all citizen travel restrictions are suspended, save the need for a passport. All Prussian leaders have their own private suites in the Grand Kremlin Palace, and most Prussian leaders own estates in Derscon somewhere.

 +
===The Hermes Alliance===
 +
 
 +
The Hermes Alliance is an alliance created by New Haven and Bryn Shander in the wake of the split with the Concordat, which was founded for the same purpose but was corrupted by Midlonia. The Hermes Alliance is primarily focused on transportation and trade, with the Project Hermes Hyperspace Gate Network being the primary means to that end. However, the security of the network and its technology is paramount, so the mutual defense of all member nations is a required tenant of the alliance as is a blacklist of nations that are a threat to the stability and security of the alliance, its members, and the network. The Hermes Alliance is also fully democratic, with all member entries and decisions being decided on with a vote between the member nations.

The Government is entirely rested in the Crown, granted by Divine Right by the Grace of God. It is currently occupied by the Andropov House. After the death of Rekjyavich Ivan Andropov III, and the ascention of Alexei to the throne, the Rekjyavich and Andropov Houses split. The old House of Romanov was exiled to Scodson in the Second Catholic War.
+
(See: [[ESUS]])
  
For almost three thousand years, the government of Derscon has been an absolute monarchy. Before the monarchy, the Dersconi Republic governed the vast territories, but its ineptness in governing and failure in the Sith Wars allowe dGeneral Ivan Andropov the Great to rally the people after the Sith Wars and overthrow the Republic. However, during the reign of Rekjyavich Ivan Andropov III, a Reichskongress was established, but when the current Czar took the throne, it was immediately dissolved.
+
The Extra-Solar Union of Systems, a long-established intergalactic alliance, has had close friendships with the Divine Prussian Empire since its entry into space. It was only a matter of time until Derscon became a full-fledged member.
  
The Government has gone through many changes through civil wars and family disputes, the most famous being the Sith Wars and the Catholic Wars. The Sith Wars were, in a nutshell, the wars in which Derscon was born. The Sith invasion of Derscon was a rally point in which General Ivan Andropov the Great destroyed the Sith armies and eventually overthrew the Republic that governed the land, and established the monarchy almost three thousand years ago.
+
===Anti-Furry Alliance===
  
The Catholic Wars, again, in a nutshell, were the wars fought between the Rekjyavich and Andropov House and the current house in power, the Romanovs. The result was the exile of the Romanov House and the establishment of the Protestant Monarchy.

(See: [[Anti-Furry Alliance]])
  
==Society==
+
The Anti-Furry Alliance was officially founded by the nation of Bryn Shander, but jointly established by Bryn Shander, Questers, New Haven, and Derscon. It's purpose is to expunge the galaxy of the plague of Furry-ism.

==Economy==

===Other Treaty Alliances===
The Economy usually consisted of Arms Manufacturing in one form or another as a major industry, as Derscon has always been a military nation, seen by the fact it is run by a giant military base.

The nation of Derscon is entirely self-sufficient, relying on no one to survive. Luxury items are imported, such as foregin cars, etc, but high tarrifs are placed on them to level the playing field, or in some cases, insure people buy Dersconi goods. The Greater Prussian Emprie maintains a strong Free Market Policy within itself, though, in which all Greater Prussian States must have a Free Trade system amongst the other Greater Prussian States.
+
(This article is subject to my OOC memory, which is about as good as a goldfish's)
  
The economy was virtually non-existant due to the multiple civil wars for many years until the Rekjyavich House finally overthrew the Romanovs. Since then, the Economy continued to boom.

"Treaty Alliances" refers to alliances forged by nations through treaties of some sort. Treaty alliances can be from the all-encompassing to simply the free trade agreement and/or an embassy exchange.
  
Although it has had many slumps, no real depression ever came across Derscon. The Average economy was "Thriving" during its early stages, but it slumped to "Very Good" for awhile during the Hutu Wars. Upon those ending, the economy rose to "Frightening" and stayed there ever since.

Government

The Imperial Government of the Divine Prussian Empire of Derscon, centred in the Holy Tsar granted power by the Everlasting Grace and Glory of God.

Overview

Economic Overview

The government of Derscon is predominantly a Divine Right Monarchy. However, in reality, the Dersconi government is a complex mix of feudalism, federalism, republicanism, democracy, and monarchy. A general rule of thumb is that the larger the constitutency, the more autocractic the governance. At the local level, direct democracy is often found, especially in the north, where the tribal ways of living are still present. At the provincial level, a form of parliamentary monarchy is most likely to be found. At the State level, the royalty is well-present, all but four states being ruled by nobles that answer to the Tsar. Of course, at the Imperial level, it is the Tsar.

The Imperial government reigns supreme over all other decisions, and supercedes all other forms of law. The nobility of Derscon is not answerable to the normal law. Instead, a special court system and law code is established for the nobility. The Tsar, however, is outside all jurisdiction -- be it local, provincial, state, Imperial, or international.

Derscon does not hold any international law or court system to be binding in Derscon.

Current Government

The government of Derscon is centred in the Kæsþiöndhrír Empyeral Kremlin Palace. While there are seperate buildings in Rekjyavich-Andropov Military City for the ministries, the offices are technically centred in the KEKP itself.

Imperator

His Most Eminent Majestic Highness Tsar Xavier Alexeitovich Caesar Agustus Andropov II, Fedei Defensor, Par la Grâce de Dieu; Ambrosial Seraph of the Divine Prussian Empire of Derscon, Arch-Chancellor of the Greater Prussian Empire, Leath-Ri of the Redemption Isles, Veliky Kralj of the Eternal Empire, Khšaçapavan of the Covanent of God, Knight Commander and Dragon Master of the IOI, Gloeihdamae

Chancellor

The Chancellery is the office of running the day-to-day affairs of the Dersconi government, and houses the Council of Ministers. However, since the reign of Tsar Rekjyavich Ivan Andropov II and the permanent dismissal of the Reichskongress, the Chancellery has remained vacant, the powers of the Chancellery and the seat of the Imperial Overseer going to the Monarch.

The Cabinet

Technically under the Chancellery, since the de facto abolishment of the Reichskongress and the Chancellery, they have retained their status as a full Imperial Organization, and report directly to the Tsar. Technically chaired by the Grand Chancellor, since the reign of Tsar Rekjyavich Ivan Andropov II, that power, as stated, has rested with the Monarch.

  • Commander in Chief of the Schutzstaffel: Reichsmarshal Reinhard Helmer

Foreign Policy

For the most part, The Divine Prussian Empire has never been an out-going nation in terms of foreign policy. However, since the reign of Tsar Alexei Alexandrovich Andropov XIV, Derscon has taken a much more open stance towards the rest of the world, while still maintaining a relative distrust to those nations not associated with the Empire itself.

The Divine Prussian Empire of Derscon generally classifies all nations under one of the following categories, in order from closely related to utterly despised.

Friendly Nations/Organizations

The following are those nations/organizations with a friendly relationship with the Empire.

The Greater Prussian Empire

(See: Greater Prussia)

The nations of The Greater Prussian Empire recieve the closest benefits of the Dersconi Empire. All Prussian nations, along with the mandatory Free Trade and mutual defence pacts, recieve Most Favoured Nation status. Also, all citizen travel restrictions are suspended, save the need for a passport. All Prussian leaders have their own private suites in the Grand Kremlin Palace, and most Prussian leaders own estates in Derscon somewhere.

The Hermes Alliance

The Hermes Alliance is an alliance created by New Haven and Bryn Shander in the wake of the split with the Concordat, which was founded for the same purpose but was corrupted by Midlonia. The Hermes Alliance is primarily focused on transportation and trade, with the Project Hermes Hyperspace Gate Network being the primary means to that end. However, the security of the network and its technology is paramount, so the mutual defense of all member nations is a required tenant of the alliance as is a blacklist of nations that are a threat to the stability and security of the alliance, its members, and the network. The Hermes Alliance is also fully democratic, with all member entries and decisions being decided on with a vote between the member nations.

NATO

(See: NATO)

Derscon is a recent addition to the New Alliance Treaty Organization, allied with prominent members such as Sigma Octavius, Automagfreek, and Scandavian States.

IOI

The IOI is a relatively secret organization helped founded by Derscon.

(more later upon declassification)

ESUS

(See: ESUS)

The Extra-Solar Union of Systems, a long-established intergalactic alliance, has had close friendships with the Divine Prussian Empire since its entry into space. It was only a matter of time until Derscon became a full-fledged member.

Anti-Furry Alliance

(See: Anti-Furry Alliance)

The Anti-Furry Alliance was officially founded by the nation of Bryn Shander, but jointly established by Bryn Shander, Questers, New Haven, and Derscon. It's purpose is to expunge the galaxy of the plague of Furry-ism.

Other Treaty Alliances

(This article is subject to my OOC memory, which is about as good as a goldfish's)

"Treaty Alliances" refers to alliances forged by nations through treaties of some sort. Treaty alliances can be from the all-encompassing to simply the free trade agreement and/or an embassy exchange.

The majority of the nations of the universe fall here. Most nations Derscon has never interacted with, therefore doesn't care one way or another about them. However, some do grab the attention of the Empire, and usually not in a good way. However, very few nations ever actually do enough stupid things to make it on Derscon's blacklist.

The Blacklist

The blacklist is the list of those nations that, upon mention, bring a nasty taste into the mouth of a Dersconi. These are nations that most Dersconis wouldn't even blink if they suddenly went away. Dersconi people, government or private, are completely forbidden from associating with them for any reason.
