Background

In the year of 4050, The Empire of Domz was officially introduced. The formation of this extremely large and extremely wealthy Empire was the result of a peace agreement (The Treaty of Caxilan, signed by Domz himself in Domz City, 4049) between over 250 nations after a millenia of war. Most notable of these 250 nations were: The Republic of Zyzz, The Republic of Vvardenfalia, and The Republic of Jey. This peace was seldom seen, unfortunately. Although Caxilan, on paper, was supposed to unify over 250 nations, this could not be done. Caxilan granted political power (in the form of monarchies) to the former presidents of these nations, but little of these leaders could cope with no longer being in full and complete control. As such, political, moral, and social views inevitably clashed. No document, not even Caxilan, which was thought to be the most powerful treaty in history, could form a 250+ nation alliance incorporating an area over ten times that of the 1985 Soviet Union. This clash of beliefs led to the Domz War.

Domz War

Drew Domz, now our benevolent and loving leader, was the center of the deadliest and most terrible war in recent memory. Domz, who was elected the Emperor of the Domz Empire in 4050, condemned the actions of certian monarchies which violated certain aspects of the Treaty of Caxilan. After suspicions arose about the wrongdoings of these nations, Domz launched an investigation to determine if the accusations were true. It was discovered that 78 monarchies were guilty of using military drafts to bulk up their strength. (This violated Section 2, Paragraph 14, Article II of the Treaty of Caxilan, which states "Use of military drafts are hereby abolished").

The Emperor, refusing to accept any insubordination from the monarchies, announced that if they do not release the unwilling participants of these drafts, the Imperial Army of the Domz Empire would be set in force. Only 3 monarchies complied to the order and removed the unwilling participants.

True to his word, Emperor Domz unleased 2.5 million troops upon the offending monarchies in August, 4051. Understanding the inevitable defeat, the 78 monarchies (which were, consequently enough, all adjacent to one another in terms of political boundaries) erased the state boundaries between them to form one nation, The Grenevan Territories, with one goal--secede from the empire and remove themselves from the "oppressing" Treaty of Caxilan.

Outraged at the thought of secession, Domz was merciless in the Domz War. Slaughtering over 3.4 million of the Grenevan soldiers (unwilling or not, though some surrendered claiming they were forced into participation) and loosing 1.9 million of his own troops, Drew Domz was the center of the bloodiest battle to date. Thousands of protests surrounded Domz throughout this 4 year war, most of which condemned the though of killing the soldiers who didn't want to be in this war at all. Domz shrugged this off, knowing that if he let these monarchies secede, it would render Caxilan meaningless.

In the end, the monarchies were defeated, but this war prooved to only help the opinion of the monarchies, rather then Domz. In 4060, the Treaty of Caxilan was destryoed after an Empire-wide vote on the effectiveness of the treaty. As a result the formally 250+ nations would move into just 64 nations. Most notably, the Republic of Jey returned, the Republic of Zyzz, and the Republic of Vvardenfalia. The new peace agreement, The Peace of Qualo, though, would grant independence to a certain land--The Grenevan Territories. Outraged at the thought that over 5 million men had lost their lives in the war for nothing, Domz immediately protested the article. Instead of the Grenevan Territory's dissolvement, it was agreed that, as the Emperor, Domz was granted a seat of power in all of the 64 nations, though he would not be their leader. He was asked to become the leader of the Republic of Jey and accepted. Though still dissatisfied with Qualo, and still of the belief that his men had died for nothing because of Qualo, Domz is our leader to this day and the third-in-command of 63 other nations.

Jey's Early History

As the debates over the Treaty of Quali cooled and the new 64 nations began solidifying their independance, The Grenevan Territories struck again, showing their true intention--assassinating Domz. A Grenevan Army Unit of 15,000 men marched accross the Jevian border in 4101 into Domz City, and into the capitol buidling. They marched into Domz's office and found nothing. Seconds earlier, he had been evacuated and was already in the air, 10 miles away. The survivors of the invasion of Domz City rushed out of the capitol building as artillery demolished it, killing all of the Grenevan soldiers. As news reached the Emperor of The Grenevan Territories, Ka'il Falshone, that the assassination was unsuccessful, he realized the great threat that arouse from not only Jey, but all other nations of the former Empire. Jey allied with 60 nations of the former Empire and threw an all-out assault on The Grenevan Territories in 4102. Within 2 weeks, the country fell. Less than 2 million men were lost in the War of Grenevan Succession, a small amount when compared to The Domz War. Jey immediately annexed all lands of Greneva, and called on its allies to join the union of the Allied Empire of Jey. Under the newest treaty, The Peace of Domz, 55 of the 60 allies agreed, and appointed a Parliamentary Bureaucracy system, still with Domz at the head. Each nation now became a state of the Allied Empire of Jey, and its leader became a member of Parliament, who voted on issues, pending approval from Domz. The former Empire of Domz, in 4105 was then consisted of 9 nations--an extremely large Allied Empire of Jey, and 8 other nations that refused to re-join the Union. As of 4150, the Peace of Domz is still in effect and still working. 3 of the nations that refused to re-join the Union have already become part of the Allied Empire, and all other nations have hinted that they may do the same. Through Domz's unwavering committment to his Empire, we have been able to hold together and become one of the greatest Empires ever. Praise Lord Domz!

Jey Today

Jey's current conditions are extremely promising. Through Jey's major exports of Arms Manufacturing, other military utilities, and Automobile Manufacturing, the economy is booming. The unemployment and crime rates are relatively low, and the citizens enjoy massive political freedoms and human rights from Emperor Domz. For more information on our major exporting companies and governmental policies and administrations, see below.

Recent Updates

Our military currently maintains control over large portions of land around the Empire. The Empire's military has assumed authority over half of the Grenevan Territories, which pose little threat to the life of Domz nor the Empire itself anymore. With the oceans around the Empire receding, large areas of land are now being discovered and inhabited by Jey. The Empire is growing quickly, and with Domz's approval rating at an all-time high of 89.7%, there seems to be nothing that can halt our growth.

The most recent activity in Jey occured on January 12th, 4155. On this day, the Republic of Zyzz officially ceded their territory to the Allied Empire of Jey. In exchange for this, Jey sent to the now Jevian State of Zyzz military protection and a considerable sum of money. Zyzz will remin partially independent of Jey's government until March 1st, when Domz and the administration will assume full control. The number of countries remaining from the previous empire that have not yet rejoined is now 4.

Government

The Government of Jey is comprised of 5 branches: Presidential, Executive, Legislative, Judicial, and International. Each branch is comprised of citizens of a certain political party.

Political Parties

To receive recognition from the Jevian Government, a political party must have at least one member in one of the following governmental organizations, and must have at least .1% of the total vote tally. Currently, 8 parties meet these requirements.

Presidential Branch

Drew Domz is the head of the Presidential branch of the government. In terms of power, the Presidential Branch is the ultimate authority, with the power to overrule decisions by the executive branch, and the ability to submit new proposals to the executive branch, without consent of the Legislature. The Presidential Branch is comprised of the Emperor, Deputy Emperor, and 13 Cabinet Members, all selected by the Emperor. Upon an Emperor's death, Jey hold's an Emperical Election, in which every vote-bearing citizen (those of the 16th year of age) is asked to cast a vote upon 5 candidates. After an Emperor is elected, he selects his Deputy, and his Cabinet Members, who serve until either the death of the emperor or their own death (whichever occurs first), and all of which are subject to approval of the Executives, thus making the Presidential Branch.

The following are the members of the Presidential Branch, in order of decreasing rank:

Executive and Legislative Branches

The Executive Branch of government is comprised of 65 Jevian Executives (JE), one for each official state, all of which are voted on by the people of the respective state. The JEs retain the power to ratify bills passed by the HOJR into law, treaties, Cabinet Members, and Deputy Emperors. The JEs serve a 5 year term.

The Legislative Branch of government is comprised of 139 citizens in the House of Jevian Representatives (HOJR), two for each official state, and one for each officially recognized Jevian Territorial Area. The HOJR retains the ability to pass bills to the JEs to potentially become law, and propose ammendments and repeals. Members of the HOJR serve a 3 year term.

The following is a listing of all the JEs and the HOJRs (Background colors represent the aforementioned political parties, and the (UN) tag designated a representative that is a member of the JUNR):

The following are the Representatives from the Territories of Jey:

Judicial Branch

The Judicial Branch of the government is comprised by elected judges of the Jevian High Court (JHC). The 10-member court is elected by all the vote-bearing citizens of Jey, the Most Honorable Judge is elected by the fellow Judges, and all serve life-long terms. The JHC retains the ability to decide on the court issues of the highest importance, and set precendents on how future cases of the same issue may be handled.

The following judges comprise the JHC:

International Branch

The International Branch of government does not concern itself with Jevian internal issues, but rather international affairs, hence the name. Most of the Branch is comprized of the 8 citizens of the Jevian UN Representatives (JUNR), who discuss UN proposals to be submitted by Jey, and decide which proposals to endorse and vote For/Against. Drew Domz is the head of the JUNR, which pass a Jevian Endorsement for a proposal by a majority vote (5/8) and decides on "At Vote" by a 6/8 vote. The other members of the JUNR are named from the HOJR.

The following citizens comprise the JUNR:

For information on the achievements of the International Branch, see United Nations Involvement.

The remaining portion of the International Branch is comprized of ambassadors, usually one ambassador is assigned to each nation of Jey's region. There is no official listing of Jevian Ambassadors (JAs).

Geography

Military Companies

Presently, Jey maintains one of the largest Armed Divisions in the world, the Jevian Commanding Forces. Working behind the scenes is the company which exports the largest amount of professional firearms on the globe for our grand army -- Jevian Arms League.

Jevian Commanding Forces

Containing Invasion Forces, Defensive Forces, Special Operations Units, Air Forces, and Naval Forces, the JCF employs over 95% of Jey's official standing military units, whose top Generals report directly to Emperor Domz. For more information, visit the Jevian Commanding Forces page.

Jevian Arms League

The JCF receives their armed capabilities from the Jevian Arms League. Producing over 2 million handguns and light weaponry daily, the JAL is the world's leading arms manufacturing company. Providing not only the rifles for our troops, the JAL constructs all the materials used by the JCF--from airfields to vessels to intelligence buildings, as well as sending numerous other nations with miltary help through exports. The JAL's President is also under the authority of Emperor Domz. For more information, visit the Jevian Arms League page.

Religious Organizations

As The Allied Empire of Jey currently provides no federal spending to any religious organization and taxes them just the same as other companies, religious organizations find trouble in amassing followers.
