The Republic of JRV was formed on February 7th 1900 when the states of Joy, Riches and Victory joined in union. Located in the Golden Hills region, JRV is a predominately libertarian country, which preaches tolerance in society and actively supports big business.

Today the country has a large and rapidly growing economy, with a population of nearly 2 billion people. A strong and well-funded military rarely engages in any action apart from peacekeeping.

Governance of the Republic

Federal Parliament is largely in control of the country, taking care of the day to day affairs but a higher, executive body is charged with the over-all running of JRV. Consisting of supreme ministers and headed by a chancellor, the National Chancellery is elected and appointed by parliament.

Geography

Under construction.

National Holidays

Joy day - December 1st

In honour of the former Republic of Joy, ungrateful and spoiled children eagerly receive presents from family and friends. Wine cellars across the land are raided; prisoners for petty crimes are released. Weirdoes in purple dinosaur suit parade through the streets singing and scaring youngsters.

Riches day - December 2nd

Riches day was created in honor of the former Republic of Riches. On this day each year the more wealthy JRV citizens are expected to ride in floats through the cities towns, showering the less fortunate with dollar bills and shiny coins. Police turn a blind eye to petty criminals and hundreds of businesses go bankrupt each year.

Victory day - December 3rd

The day after riches day is victory day, a day designed to celebrate the former Republic of Victory in 12 hours of non-stop and action packed military exercises. Each year a structure that no one likes is selected by vote and blown up on national TV -- in 2003 the Federal Parliament building selected by overwhelming popular demand (no politicians were harmed).

Clean up and Unity day - December 4th

Everyone unites, is given a shovel and made to clean up after the hectic 3 days of celebrations.
