Full Name - The Republic of Ambrella

The Republic of Ambrella was recognized as an independent nation inside Ohio in 1996 by the United States of America. It is known as a vacationing spot for conservative Americans, and its borders are primarily within Montgomery and Greene counties in what used to be part of Ohio. It is divided into three city sections, Rainz (the capital, home to the government, businesses, and small apartments), Ambrella Heights (the residential district), and Ambrella Grove (tourist town and national park).


Ambrellese Independence

As stated above, Ambrella was granted its independence in 1996 from the USA. It was a peacefull transaction, and no blows were exchanged. The specific date power was exchanged between President Clinton of the USA and Temp Pres John Kainey of the Ambrellese Independence Organization was July 4, 1996, America's (and now Ambrella's) Independence Day.

In The Beginning

In 1992 the Ambrellese Independence Organization was founded, working for the independence of the wanna-be Ambrellese people. AIO's head was John Kainey, who was the Temporary President of the Republic of Ambrella when power was handed over in 1996. He wished to remove the "Temporary" from his title, so he ran for President of Ambrella on the Nationalist Party ticket (The Nationalist Party was then known as the AIO's Party, because that was the make-up of it's members) when the elections began in late 1996. The other candidates were Joeseph Phleeps of the Ambrellese Conservative Party, and Mary Quest of the Other Party. Halfway through the campaign, John Kainey's plans to take over the country as a dictator by force after winning the election were discovered, which ultimately lost the election for him. Mary Quest became the first President of Ambrella, and was officially given power on January 1, 1997. She remained in power until 2006 when M. A. Pitt won the election for the Ambrellese Conservative Party. Below shows estimated election results of 1997. They are estimated because Ambrella had no record system at the election's time.

Government Branches

Ambrella's government is divided into three branches. The dominant party of both the executive and legislative branches is the Ambrellese Conservative Party.

Executive Branch

The Executive Branch is made up of the President, his assistants, and the Executive Employment Service of Ambrella. (EESA) The President's position is voted on every 3 years, and the position is currently held by M. A. Pitt. There are no term limits for service.

The President's assistants are chosen by the President, and hold such positions as Chief General, Press Manager, and the Secretary for Human Management. They will serve until they either quit, are terminated, or the current President leaves office. Each President chooses new assistants, but he may keep the same ones if he chooses to.

The Executive Employment Service of Ambrella takes care of anything the President doesn't have time for. The President chooses it's head, and the head employs people to do the Executive jobs. It also manages the National Park Program of Ambrella.

Legislative Branch

The Legislative Branch is made up of the Executive Council. The Councilors are elected from each city-distract, two from each. The approve the President's laws and handle the federal budget and taxes. The Executive Council also has the power to remove the President from office with a 5/6ths vote.

Judicial Branch

The Judicial Branch is also known as the National Justice Department. There are two heads of this branch, and they do the same job as the US's Supreme Court. They also decide wether or not the actions of the President and Executive Council are legal or not, but they have to power to remove them.

Rainz - The Capital of Ambrella, containing business, government, and apartment living.

Ambrella Heights - The residential district, contains very few shops and businesses.

Ambrella Grove - The tourist trap, also contains all the National Parks, and the National Park Program HQ.
