The United Kingdom of British Londinium, Chinese: 英國不列顛因數 , Hindi: थहे ूनितेद खिनगदोम ो् भरितिसह ळोनदिनिुम, Volscian: Imperium Iuncti ab Londinium Britannia is a united kingdom comprising the former Kingdom of Victoria and the Kingdom of Ganapati, located within the tropical, equatorial area of the Pacific Ocean within the region of Mediterranica. The nation is a series of two islands, and is composed of ten provinces, comprising twenty shires each. British Londinium is currently a member of the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations and the Grand Imperial Alliance.

Londinians, as they are known, are superlatively socialist, dedicated to the pursuit of individual liberty, freedom, and economic equality, as well as supporting domestic policy that is exceedingly liberal, such as the legalisation of same-sex marriages in CE 1842.

British Londinium is also known worldwide for its renowned Londinian Broadcasting Group.

History

Naming and Terminology

The terms "British Londinium" and "Eurasia" often confuse many throughout the world. Eurasia is short for "Eurasian Islands", and is used in reference to the geographical region.

Government

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

An image of the newly built Houses of Parliament, located in the capital city of Kensington.

The Londinian government is three tiered, with the Parliament, the Sovereign, and the Court System serving as checks and balances to eeach other to ensure the continued presence of the rule of law, as well as the continued preservation of Londinian libertarian ideals.

Parliament

There are 200 seats in the lower house of Parliament, the House of Commons, and each member is refered to as a Member of Parliament (MP). Each of the 10 provinces is divided into ten shires, each of which recieve two seats. The Londinian Democratic Socialists hold 106 seats in the House of Commons, the Conservative Party holds 79 seats, the Alliance of Liberal Democrats holds 7 seats, the Eco-Syndicalists hold 6 seats, and the Anarchist Coalition holds 2 seats.

The upper house, the House of Lords, consists of seventy-five peers of the realm, who, under the Constitution of the United Kingdom of British Londinium are required to represent a diverse field of expertise ranging from medicine to economics. These peers of the realm are appointed by the Monarch, currently Queen Hemali I.

Whichever party has the majority of seats in the House of Commons recieves the power to form a new government. The victorious party nominates a candidate to serve as Prime Minister, who then is ceremonially approved by the monarch. The current Prime Minister is Alistair Davidson, a member of the Londinian Democratic Socialists.

Courts

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom

The court system of British Londinium is highly stratified. At the top lies the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, the court of last resort for both civil and criminal cases. The Supreme Court also evaluates the constitutionality of legislation passed by the Parliament - legislation must be found constitutional before it may come into effect. Beneath the Supreme Court lies Her Majesty's Court of Appeal. This court is divided into two sections: the Criminal Division and the Civil Division. Beneath the Court of Appeal lies the High Court, the court of first instance for civil cases and an appellate court for criminal cases. Subordinate to the High Court is the Crown Court, the main criminal court, also known as the Primary Criminal Court. Below the Crown Court is the Magistrate's Court, which not only handles small, trivial cases, but also makes sure that criminal cases headed towards the Crown Court possess sufficient evidence to make a case. Finally, there is the County Court, a wholly civil court that handles minor disputes within a community.

Monarch

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

Rosenberger Palace, the official residence of the Monarch.

The Londinian monarch or Sovereign is the head of state of the U.K. and in the Eurasian overseas territories. The current Londinian monarchy can trace its ancestral lineage back to the city-state period, to the leader of the initial Roman fleet that colonised the island. In 1745, when the United Kingdom was created, the Monarch served as the crux of power. After the Reform Act of 1856, however, the powers of the Sovereign were severely reduced all but in name, with most real, political power vested in the Prime Minister.

The powers of the monarchy, known as the Royal Prerogative, are still very extensive. Most prerogative powers are exercised not by the monarch personally, but by ministers acting on his or her behalf; examples such as the power to regulate the civil service and the power to issue passports. Some major powers are exercised nominally by the monarch herself, acting on the advice of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, and according to constitutional convention. An example is the power to dissolve Parliament. According to a parliamentary report, "The Crown cannot invent new prerogative powers". It has long been established in the Constitution of the United Kingdom that political power is ultimately exercised by the Parliament of British Londinium, of which the Sovereign is a non-partisan component, along with the House of Lords and the House of Commons, and by the Prime Minister and Cabinet. Thus, as the modern Londinian monarchy is a constitutional one, the Sovereign's role is in practice limited to non-partisan functions (such as being the fount of honour). This role has been recognised since the 19th century;

The present sovereign is Queen Hemali I, who has reigned since February 4, 2007. The heir apparent is her eldest son, Prince Alexander, Prince of Victoria and Duke of Oxfordshire. The Prince of Victoria undertakes various public ceremonial functions, as does the queen's husband, Prince Giovanni, Duke of Newcastle. There are several other members of Royal Family besides those aforementioned, including the Queen's other children, grandchildren and cousins.

Constitution

The Constitution of British Londinium is uncodified, consisting of both written and unwritten sources. There is no technical difference between ordinary statutes and law considered "constitutional law." Therefore the Londinian Parliament can perform "constitutional reform" simply by passing Acts of Parliament and thus has the power to change or abolish any written or unwritten element of the constitution. The constitution is based on the concept of all sovereignty ultimately belonging to Parliament (Parliamentary sovereignty), so the concept of entrenchment cannot exist. The lack of a central written constitutional document explaining the fundamental principles of the state and relationship between its institutions and between the people leads some constitutionalists to regard the United Kingdom as having "no (formal) constitution." The phrase "unwritten constitution" is sometimes used, despite the fact that the UK constitution incorporates many written sources, statutory law being considered the most important source of the constitution. But the case remains that the constitution relies far more on unwritten constitutional conventions than virtually every other liberal democratic constitution, though there are attempts to codify the constitution, or to at least to compact the myriad of legislation deemed constitutional. In 2005, legislation was passed decreeing that all legislation that would be considered to be "constitutional" must clearly state its status as such - resultingly, the once muddled mess of constitutional affairs has become far clearer.

The key principles of the constitution are its underlying features. The two most important principles of the Eurasian constitution were first established to exist as the "twin pillars" of the constitution by Lysander Prætonius in his work, On Constituional Affairs Within the United Kingdom of British Londinium (1845). Prætonius stated that the constitution is built on the twin equal principles of Parliamentary sovereignty and the rule of law. The former means that Parliament is the supreme law making body; only the national Parliament may pass legislation affecting the nation as a whole - this principle has been established since the time of the Respublica Unitas The latter is the principle of equal application of the law: 'everyone is equal before the law'. Although the theory is certainly ancient, in practice equal application of the law to every subject/citizen in the state only seriously developed from the early nineteenth century. Prætonius' "twin pillars" interpretation is a legalistic interpretation, and has been criticised by commentators writing about the decline of Parliament's independence and the dominance of the executive in policy making.

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

Another important principle is the concept of a unitary state, which is a corollary of Parliamentary sovereignty, and means that unlike in federal or confederal systems, sovereignty resides only at the centre of the state. The power of local and devolved bodies are totally dependent on Acts of Parliament, they could be abolished completely by Parliament if it wished so. Constitutional monarchy is a key principle, meaning that the monarch does not technically rule but has a ceremonial role only. However, this is tempered by the fact that parliament technically derives its authority from the Crown by the implicit consent of the monarch. The collective term for the legislative and governmental power of parliament is therefore the King (or Queen) in Parliament principle. This means that the monarch is often described as the "supreme guardian of the constitution" in that he or she could overturn an unconstitutional act of parliament by decree. This is extremely unlikely to happen, however; although the Crown, in theory, can govern by decrees, which are referred to in British Londinium as Pragmatic Sanctions. The monarch, therefore, has an established role to advise, warn, and encourage ministers, although the Crown's executive powers remain unused, for the most part. Evaluation of the constitutionality of legislation is now, for the most part, executed by the judicial branch.

The greatest shift in Londinian constitutional affairs has been the landmark 2007 International Constitution for British Londinium Act, which deemed certain international treaties, such as the Charter of Fundamental Human Rights, constitutional documents, with equal standing as any other Constitutional Act of Parliament.

Economy

The economy of British Londinium is arguably the most powerful Pacific economy, experiencing GDP growth of six percent during the 2008 FY alone. The success of the Eurasian economy is mainly due to a market socialism approach to economics. The Londinian economy is primarily service and research based, though agriculture and industry are also key to development. The goods and services produced in British Londinium are extremely diverse, oriented on innovation, natural resources, and development of new products. British Londinium is lacking, however, in development of alternative energy sources. Nuclear power plants are the only form of alternative energy utilised in British Londinium, though hydrogen-powered vehicles are in usage in sparse numbers.

Energy

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

The seal of the Londinian Energy Alliance.

British Londinium is energy rich, with petroleum and natural gas abudant in the seas around the nation, especially the Black Gold Sea. In early 2009, Royal Dutch Shell discovered over two hundred billion barrels of petroleum beneath the waves of the Black Gold Sea, which resulted in a major boon for the Eurasian economy. Petrol is utilised as the primary energy source for motor vehicles, but nuclear power is the primary source of power for most cities and buildings. Natural gas is used sparingly, however, with a large part of Eurasian gas being exported to other nations. There are six major energy producers and distributors in British Londinium: Royal Dutch Shell, PetroLondinium, the Royale Group, LP, Todd Nuclear Energy, and Londinian National Fission. Together, these corporations have formed the Londinian Energy Alliance to help ensure domestic stability in oil prices (currently ₰1.21 a litre) and to prevent harmful disruptions in the international oil supply.

Culture

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

British Londinium, though renowned for it's natural splendour and socialist political system, not to mention its advances in technology, is most notable for its unique and opulent culture.

Despite this, Londinians place heavy emphasis on ceremony and formality, with the suit being the most worn outfit, even in casual situations. More often than not, Londinians are punctual to a fault, and owning a time piece of some sort is almost expected out of any individual.

The culture of British Londinium is built around the principles of enjoyment and living life to the fullest.

Meanwhile, Londinian cuisine is widely considered the greatest in the Pacific area, drawing from British, French, and Italian food. Heavy emphasis is visible on spicy, vivid dishes, including open-fire meats, dairy, oils, fresh pasta, fruits, vegetables and desserts. However, Eurasian cuisine is rapidly growing, and is coming to include other types of meats or meat alternatives (eggs, seafood), and a growing fusion-cuisine movement has grown, with many new Asian-fusion, Carribbean, and Modern European restaurants peppering the nightlife of Londinian cities. As well, the minority groups of the region have contributed their own homeland cuisines, creating a vivacious culinary experience. The most popular dishes, by meal are: Eggs Royale (breakfast), Szechuan-style stir fry (lunch), and tea-smoked steak (dinner).

Language, and the respect for language, is also critical to understanding Londinian culture. The two official languages of Londinian English and Volscian are regulated by the Council for Londinian Language to ensure conformity. Londinian English is formulated after British English, adopting many of its formations and terminology; however, the language has been made more formal than British English, with certain slang terminology eliminated completely.

Literature

The earliest native literature of the territory of British Londinium was written in ancient Latin, by the original Roman settlers who landed on the island. The first notable work from Eurasia was Caecilia Auxilius Metelli's Treatise on Utilitarianism, which proposed the ethical doctrine that the moral worth of an action is solely determined by its contribution to overall utility. For over three hundred years after the settlement of the islands, most written works discussed factual subjects; notwithstanding that, the earliest example of notable fiction manifests itself in The Epic of Julius Aurelius, about a peasant, Julius, who rises up to be king of a large, mythical city state.

When the Londinian printing press was developed circa CE 1300, mass production of literature ensued, resulting in increased literacy rates and the popularization of literature. Around CE 1514, poetry entered into the vogue, primarily the sonnet. Unlike the Italian or English sonnet, the Londinian sonnet possesses a rhyme scheme of a-b a-b, b-c b-c, c-d c-d, e-e. Whilst Shakespeare was all the rage in England, poets such as Augustulus Romulus were proving to be immensely popular, founding theatres in cities throughout the nation.

In more contemporary times, postmodern and absurdist literature top the charts, along with philosophy texts and non-fiction works. Indeed, one of the primary works taught to all Londinian children is Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot.

Holidays and customs

The following is a list of the major statutory holidays in the United Kingdom.

Religion

A key tenet of the United Kingdom is individual freedoms, including the freedom of religion. 33% of all Londinians identify themselves as atheists, 28% identify themselves as Hindi, 25% as Muslims, 10% as Christian, and 4% as worshippers of the original Roman deities.

Suffrage

Universal suffrage is 14 years of age.

Education

Education in British Londinium is one of the most rigorous courses of study found in the world, funded lavishly by the government and made mandatory for every Londinian citizen. The Ministry for Education and Skills (MoES) regulates the education system, and mostly recieves praise for the quality of education that it delivers. However, many foreigners complain about the difficulty of Londinian schools, since a 90% average grade is required to pass each class. However, MoES white papers have decided that this rigour is a major factor in the economic success of Eurasia, and thus has decided to maintain the difficultly.

Level I - Preschool

From ages three to five, all children in British Londinium are required to attend Level I Education, casually known as preschool, which is completely free for citizens and quite cheap for resident non-citizens. Here, Londinians learn basic reading, writing, history, science and mathematics that will later serve as a vital foundation for their education in Level II schooling. The school day is broken into three sections. In the first, the language-oriented subjects are taught. In the second, history is taught. In the third, science and mathematics are taught. The school time usually runs between 0900 hours and 1600 hours. The students go to school from Monday to Friday for two semesters comprising twenty-three weeks. There are six weeks of break during the summer.

Level II - Primary school

Primary school, the next level in the educational system, expands heavily upon the base forged by Level I education, with all students aged 5-11 required to attend. Completion of Level I school, or the completion of an entrance exam, is required to attend Level II schools. The core subjects are: Mathematics, English, Eurasian, History, and Science. Newly introduced are classes such as Health/Physical Education, Government, and ICT (Information and Communication Technology). A day in primary school is not structed in the standard "one teacher, one class" format, but in the "one teacher, one subject" format, as Level II Schools have an eight period day. In each period, a different subject is taught. Often, Level II schools offer afterschool extracurricular activities such as debate. The school time usually runs between 0800 hours and 1600 hours. The students go to school from Monday to Friday for two semesters comprising twenty-four weeks. There are four weeks of break during the summer.

Level III - Secondary school

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

Level III school is the final stage in the mandatory education of a Londinian citizen. To obtain entry, one must have completed Level II education or completed an entrance exam to display mastery of the knowledge base. Here, students no longer have to take both Eurasian and English; they are allowed to choose one, and take a foreign language in place of the other. Like Level II, Level III sports a period-based day. However, there are ten periods instead of eight. The curriculum offers French, Arabic, Hindi, Chinese, Castillian and Pacitalian, among other languages. Core subjects include: Domestic Language (English/Eurasian), Foreign Language, Mathematics, History, Science, Government, Londinian Law, Philosophy, Health, plus an elective. Each core class is tracked into three stages: Standard, Accelerated, and Honours. Accelerated classes possess a 0.3 GPA weight, whilst Honours classes possess a 0.5 GPA weight. Upon graduation, diplomas are issued to all students. The school time usually runs between 0800 hours and 1600 hours. The students go to school from Monday to Saturday for two semesters comprising twenty-five weeks. There are two weeks of break during the summer. Level III education is taken until age eighteen.

Level IV - Tertiary School

To enter into tertiary school, Level III education or equivalent must have been completed. British Londinium is home to dozens of esteemed, high-calibre tertiary institutions that has garnered Eurasia with a reputation for educational excellence. As a result, over fifty million foreign nationals travel to Eurasia each year to study in notable universities such as the Royal University at Kensington, Academia Militaire ab Sandhurst, and St Andrews Conservatoire.

Sports

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

Ever since the first Romans populated the Eurasian Islands, sport has proved a major part in the culture of the nation. The most popular sports are football, cricket, rugby, and tennis. There have been attempts to introduce gridiron into the country, but there has been strong resistance to the idea. By far, football has the greatest number of teams and fans, with over one hundred professional football teams in the nation, with twenty of them in the Premiership - the highest league in the country - and over three hundred million viewers. British Londinium is home to some of the world's renowned football teams, including Kensington United, St Andrews, and Argyll. Furthermore, Eurasia has two Home Country-level football teams, the Victoria Domo-kuns and the Ganapati Rebels, which play against each other on 2 May, Eurasia Day, each year. Legislation has been passed, creating a pan-Londinian national football team, which is widely supported by Victorians, but the concept is met with skepticism from Ganapatians.

Communication

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

The headquarters of the LBG

British Londinium is proud to sport a highly developed, advanced communications network; in the UKBL, 89% of all individuals have internet access, 98% have access to a radio, and 94% have access to a television.

Television

Three world-class television networks operate in British Londinium. The first and foremost network is the Londinian Broadcasting Group, a state-owned television network that possesses over thirty channels; the LBG is financed out of the taxpayer's pockets, in the form of an eleven eura tax each month. Secondly, there is LondCom, and thirdly there is MediaLondinium, which is a loose alliance of independent television networks.

Print media

Daily national newspapers such as The Kensington Times and The Londinian Financial Times are the most popular newspapers in British Londinium, and are highly regarded as the most factual and unbiased. Newsmagazines are also popular, with The Financier and The Weekly News topping the charts. However, foreign newspapers also possess a significant share of the Londinian market, with the London Times and The Economist being wildly popular.

Internet TLD/suffix

.ukbl was the most popular Internet TLD, but in 2006, it was filled to capacity, and .uke was introduced, now possessing (in 2009) over two million web addresses.

Population

Ethnicity

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

Demographic chart displaying race.

In the 2008 National Census, British Londinium's population was reported as 846,341,643 citizens. Chinese and Indian invasion during the 1400s along with European imperialism during the 18th century turned a largely Roman population into a diverse and unique blend of races. To the left is a demographic chart fully fleshing out races in British Londinium.

Life expectancy

Life expectancy in the UK is extremely high and currently stands at an average of about 79 years. UK health care is fully nationalization and maintains superlatively high standards of cleanliness, efficiency and safety. Health care for foreign visitors is free in emergency situations or with proper travel insurance coverage (with approved supplementary documentation).

Transport

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

Kensington International Airport, the busiest airport in the Greater Londinian Empire.

British Londinium boasts one of the most efficient and most developed networks of transportation in the Pacific area, and perhaps the world, with extensive road, rail and marine routes and over fifty international airports.

Air Transport

British Londinium has five major international hubs but fifty international airports. The major airports are Kensington International Airport (KNI), Westminster International Skyport (WIS), Stewart International Airport (STI), Maddox International (MXI), and Victoria Centre Airport (VCA). As a key hub for shipping, along with business interests and tourism, Londinian airports handle nearly 150 million passengers per day, on average.

Motorway system

<div" class="plainlinksneverexpand">

A-class / Arteriaroute

British Londinium's arteriaroute network is highly developed, consisting of hundreds of thousands of kilometres of paved highways. While built originally built with government funds, portions of the autoroute network are funded by private measures, such as toll systems. The network is so developed that today, 92% of Londinian land is within 100km of one or more autoroute. The five busiest arteriaroutes are:

1. The A21 from Kensington to Cambridge, which forks into Oxford, linking with the M6.
2. The A1 from Kensington to St. Andrews
3. The A6 from Kensington, through Oxford to Northolt.
4. The A18 linking Argyll and Westminster, through Waltham Forest.
5. The A25 circumnavigating Kensington.
   
   

The arteriaroutes are designated as the busiest and most important routes. There is one numbering rule with the arteriaroutes - the number code that goes with the letter A must not be more than two digits.

V-class / Venaroutes

Smaller artery highways that have four or six lanes and cross equal or slightly smaller ranges of land area are designated as V-class. They are different from C-class capillaroutes in that they must have a three-digit representation code. V-class are similar to A-class, however, in that they can be located anywhere around British Londinium.

C-class / Capillaroutes

C-class capillaroutes have less than four lanes but may stretch across large areas of terrain. However, they were not designed for any large-scale commercial transport, meaning that traffic on capillaroutes is usually confined just to local passenger traffic.

Aquatic routes

British Londinium boasts an ample water network, with man-made canals linking most major cities. Furthermore, British Londinium also has three major, international ports which serve as major hubs for shipping. They are located in Kensington, Argyll, and Northolt.

Rail routes

Railways are not as heavily used as the motor transport system, but do offer more point-to-point public transport, which is the primary cause for their popularity. Many kilometres of track with Maglev capacity connect dozens of cities within the United Kingdom. Rail transport has also gained significant popularity in urban locales, with monorails and trolleys permeating most major cities.

Military

The Londinian Armed Forces consist of three branches: the Royal Army, the Royal Navy, and the Royal Air Forces. Often, these organisations operate in cooperation with the Secret Intelligence Service and the Security Service.
