Cayrocasia is a democratic socialist state on Uranus's moon Oberon. Chris Perez, whose dream was to build a free society, founded it in 2005.

Geography

The nation of Cayrocasia occupies the entire surface of Oberon, a barren world. Because of its inhospitable surface, most citizens live in Cayrocasia city, a densely populated urban sprawl, which is situated near the equator. Cayrocasia City is a completely enclosed environment, but not entirely enclosed in the sense that it is a bubble. Rather, the bottom one hundred feet of the city is completely enclosed, allowing skyscrapers to tower over the lower areas of the city. There are a few outlying settlements connected to the main city by high-speed rail.

Government

Cayrocasia has a secular democratic socialist government, in which every citizen has the power to make their voice heard. There are no elected officials, but whenever legislature is passed a small committee my be formed to make sure it is put into action. Every two weeks there is a poll, in which the people vote on what should be done with the government. These polls are how decisions are made, and are organized by volunteer groups. In order for a proposal to be included in the poll, a citizen must submit a petition with at least ten thousand signatures. There are few laws, because the principals the country was founded on were based on the ideas of true freedom. Crime is virtually unknown, but if there is ever a trial, the people vote on how the person should be charged in the polls. Polls can be anything, from new laws, opinion polls, surveys, foreign policy decisions, trials, anything. The founder, Chris Perez, is a figurehead leader, nothing more than a mere celebrity.
