Tourist Info

The Commonwealth is a nation of many faces. The nation has 11 islands, 9 provinces, and several different climate zones. The northern island is called King Leo Island. Its a large island, that is fairly flat and recieves large amounts of snow fall every year. There are two provinces, Ontario to the west, and Manitoba to the east. Then in the south is the largest of the islands. Its called King Charles Island. It contains three provinces, Alberta, Juno, and Arizona. The large of the island is boreal forest and plains, but in the west past the Rocky Mountain Range is a scorching hot desert and the entire province of Arizona. To the east of the range, and in the north is the province of Alberta, which has many oil fields and planty of farm land. Alot of farm land is owned by the government. And to the south of Alberta is the province of Juno, home of the national capital, St.Myhre. Two of the largest cities can be found here along with the lowest point. There is a river that runs from a city in the mountains in the north called Auglium, and runs all the way south to St.Myhre where it feeds out into the Charles Strait. To the south-west of Arizona is the island of King Fredrick, the home of the single province of Quebec. This is where the famous Delesaian Whiskey is brewed. To the east of Juno is a cluster of 6 smaller islands. The islands are called the Virgin Isles, also the name of the province. They have a interesting history, once taken over, left then retaken in a 4 year long bloody war with Kreatvye. And the south of King Charles island is the King Victor island. It is home to two provinces of Omaha to the west, and Normandy to the east. And close to the middle is the Delesa Canal. And the largest city in all Delesa is located here, Port Hustlings. Once you get out to the coast of King Victor Island its only kilometres of wounderful beaches and sparkling ocean. While the shores of the Virgin Isles is rocky jaggaed shores. Port Hastlings is a serious tourist attraction with the beaches, amazing hotels and tradional buildings.

This nation is deep into the sport of football(soccer). The nation has its own premier league. You cant walk into a gas station or conveince shop without seeing a TV on and the cashier watching a intense game. A new football stadium has just be completed in St.Myhre. Yes football is a huge thing and as a tourist you cant come to Delesa and not go see a game, well thats if you could get tickets. Most teams are known for selling out most of their games. And the stadiums can atleast facilitate 75,000 people. The stadium in St.Myhres, the Delesa National Football Centre, can contain 125,000. So if you drop by the nation go see a game in one of our many in all regions of the great nation. Delesa is also famous for its whiskey brewed in Quebec.

Government & Politics

Form of Government: Constitutional monarchy with two legistive bodies(Senate and Chamber of Commons) Meaning, the monarchy has no real political power, but is a power figure. The face of several more famous Kings are on the federal bills and coins, and the people love the current king and queen. King Edward III & Queen Alexandra I.

Voting System: Prime Minister & House of Commons(HC) - Elections held every four years. And you vote for local Members of Parliament(MPs). Each MP has a party they are in. And the most amount of MP’s in a party are voted into office, the Party Leader is made Prime Minister. There are 20 MPs (for each party) in each province. The province is divided into 10 sections and one MP gets a section he runs in, and those people in that section vote for those local MPs. Total 180 seats. Senate - There is 60 members in all. And it is divided in groups of 20. And every 4 years, the oldest group, that has been in power for 12 years, is removed and a new 20 brought in. And so on and so forth. The public doesn’t vote, but the the King and Queen apoints respectable people.

History

Short Version

1222 - The Kingdom of Delesa was established by King Charles I.

1278 - King Leo I in led the ‘Holy Unity Wars’ in which he invaded the(now known as) King Victor and King Leo islands, as well as King Fredrick Island and the Virgin Isles, but died in the Campaign in the Virgin Isles, when struck down by an arrow.

1340 - King Leo II completed what his father was doing. Built lots of monuments to his father.

1347 - King Leo II created classes of citizens. There was 3 levels. The highest was the Royal and Knights, 2nd was the Nobles and Clergy. The bottom was the peasants. This system was called the People’s System.

1792-1819 - War of Independence between the Loyalists and Separatists, in which Delesa was introduced to the future mortal enemy of Kreatvye, who took the side of the Separatists. Separatists defeated, but Kreatvye kept the Virgin Isles.

1862-1864 - Failed Revolution War - Government vs. Socialist Revolutionaries(mostly peasants)

1866 - King Edward II created a government after the pressure from the people over the blood shed of the revolution.

1876 - A new title was given to the country, instead of Kingdom was changed to the Commonwealth. Along with that, the former Ruble currency was replaced with the Commonwealth Kredit.

1868 - With the new government power, the People’s System was abolished and the Universal Male Suffrage brought in, which meant all adult males where able to vote.

1895 - Delesa Soccer League established.

1909 - The Government allowed women to vote.

1940-1974 - Commonwealth-Kreatvye War - During the War of Independence (1792-1819) when the Separatists surrendered, Kreatvye didn't give up the Virgin Isles. This war is about retaking back the islands. The islands were retaken, and the government was pushed on to take the fight to the homeland of Kreatvye. The war continued until 1974. During the war, several times(some times as long as a year(once) to several months) a cease fire was declared, but either one side or the other fired on the other and it continued, or one of the sides would not settle for the peace conditions. But in 1974, the Kreatvye Government was defeated, and a Incorporated State was established. Huge celebrations were held after 34 years of war, and its now been declared as a national holiday. October 4th, the day the government officially surrendered.
