Old School Fod

Fodmodmadtol is not anything, precisely. A Fod is really only an idea- An abstract thought. The Fodian ideal is one that can be applied to any People that values the right of Life above all else. The Fodian Ideal would have no sense of actual law and order, for the Life of the People is something not to impede upon, and the Balance that is Life ordained by Aliliah favors no side. The only act of judgement would come if the one true Fodian Ideal is broken, and that is the right of Life to all who hold it.

The Nation-State

UN Category: Libertarian Police State

Civil Rights- World Benchmark; Economy- Frightening; Political Freedoms- Outlawed

  • The Marxist Corporation of Fodmodmadtol is a massive, economically powerful nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2* billion enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.
  • It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and Commerce. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, followed by Gambling and Woodchip Exports.
  • Crime -- especially youth-related -- is pervasive, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Fodmodmadtol's national animal is the Bed Badger, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Ethanol Standard.

Epsilon

The Northern Expanse is defined by a Highland Climate(H) of a Boreal Forest Climate(Dfc). Long, very cold winters, and short, cool summers. Weather changes rapidly on mountains, becoming colder the higher the altitude gets. Overall temperature range is very larger. Precipitation increases during summer months, although annual precipitation is still small. Plant life is composed of Mountain Riparin and Alpine with areas of Aspen.

The Midway Expanse is a Moist Cotinental Climate(Cf). The battleground of tropical and polar air masses. Seasonal changes between summer and winter are very large. Daily temperatures also change often. Abundant precipitation falls throughout the year. It is increased in the summer season by invading tropical air masses. Cold winters are caused by polar and arctic masses moving south. Plant life varies from Ponderosa Pine, Mountain Fir, Deciduous, Wet and Dry Meadow.

The Southern Expanse is defined by a Dry Midlatitude Climate(BS). Polar air in winter creates very cold winters, although summers can be very hot. Decent enough rainfall that keeps the land from transgressing into an arid climate, and holding it as a tallgrass prarie. Flora consists mostly of Grasslands, Sagebrush, and Mountain Shrub.

Administration

The Capital city of Fodmodmadtol is Hesphaestus; It's location is undisclosed, as is its actual function. All major cities in Fodmodmadtol besides the Capital are only International Ports, or Corporate Headquarter Quarantine. Any other Urban, Suburban, or Rural Townships are much more intimate. The Townships of the Federation, as any and all Tax Sectors are reffered to by, are any and all localities in which Citizens of the Federation live within. Fodmodmadtol Colonial is divided into the Fodian Federal Districts. Fodmodmadtol Administration is directed by "The Governing Charter of Fodmodmadtol." The GCoF, though, is highly disregarded. The East Theocracy Movement has held to Fod State for the past decade, and will continue to do so untill a violent upheaval.

Political Movements

Party Leader Description Registered Voters
East Theocracy Movement Till-Aries The East Theocracy Movement is based around the teachings of Nyx, the last Arch'Juscte before the fall of the Fodmodmadtol East Theocracy. They advocate higher education spending over all sectors. The East Theocracy Movement favors more regulation and restriction on the economy, leaning towards socialism. Rights for the registered voter are considered irritants, which ironically, is what draws most support. They do however, support a system like that of a Republic. 40%
Kay Medical Nokona Kay Medical, also known as The Buddy Capitalism Movement, has suffered loss of members after the fall of The Monarch CEO, Nokona, and has yet to fully recover. There are doubts it ever will. Kay Medical is a self promoting, egotistical regime, the priority base composed of Kay Medical employees. Monopolization of the economy under Kay Medical, and general apathy regarding civility are Kay Medical's focus. 40%
Fascism Movement Ludvik The Fascism Movement advocates justice, for only the strong. The term "Strong" is subjective to many values though, seen by the Fascism Movement as the term "Executive." Agressive in every manner. Imperialistic, and Capitalistic. Recently, the Fascism Movement altered it's logo from the centuries old, "Justice for the victor," to, "Keep your eyes only to look upon us." The Fascism Movement has grown increasingly agressive over the past few years, due largely to their loss of a stable base. The Fascism Movement and Kay Medical have long standing ties with one another. 20%
The First Stalin Party Madison Hilton The First Stalin Party favors, obviously, iron fist control over the economy. The Grand Old Party, as it is reffered to, favors nationalization of all major corporate entities, and is opposed greatly from every side. They also lean towards the military, feircly supporting every aggressive action Fodmodmadtol takes, and protesting lack thereof regarding warfare at home or away. Although, The G.O.P. has a soft side, highlighted by their support of the Department of Cruel and Unusual Punishment. Defunct
The Dead Horse Party Rudolf Hilton The only vast conservative movement in Fodmodmadtol. This party was originally created on the tenet of an open political system, free of any corruption. Presently, it focuses mainly on silencing minorities in Fodmodmadtol. The Dead Horse Party, platform picked from absolutism, has been making an extraordinary attempt to enforce Aliliah'Ish'Ness onto the entire population of Fodmodmadtol, a majority being Orthodox Aliliah. They've trangressed over the years into a righteous faith system in which they believe whatever they say is the only truth. The Dead Horse Party is reffered to as "That Dead Nazi." Defunct

Corporation

Fodmodmadtol is breeding grounds for massive Corporations, a select few rising from the chaos of business. The outstanding titan of this, though, is Kay Medical. Kay Medical effectively has the economy under its shoe, establishing itself firmly as a monopoly. Kay Medical has many divisions, under many different monomers, each prefixed by "Kay." The logo "Kay Medical" is misleading, the Corporation reaching out into more fields of industry indicated by the simple suffix "Medical". It varies from arms manufacturing to sneaker franchise, from aeroport franchise to shipping freight. Kay Medical attained its control through inheritance, once being a nationalized Corporation. Corporate Fod is a dangerous place if not employed by Kay Medical.

Coldstone Capital Alliance Coldstone Hilton Varied small businesses allied against GEO, Halo, and Kay. Collected on the premise of a Trade Union to protect member ventures from the monopolization, and strangling competetive environment in Fodmodmadtol. The CCA imposes tarrifs, embargoes, and levies as would any Trade Union. However, this is done enternally, a key difference from any other. The CCA is the only one of its kind to have lasted in Fod. The CCA is actually considered by Fodmodmadtol Administration, a Communist Bloc within Fodmodmadtol Corporate, to rival the GEO, Halo, and Kay Blocs. Fod State refers to the CCA as Coldstone Bloc. The entirety of CCA is located in one centralized location, not daring to stray a minute distance from any other member. Unofficial

A CEO Monarch

... Its a sprawling, circular room, of magnificent Old-School Imperialist opulence. Italian porcelain tile of warm earthly hues, cathedral plaster ceilings adorned in a fresco of the tortured Saint Sebastian, magnificent Corinthian columns of marvelous red rising fluted around the edges of the room, arches between to lead out onto an open verandah on all sides. In the middle of this spectacular shrine, there was a shallow circular platform, rising just a few inches above the floor in the same rich material of porcelain. In the center of this platform, there is a nest of pillows situated. Ornate, luxurious things, bold colors and creeds, indefinably variegated. Above this hangs a banner, long and white and falling to just a few feet above the arrangement of comfort, bearing- Oddly enough- The Seal of the East Fodian Theocracy. Many Servants, distinguishable by their ordinary black uniforms, hustled through this most sacrosanct area to other places within the Villa. Also, Employees, differentiated by their stiff corporate dress. A dull murmur was always masking The Great Hall, it living up to its title as a hub of the Villa. [ Being Great, and whatnot. ] The Sun, of course, looked upon this with an ordinary eye. ...
