The United Socialist States of Fortestan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 546 million enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level social equality free of the usual accompanying government corruption.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Welfare and Social Equality are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.
Crime is totally unknown. Fortestan's national animal is the raphus cucullatus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the tolar.
Political Divisions
Fortestan is made up of seven semi-autonomous states, one capitol district, and two territories. The states are Rutas, Pellucidar, Laconia-Messinia, Ozymanda, Golgafrimchan, Belostavia, Wassa. The two territories are Kalmiya and Chat Noy. Each of the seven states is allowed to set up its own legislature, its own court system, and its own administrative branch. The state laws must be compatible with federal law, and federal law takes precedence over state law. Each state is run by an elected Governor, who heads the state-unique administrative branch. The Governor also serves as the Commander-in-Chief of the state militia.
States
to be written.
Territories
The two territories are considered 'experiments in capitalism' for the traditional social democracy. Kalmiya and Chat Noy were two colonies set up by the young, united Fortestani nation, but did not meet the qualifications for statehood or even want to be apart of the U.S.S.F. The terriories are run by an elected legislature, called the Territorial Assembly, and a Governor-General who is appointed by the Fortestani President and approved by the National Congress. Neither territory is allowed to set up a militia, and are subject to the laws of the Fortestani Supreme Court.
Capitol District
to be written.
