Terrain and Climate

Hiltix has a very temperate climate along with hospitable landscape and predictable weather patterns.

When the English first settled in present-day Hiltix, they believed that the area of which they stood contained valuable minerals. After noticing that the temperature remained constant for the next three years, the settlers decided to start farming and developing. 145 years after the colonists decided to abandon the settlement of Hiltix for the Kingdom of Kindjal, Prime Minister Taylor Hatchett decided to claim the settlement and declare independence, because it was still officially part of England.

Government

Government Type

New York Times Democracy with Prime Minister and cabinet, Hiltix is a constitutional governement and consists of a Tricameral legislature:

'House of Representatives (Lower house) – Elected assembly that debates issues and writes bills to send to the House of Senates and Judicials
House of Senates (Middle house) – The Senators receive bills from the House of Representatives and debate amongst them.
House of Judicials (Upper house) - The Judicials pass or veto the bill depending on the majority of the Representatives and the Senators.

Sessions of both the House of Representatives and Senates are televised, and open to public spectators, while the House of Judicials is held in a private court room in Hiltix's capital, Hilti.

However the Prime Minister can declare a session closed if it discusses 'secret matters of national security' in which case that session will be closed to the public and TV cameras, and the secret sections of the minutes will be censored. This clause is rarely called into use.

The Prime Minister of Hiltix serves as both the head of state and head of government for a 5 year term - the Minister System only dates from March 2007 in Hiltix, so thus far there has been only one Hiltixan President. The Prime Minister may serve up to three, consecutive terms.

The 2 dominant parties currently are the Hiltixan Conservative Party and the Hiltixan Greene Party, although many other smaller parties exist.
