Kirisubo
The Empire of Kirisubo
this ancient empire was formed 400 years ago as a result of a civil war that unified several smaller nations. We are a enviromentally minded nation with many areas of natural beauty.
Almost instantly Shogun Katsushiro closed of the empire which didn't open up until 1864 AD.
Kirisubo honours its warrior past and the warrior class the Samurai are still around in this modern era. now the empire is at peace Samurai are usually found as officers in the defence forces, civil servants, judges, high ranking police officers or even member s of the nations parliment, the council of Daimyo's.
the spiritual head of the nation is the Emperor Akahito. the main members of the Imperial family are Empress Miyu, Crown Princess Fujiko, Princess Genjiko and Prince Saruji.
Power lies with the council of Daimyo's and the Shogun. the current holder is General Nakamura of the Imperial Kirisuban army.
Culture wise Kirisubo is a very peacefull place to live. Since crime is virtually unknown citizens can concentrate on working hard and raising their families.
For entertainment natives may watch Noh and Kabuki plays and go to the one of the many Sumo wrestling bashos amongst a lot of things.
Western sports have become popular such as baseball, soccer and rugby union. the film making industry is alive and kicking and viewers are movie theatres can watch anything from an action movie to a Jiddi-gekki (period drama).
the main religions are Shinto and Buddism. Christianity is only a recent arrival as is Islam. People are free to choose their faith but the government cracks down hard on barbaric religious practices and practices that break local laws.
recently Kirisubo joined the great region of Gatesville as a francise member. we also serve the Gatesville Sovereign Protectorate (the militia). We also maintain an active presence in the NSUN.
I hope after reading this you may well want to visit. A lot of people speak english so there'll always be someone to help you.
Our Current Ambassador
Kaigan Miromuta is the eldest son of Keiko and Akahito Miromuta, Kaigan also has a younger brother and sister.
He was born in 1969 in Edo, the capital of Kirisubo. As expected of him as a member of a samurai family he went to the Yedo Imperial military school where he remained until his coming of age at 16 years old. He graduated with honours in 1985 and continued his military career full time.
Already a rising star in the Kirisuban army he went on to command a tank company at 20 years of age holding the rank of Captain before joining the general staff of the 3rd defence army.
Recent developments
In October 2005, The Empire of Kirisubo joined the region of Gatesville and Captain Miromuta was the first liaison officer appointed between the Kirisuban armed forces and the Gatesville Sovereign Protectorate.
He took well to the job for the short time he had it. A scandal back home forced the recall of the UN Ambassador and Kaigan was appointed Ambassador in his place.
Since then he’s settled down into his new job and hopes to continue serving his country in his current post.
He also represents the interests of his region, Lifestyles of the RichNfamous as their regional delegate.
Political notes
Politically Kaigan is socially minded favouring National Sovereignty issues. He also has a keen grasp of environmental issues. He’s a maverick and in the short time he’s been in the UN he’s certainly got noticed and has got the Empire of Kirisubo involved in small scale responses to international incidents. Kirisubo has helped broker ceasefires and treaties in Zodno-Pomerskie, Kilani and is also working in SLI-Sector to broker a ceasefire between the two factions in their civil war.
He still holds his army rank and hopes to stay in the UN for a fair while to come.
