Language
The Official language is English; however, Spanish, French, and Russian are all very prevalent, and the majority of citizens can speak at least two languages.
Religion
The Government does not currently recognize the existence of a religious organizations, however, widespread outcry has forced Parliament to debate several pieces of legislation regarding this practice.
Civil Rights
The people of Marquish have total freedom to do what they please with their lives, and prejudice is almost non-existent (aside from contempt for those with religious beliefs). Approximately 22% of Marquish’s population identify themselves as homosexual, and Supreme Chancellor Kay announced prior to his appointment to office that he is a homosexual and has had a male partner for several years.
GOVERNMENT
Supream Chancellor – Logan Kay
Prime Minister – Joseph Kenshki
Marquish has a uniqly complex government, which many people attribute to the number of revolutions and counter revolutionary struggles the nation has seen in the past decade.
The Government consists of a Parliament, which then appoints a Supreme Chancellor, who can be recalled at any time by a vote of Parliament. During Elections (held every two years) the population votes for mayors, city council members, etc directly. For Parliament, voters cast their ballots for a particular party, which then sends its representatives based on the percentage of votes received.
Parliament
The number of members in Parliament is determined by population of the four administrative districts, and the capital city. Currently there are 240 Members of Parliament (15 from the Capital City of New Haven; 65 From the Leninstal Administrative District, 65 From the Sabago Administrative District, 70 from the Southern Administrtive District, 25 From the Central Administrative District). Members of Parliament have 6 year posts, with 1/3 of the representatives up for election every two years. Members of Parliament can propose legislation and foreign policy, which must be passed by a 68% vote, and endorsed by the Supreme Chancellor. Legislation or policy passed with a 85% ‘yea’ vote cannot be vetoed by the Chancellor, and is considered rule of law with or without the Chancellor’s endorsement.
Office of the Prime Minister
The Prime Minister is the head of Parliament, but not the head of state. He or She is appointed by a vote of the majority party, and has responsibilities similar to that of a “speaker of the house” in other governments.
