Creation Myth
The Narabbian people were a tribe that was discriminated against in what legend only calls 'the old land' because of their ideological beliefs. They were cannibals and performed a different religion than the other tribes. The tribe worshiped what were called the 'Four Winds'. One day a colossal man (7 feet tall according to legend) who wore animal skins (a mask of a lion, shoes made from bear paws, and a cloak made from the skin of a leopard) and had a course voice came to the oppressed peoples and offered them a new land to call their own. They traveled for 616 days until they found a lush landscape where the first animal they beheld was an 8-headed vulture. The Great Shaman deemed this as a sign and so they settled in that spot (possibly modern day Karaktitus?). The Shaman left shortly after the founding leaving one message of hope to the Narabbian people: (translated from early glyphs) "Goodbye my people, I will return to deliver the world unto you, but beware those who bare the mark of the sun shaped as a 't' and their empire which will bare 10 hands of stars."
History
Early History
Nerobi Narabba was originally founded in the United Welsh Republic on the 18th of December. What first started as an extremely politically free semi-socialist country went through a number of changes to come to the point it is today.
The first semi-remarkable shift in Nerobi Narabba was the breaking off of Untera, Nerobi Narabba’s brother state. Originally both states were as one, but as the population of Nerobi Narabba skyrocketed an ever-growing percentage of the population wished to live in a fully capitalist society instead of the socialist Nerobi Narabba. Untera was formed without any sort of civil war during the 10th year of our great empire.
The Cold War
The largest change was caused by nearby international pressures. A cold war broke out between those countries that were overly power hungry within the region. The rival nations included: South Cymru (deceased), Ogibalidadistan (deceased), Rweth Republic (deceased), Civilized Nations (deceased), Untera (allied), Lemanruss (allied), Edimadra (deceased), and or course Nerobi Narabba. This cold war turned the leaders within Nerobi Narabba away from the citizens and environment to focus primarily on the economy. This can be seen in how soon it became a militaristic dictatorship fuelled by greed alone. If one thing can be said about the many dictators who ruled Nerobi Narabba for years it is this: they never took the civil rights of the population away, if the population went about their business not going against the government they were free to live their lives. During the middle part of the cold war the Nerobi Narabbian armed forces, The Peace Breakers, marched on the undefended capital of Lemanruss and turned it into a puppet state, which has been freed from, recently.
The Beginning of the Depression
The second large change was a depression brought about by the U.N. but more explanation must be given for the cause and effects of this. The United Welsh Republic was, for the greater part of its existence, without an active founder. The first elected delegate, South Cymru, was given no extra regional control for his entire reign. Once the founder, North Wales, released regional control to the U.N. delegate Nerobi Narabba jumped on the occasion and, through bribery and intimidation, took U.N. delegacy literally overnight. Once in power the 'new regional order', as they called themselves took all actions possible to stay in power. They rallied all of the rest of the possible supporters and threatened to eject whoever voted for any opponent to Nerobi Narabba. This power lasted for many NS years before the depression hit. The depression, caused by a U.N. resolution, harmed all of the economies within the U.N. in the region. Most countries whose economies were "Frightening" fell to "All-Consuming", and some fell even more. Though superciliously the Nerobi Narabbian economy remained intact, (it was the only to remain "Frightening") the harm the U.N. caused did more to Nerobi Narabba than it did to any others. Whereas the other countries fell and almost immediately rose to "Frightening" within a few NS years, Nerobi Narabba's GDP per capita never seemed to recover. To compensate for it's lack of wealth Nerobi Narabba poured even more funds into the military, with a 100% tax rate and over 50% of it going into the military, no force within the region dared oppose the battered regional ruler, but soon Nerobi Narabba left the U.N. vowing never to return no matter what power it promised in the region.
The End and Rebirth of the Cold War and the Empire of the New Darkness
Feelings and threats of war cooled down a new region was formed by South Cymru with itself at its head. This new peace didn't last long though, and soon the old supporters of The New Regional Order craved power once more. Under the banner of the Putrescence of Nations the Empire of the New Darkness was founded, created to wipe the opposed region, Cymrukfty (sp?), off of the face of the earth. Cymrukfty soon vanished due to inactivity, The Empire proclaiming victory. During the time in The Empire Nerobi Narabbian officials were trying everything to return the country’s GDPPC to its once glorious state. There were many within the country that claimed that Nerobi Narabba had never had an economy as strong as it was in the past and that the tales of old were nothing more than legend to keep the country intact. A drastically different new dictator, Lartus Augustus, was appointed after the death of his father. Lartus had radically new ideas of how to rebuild the economy and keep the population from rebelling at the same time, libertarianism. Soon the economic and civil freedoms skyrocketed and the tax rate dropped. As he predicted, the economy returned, and surpassed, the economy of old. Though the industries were privatised during the depression in an attempt to fix the economic problems, the industries generally stayed very close to the government. The industries stayed autonomous of themselves, but respected the word the of government. This was beneficial to both parties, especially the government, for in this new age of prosperity some industries became even more powerful than the governing bodies themselves. Eventually the government merged with the industries in that they (the government) were controlled by them (the industries). The new economically, civilly, and politically free Nerobi Narabba is slowly becoming an empire once more, this time one of money rather than might. Everything within Nerobi Narabba will soon be privatised and the budget will be wholly made up of commerce spending.
Government Style
The Nerobi Narabbian government is one that is both highly small, and highly effective. Nerobi Narabba is an ultra capitalist and ultra-democracy state, but unlike most countries, Nerobi Narabbian officials are voted in completely sperate from one-another and there are no parties. Each man, woman, or gender-queer runs for whatever Seat in Parliament they wish. The elections are the most televised and most watched occasion in Nerobi Narabba. Each candidate, and there are usually very many, are invited to a weekly debate on the largest news network in Nerobi Narabba, N4, Nerobi Narabba's News Network. Elections usually run every five years and campaigns last for about a year, although this is very different for each provincial election.
Federal Government
There is only one House of parliament within Nerobi Narabba's federal government, and even this House has very few Seats. The Seats in the House include: Pseudo-Dictator, Public Transportation Minister, Arch General, Public Health Minister, Budget Minister, Exalted Spiritual Advisor, Business Minister, Foreign Affairs Minister, The XX General, Propaganda Minister, Public Affairs Minister, The Representative from each Province, and The Representative of the people.
Nerobi Narabba's head of state has the tittle of Pseudo-Dictator. Generally the Pseudo-Dictator looks over the general running of the Nation, hardly ever intervening. The Pseudo-Dictator is the only Minster within the Federal government that can challenge another Minister's policy. When he does this he simply puts the unwanted policy up for a vote for the other Ministers. Some issues are required to be voted on by some, or all, ministers. The Pseudo-Dictator can veto any vote that is up for a vote as long as he has the support of at least 2 other Ministers. He cannot veto a policy he has challenged from another Minister.
Privinces and Provincial Government
Augusta
Named after the greatest of the Nerobi Narabbian Emperors, Lartus Augustus, this province is the one where the majority of the business and politics are run from. This is also the province that houses the Capital, Karaktitus. The citizens of Augusta are renown across the country for their wealth. Augusta is, however, the crime capital of Nerobi Narabba. Augusta is the most northern and most polluted of all the provinces, and is thus the coldest. Since Summer and Winter do not effect the temperature of Nerobi Narabba (dew to the large smog cloud that covers the whole country, and most neighboring countries) the temperature averages to about -20 Celsius for Augusta. Provincial elections are held often, mostly because the officials don't survive their own term.
Ailime
Originaly a seperate country given to the wife of an Emperor, whose name has dissapeared from all records, Ailime has become province within Nerobi Narabba once again. Should any part of Nerobi Narabba seem opressive, politicaly or civily, it would be Ailime. This is by no means saying much, Ailime residence are still free to do nearly whatever they wish. On the upside, Ailime has the lowest crime rate throughout Nerobi Narabba. Provincialy elections are very irregualr are far in-between with most officals serving for life.
Shenir
Shenir was the first and only (ex)nation to break off from Nerobi Narabba through a bloody conflict. Once the cold war started Shenir found itself on the named enemy list of the Nerobi Narabbian Empire, and was quickly conquered. The result of the past blood-baths between Shenir and the rest of Nerobi Narabba has caused it to be the least trusted and least favored of all the Nerobi Narabbian provinces. There has been on many occasions been riots against the Federal Government for no pedicular rhyme or reason held in Shenir. As there is much less industrialization within Shenir the smog cloud covering it is much thinner than the rest of the country causing the temperature to be much higher and much more varying than Nerobi Narabba as a whole. It's average temperature is about 0 Celsius.
