Politics
Chief of State: Emperor Nicholas Masakaze Sawatsky
Head of Government: Supreme Comrade Generalissmo Nicholas Masakaze Sawatsky
The Emperor serves as the Representative of the people, and chooses the Supreme Council who serve as the main political branch, creating legislation and enforcing it. The Parliament may veto any legislation the Supreme Council makes with a 30% opposed vote, although the emperor can veto the veto. The Supreme Comrade Generalissmo is elected from the Supreme Council members to be the head of the Supreme Council, he is given the power to directly veto any decision the Supreme Council makes regardless of imperial permission. The Emperor may choose his heir, which must be male. The heir is not limited to the bloodline and members of the Supreme Council or parliament may be chosen, as long as they wed a direct descendent of the Emperor (Although gay marriage is legal, Homosexuals are not permissable to be Emperor and homosexuality itself is nonexistant). If no heir is chosen or is indeterminable, the descendent with the highest military rank will receive the crown.
The Parliament has 500 seats and is determined by porportional vote. They are given the power to submit legislations to the Supreme Council, who may edit it to suit national needs, unless they are vetoed by parliament unless they are vetoed by the emperor unless vetoed by the Supreme Comrade Generalissmo. Elections are Decadely due the the Nicksyllvanian Bureacracy's obsession with easily calculated numbers. Voting is voluntary for all people, however if someone doesn't vote, their vote is automatically registered to vote for the current ruling party, since they took no effort to vote it is safe to conclude they are happy with the current party.

Political Doctrine: Liberal-Conservative Socialist Imperial Totalitarianism
The Social Imperialist Party of Nicksyllvania:
Political Doctrine: Liberal Socialist Imperial Totalitarianism
Recent legislation has either banned other opposition parties, or forced mergers of the parties into one of the 2 main.
Religion
Nicksyllvania is officially an Atheist State, however multiple ancient religious traditions and beliefs are still held by the populace, such as belief in the Emperor's Divinity and the sacred soil of Nicksyllvania. These beliefs are further reinforced by the educational process and by the military. Festivals are held in celebration of each season, usually on sundays as to not intrude on factory work hours.
Law and Order
Crime is almost Non-existant in Nicksyllvania, thanks to our Education system, our excellent social programs, our competent and efficient police force, and harsh punishments.
All Citizens have a GPS Chip attached to them so their location can be tracked anywhere. Camera's are an invasion of privacy, the intention is to know the location of potential suspects, not know what they are doing at all times.
1st Class Crime: For the Most serious Crimes against the State, 1st Class Crimes are dealt with Extremely Harshly. The Offender Serves in labour camp for 5 years while sustaining severe beatings while being kept alive. At the end of the term, they are stripped, put on a humiliating costume and are denailed, Castrated, and foot roasted publically, then boiled alive and finally Flayed, with their head impaled upon a stick.
2nd Class Crime: Criminals are sent to forced labour camps for 10-15 years. At the end they are offered a chance to commit seppuku with no executioner. If refused the criminal will be beheaded, if the prisoner attempts to flee or cheat death, he will receive a 1st Class Death.
3rd Class Crime: The Criminal will be given a chance at Redemption by commiting Seppuku with no executioner. If refused, he is given 2nd Class Crime treatment.
4th Class Crime: 6 months to 5 years of Labour Camp
5th Class Crime: For minor crimes, 5 minutes to one hour beating.
In Times of War, 3rd Class and higher Criminals will be entitled to join Penal regiments to Fight for their country to redeem themselves, or at least save themselves from an otherwise painful death.
