Ideas for new products can be submitted to the government, which may produce the item, with monetary reward to the creator as well as credit.
Politics
Official Name: The Glorious Semi-Democratic Liberal Collectivist Totalitarian Imperium of New Nicksyllvania
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)
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. Since all Industry, Property, and Media is state controlled there are no political meddling by Corporations, private donations to parties are banned. Parties must apply for a timeslot with which to advertise their party.

Ethics
The Nicksyllvanian Imperium adheres to both the traditional Samurai Bushido code and some Liberal ideals, taking the most beneficial elements from each, while adding in Extremist Nationalistic ideas. While technically non-racist, Nicksyllvanians discriminate based on Culture, reffering 3rd World nations as inept Barbarians, and many 1st World Nations as Fat and Spoiled.
The Five Virtues:
Gi – Rectitude
Yū – Courage
Rei – Respect
Meiyo – Honor/Glory
Chūgi – Loyalty
These Virtues are taught to all children at a young age, especially to breed Extreme Nationalism and Militarism. Failure to meet the standards considered the norm makes one an "outcast" shaming their family, the state adds to the insult by issuing names of outcasts and openly denouncing them. Outcasts can redempt themselves by doing Honourable deeds, usually in the Military.
Antagonism to any of these virtues are dealt with severly, especially on the Battlefiled. Cowards are executed by Impalement. Insubordination to Superiors is dealt with brutal beatings and sometimes execution. Treason and surrendering is dealt with most severely, usually weeks of painful torture before an agonizing death. Also the victims family is shamed and will be considered outcasts, forcing them to redempt themselves. The Victim also will not be qualified for a "rebirth".
These traits are also expected to be followed by the enemy, Nicksyllvanian Soldiers are extremely brutal to whomever surrender or show cowardice towards them, with the exeption of those who surrender before fighting takes place, as it is considered that the enemy is showing Rectitude by joining the Imperium.
Freedoms
Freedom of Speech (but not outright uneducated slander, ex: "The Emperor is Stupid")
Freedom of Privacy (but not privacy of location)
Freedom to Protest (In certain monitored districts, and not during work hours)
Freedom from Religion
Freedom of Assembly (Non-terrorist)
Freedom of Press (All of which are Nationalized)
Freedom of Thought
Freedom to Bear Arms
Freedom of Marriage
Freedom to Challenge to Duel
Equality of Women (Unless Military or work related)
Religion
Nicksyllvania is an Atheist State which seeks to destroy religion and other "barbaric" practices. Religion of all forms have been banned, although there may be private sessiona occuring in homes, where the Citizens right to privacy allow them to worship in safety.
Many nations may argue that the Emperor and the State themselves serve as religion. Nicksyllvania can be characterized as a Cult of Personality where the Emperor and Supreme Council are seen as Superhuman beings which all children of the state should emulate. Nationalism is rampant as are rascism and xenophobia, due to the frequent propagandazing many citizens become Fanatical and usually irrational devotees to the state.
The People however strongly believe in reincarnation, the Government encourages this idea claiming that they have taken cell samples from all citizens to allow them to be reborn should they die for the state. Although there is no direct evidence that this is even possible, the Government promotes the idea to remove the fear of death from the people.
Law and Order
Crime is almost Non-existant in Nicksyllvania, thanks to our Education system, our competent 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. They are fitted with explosive Collars and are Closely monitored by NISPCOMM, if a single prisoners runs away his company as well as himself will be decapitated.
