The Federal Republic of Oliverry or Oliverry, French: La république fédérale d'Oliverry, Limbrogidlian: Feudaler Republit Oliverit, is a highly developped and democratic country in Atlantian Oceania. It is located at the North point of Calania. Oliverry is also a member of the Strategic Defense League.

Oliverrians can't be considered as a whole when it comes to political beliefs. In the South of the country, they are socially socialists and economically communists. In the North of the country, they're socially conservatives and economically protectionists. In the middle, they're socially libertarians and economically conservative. So, many things differenciate one group from another. For instance, in 2000, when the government decided to legalize same-sex marriages, both south and central Oliverry was ok with that. But, in north, nearly everybody was against the motion, even if it passed and was never revoked since that day. But, everyone in the nation was happy about the fact Marijuana was legalized in 1992 (when the Marijuana Party won the elections). Citizens enjoy one of the highest levels of civil rights in Atlantian Oceania, but political rights level could be higher, as the population is not very often asked about what they want.

Before the arrival of Jioulit Twaxlit and Option Oliverry to the reigns of the country in 2024, the country's foreign policies were quasi-unexistant. The only attempt was made by Sam Gagnon in 2012 about whether or not Oliverry should join the SDL, but the proposal was revoked by the parliament. Since 2024, Oliverrian foreign policies tend to complicate. The Oliverrian government does everything it can to make the economy better, as are proving the late subventions to Oliverrian companies and the international treaties it tries to sign. Politically, the present government tries to make positive contacts with democratic nations. Lately, the joining of the SDL proved that Oliverry was ready to prepare in case of war.

History

The history of Oliverry can be divided in 6 parts: Ancient times(up to 1451 AD), The First Kingdom(1451-1801), the First Empire(1801-1899), the Second Kingdom(1899-1931), the Republic(1931-2004), the Second Empire(2004-2007) and the 2nd Republic(2007-)

Ancient times

In old times, many Europeans came to Oliverry's today's land to trade with the inhabitants of the time: the Limbrogidlians. Those Limbrogidlians were ruling on a territory that is 4 times Oliverry. But, in 1347, when Europeans started to establish colonies all around their empire, the Limbrogidlians were going back to the 3 provinces called today "East Limbrogidlia", "West Limbrogidlia" and "Limbrgidlia Francophone". In 1400, they formed a new kingdom: The Limbrogidlian Kingdom. But there were tensions in the Kingdom and, 1447, Limbrogidlia separated in the 3 provinces we know today. From 1400 to 1650, European colonists lost the trace of those Limbrogidlians.

The First Kingdom

Oliverry was founded in 1456 by a Metis(Semi-Limbrogidlian, Semi-European):John Oliver: the king Oliver I. Oliverry was the old name of Marshalliston. It was the greatest colony of all those Europeans settled. Oliver I was a good king and accepted many liberties, abolished servitude to the king and things like that. He ruled on the Kingdom from 1456 to 1500(he was 23 years-old when he came to the throne).

The First Empire

The next 10 rulers(Oliver II to Oliver X) were kings form 1500 to 1800 and nothing interesting happened. But in 1801, a new guy came to the throne, he was called Bertrand I. He wanted to be an Emperor so he changed the name of the nation to the Celestal Empire of Oliverry. The territory until that was made of only the province of Capital. By the time, Limbrogidlians shared the territory in 3 parts: the French one held the South, the Western one all the Today's Oliverrian Territory where we speak English and the Eastern one of Only the province we know today. So he declared war to the three Limbrogidlias and annexed them 1 after the other 1. So when his reign was completed, the country was like it looks now. But the nation was in bankruptcy so the next emperor, Oliver XI, the first frenchie to be leader of the nation, had to face very big problems. Western Limbrogidlia revolted in 1876 and declared his independance to Oliverry but Oliverry went destroying them and the peace was restored.

The Second Kingdom

In 1899, the paysans rebelled, decapited the Emperor Bertrand II and instaured a constitutional Monarchy. So the King was John I and the Prime Minister was Louis-Paul Dubuc. There has been 6 elections in the time. They were all won by the Conservative party except the last one(in 1929) that was won by the Democratic Party.

The Republic

In 1931, the king died so the prime minister of the time: Johann Lischwinsberg, decided to take more place on the constitution. So he became president of Oliverry and founded the republic of Oliverry. In 1986, the President: Louis Laval decided to colonize a teritory. But he didn't know which one. So he went see the Limbrogidlians to ask them where was their "Mysti land". It was the Autonom Territory of Blurnberg. He colonized it and gave them a chief to control the inhabitants. It was designed by the President for 5 years after a consultation with the population.

The Great changes time

In 2003, the Federalist party took form with, as leader, Olivier Turcotte. He said: "I will change the country by giving to the provinces more liberty and...". In 2003, he won the election. So He said: Modification of the constitution!!! President changed for a Great federator, added a Prime minister, gave to the provinces a little federator, and changed the name of the nation to the "Federation of Oliverry". But in 2004, when he won a second election, with his friend and Prime Minister Sam Gagnon, Olivier Turcotte declared the Second Empire. So he took the name of Augustus Oliverus and of Olivier I.

The second Republic

In 2007, the Emperor resigned and the parliament declared an election. Sam Gagnon, the prime minister, became the 11th president of Oliverry. In 2011, Oliverry got split in 2 parts: Oliverry in the southern french part, and Limbrogidlia in the Northern part. In 2014, a vote of non-confidence made the Federalist party declare new elections, which they lost. The Neo-Democratic party won the majority at the parliament. A new president has been elected as well: François Paquin, elected on the first turn

School system

In Oliverry, school in Mandatory from 6 to 14. After, there is non-mandatory school(students are not forced to go to these, but this is strongly recommended that they go in these)

School grades

Each grades has its particularities, like the mandatory subjects, the age, etc.

Grade Primaire

This grade is for people aged from 6 to 12, each age having its own grade. So, it is divided in 7 years. In this grade, the focus is put on learn by fun. It is divided in 2 parts: Grade Primaire Debutant and Grade Primaire Finissant.

Grade Primaire Debutant

The Debutant contains the 4 first years of the Grade Primaire. Subjects taught to the students are mainly Maths, French, Physical Education and Arts. No English will be taught, unless Students go to an English institution. In this case, English replaces French as a taught language. At the end of the 4th year, there is a big test that decides if the student is apt to go in the Grade Primaire Finissant. If he passes the test, he can. These tests are standardized by the Ministry of Education so that it's the same for every school of the country.

Grade Primaire Finissant

The Finissant contains the last 3 years of the Primaire. Subjects taught are mainly the same, but, they are becoming a bit harder. Some subjects are added, like English and Geography/History. At the end of the 3 years, each subject has a big exam, that reunites everything the student learned in the last 7 years. If he succesfully do it, he can go to the Grade Secondaire. Else, he has to restart his 7th year of Grade Primaire.

Grade Secondaire

This grade lasts 2 years. It is for students aged 13 and 14. As usually, the ages are only there for usual purpose only. Subjects are nearly the same, but they are harder. English is becoming learned as French is. Natural Sciences are added to the mandatory subjects list, but Arts leaves its place to Dramatic Arts. After the 2 years, there is a final exam for each subjects that decides if the student receives his Diplome d'Etudes Generales. If he does, the student has the right to go in non-mandatory studies or to stay home, do nothing but going on IRC.

Grade Tertiaire

The first non-mandatory grade. In this grade, the student has choices to do on the subjects he wants to have. This grade is mandatory to go in Oliverrian Universities or colleges. Sure, without that, the student may try the Professional Formation programs so that he can have a job, but these are not as good as colleges or universities programs, and the student often has to perfect his formation in colleges to have a higher job. This grade lasts 2 years and decides the admissibility of the person to college or university.
