Rolatia is a large country in Earth VII, with a total of three locations (Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg in Europe, Sierra Leone and Liberia in Africa and El Salvador in Central America). It is renowned for its first class political freedoms and civil rights. Despite having a third-world economy, it is a paradise for those who are oppressed in their own countries. It is expanding often as the country experiences rapid population growth, with nearly 1 billion people and still growing
It has a mainly English-speaking population. However, Japanese is regarded as a semi-official language as it is spoken by many academics in the country. It is not the main language but as Japan is one of the premier technological powers, it is used by enough people to regard it as an offical language (albeit a secondary one in most cases). There are also a large amount who can speak Dutch (due to the old colony being based in Holland) and a fair amount of Spanish speakers due to the location in Europe and the reent takeover of El Salvador plus various other minor languages

History
Roleplay
Rolatia was originally a colony of England formed from Holland, Belgium and Luxembourg in 2008. The governing powers were extremely pro-rights and pro-freedoms, which is why Rolatians were allowed to vote for people on local officials. However, there was still a strong drive for total freedom for many years. The English government refused for nearly 20 years, before finally breaking down in 2024 and releasing the country
Government Goals
The government is built around the premise of civil and political rights for all, and the education and welfare of its many citizens. Its economy has fallen by the wayside but it still stands strong as a shining beacion of hope. It has been forced to adopt the controversial strategy of trade concessions for humanitarian aid recently, but it declares this is not an attack on freedom of refugees but a necessary step to boost the economic prowess of this huge nation, as right now it cannot quite afford some of its technological aims to make Rolatia the most advanced nation on Earth - the great dream of Dr Edwards, a keen technologist and an expert in the field of computers. They have driven the basic cost of living down extremely low making life better in total
Technology
The Rolatian army is not particularly large, at an approximated size of 0.1% (2041 estimates) of the population currently, and is not particularly advanced technology (around the turn of the millenium) - though it has battlsuits of the era of the second decade of the millenium and mass-produced transport planes from Czardas However, their technological status is currently post modern (see Tech Level in many scientific fields, and despite having no special military technology, they have highly advance computing systems. Their systems are around the best in the era. They are also extremely cheap, with systems that would be regarded as very powerful in 2005 (4GHZ, 1TB hardrive, 2GB RAM) selling for for very cheap prices. There are also tiny food costs thanks to superb advances. It has cost the nation finacially in total but it had made sure their necessities are met for so much cheaper.
Politics
Political System
The Rolatian system is one where political views are allowed to be expressed freely. As thus, there are many candidates for each MM position, with 5 recognised political parties
The representation shows how many Members of the House each county has (it depends on the amount of sub-counties). Each year an election is help and the winners are elected to the House of Democracy. The Prime Minister is elected depending on which party gets the most seats.
The government has a simple administrative system. At the top is the Prime Minister, who oversees everything. Next is his Cabinet (the system is similiar to England) who are appointed to certain categories. This is then passed down to the leaders of each county, then to the sub-county leaders. The importances of MHs (Members of the House) is on new laws. They vote on new laws and therefore decide on the general governing direction.
