Provinces and territories

Canada is composed of 17 Area, and 12 of them are currently contested. The Area are Arcadia, North Urion, South Urion, Sarpedon and Methelas. They have a large degree of autonomy from the federal government. Each has its own provincial or territorial symbols.

The provinces are responsible for most of Terra Arcadia social programs (such as health care, education, and welfare).

History

The Community of Terra Arcadia is a tiny, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Social Welfare, with areas such as Law & Order and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. The average income tax rate is 47%, but much higher for the wealthy. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing.

Voting is voluntary. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown. Terra Arcadia's national animal is the Squig, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Arcadian Dollar.
