Major Cities

Themis is the capital of TCN, and is a huge and diverse city. It has the nations best university - The Chosen Regional University - and many people flock to Themis as tourists. The historic city of Rhea, and former capital city of TCN - is stunning. It have many of the old government buildings, and is full of history. It is in Rhea that "The Chosen Archive" is situated. In "The Chosen Archive" is the most extensive collection of documents anywhere in TCN. Although strictly not a city, the MRA (Multi Regional Assembly) is a vast expanse of land, and is where the national government is situated. Also in the MRA are the various HQ's of the TCAF divisions (TCAiF, TCLD, TCHG, TCNa, TCSF) and the HQ of TCPS (The Chosen Police Service) and The SS (The Secret Service).

Geography of TCN

TCN lies near the center of Europa, and so enjoys hot, Mediterranean weather. It rarely rains, and the sun if often beating down. The north of TCN (north of Saone) is mainly desolate and rocky, but attracts many visitors, who come to marvel at it's beauty. There are 2 major rivers in TCN, The Sholo River (Source: Extreme NE; Mouth: W Coast, parallel to Saone), and The K'Elo River (Source: 45 miles NW of MRA; Mouth: W Coast, nr. Hastlehoth). The K'Elo River runs through Hastlehoth, whilst The Sholo River runs through no major cities.

Nature

As mentioned above TCN enjoys glorious sunshine, and heat most of the year. For this reason there are no green forests.

TCN Government

TCN is a variant Constitutional monarchy system, this is a form of monarchical government established under a constitutional system which acknowledges a hereditary or elected monarch as head of state. "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" is the title given to the "monarch" of TCN. Upon inheriting the throne of TCN "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" is "monarch" for life. Upon the death of "The Chosen and Holy Emperor", his heir is crowned as the next "The Chosen and Holy Emperor". "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" does not have absolute power, but shares it with an elected Prime Minister and his/her government. "The Chosen and Holy Emperor", and The Prime Minister are also bound by The Constitution of TCN, and cannot deviate from it's laws. The Prime Minister is elected every 5 years, and upon election can decide upon his Ministers, that will head the Mysteries of TCN (below). "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" must agree on the appointments.

• Ministry of Defense
• Ministry of Industry
• Ministry of Transport and Local Government
• Ministry of Work and Pensions
• Ministry of International Relations and Foreign Affairs
• Ministry of Health and Sport
• Ministry of Education and Skills
• Ministry of Homeland Intelligence and Counter-Intelligence
• Ministry of Overseas Intelligence
• Ministry of TCAF and The SS
• Ministry of Law and Order
• Ministry of Culture and The Media
• Ministry of The Treasury and The Bank of TCN (State Run)
• Ministry of Constitutional Affairs

There are other sub-ministries that are not listed.

"The Chosen and Holy Emperor" and The Prime Minister must agree on all major decisions in TCN, but at the request of "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" or The Prime Minister can discuss any issue. If a decision has not been made within 1 week, then The Prime Minister makes the decision, but "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" can be given the power to overrule the Prime Minister, by a vote in "The Court of Ministries" (All The Heads of the above Ministries). This does not apply to "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" agreeing on the appointments of The Heads of the above Ministries.

In time of War "The Chosen and Holy Emperor" assumes complete control over TCN, until the end of the war. This process is subject to the agreement of "The Court of Ministries". The Prime Minister, and "The Court of Ministries" will assume their position again after the war, and will be paid during their absence. In effect they are on "Payed Vacation".

Military

TCAF (The Chosen Armed Forces) is split into these divisions:

TCAiF (The Chosen Air Force) 
TCLD (The Chosen Land Division)
TCNa (The Chosen Navy)
TCHG (The Chosen Home Guard)
TCSF (The Chosen Special Forces)

TCAF (The Chosen Armed Forces), is currently concerned with homeland security, and defense of our overseas assets. TCAF receive a lot of funding, and are ever increasing. TCAF conscripts civilians, and has them places in TCHG (The Chosen Home Guard). TCAF is split into 5 main branches:

The Chosen Land Division

TCN put a lot of funding into TCLD, and it is equipped with much of the latest technology. There are multiple mechanized divisions, and scout regiments. TCN provides its soldiers with extensive training, and most are well trained. TCLD relies on intelligent, and skilled officer to command troops, as the required skills are not taught to the grunts. There are no conscripts in TCLD, all men are volunteers, but many volunteer into TCHG.

Corps. within TCLD:

TCLD Catering and Logistics TCLD Artillery TCLD Engineers TCLD Mechanized Troops TCLD Rout Planning TCLD Scouting and Recon TCLD Infantry

The Chosen Air Force (TCAiF)

TCAiF receives the most funding of all the branches, and TCN relies on TCAiF to protect its boarders and guard the skies. TCAiF is and always has been a non-conscription force, they only take the best.

Corps. within TCAiF:

TCAiF Coastguards TCAiF Fast Attack TCAiF Bomber and Deep Strike TCAiF Airbourn Weapon Platform (Helicopters attached to Infantry Units) TCAiF Air Defense and Airborne Early Warning TCAiF Reconnaissance TCAiF Air Transport and Air-to-Air Refueling TCAiF Support Helicopter TCAiF Flying Training TCAiF Other Squadrons and Flights (such as display teams..etc..) TCAiF Seaborne Division TCAiF Logistics TCAiF Commercial Waterborne Protection Regiment (Created 25/Sept/2005)

The Chosen Navy (TCNa)

TCNa is currently undergoing massive reform, and receiving massive funding, in an attempt to "beef" it up. THCNa will soon be a formidable force. The Chosen HomeGuard (TCHG)

TCHG is almost entirely a conscript force. It's only concerns are law-and-order, and acting as a reserve force for the rest of TCAF. It is a large force, but nowhere near as well trained as the rest of TCAF, a weak opponent for a large trained army.

The Chosen Special Forces (TCSF)

These are the most secret part of TCAF. Their tasks are similar to the SAS of the UK. They are well trained and experts on recon, infiltration and sabotage. They are small in number but huge in skill. They are also skilled in assassination of key targets, defense of key targets...etc...

Religion

The Main Religion within TCN is Chosen Christianity. This is a radical but historic denomination of the original catholic church.

Sport

Sport is taken very seriously in TCN. All schools teach Rugby and Baseball. For each sport there are 3 different leagues. The teams that play in each league are decided on performance (as in UK Soccer Leagues). In Baseball(*) there is The Major League (26 Teams), The Minor League(30 Teams), and finally The Z League(42 Teams). In Rugby(**) there is The Premiership (20 Teams), Division B (20Teams), Division C (24 Teams). There are 64 professional Rugby Sides, and 98 professional Baseball Sides. There are also Collage Level Competitions for each sport. Every team plays every other team in the same league as themselves once (twice in The Major League, and The Premiership). The Baseball 3 points is awarded for a win, 2 points for a draw (no extra innings played), and 1 point for a loss (point for loss only awarded if the losing team was within 2 runs of the winning team) with a bonus point available for each home run socred. In Rugby 5 points is awarded for a win, 2 for a draw, and 0 for a loss. At the end of the season, the bottom 5 teams from each League (or Division) drop to the below League (or Division)(In the case of The Z League, and Division C the bottom 5 teams are not included in the next season, thus meaning the each year 37 teams in The Z League, and 19 teams in Division C actually compete). Also at the end of the season the top 5 teams advance the the League (or Division) ahead of them. In the case of The Major League and The Premiership to top 4 teams enter the playoffs (a knockout competition) to decide "The TCN Major League Champions" (Baseball) and "The Premiership Champions" (Rugby)

(*)The Major League is the best, followed by The Minor League and the worst is The Z League.
(**)The The Premiership is the best, followed by Division B and the worst is Division C.
