    Barsrobban dictatorship leads into a civil war with Qostaoaye (ignore this post)
     
    Dictator of Barsrobba, Jenzchuvmensko Ludhandeoe, (yes this is obviously a picture of Lukashanco but it resembles Jenzchuvmensko Ludhandeoe.) recently just rose into power over a rapid growing ‘rebellion’ over political propaganda and gave a speech saying, “We have territorial right to this territory, and therefore ours, the treaty was false of us joining in Holy Qostaoaye, it was not voted over the will of the people! Yet civilians believe in this “insecure and non-stable federation” of injustice for will of the people, it is our responsibility of the will of the nation, if you want to migrate out east, go for it! We will make a difference even if we don’t get international recognition, I don’t fuc*ing care of this supposed, “federation.” because it’s not, I hope you understand fo civilization for Barsrobba, please go out, and tell this to the people.” - Jenzchuvmensko Ludhandeoe 3:19 PM Dec 5, 2021. Holy Qostaoaye does not like the actions of this new dictator and is set to take action, with whom? Not known at this public record of time…

    The Future of Barsrobban Relationship with Qostaoaye and Eferos and it’s religion
    Jenzchuvmensko Ludhandeoe is against Holynism as yet he says, “It’s a national disgrace, not an holy organization.” Yet, Qostaoaye has open political and religious freedom and will for the people, but yet, Jenzchuvmensko Ludhandeoe denies that this is actually the case. Jenzchuvmensko Ludhandeoe  will make Barsrobba a, “country.” Qostaoaye obvious denies this and is open to, ‘Remilitarize Barsrobba as soon as possible.” Basically what Qostaoaye is saying is that they will take back Barsrobba and remove it’s dictatorship of it’s people and hopefully they will get back to diplomatic relationships with Qostaoyae……

    New Flag of Holy Qostaoyae
    The Government held a referendum of a new flag change, then the people voted for which flag they wanted to be the new flag and the, “Holy-Colored Banner.” (the one on top) got a winning vote of 3,281,994 votes but you maybe asking, “What does this new flag mean?” Well, the pinkish color represents the unity of the hard working people and a prospering federation, the light blonde represents the beaches of the Qostaoayen coast and also represents the will of the people and the future to come, the white strips in the middle represents the boundary of heartache and peace and love and respect for the nation, the emblem in the middle represents the nation as a whole.

    Federation of Inner Ryxtylopia reacted to Giovanniland in The Lavender Festival of Giovanniland   
    The Lavender Festival of Giovanniland
    The Lavender Festival is one of the most prominent Giovannilandian holidays, along with New Year (January 1st), Empire Day (January 16th), Kingdom Revolution Day (June 15th), Harvonian Day (August 29th), and Constitution Day (October 30th). It happens during the week before New Year, starting from December 25th, meaning it's also often considered together with New Year composing its final day. 
    The festival dates back to the age of the Lavandulan Empire, with archaeological records pointing to the first edition being held around 1100 BF during the reign of Emperor Tsering II. The capital Uryde, at the time known as Lavandula, had prominent lavender fields around it and was thus chosen as the main location for the event. The tradition has passed down generation to generation ever since, from the days of the Lavandulan Empire, then the post-imperial Duchy of Quorivo, and continues to the present day.

    The flag of the Lavanda Prima region.
    The green represents the soil, the lavender represents the plant's fields, and the blue represents the sky.
    The lavender is commonly seen in Giovanniland as a symbol as prosperity and renewal, hence the festival's date just before the New Year. However, since the modern calendar was only introduced in Giovanniland through the Abrentans, the celebration has not always happened during the same time of the year. Only after Emperor Giovanni II the Great unified the entire island under the Giovannilandian Empire did the celebration expand beyond the Lavandulan region and start to happen all across the nation. The festival passed on to the modern Kingdom of Giovanniland, and its holiday status was enshrined into law after the passage of the Holidays Act of 1253. 
    Giovanniland celebrates the holiday with various activities. Lavender is planted into home gardens some months in advance of the event in order to have them fully grown, and lavender bunches are used to decorate the insides of houses. Lavender aroma compounds and perfumes from lavender oil are also used to give a pleasant odor, and various food recipes also use parts of the lavender and are commonly baked during the festival. Last but not least, it is a common tradition to leave some lavender bunches at the doorstep, so that good fortunes can ensue for the following year.
    Therefore, one can see how important this festival is for Giovannilandians from all the nation, and especially the northern part where it originated from. The current mayor of Uryde, Gyalseno Velanio-Lodeno from the Partito Librale-Demokrata, has capitalized on this opportunity to improve the city and the nation's economy through the creation of the upcoming Lavender Fair, with several markets across the city taking part. Each day, a different lavender product will be featured in those markets and have a discount on its price, while other lavender products will be sold normally, although the specific items won't be revealed until their own day. Furthermore, Prime Minister Amore Gile Abrente is expected to visit the fair and deliver a speech about this important celebration, helping on visibility.

    Culture
    Ryxtylopian Culture was shaped by the cultures that came before mainly the: Tslaaní, Yilanian and Pestalpan cultures, since they were the primary cultures in the populated regions of Ryxtylopia, a lot of cultural development happened after the fall of the Guiltavacha dictatorship in Ryxtylopia in 1389, during the dictatorship period, cultural displays were supressed by the goverment as they were seen as "uncivilized" and the goverment tried to make a new image of Ryxtylopian culture.
     
    With the end of the Guiltavacha dictatorship in 1389, Ryxtylopian culture continued its evolution to adapt to the modern world, and this evolution continues to this day, with the younger people transforming the traditions and the Ryxtylopian identity as a whole.

     
    Clothing
    Traditional Ryxtylopian clothing is varied, and can ddepend on the region, with a divide between east and west, and the north islands of Tirilpa and Pinichaca also having their own traditional clothing being separated from the mainland.
    But men mostly wear a light short-sleeved shirt called a Hipilca, they can be different colors but most are white or khaki, some Hipilcas can have stripes with different patterns ranging from flowers to complex drawings, and recently long-sleeves version of this shirt have become popular, despite this basically all Hipilcas are made by hand, and the goverment has protected theese small producers despite several scandals with large scale manufacturers.
    For pants again the clothing is mostly light, ocasionally shorts are used, and there theese pants can continue the lines with patterns on them, they're mainly khaki, if not black, unlike the shirts theese can be just normal pants you get from the store but the ones that continue the patterns seen in the shirts are locally made.
    And finally hats, men wear medium to long brim hats called Sonquibas, theese can vary in size and are usually made of straw, but more expensive ones are made from different materials, common colors are once again khaki, white and black and hats usually don't have patterns on them, if they do they're usually pretty small and not very noticable.
     
                                                       
    Seen above, examples of Hipilcas, with different patterns, theese patterns vary depending on the region.
    Seen below, an example of a Sonquiba, they can be quite varied in terms of material used to make them.

     
    Traditional clothing for women usually consists of similarly to men a short sleeved shirt called a Guitivyá (or it can be without sleeves entireley) with patterns depicting nature, culture, and other stuff also present, theese usually being all over the shirt, the background of theese shirts can be different colors, mainly white, khaki and black, but the patterns can go wild with the colors since they're meant to stand out.
    Then you have long skirts called Guitavayás, again continuing the patterns seen in the shirts, theese do weigh a bit, and they are held to the shirts by leather belts, but poorer people can use strings or ropes to hold it toogheter, the skirts are produced locally, since mass producers have a hard time adapting to the local market and copying patterns.
    Women also have the option of wearing a dress theese dresses are called Giutachá'atas, that basically is a combination of the shirt and the skirt, but with more complex patterns, cheaper dresses can take weeks to make and more expensive ones months, so dresses are usually more expensive than the Guitivyás and Guitivayás combined, so they're mostly used in special ocasions (parties and festivals).
     
                                                        
    Seen above, examples of Guitivyás, the patterns can be in different spots or all over the shirts.
    Seen below, Guitavayás, they can have or not have patterns, those that don't usually have more vibrant colors to make them stand out.
                                                       
     

     
    Food
    There's a lot of variety in food, different regions having different sorts of food. But a staple throught most of Ryxtylopia is basically any type of seafood, being basically a peninsula in the northernmost point of mainland Aura, the people in Ryxtylopia have always relied a lot on fishing and this can be seen in the variety of dishes that have some sort of fish-meat in them usually fried or boiled, they're also usually accompanied by grains like rice, corn and other grains and many types of sauces.
     
                                                       
    Some examples of Ryxtylopian food in the coast, on both you can see its accompanied by some sort of grain.
     
    Toscadas are also quite popular (basically hardened tortillas) they're easy to make, and they taste good with any sauce or food, in Ryxtylopia a popular sauce is Hibachaca Sauce, its a sauce made from tomatoes, peppers, onions and other ingredients for seasoning, its spicy but not too spicy and many people like it that way.
     
                                                       
    On the left, Hibachaca Sauce, and on the right a plate with Toscadas, theese can be accompanied by almost any flavor imaginable.
     
    In the center of the country the food changes, as its more mountainous and further away from the coast the people there rely more on animals, goat meat is very popular, and its cooked in many varieties, fried, deep fried, or "smoked" (basically instead of having it a flame or hot surface cook it, its cooked with smoke from coal or wood).
    In the drinks department, drinks called "Aqui'xel(s)" are widley consumed, basically mixes of water, sometimes milk, and different mixes of grains, theese drinks have been consumed for centuries in this region, despite this Ryxtylopians love soda, with local soda brands "Rifrescantí" and "Chapas" being very popular, while foreign brands still hold a considerable ammount of the soda market.
    In Pinichaca coffee is produced and "Pinichacan coffee" is very popular there, and still consumed throught a lot of the country, Pinichacan coffee is charactarized by being very sweet, but it losses its distinct taste when cold so its better to drink it while its hot, and therefore its consumed in small ammounts at a time, with Ryxtylopian coffee mugs being smaller than the avarge just for this reason.
     
                                                       
    On the left, an example of Aqui'xel drinks, as said before they are mixes of different grains along with water or milk, on the right Pinichacan Coffee.
     
    To finalize, the national dish of Ryxtylopia is a relativley spicey shrimp soup called "Cameron al Caxijarro" its most consumed in costal areas, and its kinda popular with tourists, its usually accompanied with grains (most of the time rice) or potatoes and other vegetables.

    Bean
    Probably the most important aspect in Ryxtylopian cuisine is the bean, beans have always been a good dish in Ryxtylopia, and consumed widley in many different forms since the earlist periods of Ryxtylopian history, they've been eaten in several ways, beans are a good dish to accompany other foods, they can be made into soup, they are easily transportable and stored, and they've throught the years been combined into other foods and dishes, meaning that Ryxtylopian chefs throught the centuries have learned to master the art of the bean.

     
    Music
    Music in Ryxtylopia varies depending on the region, but something that most regions have in common when it comes to making music is one instrument: the guitar. For centuries ever since the guitar was introduced to Ryxtylopia it became a really popular instrument, and many musical genres revolved around it.
    You can go anywhere in Ryxtylopia and doesn't matter the climate, mood or whatever it is you can probably find someone playing the guitar, but of course what also sets the regions apart is the pace, tone and instruments played alongside the guitar.
    For example in the west, states of Saxa'atí, Yilanit, Elaaní and Carraizal the guitar is played mostly alone, despite this a popular instrument to complement it is the acordeon, its also played with a faster pace. In the center and east the guitar usually finds itself complemented either by wind instruments (mostly the trumpet, trombone, the tuba and the clarinet) or percussion instruments (mainly drums and the marimba)
    In Pinichaca and Tirilpa, percussion instruments are also quite popular, but compared to the center of the country the pace of music is faster and on ocassions the guitar is complemented by a harp or sometimes just replaced by it.
     

    Example of Pinichacan/Tirilpan Music (note the use of the harp alongside the guitar)
    Displays of music in Ryxtylopia vary, most take place at parties and special ocations and they aren't usually over the top concerts, while another many take place in the streets, parks or public areas either as entretainment or to ask for money theese happen since traditional music has remained popular in Ryxtylopia, although other genres have been growing in popularity.

     
    Festivities
    Ryxtylopia has many holidays, and festivities. Each Region having their own festivities, ill focus on the more popular ones, the ones but even more on what they consist of and what they are celebrating. It will be a list in order from January to December (i do plan to add more)
    [WIP]

     
    Sports
    In Ryxtylopia, the most popular sport is football or soccer (or Fiutbol) whatever you wanna call it, Ryxtylopia has 3 professional leagues ("Liga A - Natxianal", "Liga B - Natxianal" and "Liga C - Natxianal" ) with several football teams to choose from, but even at a non-professional level football is by far the most popular sport in Ryxtylopia, its not uncommon to see empty plots or fields used for football, stadiums ranging in size and age, the first division (LigaA - N.) lasts from January 8th to April 16th, it has 22 teams with the two bottom-finishing teams being relegated, the second division (Liga B - N.) goes from August to November, it has 20 teams , with the 2 top finishing teams ascending to the first division, whilst the bottom 4 finishing teams descend to the "C".
    On the other hand there are two other main sports that are popular in Ryxtylopia, Rugby and Baseball (or Basibol), starting with Baseball currently second in terms of popularity but not by much, it became popular in Ryxtylopia during the 1330's, and Ryxtylopia currently has a professional baseball league (Basi-A) with several teams mostly from the west and Tirilpa participating, as well as a 2nd smaller league (Basi-B) for smaller clubs or clubs that fail to live up to the standards of the main league, the first division of ryxtylopian baseball takes place from May to August with 18 teams, the 3 worst getting relegated, the second division takes place from August to November, with the 3 best teams ascending to the first division and the bottom 5 descending to the "C".
    And finally a sport that in Ryxtylopia recently exploded in popularity: Rugby, in this part of Aura definitley the newest out of the 3 main sports being introduced to Ryxtylopia during the Giltavas dictatorship around the mid 80's, it was introduced by foreigners but the sports started gaining attention around the 1400's and the first (and so far only) Rugby league formed oficially in 1401, RYXRugby has since its formation suffered from being not very cometitive, with Chacas and Trinchanancó RC dominating the league, but the league has a lot of potential in their players, and Rugby in Ryxtylopia is on the rise after the succesful debut in RWC4, the Ryxtylopian rugby league only has 10 teams so far, with plans to expand proposed but not agreed on, the second division of ryxtylopian rugby isn't considered a "Professional" league, thus receiving less funding than the other "B" leagues, only 1 team gets relegated from the first division and only 1 team gets promoted from the second division.

    Economy
    The Ryxtylopian economy is best described as a developing economy, with a GDP (PPP) of $258,708,019,287, however with a population of over 22 million people, this means the GDP per capita is only $11,411, being the 3rd lowest in Aura after Dilber and Bilyad, despite this the economy is rapidly in development, however it has been anything but stable for the last 5 decades of Ryxtylopian history, with inflation, recessions and Ryxtylopia defaulting on its debt in two separate occations (in 1388 and 1402) being products of a bloated bureocracy, inbalanced spending and corruption.
    Ryxtylopia (currently) works under an open economy with limited government intervention, however with some intervention still present in some areas; however this seems to be changing as the economy continues to open up with Ryxtylopia seemingly on the path to laissez faire economics, especially when it comes to encouraging foreign investment, but this has resulted in new cases of corruption, the defunding of several government agencies and the widening of already-existing wealth gaps in the country.
    Ryxtylopia uses as its currency the (Ryxtylopian) Ryx, a relativley new currency, which replaced the "Darrón" a currency introduced at the start of the 1300's that suffered massive inflation in the 1380's and then completley lost its value in the early 1400's in one of the worst recessions in the history of Aura and the worst by far in Ryxtylopian history.
    The Ryx (RRY) can vary, and isn't the most stable currency, usually fluctuating around 43 Ryxes per $1, currently it sits at:
    $1 = 46RRY
     
    Unemployement rates in Ryxtylopia are difficult to calculate due to a lot of citizens working in the informal economy, its speculated to sit at around 6.34%, however a lot of jobs in Ryxtylopia still pay poorly compared to jobs in the rest of the world, whilst the government does provide services like universal healthcare and education up to high-school, many areas lack theese services, and even then a lot of the lower income families still spend large ammount of money on essentials (food, water) this translating to there being very little economic mobility between social classes.
    When it comes to economic composition, Agriculture remains in Ryxtylopia as a pretty large sector of the economy, at around 8.64%, while Industries sit at 39.87% with manufacturing quickly growing and the mining sector, which used to be Ryxtylopia's largest industrial sector, starting to stagnate. Finally the service sector is estimated to sit at 51% of the economy, this last sector also rapidly growing despite facing arguably more issues than the industrial sector.
    When it comes to taxes, Ryxtylopia has graduated taxation, with richer people (on paper) paying a higher % in taxes than poor people, however this system has several exemptions and loopholes. Tax breaks aren't that hard to obtain for a rich person or company, at least with the current administration, especially with the strategy of attracting international investment to the country.
    Products sold in Ryxtylopia are subject to a tax called the Impysto Natxinal di Ventas (the National Sales Tax), with the exemption of essential goods (i.e. food, water, some drugs and medicine, etc.) this tax varies depending on the good.

    Federation of Inner Ryxtylopia reacted to Chris in [WIP] Hanita Gracse Factbook   
    Government
    Motto:
    "Victoria y Vida, Hanita Querida"
     
    Hanita Gracse is a Semi-Presidential Republic. In the year of 1389, the nation had adopted its current constitution, after which the nation had lifted martial law, and continued reconstruction. The president is the head of state, they are elected by the alternative vote, if they win more than 50% of the vote, they serve for a four year term, and two consecutive terms, if they are to be reelected. President Huerta has been serving the nation since 1414. The prime minister, appointed by the president, is the head of government; they have no term limits, but will be accountable to a parliamentary vote of no confidence. Prime Minister Fidel, has been serving since 1416. The government is composed of 3 separate branches that regularly check and balance one another. Members of the executive and parliament are elected by the populace, whilst the judiciary are nominated, or rather appointed. Voting is voluntary, and the eligible voting age starts at the age of 16. 

    President Huerta Rodriguez

    Prime Minister Fidel Martinez
    Executive 
    Although the president is head of state, they act as the head executive, and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of Hanita Gracse, known as the Revolutionary Armed Guard, make appointments to other civil and military offices, and deliberately make foreign and national policies and security. Some of which would have to be filtered through the prime minister. The prime minister holds regulatory power that coordinates the actions, preventing contradictions from different ministers, and implementing laws set out by the president that were deliberately made from the cabinet of the president, and oversees the daily affairs within the government. Ministers of the cabinet are appointed by the president upon a proposal by the prime minister. The cabinet demonstrates executive unity, as they are entrusted to carry out their mission within their area, including but not limited to political policies by an administration. 
     
    Legislation
    The legislation of Hanita Gracse is officially called "Parliament". Parliament is a bicameral government organ, made up by the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate Chamber, collectively called the United Assembly of Hanita Gracse. Both chambers have their own separate voting systems, more details in elections. They review and pass laws, monitor the government, and assess public policy. Whenever a bill is examined, be it executive or parliament, it must be passed with identical text, once there is an adopted definitive answer, it passes. The deputy chamber has 244 seats portional to the population, whilst the senate has only 20 seats. Aside from the federal assembly, most local legislative branches are unicameral. 
    Judicial
    The Council of the Federation, is the highest administrative jurisdiction. It advises the preparation of bills, ordinances and decrees, answers legal affairs, conducts studies, and ensures the government's compliance with the law. That law is modeled after civil law. They are also responsible for daily management of the courts of appeals, and administrative tribunals. 
    Elections
    Every election year, the populace and workers have a day off in the designated day marked for the year's elections. The date has been set October the 2nd, since the adoption of the current constitution. The President of the Federation, is elected with the alternative vote, or as it is sometimes called, ranked choice, to determine the nation's preferences. This system is also applied to several governor, mayoral and sheriff elections. In the case of voting for representatives into the Chamber of Deputies, they are elected through the single transferable vote, Droop quota that favors major parties, whilst most local elections use the Hare system instead because it favors smaller parties within local elections. Senators are elected by local legislators, under an electoral college that will at its best make an accurate representation of the state's local bodies and their population, by a first-past-the-post vote held by the members within the local offices. 
    Diplomacy
    Hanita Gracsian foreign relations are summed to be characterized with a non-interventionist approach to foreign conflicts without relation to any of Hanita's allies or herself, and instead favors cooperation, settling down for trade agreements and defense pacts. The nation's diplomacy is headed by the Minister of the Diplomatic Corps, Ramon Adalberto Villa. The minister is to be well advised by both parliament and the president at their respected requests on any case of foreign affairs. The Diplomatic Corps, despite its name, does not under any circumstances control a portion of the military, rather there are individual voluntary officers that accompany the agents in such difficult situations, acting out as guards, under any and every situation. These officers as well don't dress in the default, ceremonial dress or working and combat, military uniforms, rather they go with the usual business attire that the diplomatic agents wear. As a small nation, it'll ally itself with any foreign major power with a strong cooperative government that'll guarantee the nation's demands, to which leads up to some critics asking of the nation's goals with said foriegn power, most famous of which comes from the Conservatives, that had suspicion within the neighborhood and abroad. When dealing with Hanita diplomats, the nation would grant foreign aid to its non-military and military allies, some equipment, and even some workers.

    Ryxtylopia (Officially the Federation of Ryxtylopia) is a country located on the northern-most part of the Auran continent, as well as holding some islands further north and off the coast, it has 2 land borders with Bilyad and Dilber in the South-West and South Respectivley, as well as sharing a maritime border with Ageros to the north, west of Ryxtylopia you have the Mille Mer and eventually Polaris, while to the east you find the Timeworn Sea and eventually Doll Guldur.
     

     
    Geography
    Ryxtylopia is divided into several regions, but its main geographic features are the divide between the semi arid and arid regions from the more temperate regions by the Ryxavinas mountains that go through the centre of the country, and of course, the channel between the mainland and the islands of Pinichaca and Tirilpa.
    The Western portion of the country is mostly semi-arid forests, woodlands and scrub, with the most southern points of the country being mostly semi-arid desert and shrub.
    The Eastern portion of the country is more temperate, with temperate forests and some grasslands in the south-east, this climate also applies to the two main islands north of the mainland: Pinichaca and Tirilpa respectively.
    In terms of international borders Ryxtylopia counts with 2 land borders and 1 sea border, in the south, Ryxtylopia borders Dilber and Bilyad, the latter probably being Ryxtylopia’s most guarded border, due to Bilyad being an unstable nation Ryxtylopia faces a lot of refugees crossing the border.
    While north of Tirilpa (island) Ryxtylopia has a maritime border with Ageros, along the small islands in the middle of the channel.

    Administration and Internal Divisions
     
    Ryxtylopia is composed of 3* Types of Subdivision: States, Districts and Municipalities each administering a piece of land at smaller levels.
     
    Ryxtylopia has:
    10 States
    72* Districts
    454 Municipalities
    1 Administrative District.

     
    STATES
    Each state has their own legislative and judicial systems (despite this in legislative terms, most of the time, laws made at the national level are considered before state laws) as well as this, states have representation proportional to their population at the national level.
    States also elect their own governors who serve for 4 years, and after this state elections happen where the seats at the state legislature will be spread proportionally-ish depending on the % of the vote each party gets.
     
    DISTRICTS*
    Districts don’t have legislatures, rather they are formed from councils composed from people of the different municipalities of each District, which can then make petitions or suggestions to their state governments.
    Each District council will elect one of their members as their representative at the state level, since while the State legislature is composed from people who live in all the state, District councils are only composed of locals, therefore, the idea behind electing someone to represent them is to make sure their voice is heard at the state level, but this system has been proven to be flawed at best.
     
    MUNICIPALITIES
    Municipalities don’t have legislatures, they’re very similar to districts, only that it's more of at a local level, not regional, and they have more influence over their District council, than the Districts have over the state legislature.
    Also unlike districts, municipalities do elect a head, that is similar to the governor of a state but at a local level, with this governor having a say in the District council, as the elected governor, as well as advisors are part of the District council.
     
    The D.A.F
    The D.A.F isn’t a state, being the seat government at the national level it has its own special status, it's still divided into municipalities, and pretty much acts like a state, since it holds Ryxenia, the largest city and capital of Ryxtylopia makes it giving it representation at the national level a MUST.
    The only differences between the D.A.F and other states are that the D.A.F doesn’t have its own state legislature, only local legislature, but recently, calls for the D.A.F to be stripped of its special status and be made into a new state have arisen in the past decade or so.
     
    THE STATES OF RYXTYLOPIA
    As said previously, Ryxtylopia has 10 States, in this section of the factbook, we’ll review each state, along with their population, demographic makeup, economy and some miscellaneous facts about each one.

    Branches of Goverment
     
    EXECUTIVE BRANCH
    The man (or woman) responsible for leading Ryxtylopia is none other than whoever’s in charge of the office of the presidency, who must use his powers to enforce the laws of the Ryxtylopian Constitution through the country.
    The president of the Ryxtylopian Federation is elected by popular vote every 5 years, without the possibility of re-election, campaigning for the presidency of Ryxtylopia take place between January all the way to the election, which takes place between April and May, the winner would then be sworn in on the last day of May of the said year, a tradition born after the fall of the Ryxtylopian dictatorship in the 1390’s when it became tradition for the New President to be Sworn in the last day of May, May for most Ryxtylopians being a “Patriotic Month” as Ryxtylopia’s National day is May 15th, and several other national holidays are in May (such as “Flag day”; May 17th, and “Army day”; May 19th).
    Historically, the president's power in Ryxtylopia has always been either questionable or absolute, despite this in the modern day, the president has a substantial amount of power.
    The president of the Ryxtylopian Federation is the “Supreme Commander'' of the Ryxtylopian Armed Forces, and the president can also enact several powers to exert influence over the country. A lot of these measures bypass the lower house of congress, which HAS caused trouble in recent years, many feeling that the president’s power is excessive, and Ryxtylopia is entering another “Authoritarian” period in its history.
     
    LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
    The Ryxtylopian legislative system (congress) or known as the National Assembly has 2 chambers, the lower house  has 620 Seats while the upper house has 220 Seats.
    The lower house, called the Chamber of Representatives (Camirá di Repristantes.) as said previously has 620 seats, and all are elected by popular vote during national elections, with each political party getting a number of seats proportional(ish) to the percentage of votes they got in the election.
    The upper house, called the Federal Chamber (Camirá Fiederai) has 220 seats, these represent the states, with each state having seats proportional to their population, this also counts the F.A.D, and these seats are determined by state elections. 
    For the passing of laws, bills, provisions, etc. Each house has its own requirement to pass, the Chamber of Representatives only needs a simple majority (51%) to pass, while the National Assembly needs a Supermajority of 60% for proposals to pass.
    This is how normal legislative sessions work in Ryxtylopia, however during a state of emergency, or any exception to constitutional order, the president has the power to lower the amount required to pass a change to a minority in both houses. (30% in the Chamber of Representatives and 35% in the National Assembly).
     
    JUDICIAL BRANCH
    Ryxtylopia’s Judicial system is conformed by several levels with the Supreme Court at the top, and rural courts at the bottom.
    Most disputes and affairs would be handled by metropolitan or urban courts, which are right above the so-called rural courts in Ryxtylopian, rural courts being based in sparsely populated segments of the country, while urban and metropolitan courts are located in cities.
    After the urban and metropolitan courts come the district courts, which can oversee or take on cases which the courts below it cannot. If cases rise in importance most will end up at the district courts, rarely any cases are brung to the “Regional courts” the next level on this scale.
    Finally we have state courts and (The) Supreme Court of Justice, the highest court of Ryxtylopia, which is only composed of 14 magistrates, picked by a committee appointed by congress.

    The upper house, called the Federal Chamber (Camirá Fiederai) has 220 seats, these represent the states, with each state having seats proportional to their population, this also counts the F.A.D, and these seats are determined by state elections. 
    For the passing of laws, bills, provisions, etc. Each house has its own requirement to pass, the Chamber of Representatives only needs a simple majority (51%) to pass, while the National Assembly needs a Supermajority of 60% for proposals to pass.
    This is how normal legislative sessions work in Ryxtylopia, however during a state of emergency, or any exception to constitutional order, the president has the power to lower the amount required to pass a change to a minority in both houses. (30% in the Chamber of Representatives and 35% in the National Assembly).
     
    JUDICIAL BRANCH
    Ryxtylopia’s Judicial system is conformed by several levels with the Supreme Court at the top, and rural courts at the bottom.
    Most disputes and affairs would be handled by metropolitan or urban courts, which are right above the so-called rural courts in Ryxtylopian, rural courts being based in sparsely populated segments of the country, while urban and metropolitan courts are located in cities.
    After the urban and metropolitan courts come the district courts, which can oversee or take on cases which the courts below it cannot. If cases rise in importance most will end up at the district courts, rarely any cases are brung to the “Regional courts” the next level on this scale.
    Finally we have state courts and (The) Supreme Court of Justice, the highest court of Ryxtylopia, which is only composed of 14 magistrates, picked by a committee appointed by congress.

    Ryxtylopia (Officially the Federation of Ryxtylopia) is a country located on the northern-most part of the Auran continent, as well as holding some islands further north and off the coast, it has 2 land borders with Bilyad and Dilber in the South-West and South Respectivley, as well as sharing a maritime border with Ageros to the north, west of Ryxtylopia you have the Mille Mer and eventually Polaris, while to the east you find the Timeworn Sea and eventually Doll Guldur.
     

     
    Geography
    Ryxtylopia is divided into several regions, but its main geographic features are the divide between the semi arid and arid regions from the more temperate regions by the Ryxavinas mountains that go through the centre of the country, and of course, the channel between the mainland and the islands of Pinichaca and Tirilpa.
    The Western portion of the country is mostly semi-arid forests, woodlands and scrub, with the most southern points of the country being mostly semi-arid desert and shrub.
    The Eastern portion of the country is more temperate, with temperate forests and some grasslands in the south-east, this climate also applies to the two main islands north of the mainland: Pinichaca and Tirilpa respectively.
    In terms of international borders Ryxtylopia counts with 2 land borders and 1 sea border, in the south, Ryxtylopia borders Dilber and Bilyad, the latter probably being Ryxtylopia’s most guarded border, due to Bilyad being an unstable nation Ryxtylopia faces a lot of refugees crossing the border.
    While north of Tirilpa (island) Ryxtylopia has a maritime border with Ageros, along the small islands in the middle of the channel.

    Administration and Internal Divisions
     
    Ryxtylopia is composed of 3* Types of Subdivision: States, Districts and Municipalities each administering a piece of land at smaller levels.
     
    Ryxtylopia has:
    10 States
    72* Districts
    454 Municipalities
    1 Administrative District.

     
    STATES
    Each state has their own legislative and judicial systems (despite this in legislative terms, most of the time, laws made at the national level are considered before state laws) as well as this, states have representation proportional to their population at the national level.
    States also elect their own governors who serve for 4 years, and after this state elections happen where the seats at the state legislature will be spread proportionally-ish depending on the % of the vote each party gets.
     
    DISTRICTS*
    Districts don’t have legislatures, rather they are formed from councils composed from people of the different municipalities of each District, which can then make petitions or suggestions to their state governments.
    Each District council will elect one of their members as their representative at the state level, since while the State legislature is composed from people who live in all the state, District councils are only composed of locals, therefore, the idea behind electing someone to represent them is to make sure their voice is heard at the state level, but this system has been proven to be flawed at best.
     
    MUNICIPALITIES
    Municipalities don’t have legislatures, they’re very similar to districts, only that it's more of at a local level, not regional, and they have more influence over their District council, than the Districts have over the state legislature.
    Also unlike districts, municipalities do elect a head, that is similar to the governor of a state but at a local level, with this governor having a say in the District council, as the elected governor, as well as advisors are part of the District council.
     
    The D.A.F
    The D.A.F isn’t a state, being the seat government at the national level it has its own special status, it's still divided into municipalities, and pretty much acts like a state, since it holds Ryxenia, the largest city and capital of Ryxtylopia makes it giving it representation at the national level a MUST.
    The only differences between the D.A.F and other states are that the D.A.F doesn’t have its own state legislature, only local legislature, but recently, calls for the D.A.F to be stripped of its special status and be made into a new state have arisen in the past decade or so.
     
    THE STATES OF RYXTYLOPIA
    As said previously, Ryxtylopia has 10 States, in this section of the factbook, we’ll review each state, along with their population, demographic makeup, economy and some miscellaneous facts about each one.

    Branches of Goverment
     
    EXECUTIVE BRANCH
    The man (or woman) responsible for leading Ryxtylopia is none other than whoever’s in charge of the office of the presidency, who must use his powers to enforce the laws of the Ryxtylopian Constitution through the country.
    The president of the Ryxtylopian Federation is elected by popular vote every 5 years, without the possibility of re-election, campaigning for the presidency of Ryxtylopia take place between January all the way to the election, which takes place between April and May, the winner would then be sworn in on the last day of May of the said year, a tradition born after the fall of the Ryxtylopian dictatorship in the 1390’s when it became tradition for the New President to be Sworn in the last day of May, May for most Ryxtylopians being a “Patriotic Month” as Ryxtylopia’s National day is May 15th, and several other national holidays are in May (such as “Flag day”; May 17th, and “Army day”; May 19th).
    Historically, the president's power in Ryxtylopia has always been either questionable or absolute, despite this in the modern day, the president has a substantial amount of power.
    The president of the Ryxtylopian Federation is the “Supreme Commander'' of the Ryxtylopian Armed Forces, and the president can also enact several powers to exert influence over the country. A lot of these measures bypass the lower house of congress, which HAS caused trouble in recent years, many feeling that the president’s power is excessive, and Ryxtylopia is entering another “Authoritarian” period in its history.
     
    LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
    The Ryxtylopian legislative system (congress) or known as the National Assembly has 2 chambers, the lower house  has 620 Seats while the upper house has 220 Seats.
    The lower house, called the Chamber of Representatives (Camirá di Repristantes.) as said previously has 620 seats, and all are elected by popular vote during national elections, with each political party getting a number of seats proportional(ish) to the percentage of votes they got in the election.
