A Guide To The 11 States of Polkopia
The Allied States of Polkopia is composed of eleven different states, all of whom govern themselves to a certain extent. Of course, the states only have so much say compared to the ultimate power held by the dictator of Polkopia, in this case, Semyon Polk, who holds all jurisdiction over the states and can overrule any decision made by any state at any given point in time.
Originally, the eleven states had entire jurisdiction regarding decisions which were located within said state's boundaries and the leader of Polkopia acted as a figurehead of the state, however, that was all changed following the Communist takeover of the Allied States. Since then, the states' power was abolished, though the boundaries were kept in order to maintain order within Polkopian soil. After the dissolution of the communist governments surrounding Polkopia, Malcolm Polk, the dictator at the time, restored some of the states' original powers, but have himself the final say on matters regarding the states. Some historians believe that Polk was notoriously lazy and didn't want to have to handle every matter himself, and that he'd leave it all up to the states until he felt the need to step in, but this theory was never proven true.#1: Seereli vy Ottgart, Yam Stuki, Nutkin, i Kalisto
