There's no reason a standing army can't be drafted, in fact the two have been quite linked. I think what you mean is professional vs drafted.

Military service is compulsory under the Youth Corps Programme for all Samozniy children aged 16 until the age of 19. Upon leaving the Youth Corps, they are required to enlist career, or sign up as a reservist.
Our militaristic stance and interventionist policy is to combat a regional terror group, and to defend our other interests.
Immigration is frowned upon since they tend to infringe on our culture. And areas with high densities of immigrants are consistently proven to have increased levels of crime. Only skilled workers (arms manufacturers, designers, architects, nuclear technicians, aerospace engineers etc) are typically allowed in.

Primarily democratic, but its a primarily representative form of government(which the option of plebiscites which always become non-amendable by congress), and strictly bound by a constitution, some parts of which are non-amendable.

We take bits from what would be considered the left and the right.

We are (primarily) individualists to the core.

Government intervention is bad, m'kay?

The draft is illegal.

We only take part in defensive wars.

See above, however we do enjoy foreign trade and allow some small amount of immigration.
