Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?
The minorities are in power, and only they are allowed to vote. :p
Regarding women, only white women are allowed to vote.
Regarding freedom from slavery, it is the majority black population who suffer from conditions that are not much different from slavery. Officially, slavery has been abolished.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?
Oh! Hell no! The majorities are, on the contrary, viewed as objects to be owned by the minorities.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?
For men it is either farming or politics. For women, it is either being housewives or other less paying jobs like teachers, doctors, etc. It is rare for women to hold political office.
Only people of the white minority are allowed to hold political offices. Those who don't are usually filthy rich farmers, farming hundreds of acres of farmlands in the countryside.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?
For minorities it is ruling over the majority black and coloured population.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?
Of course they can! Actually, the CEOs of all the major companies are people from the white minority.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?
Yes. The rights of women have always been traditionally and culturally very high, but minorities of the country such as Imazighen and descendants of Saqaliba had somewhat restricted rights until the 1871, when the Qanun al-Taharur al-Thaqafi (Cultural Emancipation Act) was passed by Sultan Ali II.
Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?
No. Women were never objectified and seen as things to be owned in the recorded history of Al-Andalus, but some minorities, most prevalently the previously mentioned Imazighen and Saqaliba, were owned as slaves before 1802, when the Slavery Abolition Act was passed.
What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?
The same as everyone else. Women were always free to work similar jobs to men, and minorities began to enter this field at the dawn of the 1900s.
What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?
No difference than anyone else. Racism and stereotyping is rare in the recorded history of Al-Andalus.
Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?
Yes. The current prime minister, Rafeeqa el-Hamdan, is a woman with Amazigh ancestry.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery? No to all of those.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men? Women are considered the property of their husbands or fathers.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities? Native women tend to be homemakers, though some work as servants. Non-Angyaran males tend to take menial labor jobs.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior? Angyaran women are to be quiet and submissive, and are not expected to speak unless spoken to. Minorities are often segregated into their communities and are not to interact with Angyarans nor government or military officials unless approached by them.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses? Women are barred from any government positions, as are minorities. However, racial minorities are permitted to run their own private businesses within their own ethnic enclaves.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery? Sure. Women are granted the same rights (and duties) as men. These include the right to have a fair trial and the duty of not swearing allegiances to subversive movements (i.e. communist parties, ethnic separatist Paramilitaries, feminist organizations). Minorities are granted the same treatment as the majority despite the fact that there is no absolute majority in Brazi. Discrimination still is part of daily life, especially towards religious minorities.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men? No, although those who violate the law can be seen as objects to be owned by the state.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities? A day just like any other. Got sexually assaulted at work? Your co-worker will be violated and be forced to pay reparations for you. Someone discriminates against you at work based on your skin color? Too bad, now he will spend ten years of his life on a re-education camp.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior? There still are some biased expectations of women and certain ethnicities, such as women being delicate and Brazilians of the hinterland being illiterate or dumb, but overall, these are stereotypes: the Modernist Revolution radically altered the social landscape of Brazil. Nowadays women are as strong as men while the hinterlanders are as intelligent and cultured as the urban dwellers.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses? Yes. Since the Modernist Revolution in the 1930s, women have risen to positions of power in both private companies and state institutions. For ethnic minorities, well, they are very successful: our last protector-president was Afro-Brazilian, and our current president is Japanese.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?
Of course. Equality and liberty have been enshrined into the Constitution since our nations independence from colonial rule, along with anti-discrimination amendments and laws to ensure fairness. All Zambican citizens can vote, hold personal possessions, and live their lives in freedom from the following categories of discrimination & harassment: race, colour, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity & expression, religion, personal beliefs, age, marital/family status, disability, place or ethnicity of origin, association or perception thereof. Slavery is the most abhorrent human rights violation, and our nation's proactive anti-slavery (human trafficking) laws enforced via specialized task forces cultivate fierce hostility towards those engaging in the trade of human beings.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?
No. Thanks for decades of progressive & socialist-oriented education, combined with public campaigns & strong civic institutions, women & gender non-conforming individuals are regarded as equals by their male peers. Such backward & reactionary ways of thinking are looked down upon in all but the most conservative/tradition-focused sections of our society.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?
Days and jobs are as typical to those of any man in Zambican society. They go to work & contribute to the best of their abilities like anyone else, enjoy personal hobbies and pursuits like anyone else, and participate in all aspects of public & private life of their choosing. Our country is home to dozens of ethnic groups (both indigenous Africans, descendants of white Portuguese, or recent immigrants & refugees) unified by common national identity, socialist values, common lingua franca (Portuguese & English), & mutual respect. Barriers are being overcome daily to bury the darkness of our past.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behaviour?
In our nation, the norm is quite similar to that of any other citizen of our country. Our socialist values ensures that everyone treats all other people in a spirit of camaraderie.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?
All government & civil offices are open to any citizen of Zambique regardless of such factors as gender or ethnicity. While our socialist economy has rendered private business obsolete, citizens & newcomers can participate freely in common work and socialist enterprise in our country. All citizens can as a right and duty serve in our nation's security forces, whether that be the People's Defence Forces, People's Police, Civil Guard, People's Militia, or in alternative civilian service should they refuse military service on the grounds of freedom of thought, religion, or conscience.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?

- Women ang minorities are given rights with the exception of voting, because the country is a Kingdom and ruled by a King. Needless to say, most people are given certain rights and the freedom of speech that does not violate any laws or code of conduct here in our nation.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?

- No, women are viewed as the "fairer" gender and should be respected and treated as any others are. Minorities are the same, and unless violated any laws or crossed the Kingdom's borders illegally, should be expected to be treated fairly.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?

- Jobs that males have historically been taken on. Women can take similar jobs to men and same goes for minorities. Though, jobs historically for women only are still common and minorities commonly take the lowest forms of jobs/businesses.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?

- Quite the same as everybody else.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?

- Yes, they can. But here in Terentino we value the most fit for signing up for taking government offices.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?

Women and minories have the same right as the majority members but with a delay in time. As example Universal masculine Sufrage 1919 universal suffrage for everybody in 1946. Compulsory male schoolarship 1873 women in 1887. Civilian matrimony in 1933, LGBT matrimony in 2012. Full citizenship for the Muslim minority in 1946.
Historically there was a policy of assimilation of the National minorities. Berber and Arabic were not studied in school since the 70s. Normally there is animosity between Berber and Arab comunities and clashes among them are common.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?

In general spite of being a relatively conservative country.
the catarran majority. It has been The minorities those that opposed more The advances. The rural Muslim minority didn't tolerate well the advances on women and homosexuals rights equality and secularization as imposed by the Catarran national and religious majority.
Muslims were a majority until 1609 when Spanish King Philip the III ordered Muslim expulsion. Jews were exposed in 1492. But they returned after the expulsion of the Spanish inquisition. The oldest active synagogue dates from 1730.

Antisemitism like holocaust denial prosecuted as felony. As, discrimation for race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?

As We are a relatively conservative country women still do a higher part of housekeeping and raising children. Many women do have part time jobs. Since the 1950s it has been an important advance in feminism and the incorporation of women to the mayoral market. So, an increased tendency to share the house tasks and children care. Also a reduction in the wage gap.
Muslims and migrants normally earn much less as because of their lower educative level. More criminality and unemployment. Also our security forces are vigilant looking for Islamist radicals and local narcos.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?

In the cities there is no almost no difference in the rural areas the living differences are higher. In spite of homophobia being banned and cultural forms derogatory for women baned most Muslim homosexuals and many young muslim still go to cities and Catholic predominant areas to be more free. Catholics are 80% Muslims 15%.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses? Yes, though quotas and affirmative action does not exist. 40% of MPs are women. Also a 25% of CEOs or 15% of the security forces. Those numbers will likely raise in the future.

Absolutely not, under law; gender or ethnicity holds no difference. It is also part of our Republic's culture that men, women, and minorities are the same under the party's banner.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?

Both women and minorities enjoy the same freedoms as all citizens. Women and minorities both can and do hold high office official positions within the party, military service etc; whichever occupation. There is no discrimination in the Peoples Republic. Any person caught or reported in, or in promotion their of; discrimination, inequality, or prejudice. Can and will be charged, charges range from large fines, imprisonment and in rare cases voting rights revoked.

79% of women in Alveriea are employed; with no difference in wage's between men or women. Women and minorities are encouraged to work if able. The republic also encourages charity work, which women are largely more involved in then men.

Both women and minorities do already hold high and lower government positions within the party. There is no (or very little) private ownership. Inputs and outputs are determined by the State. The Peoples Republic does this to ensure a stable socialist's state.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?
Legally, yes. Some elements of society are resistant to such change, such as the Church and the aristocracy, in particular, even some of the peasants. Even so, we now have a female President and several cabinet members, Cortes (members), diplomats, and judges are women. It is still harder for women to advance up the ranks of the Civil Guard (national police) and the armed forces, due to the strong culture of machismo in those institutions.

As for other minorities, there are few of these, but they tend to face uneven prospects. Yet they all have the legal right to live as they please, as much as anyone does.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?
Yes and no. They have autonomy. But it's also true that there is a strong culture of machismo, that a significant number of women still feel social pressure to limit their ambitions outside of the home, and that certain professions, such as entertainment and hospitality are particularly prone to harassment, abuse, or worse.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?
For women, it's one of domestic work and/or career work, but also a relaxing siesta in the middle of the day. For male minorities, it's mostly hard manual or menial labor, broken by lunch and the traditional siesta (nap). For female minorities, it's a lot of menial labor unless rich or at least middle class, plenty of housework, and a siesta.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?
For women, the focus remains on motherhood, marriage, etc. for most of them. For minorities, it's hard work to advance past any cultural prejudices which might hold them back. Public awareness campaigns, however, particularly by the leftist government, often work at chipping away at these prejudices and the once rigid social enforcement of gender norms.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?

Yes and yes. Plenty of Jews and Moors, excel at certain fields of industry, such as engineering, medicine, and hospitality. Both are permitted to seek public office in spite of lingering anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim bigotry in some quarters. Same with the small number of Protestants in the predominantly Catholic nation. As for women, see above. The rise of President Carlita Ruiz, in particular, has been rather inspiring for young women and girls who harbor hopes and ambitions of advancement.

There need to be more choices than "I'm a Republican out to utterly ruin the working class" and "I'm a Democrat, also out to ruin the working class, but in rainbow font." - me
The Lincoln War Department used to prosecute war profiteers. Now they make public policy through their elected lackeys in Congress and the White House.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?
Yes, what gender or race one is does not matter in the eyes of Lotaijuunnnian law.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?
Absolutely not.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?
It varies, minorities are unfortunately more likely to work low paying jobs, and women, especially when they have children, are much more likely to work a part time job or even stop working, even with maternity leave.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?
Females are, as in most of the world, expected to be soft, emotional, and willing to have children, but the norms also state that more peaceful jobs and passtimes like basket weaving and sewing are more "appropriate" for females. Minorities, on the other hand, are supposedly treated as fellow human beings, but many people slightly, sub-consciously, discriminate. Though almost nothing is stopping them from breaking these norms, breaking them will definitely get some strange or surprised looks.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?
Yes, though minorities can't be leader, and for females that want to be leader, that requires a lot of luck because of absolute monarchy, male primogeniture, and the fact that the title of the leader is Prince. Lotaijuunn has been progressive with women and minority rights, but the ancient traditions and laws surrounding having a prince rule the nation continue existing and being part of Lotaijuunnian culture.

Do women and minorities have rights such as voting, ownership or self determination, freedom from slavery?

Yes, women and men have the same rights, religious minorities and sexual minorities are protected by law. Slavery was abolished long ago.
The problem is with National minorities. We were born in a vicious inpedendence war, that was also an ethnic conflict. Theoricaly there is right of selfdetermination but We rebuilt the regional map to "rationalise" also to difficult it. Education in bilingual at regional level. Minorities that majoritarily supported independence are better treated than those that took part in the ethnic cleansings.

Are women and minorities viewed as objects or things to be owned by men?

No. But minorities that opposed independence are still viewed with distrust.

What is a typical day or job for women or minorities?
Women do almost everything as men. Maybe more housework or children care, but men mainly young also help more at home.
Minorities an recent migrants tend to do most menial and bad paid jobs. As most well paid jobs require a good Batean level.

What is the cultural norm for women's or minorities behavior?

We're quite open mostly in the economically more dynamic Batean majority areas. Interior areas minority inhabited are more conservative.

Can women or minorities hold any government office or own private businesses?

Well for government jobs a good Batean is required being minority member is merit to be destined to a minority area. Government jobs are also reserved for veterans and former military members (the 75% of military volunteers is ethnic Batean (25% of overrepresentation)) in general Bateans are overrepresented too in Goverment jobs.
Women and minorities can take part in politics and form parties to defend their rights.
Minority members can use their languages in public media, Parliament or to communicate with Government. They could get a translator in case the civil servant doesn't understand them well.
For business Bateans are overrepresented to because are known to be more empreneteurs.
