Brief background of nation: Former colonies of the Commonwealth who broke away in a brief revolutionary war during the turbulent times of 1837. Over the years the nation expanded and grew west, settling shaky peaces with natives via war or peace. As it grew it modernized with the rest of the world. Immigrants coming from across the seas to take part in Encessia's great industrial growth and vast development throughout the years. It became a trade power in its area and formed a functioning government with a very strong economy. The only exception being its untamed Western portion from around 1850-1910. During the Great Wars it aided the Allies through troops and lend leases. Even joining their side officially near the middle of the wars. It continued to thrive throughout the years, suffering a short civil conflict and brief lived socialist republic during the 1970's after an event dubbed 'The Red Wave' where a vast movement of socialists upset with the sluggy economy deficit and so called corruption in the presidency initiated a coup. After Encessia recovered and the democracy restored it went on to a brief war in the islands south of the mainland during the rise of a vicious dictator and occupied a group of islands known as 'The Cook Islands' that remain under its rule to this day. Currently, the government is undergoing reforms after the murder of a libertarian and great president known as Michael Armanas. Political turmoil followed, until Ron Newharon was elected into office quite hastily and managed to calm the shouts under an iron hand. However, some are greatly against his rise to power, and tensions still run high.

(strengths/weaknesses): A very well-off, developed nation with an average-funded military and functioning democracy with authoritarian elements. As seen however, a few flaws in the system have made it moderately prone to government uproot and changing ideals of a varying population. Internally however these problems have been kept under control by a very adept and highly-funded police force.

Roleplay sample: Ron Newharon, president of Encessia stood before the wooden podium, his hands gripping the sided edges and his eyes looking out to the expecting crowd all sat in the vast auditorium. Some clapping, some holding signs that supported his cause, some simply silent and waiting. A small bit of nervousness overcame him when he caught sight of the few Parliament members in the front row. Sticking out as fine dressed, older gentlemen with cold eyes. Among them he saw Conner Vancian, Parliament chairman watching him with an apathetic look. Mr. Newharon's rival, and most likely his biggest critic of whatever he would say at this speech here in Grantsville. Behind the audience the black lenses and bulky builds of the many media cameras, all zoomed in on him. Adding to the subtle pressure. As the cheering died down, Newharon would grab his sleek back microphone attached to the podium and clear his throat. The speech officially beginning with a small gesture out to the crowd...
"Grantsville. It's an honor to be here..." (Short and sweet. So the reading isn't too much.)
