Political Liberties

A: Electoral Process

A1: Is your nation's head of government elected through free and fair elections?
No, the head of state is the Empress, and heirs are selected only by incumbents (or failing that, by her Council of Advisors). The Empress wields full executive, legislative, and judicial power, and any government officer in any of these three branches gain power from the Empress' investment of said power in them.

A2: Is your nation's legislature elected through free and fair elections?
No.

A3: Are your electoral laws fair and impartial?
Nil

B: Political Pluralism and Participation

B1: Are people free to easily form political parties or organizations?
Well, there are no elections, so... no?

B2: Can the opposition increase its support or gain power electorally?
Nope.

B3: Are the people's choices not interfered by nondemocratic forces?
Very much undemocratic.

B4: Do your country's minorities possess full political liberties and the opportunity to win elections?
No, but on the plus side, they're totally equal with the majority.

C: Government Functions

C1: Do the head of government and national legislature determine policy?
In theory, the Empress determines policy, but in practice she mainly concerns herself with high national policy, and regional governors and departments make smaller less important law. She will, however, always have the final say.

C2: Are there strong and effective laws and guidelines against corruption?
Anti-corruption laws are incredibly strong and with very harsh punishments (capital punishment or life imprisonment, typically), and watchdogs report all the way up to the Empress, sometimes directly. The only person who could be corrupt, therefore, is the sovereign, but history has shown so far that every surviving and continually sane candidate of the Ritual of Succession has been quite the upstanding ruler.

C3: Is your nation's government transparent and open?
Partially; transparency and openness is required at lower levels of government for general accountability, but the upper levels can legally be shrouded in secrecy, with the Empress and her watchdogs being the primary sources of accountability. Despite this legal ability, however, government is general (including the Empress) takes a general policy of being open unless that could harm the people or nation in some way.

Civil Liberties

D: Freedom of Speech and Religion

D1: Is your nation's media free and independent?
There are significant behind-the-scenes controls on the media, stemming from things such as licensing requirements. Strong and careful laws also limit the ability for anybody to spread fake news, hate speech, defame others, and so on, and these laws apply equally to the media. That said, the media is generally allowed (outside of illegality) to report as it pleases, including criticising governmental actions, so long as it does so on the basis of fact and reason.

D2: Are people free to express their religious preferences in public and in private?
Yes, though there are no religious exceptions to general law, so one cannot rely on religion as a defence for doing things that are illegal (for instance, genital mutilation of minors).

D3: Does your nation have academic freedom and does its education system refrain from excessive indoctrination?
The government-managed education system encourages rational thought, intellectual rigour, and scepticism of all things lacking evidence, but that is generally where the indoctrination ends. So long as students apply these base concepts properly, they will not be penalised for reaching conclusions different from that of the government.

D4: Are your people free to express themselves without fear of surveillance or retribution?
Generally yes, though see the mentioned laws under D1.

E: Right to Association

E1: Is there freedom of assembly?
Residents in the country require permits for large-scale gatherings of all kinds, including political, for planning and security purposes. They will usually be confined to certain areas during the periods of their assembly so as not to disrupt the normal functioning of the country. No permits are required for small-scale gatherings.

E2: Are NGOs free from excessive government interference?
As of the current date there are no independent NGOs in Iciaros.

E3: Are trade unions free to organize?
Though trade unions exist, they are typically either government-controlled or under heavy government influence. However, unions need only apply and receive permits as with any assembly to organise, and activities such as strikes are allowed with permits and within allocated zones under E1. The government has historically given out a number of these permits, though largely as against private industry and sectors not controlled by the government.

F: Rule of Law

F1: Is your nation's judiciary independent?
Although subject to the Empress, it is otherwise independent of other authority.

F2: Do your people have the right to due process?
Yes.

F3: Are people protected from unjustifiable violence?
Yes.

F4: Are your nation's minorities treated equally under the law?
Yes.

G: Individual Liberties

G1: Do your people enjoy freedom of movement?
There are no boundaries within the country, and migration and immigration has been made an easy and even government-assisted process.

G2: Are your people able to own property and businesses without excessive interference?
Regulations exist on businesses, and these can sometimes be weighty in relation to transparency and health, but otherwise the government will not interfere. Property will generally not be interfered with until death, at which point estate tax is applied.

G3: Do people in your nation have the right to freely choose their partner and divorce their partner?
Yes. The government does not interfere with marriage and other equivalent institutions, and all types of marriages are allowed, regardless of gender, number of participants, or any other factor, unless there is no consent.

G4: Are your people free from economic exploitation?
Yes.
