What have you learnt after reading the AN’s factbooks? III

[Paris Saint-Germain]

They are an island in the North Atlantic that's diverse.

[Azur Deutschland]

Nasser Al-Khelaifi is the leader and has brought many trophies and star players.

Its a What if Germany was composed of magical girls and magitech and won WW2

[Lilguay]

That they are a Mesoamerican nation with stunning biodiversity and have so far been reliant on agriculture for their economy but seem to be moving into more advanced bio-engineering fields.

[Norse Inuit Union]

They are very technologically advanced and they value improving people's lives a lot which I like and admire. The majority of their population are multiracial and believe in the Amorprana religion, which I would be interested in learning more about. They are also very well educated.

[Kingdom of Lechia]

They have a political party called NPPP, which is very socially conservative, but is also socialist, which is based.

[New Galactic States]

Lechia doesn’t have YouTube, Netflix, Or McDonalds

Which is very disappointing

[The Controlist Ferwerter Union]

They are a galactic federation which has developed very fast in its early years. Everything goes well until a mysterious signal pops up and aliens who are literally called Warmongers show up, spark a galactic war and obliterate earth. Eventually the Warmongers are defeated and a new Earth is constructed and then a species who are literally called the Killmongers show up to start everything over again. At least the Federation is now living in a golden age (until Massacremongers show up perhaps?). They also have an interesting universal language.

OMG Massacremongers why have I not thought of that

[Lilguay]

Unsurprisingly (given their name), their Factbooks suggest that they are a totalitarian state that is play acting at being a democracy and is rather delusional, with a harsh prison system.

[Meadowfields]

Only 6 minutes of airtime may be devoted to taxed advertising per hour in Lilguay, due to advertisements being seen as unethical.

[Hintuwan]

Meadowfield practices their own unique and institutionalized version of ancestor-worship. Not too dissimilar to Hintuwan's concept of "Anito".

[The Aquaria]

Nepotism, police brutality and religion conflicts, are the major problems of Hintuwan. It can be a serious problem on their development since this alerts the investors.

[Lilguay]

I learned plenty, but the thing I learnt about that stood out to me (at least this time reading through their Factbooks), is that their higher education system is a great place to learn more (with it being free for citizens and only about $850 for non-citizens).

[Hintuwan]

Lilguay has a predilection for bioethics in medical technology.

[The Saucer Pilots]

Hintuwan is a land of considerable ecological beauty and is considered megadiverse as a result of the many different types of forest biomes; unfortunately, however, a century of deforestation and never-ending illegal logging activities have taken a toll on wildlife preservation in general.

[Lilguay]

They are a society made up of humans from the future of an alternate reality.

[Hintuwan]

Lilguay implements a progressive income tax system and prohibits private corporations from operating in the country except for in 3 port cities.

[Ivolshok]

Hintuwan's legislature is proportioned mostly by sub-national division, with all but one of the governates having the same representation regardless of size. That's... not how i'd do it. *sad proportional representation face*

[Insulamia]

Ivolshok is a communistic nation without private enterprise. Its economy doesn't grow fast but its growth quite stable. It has a highly-funded healthcare system (which is starting to have falter) but does not prioritise education.

[Continental Free States]

The bulk of Insulamia's population really lives in four particularly populated cities. The capital of each of Insulamia's four provinces make up the majority of each of their populations (Éteaux makes up 56.4% of Aubert, Franclinton-on-Sea 68% of Henria, Newmere City 93.75% of Newmere and Emmington-upon-Flear 58.2% of Septentria). These four cities put together make up 62.5% of Insulamia's total population.

[Hintuwan]

In their universe, the Ba'athist revolution utterly fails in Syria. Judea and Persia occupy the country under a UN mandate. I can't imagine a worse hell than being occupied by the same country that you've been vowing to destroy for years. The shame, the humiliation, the pain...

[Makko Oko]

I learned that apparently a 6 month old baby can run for office according to the Constitution...

The 1986 constitution of the Commonwealth of Hintuwan mandates that elections should be held for government officials at the national, provincial, and local levels. The constitution guarantees that any citizen of the Commonwealth may file candidacy for such positions if they so choose - there is no age limit, nor restrictions based on race or sexual orientation. All members of the national legislature, the Kapulungang Bayan (lit. "Assembly of the Nation"), are directly elected by the people of each province.

Additionally, I learned that the 1955 Restoration of Titles Act violates royal family policy as Hintuwan's head of state, known as the Lakan (or Dayang if female), is chosen from the Luntian Royal Family and serves as monarch for life. If they're chosen, then how is it hereditary? The act said it was the eldest, but this says you may choose, how odd.

Are you referring to the pseudo-democratic "Kepulungan" system? That was a temporary thing that was disbanded during the colonial era lmao.

The confiscation of the Kesampuhan's feudal possessions and the dismantlement of the Kepulungan system in 1772 led to the royal clans' gradual spiral into obscurity and the Hintuwani archipelago became a commercial holding of the Pordhesian Western Isles Company for 134 years.

For all intents and purposes Hintuwan is a hereditary constitutional monarchy. Yes, sometimes the Lakan may choose one of his children other than the eldest to become heir apparent but this is rare. And in any case that still makes it hereditary because it's still within the family.

[Lilguay]

That Makko Oko is a nightmarish authoritarian and theocratic (under their version of Satanism) state.
