Is the following thing canon in BN? [II]

The place to relax, unwind, share a joke, and generally goof off.

No, as the Union covers the area occupied by Yugoslavia IRL, and is organised very differently, so no direct equivalent exists.

BN has a militarised border with a hostile polity.

Yes, the Sea League is currently embroiled in a war against the Roman Republic over control of sicilly , with the Sea League currently having the upper hand on both sea and on land with the aid of Sparta.

BN is currently at peace with all it's neighbors.

The Athenian Sea League is set in a low fantasy world where all the legends and myths from greek mythology are true. And in it's current form the Sea Leauge is a collection of city-states, oligarchies and petty kingdoms led by a triumvirate of it's three most prominent member states: mighty Athens led and represented by it's Archon Eponymos Pericles, "Father of democracy", brave Macedon led by Perdiccas III "the Wise" and represented by a court official by the name Pausanias and fearless Crete which in itself is a union of Cretes two most powerful nations, Pefki and Messara which each having to share one representative, said representative being Podarkes.

In a world where the Spartacists won in 1919 and Trotsky achieved his world revolution, Russia's minority dumping ground in the Far East is undergoing an internal revolution. Led by a sly artist-premier and his technocratic posse, surrounded by a salacious secretive Civil Servants' society, factionalist scheming, and (literal) backstabbing.

I believe this refers to the act of "online torrenting", that being uploading or downloading files through a torrent network instead of through a central server. In that case, not very common, as computers are quite few and far between in Shantung, not to mention that an external internet connection is all but non-existent.

BN is currently, or has recently recovered from, fighting a civil war?

Some might argue the period between 1979 and 1988 was a civil war. In that case, true. Otherwise, Iran has never been in a domestic conflict that we classify as a Civil War.

The BN has changed its government form through violent, non-reformist means more than twice in the last 40 years.

Not exactly no. A failed coup-de-etat was attempted, but that was quickly shut down peacefully. When Laura came into power however Parliament was cleaned out, yet the system remained even if the gov't itself became more authoritarian. Hence, the "not exactly" part.

BN has a party or sect within their gov't that is based in religion or has religious roots, embracing theocracy over any other method of governance.

Yes. Individuals with a yearly income more than 1,650,000 Rubles (~129,920 EUR) are not eligible for National Healthcare Agency compensation, and must instead pay for private health insurance.

BN's legislative assembly has a majority of what would be considered leftists for the country.

Arguably yes. The Progressives are "left" compared to the extremely racist/conservative Democrats and the relatively liberal but extremely capitalist Republicans, and they control 46+3 out of the 96 seats of the Senate (46 Progressives, 3 independents who caucus with the Progressives) and 216 out of the 432 seats of House (exactly 50%).

The BN's not a federal state but its administrative districts have their own legislative bodies.

There is a quasi cult of personality for a historical figure in the BN, but not inside its own territories (think Bismarck for Germany)
