Siconia

Siconia or The Faschistischen Militӓrdiktatur von Siconia is a sovereign state in the mediterranean sea. Founded by Siconian tribes in 720. Siconia is the oldest continuous democracy in the world. the nearest nations are Greece and Falkland. The Siconian island flat would be twice the size of Switzerland, but because of the moutains and hills it's about the size of Rhode Island.

Establishment
Before 720 there were thousands of democratic scientifically advanced tribes calling themselves "Siconians" for some reason. Just years before 720 these tribes decided to unite into a single nation. This convention was held in a city built to be the capitol, Karjina, on 719. The Convention created the Charta der Statuten der Faschistischen Militӓrdiktatur von Siconia. Siconians believing woman are Superior to men, denied men the right to vote in Siconian elections.

After the Siconian Constitutional Convention Thousands of Siconians moved to Karjina. Then on January, 1, 720 free and democratic elections were held. Siconians opened up their counry to Slavonian and lots of Croatian immigrants.

Beginning of Commerce and Immigration
Siconia passed laws and decrees to organize the nation. Siconia opened up the country to foreign merchants, travelers, immigrants, artists, and poets. Siconia, being self governing and trading with europe grew rich. Siconia's population soared as mainly German speaking Croatian immigrants immigrated to Siconia, in fact 95% of all slavic peoples in Siconia were Croatian back then. Siconia also welcomed islamic scholars from the middle east.

Siconia was already a center of learning with beautiful architecture, descriptive literature, and science. In 1066 Siconians began to believe in DNA ushering in a new era in Siconian biology. Asian scholars were brought from the silk road so Siconia could learn about asian culture. Siconia even began to trade with the far north, including modern day Canada. Politically Siconia got involved in a growing dispute with Hungary over Croatia.

Votes for Men
Woman in most families across europe commonly intend to leave their home countries for Siconia for the right to vote. However most men refused. A lot of countries were annoyed at the country with a only woman government. Also as Siconia’s population increased so did resentment of the male immigrants. Many Siconians marched into the streets protested for votes for men. Soon the Siconian Parliament passed the Pragmatic Sanction of 1007 giving men the right to vote, men soon voted in 1010.

War of The Croatian Succession
Siconia attempted to break up a conflict between Hungary and Croatia. This conflict, The War of The Croatian Succession was going on for a while between Hungary and Croatia. Siconia wanted to spread democracy to an independent Croatia, causing Hungarian troops to destroy the Adria fleet, forcing Siconia to enter the war. Siconia and Croatia lost the war, but Siconia's part in the war pushed the Hungarians to set up a Croatian Parliament. This conflict contributed to the sickening relations between Siconia, Hungary, and Austria.

Crusades
Siconia opposed the Crusades, Siconia despised the Crusades, Siconians were tolerent of other cultures. Siconians welcomed Jews and Muslims from the middle east, fleeing the arriving europeans. Siconians openly spoke out against the war, in Siconia and other parts of Europe. Siconia banned all trade with any nations taking part in the conflict. Siconia began supplying the muslims with munitions and other aid. Without Siconian goods various european nations ended the crusades with the 9th crusade.

Economy Bust of 1100
Siconia, governing itself and trading with the world grew rich. However going north and trading with Asia from there was expensive with little profit. Because of this Siconia planned to dig a canal between modern day Egypt. Siconia sent there best workers to dig the canal. digging the canal was very difficult. Siconia Invested thousands of Snobovia into this project and many wanted it canceled. Taxes were raised very high to pay for the project, with 65% of all Siconia's revenues going to the canal other government programs couldn't work as well as they used to. Business was sluggish with high taxes lowering the amount that the government could get in taxes

Worse as Siconia grew bankrupt it couldn't afford to trade with other nations. Labour union after labour union slowed everything down, bankruptcy and other problems Siconia was on the edge of also slowed things down. Protesters marched against the continuation of the project. The entire Siconian economy collapsed fast. As things got worse, by the end of 1101 things got better as the digging was completed.

First Siconian Golden Age
After the Canal of The Middle East was built then Siconia began to trade with Asia for lower expenses. Trading with Asia meant a blending of worlds and culture as Asians came to Siconia and vice versa. Siconia, trading with the world grew rich, especially selling all those Asian and African goods in European markets and vice versa. Siconia, their capital, and Siconian merchants grew incredibly wealthy. By the 1200s Siconians had turned there nation into a peace, prosperity, learning, democracy, philosophy, science, and nature capitol of the world.

The extent of Siconian influence was realized when England, Scotland, and Ireland became constitutional monarchies. Siconia grew rich and powerful and it's people were given more money every year. Siconia's military got better as well when in 1227 the Siconian President traded Siconian goods like Kniënüchles in exchange for guns, gunpowder, and rockets revolutionizing Siconian warfare and voting President Kovačević out of office. Siconia's military, economy, workers, and philosophers were enhanced in ways no one can imagine.

Bubonic Plague
When an outbreak of the Bubonic Plague occurred in China's Hubei Province Siconia blocked travel to China and passed a decree requiring people to social distance and quarantine as much as possible. When the Bubonic Plague reached Europe Siconia quarantined every city and doctors in Siconia(which were good doctors that didn't do bloodletting) brought the number of cases in Siconia down. Siconia was free from the Black Death in a year. But you couldn't leave because the rest of Europe and the world was caught up the plague.

PASO-49
In 1349 a new strain of the bacterium Asthelosis Seclerosus called Pathogenic Asthelosis Seclerosus Of 1349 (PASO-49) appeared in Siconia. People quickly began dying. All Asthelosis Seclerosus is resistant to antibiotics, but most of them don't harm and sometimes even help people. PASO-49 can spread very quickly, possibly even quicker than the SARS COVd 2. Siconia responded to the situation and kept cases under control. There was never another outbreak of this strain until September 2020, but cases were under control.

The Rise of The Ottoman Empire
When the Ottoman Empire started taking over more and more of the Balkans, Siconia stopped them from invading Siconia. Siconia resisted the ottomans hard and helped defend other nations from Ottoman expansion. Siconia sent more troops to defend nations from the Ottoman Empire. Siconia teamed up with Austria to stop Ottoman expansion. Siconia's skilled navy lead to Austrian victory at the Siege of Malta. Many other victories after that pushed the Ottomans Back. By the time the conflict ended the Middle ages were over.

Renaissance
The Renaissance was a time of great cultural and philosophical growth. Great thinkers like Giovanni Rambaldi were alive during this time. These thinkers drew up beautiful works of art that are well descriptive. An example of a descriptive piece is the Mortem, a well described painting of life, blood, and death. Science was also advanced with beautiful drawings of the human body and a physical descriptive of the universe, proving Copernicus's theory. Philosophy was advanced as well with beliefs of secularism, anti racism, and science over religion.

The Colonies
After 1492 Siconia resumed trading with the indigenous peoples of the Americas. The Save America Movement was founded to stop colonizing the Americas. Siconia planned to bankrupt the colonies by trading with them so much that they build a lot of debt and go bankrupt. Siconia often invested in each colony's economy made manufactured goods from the resources Siconia bought and sell them to other nations, also Siconia bought a bunch of slaves freed them, offered them jobs and education and Siconia grew extremely wealthy while the colonies only got half as much wealth. In Canada and Louisiana Siconia traded Kniënüchles in exchange for Beignets.

Reformation
The Reformation didn't matter much to Siconia, being secular. However new protestant churches were being built in Siconian cities. There was lots of violence between Catholics and Protestants leaving many of the locals threatened by the increasing violence. Police were able to take care of the violence and religious reform didn't affect Siconia very much.

Emergence
A lot of people moved to Siconia or traded with her. But brutally Siconia ceased trade with England and Scotland due to a Black Death epidemic which came to Siconia where there is better medical technology. A lot of people immigrated to Siconia thus the 1699 generation had all kinds of genes and the DNA just blended together. Siconia emerged.

Austro-Siconian Dispute And War
The Austro-Siconian Dispute is the first conflict between Austria and Siconia. It started when in 1697 Austrians sailed to the Diconor region and stole several rare animals and sent them to a de jure city, de facto military base in Venèsia a country in northern Italy. The fight raged especially when the FMSS Rijeka destroyed that base in Venèsia a big blow to Austria in 1699. The war and other disputes related formed in 1706 and ended in 1709 brutally with no one victorious. Future conflicts were more peaceful

Golden Age Of Siconia
During this period Siconia began a race against time to progress the nation. Using shocking updates in science and maths, Siconia could ensure all its citizens could vote. The sciences flourished. Using magnets Siconian factories were being powered better than ever, and even better with the invention of the 1712 steam engine. Using steam and other technologies Siconian cities filled with environmentally friendly greenhouses, thus allowing there to be more preserved forests, landscapes, and parks. Philosophy was also advanced establishing Karjina as the philosophy capital of the world. An Orish man taking advantage of the advancements designed a machine that used magnets to do calculations making the Orish economy more efficient, businesses began to refine the efficiency of the economy, thus overloading the new and improved economy causing unemployment and recession, which led to the Orish economic crisis of 1716. Advancements in biology led to a public outcry that officially banned bloodletting in 1705. Siconia's race against time had succeeded and Siconia was very philosophically and scientifically advanced.

During the Early 1710s Siconia began a project call the Krajika. Krajika was the nonviolent expansion of all democracy. This started with the Siconian-Ottoman war, in which Siconia took the island of Kriti and made a Siconian client state called the State of Orland. However this project caused tensions that eventually touched off the Ogres War in 1720.

The Golden age (1700-1740) was a period of Siconia when Siconia thrived economically, philosophically, industrially, politically, and scientifically. The Krajika the frontier of Siconian radicalism was doing great things. The country thrived, cities thrived, and the ecosystem thrived. This was the renaissance but over 200 years later. The Krajika Act was passed and the politics was advanced as well. This golden age of advancing philosophy eventually led to the enlightment.

Ogres War
The Ogres War was bloody. It started in 1720 when Austrian (Croatian) ships destroyed the Adria Fleet to prevent the spread of Siconian radicalism. A lot of nations including Siconia and the Austrian crown land Croatia, plus Britain, France, Portugal, Ireland, Prussia, and the Canadian colonies supported Siconia. Against Austria, Hungary, Russia, Ottoman empire, Spain, Sweden, and the 12 American Colonies. The war was fought across the world and very bloody like ogres. It was mainly naval, and almost global. It ended with no victory in 1725 with the Treaty of Berlin.

Pax Siconia
After conflicts such as the Ogres war there was the Pax Siconia. The Pax Siconia was a period of the Siconian golden age. During this period Siconia was free to advance science and philosophy even more. During the 1720s the economy slowed because of the damage by the war, but in the 1730s the economy boomed. Siconian science advanced the economy. Food and steel production nearly tripled from 1729 to 1735. While Orland did fall under attack from the Venetian Republic, everything was dandy. But eventually war began, which badly damaged the Siconian economy.

War of the Austrian Succession
This war was a very historical war. It was the first war that Siconia fought alongside Austria and Russia, and against France and Prussia. The reason that Siconia was on Austria’s side was because they supported the Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI Pragmatic Sanction of 1713 and the Croatian Parliaments Pragmatic Sanction of 1712. Which urged a female to become monarch. Siconia fought navally and after the war went back to hating Austria. This war was a sign of progress between Siconia and Austria.

Economic crisis of the 1740s and 1750s
After the war Siconia's economy collasped. The war destroyed Siconian merchant ships damaging trade leading to economic downturn. Leading to Siconia losing money, which led to more economic downturn. Siconia soon decreased trade with Orland, leading to more economic downturn. A 15 year blizzard soon hit Siconia, leading to more economic downturn. Siconian attempts to end the crisis made the slump even worse. After the Orish revolution the economy gradually got better.

Orish Revolution
"Main Article: Orish Revolution"Orland, a Siconian client state was liberated by Siconian troops from the Ottoman Empire. When Austrian ships bombed the soon independent Orland, Siconia declared war on Austria. During the war Orland wanted independence. The Government of Orland started demanding independence and the Siconian government replaced the State of Orland with the independent, United Socialist Provinces of Orland.

Seven Years War
The Seven Years War was bloody conflict. Siconia tried to stay out of it. Opposing the British expansion supported France, but supported Britain and Prussia even more in Europe. In North America the Siconians used failure tactics that ruined the 13 Colonies. Siconia fought Austria and Russia navally creating a mediterranean theatre that was completely naval and to defend Orland from Austria.

American Revolutionary War
The American Revolution was legendary for Siconia. Siconia opposed the revolution, so when Siconia shipped goods like tea and fruit Siconia demanded a tax that was given to Britain. In 1773 when the Tea Act was passed Siconia’s chancellor swore ¨if that act is repealed I will kill the ******* colonies!¨ The Siconian Parliament placed an embargo on exports to America that same year. The American economy was ruined. Siconia fought navally.

French Revolution
Siconia supported the French Republic. So when Austria, Prussia, and Britain declared war on France, Siconia declared war on them (first war against Britain). During the war Siconia used the first of many aircraft, Siconia’s new Luftwaffe bombed fleets and armies down below in bloody air-raids. But However Siconia switched sides during the napoleonic wars doing the bloody air-raids against France rather than against Austria and Prussia. Siconia’s Luftwaffe of balloons destroyed Napoleon at Leipzig and later waterloo.

Congress of Vienna
Siconia did send delegates to the congress in Vienna, Austria. At The congress Siconian delegates proposed removing the governments of napoleon’s puppet states and setting up democratic republics in those nations like Switzerland, Germany, and Croatia. And do the exact same thing with France. Siconia’s genialer Plan von Siconia was rejected, thus a political play that led to the 1848 revolution.

The Industrial Revolution
The Industrial revolution was a prosperous era for Siconia. Lots of factories started using steam for more purposes. Railroads and Factories were built and enhanced technology and Ortrack was founded. In Stupidopolis the entire city had appliance like devices powered by one liter of steam which failed with the great pressure disaster. The revolution drew to a close when steam was replaced with electricity in the 1880s.

Romanticism And Nationalism
Romanticism was really unpopular, the smart philosophers of Siconia prefered genius and cosmopolitanism over patriotism and emotion. Siconian Philosophers believed that everyone had the freedom of national alignment or indepentism. The ideas of Romantic Nationalism quickly died out in Siconia.

Revolutions Of 1848
Siconia’s president returned to Vienna to say ¨Ich habe es dir gesagt!¨ Siconians aided the republican revolutionaries in their fights, but soon many Siconian protested the government’s involvement in violent revolts resulting in Siconians staying out of the issue, but during the Illyrian movement most people switched from using latin to using Croatian.

Siconian Involvement In The Civil War
Siconia which not only never practiced slavery but, opposed it. Thus Siconia supported the Union. When the American Civil War broke out Siconia aided the US with aircraft. After the first submarine was developed in the Confederate Navy, Siconian saboteurs designed new submarines and sabotaged them. Siconian help led to the confederates surrender at appomattox courthouse in Virginia.

Immigration
A lot of immigrants immigrated to Siconia emigrating from the Russian and Ottoman Empires, or from the oppression of the US. Siconia’s population doubled during that period of time. Many Immigrants (mainly asian) from the US came to Siconia fleeing the oppressive Chinese Exclusion Act, which outraged many Siconians causing to mock that law with the American Exclusion Act which was repealed.

Eve Of The World War
The eve of the Great War was very scary for many Siconians knowing war was imminent. Fortunately Siconian MPs from practically every county tried to keep europe from moving towards war. They began to hold negotiations after the MP’s first elections in 1900. But sadly soon after Bismarck's resignation, the pacifist government which won the 1905 elections lost in 1910. Thus europe inevitably moved toward war, which broke out in 1914.

Era of Zeppelins
After the construction of the FMSS Gluck people wanted to make luxury liners of the air that would soon be affordable for all. DELAG soon set up flights to Karjina, Regina, and Viva in 1909. All Siconian zeppelins were filled with helium and there are about 200 Airships in the Siconian marine (navy) today, most Siconian airlines fly using zeppelins, even after the dreaded calamity and destruction of the Hindenburg.

World War I
During World War I Siconia supported the slavs and the germans. Siconian politicians knew that taking a side would be impossible. Siconians struggled to stay out of the conflict, but was forced to entre the war on Germany’s side, doing so the Siconian navy fought the British in the english channel using only helium airships which destroyed the RNAS and the Royal Navy.

Aftermath of the Great War
Siconia opposed the treaty of versailles believing it would cause resentment not peace. Siconia joined the League Of Nations in 1922 when everything seemed to calm down. Siconia manufactured a new kind of zeppelin post WWI warship which were armed with thirty two, four barreled one gram cannons controlled by four personnel at the bridge. Siconians watched as all European powers built zeppelins, and the seeds for WWII (the Great Patriotic War) were planted.

Siconian American War
As the seeds for WWII sprouted, so did tension between the United States and Siconia during 1926. Both nations had helium zeppelins that carried airplanes, and both nations were annoyed at each other. Siconia was angry that the US oppressed immigrants and refused to join the league. The US was angry at the American exclusion act which was repealed in 1874. Both fought with zeppelins and airplanes from those zeppelins. In 1927 the USS Akron, Macon, and Los Angeles bombed Siconian ships in Lenung, Falkland.

Great Depression
The Great Depression hit Siconia hard. A lack of trade with European nations led to a huge decline in steel productivity. The decline in productivity led unemployment jumping to 40% in Siconia. A continuous decline of productivity led to unemployment jumping from 2% in 1929, to 37% in 1933, to 44% in 1935, to 34% in 1937, and 9% in 1939. The GNP went from 75% all the way down to 5%. The Great depression effectively ruined Siconia in the 1930s.

The Siconian government responded to the crisis with a new deal program. Siconia raised taxes on the rich. Used the money from the revenue to give to the poor, which led to Siconia's UBI being established in 1936. Siconia also offered jobs in steel, diamond, industrial equipment, and textile production. Equalizing the nation was pivotal in increasing national production which boomed in 1938. The national economy stabilized in 1937 and nearly fully recovered in 1939. Siconia fully recovered when factories went into overdrive in World War II. But the war severly damaged the economy.

Spanish Civil War
As the seeds of WWII will soon bloom civil war broke between the left wing republicans and the right wing fascists. Siconia and the USSR agreed to support the republicans. Siconia aided the republicans with zeppelin assaults against nationalists. However in the last year of the conflict the germans started negotiating with Siconia about alliance because the German Chancellor Adolf Hitler believed that Siconia was a dictatorship and a valuable ally, in order for Nazi Germany not to believe that Siconia is a enemy (which it de facto is) Siconia pulled out it’s troops from spain. Thus leading to World War II.

World War II
Finally those seeds have bloomed. Siconians took advantage of their false alliance with Germany and Italy, in 1939 Siconian zeppelins destroyed German and Italian naval and aerial targets in southeastern europe. Later in the war Siconian zeppelins targeted the mediterranean naval targets. Throughout the war Siconia's Luftmarine (Air navy) launched hellish bombing campaigns against Germany, and via zeppelins the discovery of Nazi concentration camps and the Holocaust led to even more hellish attacks. In 1945 Siconia’s Army, Navy, and Luftwaffe launched a full scale invasion into Germany. By the time the Siconians reached Berlin, most of the fuel in the Nation was exhausted. Fortunately when the Soviets took Berlin, some planes flew to give oil to the Siconian airships.

Aftermath of the Great Patriotic War
Before the war ended all power plants suddenly went out, which led to country wide power outages

Siconia supported AVNOJ and other anti fascist groups. After the embarrassment of the Nationalsozialist party (which changed its name to the Siconian Socialist Party), the Universal- Party took power in Parliament and supported the communist leaders in Yugoslavia, like Josip Broz Tito. Siconia tried to set up socialist democracies in eastern europe to stop tension between the United States, the Soviet Union, and the nations completely destroyed by World War II that want to rebuild. Siconia’s plan didn’t work and tensions between the US and USSR were stronger than ever. Siconia became the second state to join the United Nations Organization.

Space Race
During the space race Siconians founded SCASA Siconian Cosmic Astronomical Space Administration. SCASA sent 7 missions to the moon in the 60s and 25 missions to and beyond the moon in the 70s. The FMSS Kosmos was built in 1971 to fly to Mars in a year, however it was forced to come down after being damaged by a nuclear explosion on April 15, back in space today.

STOP
Siconia supported the Tito-Stalin split and the Universal- president Vladimir Pupin planned an end to war with a compromise. The leaders of Canada, India, Siconia, and Yugoslavia met in Zagreb, Yugoslavia in 1961 and signed the STOP (Socialist Treaty Organization Pact) its goal to end the standoff by replacing capitalism and communism with socialism. By 1970 STOP was rudderless and India, Siconia, and Yugoslavia joined the Non Aligned Movement, and Canada joined NATO.

European Unity
Siconia joined the European Union in 1966 as a belief to spread and keep democracy in europe even in countries like Yugoslavia, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, and Hungary. Siconia joined the EU in favor of democracy over communism, Siconia also joined the EEA but not schengen because “islands are different.” Despite being in the European Union, Siconia is still a fiercely independent nation with a strong national pride and national modesty.

Tensions with the US
Tension with the US got high after several coups staged by the CIA. Siconia put diplomatic pressure on the US to replace Anti-Communists coups with democratic coups. At the United Nations, the Siconian representative on the General Assembly accused the US of "suppressing the will of the people when the will is leftist." Relations to a big hit in 1973 when American tanks appeared on the streets of Karjina, Siconian troops put a stop to the coup and it was clear the United States did this. In the early 70s, Siconia proclaimed extreme diplomatic pressure on the US, which ended after Nixon's resignation.

Support of Gorbachev
Siconians actively showed their support for Soviet premier Mikhail Gorbachev. They encouraged the democratization of eastern Europe. Siconians hailed Gorbachev as a hero. but noted that he could be more faster in his reformation. Siconians defended Gorbachev but, the Soviet Union dissolved, much to the dismay of the Siconian people. In 1992 the Siconian government voiced their support for the Gorbachev foundation.

Collapse Of Nuclear Proliferation
The end of nuclear weapons brought great relief to the people of Siconia but also sadness because without nuclear weapons, demokratski would never be the same again. Siconians lead marches and other demonstrations against giving up nuclear weapons, some put magnets under and inside the FMSS Demokratska so the Siconian president couldn’t sign the NPT. Siconians negotiated that Siconia could keep her nuclear weapons but continue to not use them for military purposes.

Yugoslav Wars
In the bloodiest wars since World War II, Siconia took part in the issue. Supporting democracy over the collapsing communism, Siconia sided with Slovenia and Croatia in their early fights against a former ally Yugoslavia. However it was a complete no brainer, when the serbians carried out their ethnic cleansing of the Bosniak Muslims. During the ethnic cleansing Siconian troops rescued many suffering from the ethnic cleansing and sent them to refugee camps in Siconia, where they could live and work in Siconia.

2009 Swine Flu Pandemic
In February, 2, 2009, the first outbreak of spanish flu in Siconia occurred. Several cases followed and the entire orland region was quarantined. The number of cases in Siconia was 2 million, the death toll was 900 people. The pandemic was nothing compared to the 2019-20 COVID-19 pandemic.

North Korean Siconian Dispute
In 2015 Siconians (that loathe North Korea twice as much as Austria and America combined) sent zeppelins to drop leaflets describing the outside world, in North Korea. North Korean  State Affairs Commission Chairman Kim Jong Un responded to the could be threat, by launching a nuclear missile into a Siconian Astatine mine. Siconians started negotiating the dispute. The completely opposite countries both in name and in government, negotiated and argued for days. Siconia and North Korea came to a compromise when Siconian delegates explained that they described the US as a horrible place. They all agreed to respect each other, this made the dispute peaceful, not violent.

Resentment Of Trump
When discovering that the US president, Donald J. Trump didn’t earn the plurality or the majority of the American electorate. Many politicians in government started to get concerned about how undemocratic the US is becoming over the last few elections. Not only that but President Trump is Siconianaphobic. Relations between the two nations broke down as President Novak and President Trump couldn’t broker a single deal. Siconians got concerned about the power of the US presidency. Anti-Trump protests led to high levels of civil unrest.

2020 Election
Siconia holds elections every five years on January, 1. With tensions as high as they were with an Impeachment Inquiry in the US, a new outbreak of a new coronavirus in Wuhan, China, Siconia’s economy wasn’t doing good, unemployment up to 12%, Productivity exports down to 47%, and imports down to 35%. The candidates were Liberal candidate Sinora Gluck, Conservative candidate Joseph Span, and Liberal Candidate Josip Jelacic. The Siconian attitude was expressed at the polls when Sinora Gluck won the 2020 election, inheriting huge national problems.

COVID-19
COVID-19 came to Siconia on April, 1, 2020. When that happened was hospitals filling up and people going into panic, others saying that the constitution gave them the right to die. To calm everyone down the Siconian Parliament passed the Pandemic Safety Act of 2020, quarantining jobs that can be done from home and requiring everyone to wear a mask while in public. This law will do the same thing during any pandemic. On June, 3, Siconia reported it’s first day with no new cases.

Black Lives Matter Protests
After the second degree murder of George Floyd millions of Siconians took to the streets, as did many others around the world to protest his death. And many went back to post American revolution Anti-American peaceful protests, most were peaceful. Many protest signs read “black lives matter” “BLM” “I can’t breathe” and “silence = violence”. Some of the largest, most nonviolent protests took place in Siconia.

Siconian Lives Matter
Siconians had always bean abused in the US but now that people were protesting structural racism against African Americans, people began protesting racism against Siconian Americans. After the suspicious death of two Siconian American Black Lives Matter protesters Siconian Americans began to protest. The residents of a Siconian American neighborhood in New York held a candlelight vigil in honour of the two men. US President Donald Trump responded by getting the military out to deal with the peaceful protest. Several protests popped up across the US and in Europe and SLM seek sympathy from democratic president Joe Biden.

Politics and Government
Despite Siconia’s name, Siconia is a Semi Direct Democracy. Every five years since 720 the people elect their president, MPs, and Supreme Dictator for life. Using a complex system of petitions the people of a constituency can dictate what their MP does in parliament. The Senate is the upper house of Parliament, The house of Politicians the lower house. Parliament picks cabinet positions, passes laws and taxes, picks the Chancellor, the head of Parliament. The President is elected for a five year term by the people. The President signs or vetoes laws. The Supreme Dictator is the head of the courts that interpret the law, elected by the people.

Elections
Siconia uses the two voting systems. Voting is mandatory. For Presidential elections, there can be up to five candidates, the many people that run get picked off at certain debates. That continues until there is five candidates left. Then people vote at the general election regardless of the party. If the number of votes candidates get is under 50.1% then they vote again and cut the candidate with the least votes, and continue until one candidate gets the majority. This works presidential elections and supreme dictator for life elections. For Parliamentary elections, the people of that constituency rank their favourite candidates. The biggest loser gets knocked of along with those who reached 11.1111111111%. This continues until all nine candidates are found. That is the election system for Parliament The 9 MPs for a city or county are mainly elected to represent the major interests of the Siconian people.

Parliament
"Main Article: Siconian Pariament"The Siconian Parliament is the governing body of Siconia. The Siconian Parliament is a bicameral legislature but both chambers meet in one chamber and debate the issues together. The senate is the upper house of parliament. Nine senators are elected for each city which there are about 1,001 of, the lower house is the House of Politicians with 909 politicians 9 per county. The senate nominates the cabinet and jury. All of Parliament chooses the Chancellor, passes laws and taxes, declare’s war, and if 50% MPs hate the president, then call a vote of no confidence in the President or Chancellor. The voting is majority rule voice vote. All discussion is verbal. MPs are bound to the wishes and requests of the people.

Chancellor
"Main Article: Chancellor"The Chancellor is the head of the Government and the highest position in the government. The Chancellor presides over Parliament on the President’s behalf. The Chancellor describes the President’s ideals on his behalf, then peppering the President with questions and jeers from MPs. The Chancellor is chosen by the majority political party or party coalition in Parliament. The Chancellor also go bangs the gavel on the podium in Parliament.

Committee
The Committee simply names and writes bills for seconded motions.

Cabinet
The Siconian Cabinet, like most cabinets is appointed by the majority political party or coalition in Parliament. The Cabinet members are in charge of departments important to Siconian life. Non-secretary members run departments that aren’t that important, like the First Tiger, the Commander in Chief. The most well known secretaries are state, education, health, bureaucracy, commerce, and land management. The Cabinet is presided over by the Vice-President, the top adviser is the President of Siconia.

President

Courts
The Siconian Court system is known for looking at all the facts during a time of a trial. There must be interest in the public, the accuser, the jury, the convicted, and the constitution. Jury members are skilled lawyers nominated by the Chancellor and the Senate. Judges are nominated by the Supreme Dictator for life and selected by the Senate. The Supreme Dictator for life is the head of the Courts and the Grand Jury. The courts decide whether or not laws are constitutional or not and the Konstitutionell Court is the highest court in Siconia. The Siconian Constitution says “no one should be deprived of life without due process of law.”

How a Bill Becomes a Law
Anyone can propose a motion. If someone proposes it during a session of both houses of Parliament (which are 80% of all parliamentary sessions), it will be voted on right then and there. If a motion comes via petition, it will have to be addressed or voted on in the next joint session of Parliament. If the motion comes to Parliament via letter by a disgruntled citizen it will be addressed in a session of Parliament in a parliamentary session, when a motion is addressed is repeatedly inconsistent.

When a motion is addressed it is on the table to be discussed before a national audience in Parliament. MPs will discuss and continuously debate about the motion. After the discussion is over the Chancellor will bang his gavel and call for order, then Parliament will vote a Ja or Nein voice vote. After the session the Chancellor's committee will turn this motion into a bill and send it to the president. Before being sent to the President the bill is read before the nation. People will then vote on this bill, but unlike national elections voting in this referendum is optional not mandatory.

The bill then gets sent to the president, it will either be vetoed or signed. If vetoed it will be sent back to Parliament and they will either pass the bill again or reform some of the bill. If passed it will become a law and enforced by the government, after the Konstitutionell Court also approves the law.
