Articles of Confederation
« Reply #1 on: June 04, 2007, 09:46:40 PM »
In the year 1953 13 small Nations United by the declarations of the Article of Confederations to secure their borders against those who would move against them. By this Documentation a Federation of these thirteen united States was formed giving rise to the United Federation of States.

While now united in name these thirteen states are still very independent. The General Assembly is the only Federal Government that is allowed by the Articles of Confederation, it being where states debate and vote on how the small amount of funds that each state gives shall be allotted and to decide on matters that effect every member of of the Federation.

The seats in the General Assembly is allotted by a census that takes place every 10 years (the first took place in 1955, every 10 after that date) where each States gets seats equal to the percentage of the general population that they have times 4. This leads to the General Assembly having 400 seats that can change in amount every 10 years.

The Articles of Confederation do give allowance for the Creation of a Federal Police force and Military force as well as some other organizations but all of these are much less funded and powerful then their State run Counter parts.

Each of the 13 States has its own military branch, Legal Codes and laws. The Only unification are a small list of laws, currency and passport. Though the passports do declare what state they are a citizen of.

International Politics
« Reply #2 on: June 04, 2007, 09:53:10 PM »
In the Field of International Politics the United Federation of States has a very strong history and policy of Neutrality. Do to the wording of the Articles of Confederation they are not allowed to join any Alliance or International Political Organization with out the heads of each of the 13 states and the Speaker of the Assembly signing it with Approval by the general Populace.

This has made it so that the UFS stays out of any form of Alliance forming or other forms of International Politics that fall along that line. They have a military but only use it for the general good of its nation and will never use it against another nation unless directly threatened by a nation and will never deploy that military at the request of another nation. They instead feel that they should remain uninvolved in the wars and dealings of other nations and just stay as a neutral third party in all situations.

This does not mean that it avoids making contact and relations with other nations. They are happy to make and grant Embassies and sign documentations of Diplomatic Immunity. this is how ever the closest they are comfortable getting with any one nation over another.

Culture

The Entire nation falls under the classification of Sub Tropical and this has many effects on the nation. As it never gets cold their is a very active athletic life in the nation and a strong sense of festivity and relaxation.

As a people though their is not a really united cultural experience beyond that imposed by the Climate. Each State has its own Culture and traditions.

This shall be covered in more detail at a latter date.

Tourism
« Reply #4 on: June 04, 2007, 10:02:52 PM »
Tourism is a largest industry in many of the states and the laws for entering the nation are lax because of this. They do not how ever allow fire arms, or none native flora and fauna to enter the nation. Besides that you just need picture ID and a valid passport. With those things you are free to enter the United Federation of States and spend your money in any of the States who vie to get your money.

Alliwood the Largest of the 13 states and largest European(change latter to something better) Majority Populace state is home to the Movie Capital of the Federation has many large Amusement Parks and other attractions designed to provide fun and attraction for all age groups. The Federation of Jensi as the 3rd largest State and the largest with a Oriental Majority Populace has many very exiting and fun Cultural Festivals to attract tourism to its region. New Nairobi is the second largest of the States and has the largest African(will replace with a better name fitting this region latter) Population has in it the Music Capital of the Federation in Caira City. Their you can see many exiting concerts and musical events of many different types.

The UFS has many things to offer to any Foreigner looking to just relax and have a fun vacation.

Internal Politics
« Reply #5 on: June 04, 2007, 10:12:14 PM »
The UFS has a very diverse and changing Democratic Political atmosphere. The many different political parties in each state leads to many different voices being heard. The Government is Strongly Democratic and so are all of the States in the Federation. No laws may be passes outlawing any political body or halting the spread of any persons political views or ideas.

This is not a perfect society in any seance. Some of the Political seance such as the Communist Peoples Party, the Revolutionary Peoples Party, the Christian Alliance, and the Nationalist Workers Party and many others on all ends of the political spectrum have Para Military branches ether officially or secretly part of their political operations. these Para-Militarize will often clash in violent battles in the Streets and attempt to bring the change and policies they want done by force. these forces so far have never been able to overthrow the Democratic government and do not seem to be nearing that but they do cause much turmoil in the Federation.

Since by the Articles of Confederation and many other Laws defending it no government body may hinder the ideals of Free Speech these clashes are not a secret. News Media both in side and outside and any other media is free to talk about or release any information about these events. This does not stop the government from reassuring any foreign Visitors that they are in no danger as these attacks do not enter the large tourist areas and the militarize of all the States are dedicated to insuring that all innocents are safe from this violence.

Military Police
« Reply #9 on: August 18, 2007, 07:33:42 PM »
While the term Military Police is sometimes seen as apart of an authoritarian government or secret police, or law enforcement for just armed forces this is not the case.

In the UFS since they are rather nonactive in international warfare the state police forces and state militarise have been completely intergrated after 1973 to help fight the para militarise. It was decided by all guvnors and supported by a general vote that the standard police were not able to combate these Para forces. From this the Military Police was born to work as law enforcement and State defence.
