Davostan

Geography and Climate
The Independant Davostan Republic is one of the three nations that create the continent of Makon. Davostan lies on the west coast of the continent, with 3 mainland reigons and 2 island provinces.

Being in the Northern Hemisphere, Davostan is used to a cooler climate, with short spells of warmth during the summer months.

The Eastern Provinces of Kivonah and Tarekha sit on the border between Davostan and neighbouring country Hutori. The Provinces of Davograd and Muronia, lay offshore and are accessible by regular Ferries when the weather is not too fierce.

The centre of Davostan is within the Dakruth reigon, where the capital city of Dakruth can be found.

The People
For a small nation consisting of land that amounts to only 998,700 km², the Davostan Republic is home to almost 90 million citizens. Rich with culture and history, the Davostan people have a proud heritage that stretches further back than the official date when the nation became a democracy.

The Government
The government system has been largely unchanged since the country was founded, however there are particular different stages between left and right wing ideologies amongst elected parties. Lengthy battles between the Unity Party, The Conservative Party and the Satanic Republican Party have shaped the law of the country over a period of 200 years. The latest government however, led by the Democratic Revolution Party, promises a liberal future for the nation.

The President
Although originally the title was of "Chief Consul", the head of state is now known as 'The President'. Famous Presidents in Davostan's past include Ranbir Singh, The Black Pope, and Ian Chadwick.

The House of Commons
The House of Commons is governed by the Prime Minister, who is usually selected by the governing party. The House of Commons is a place of debate, and frequently some of the most important issues in Davostan are debated here. The Cabinet is made up of members elected through proposals, and often a cabinet is proportional to the seperation of seats within the commons (Especially with the Democratic Revolution Party).

Today's House of Commons holds seats for 3 different parties.


 * Satanic Republican Party
 * Democratical Revolution Party
 * The Unity Party

Presedential and General elections both take place every 4 years, regularly in October. At these elections, votes from citizens in each of the 5 Provinces are counted and 500 House of Commons seats are allocated. Davostan is currently well known for it's record breaking attempts to count votes in the fastest time possible, and are at the head of new attempts to include technology in the voting procedure.
