The Kingdom of Serriel is a unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy in North Catica in the International Democratic Union, comprising the large metropolitan city of Serriel and arid surrounding areas. The city of Serriel is a prosperous and developed financial center with a major focus on free-market policies, although the nation's income inequality (as measured by the Gini coefficient) is among the largest in the IDU, and slums and rural areas remain largely underdeveloped. Serriel is notable as a constitutional monarchy, as the location of one of Catica's preeminent stock exchanges, as a major tax haven, and as the only Muslim-majority nation currently in the IDU.
Geography
Despite Serriel's small area, two major biomes are represented within the nation. The coastal region around Serriel's interior is temperate and fertile, although the expansion of the city itself limits large-scale agriculture. Further inland, the predominant terrain becomes desert and mountainous highlands, inhabited by desert flora and fauna ranging from foxes to saker falcons. The desert highlands are sparsely populated in comparison to the coastal belt, where over 75% of the population lives.
Economy
Within the city of Serriel, the service sector is dominant among the middle and upper classes. Financial services, such as stock brokerage, banking, and accounting, make up a substantial portion of the economy, centered on the city's Financial District. Other service areas, such as customer service, hospitality, and the tourism sector, also make up portions of the urban economy. Menial labor, such as construction and domestic help, is supplied by a large and growing workforce of guest workers, particularly from the Serrielan highland areas and developing nations such as the Andhra Republic.
Politics
Serriel is a parliamentary democracy conducted under the auspices of a constitutional monarchy, with the King as head of state. Under the Constitution of 1992, voters in 110 single-member constituencies elect MPs under a first-past-the-post system, while the King selects a total of 20 MPs to represent women, the elderly, and other groups. Elections are held every five years, or sooner if Parliament is dissolved.
The King of Serriel, currently Muharrem II, is a position passed by patrilineal succession through the House of Sarraf. The King retains the power to nominate a Prime Minister and the authority to dissolve Parliament, as King Muharrem II did following the 2006 elections. The large and extended royal family retains significant wealth and influence in business.
Since the advent of democratic politics in Serriel, government have been formed by the All-Serriel National Union-Progressive Front (ASNU-PF), which has consistently won an outright majority in national elections. ASNU-PF is a moderate, big-tent political party, generally in favor of free-market economics and moderate secularism and social liberalism. The main opposition party is the Islamic Action Front, an Islamist party which, along with a minor Islamic party, won over 60 seats in the 2006 elections, prompting King Muharrem II to call fresh elections. Various minor parties also exist, notably the Democratic Alliance, a liberal party calling for wide-ranging reform to the Serrielan political system.
