Politically, A.C.S. is a federal presidential parliamentary republic, comprising 12 provinces and 3 special administrative districts. A.C.S.'s population of nearly 41 million is highly urbanized and heavily concentrated on the shoreline. Erebus is the nation's capital, while the five largest cities are Rothera, Frei, Syowa, Cape Adare, and Mawson. A.C.S.'s demography has been shaped by centuries of immigration, with immigrants accounting for 42% of the country's population, one of the highest proportion among major developed nations. A.C.S.'s abundant natural resources and well-developed international trade relations are crucial to the country's economy, which generates its income from various sources including services, mining exports, banking, scientific research, manufacturing, and international education.
