The '''Democratic Republic of Usezoya''' (Ludic: '''Демократическая Республика Узезоя'''), commonly referred to as Usezoya, is a moderately sized nation located in northeastern Belisara. The country borders Ludvosiya to the west, Velikoslavia to the west and north, while to the south lies the Vornean or Ludic Sea and to the east lies the Trіŝina Sea. Covering 621,440 sq km, Usezoya contains a subarctic climate on the southern coast while the northern stretches, dominated by a number of rivers as well as the Panag Mountain Range, is generally tundra. The national capital is Nikodiansk, with the city of Sely largest by both population and land area. | The '''Democratic Republic of Usezoya''' (Ludic: '''Демократическая Республика Узезоя'''), commonly referred to as Usezoya, is a moderately sized nation located in northeastern [[Ajax|Belisara]].

Usezoya is a federal republic with distinct executive, legislative, and judicial branches. The ‘state’, or provincial, level comprises 27 Polkys and one federal district which is managed by the military. Domestically, Usezoyak politics can be characterized by a decentralized, provincial rule with few federal oversights save for general orders outlining desired developments, quotas for habitation and economics, and such focuses. In terms of foreign relations, Usezoya has cultivated twin avenues which it pursues simultaneously. On one hand, the country can be considered militaristic, building cooperative alliances with Velikoslavia and Mesogeia in an effort to be irreproachable by the historical foe, Ludvosiya, while on the other hand Usezoya has embarked on a policy of détente towards Ludvosiya. In recent years, politicians have leaned more on the latter policy than the former.

The Democratic Republic of Usezoya (Ludic: Демократическая Республика Узезоя), commonly referred to as Usezoya, is a moderately sized nation located in northeastern Belisara. The country borders Ludvosiya to the west, Velikoslavia to the west and north, while to the south lies the Vornean or Ludic Sea and to the east lies the Trіŝina Sea. Covering 621,440 sq km, Usezoya contains a subarctic climate on the southern coast while the northern stretches, dominated by a number of rivers as well as the Panag Mountain Range, is generally tundra.

Government and politics
One of the first democracies in eastern Belisaria, Usezoya today bears many of the same systems as it did with the end of the Popular Revolt in 1834. The country remains a democratic republic, distinctly lacking in formal political parties and the delineation between such during elections, with separate elections for the President and Vice President held every five years. A unitary Parliament, known as the Senate, governs legal disputes in the drafting of new laws and amendments made to the Constitution. Interpretation of law is restrained to the Central Court, whose members are drawn from common court justices and who are elected by agreement of the President and Senate.
Comprising 27 Provinces, referred internally as Polkys, and one Federal District, the island of Olszgoszcz, the nation is widely considered to remain highly decentralized with the majority of executive powers for actions affecting local Provinces laying within those same Provinces. Legally, however, Federal Law is known to supersede Provincial Law, though the topic remains contested well into modern days. A key issue is the federal government’s avowed secular stance, which is outlined in the first sections of the 1835 Constitution, as many Provinces who have majorities of Zvevo Traditionalism, Zoyist Naturalism, or Aletheic Nazarism have made irregularly periodic attempts to uplift these in comparison to others.
