=== | The Federation of Chanchajillan Republics are a federation whose government is representative, democratic and republican based on a presidential system according to the 1951 Constitution. The constitution establishes three levels of government: the federal Union, the state governments and the municipal governments. According to the constitution, all constituent states of the federation must have a republican form of government composed of three branches: the executive, represented by a governor and an appointed cabinet, the legislative branch constituted by a unicameral congress and the judiciary, which will include a state Supreme Court of Justice. They also have their own civil and judicial codes. The federal legislature is the bicameral Congress of the Union, composed of the Senate of the Republic and the Chamber of Deputies. The Congress makes federal law, declares war, imposes taxes, approves the national budget and international treaties, and ratifies diplomatic appointments. | ||
The federal Congress, as well as the state legislatures, are elected by a system of parallel voting that includes plurality and proportional representation. The Chamber of Deputies has 500 deputies. Of these, 300 are elected by plurality vote in single-member districts (the federal electoral districts) and 200 are elected by proportional representation with closed party lists for which the country is divided into five electoral constituencies. The Senate is made up of 128 senators. Of these, 64 senators (two for each state and two for [[Vilanja]]) are elected by plurality vote in pairs; 32 senators are the first minority or first-runner up (one for each state and one for Vilanja), and 32 are elected by proportional representation from national closed party lists. | |||
The executive is the [[President of East Chanchajilla|President of the Chanchajillan Republics]], who is the head of state and government, as well as the commander-in-chief of the East Chanchajillan military forces. The current President is [[Gideon Boer]], who took power following the resignation of [[Andres Obrahoma]] in 2018. The President also appoints the Cabinet and other officers. The President is responsible for executing and enforcing the law, and has the power to veto bills. The highest organ of the judicial branch of government is the Supreme Court of Justice, the national supreme court, which has eleven judges appointed by the President and approved by the Senate. The Supreme Court of Justice interprets laws and judges cases of federal competency. Other institutions of the judiciary are the Federal Electoral Tribunal, collegiate, unitary and district tribunals, and the Council of the Federal Judiciary. | |||

===Law Enforcement=== | |||
Public security is enacted at the three levels of government, each of which has different prerogatives and responsibilities. Local and state police departments are primarily in charge of law enforcement, whereas the Chanchajillan Federal Police are in charge of specialized duties. All levels report to the Secretaría de Seguridad Pública (Secretary of Public Security). The General Attorney's Office (Fiscalía General de la República, FGR) is a constitutional autonomous organism in charge of investigating and prosecuting crimes at the federal level, mainly those related to drug and arms trafficking, espionage, and bank robberies. The FGR operates the Federal Ministerial Police (Policia Federal Ministerial, PMF) an investigative and preventive agency. | |||
While the government generally respects the human rights of its citizens, serious abuses of power have been reported in security operations in the southern part of the country and in indigenous communities and poor urban neighborhoods. The [[Coalition of Crown Albatross]]'s Human Rights Commission has had little impact in reversing this trend, engaging mostly in documentation but failing to use its powers to issue public condemnations to the officials who ignore its recommendations. By law, all defendants have the rights that assure them fair trials and humane treatment; however, the system is overburdened and overwhelmed with several problems. | |||
Despite the efforts of the authorities to fight crime and fraud, most East Chanchajillans have low confidence in the police or the judicial system, and therefore, few crimes are actually reported by the citizens. In 2008, president [[Diego Charpantier]] proposed a major reform of the judicial system, which was approved by the Congress of the Union, which included oral trials, the presumption of innocence for defendants, the authority of local police to investigate crime—until then a prerogative of special police units—and several other changes intended to speed up trials. | |||
===Crime=== | |||
Drug cartels are a major concern in East Chanchajilla. East Chanchajilla's drug war, ongoing since 2006, has left over 50,000 dead and perhaps another 37,000 missing. The Chanchajillan drug cartels have as many as 100,000 members and are largely sponsored by the [[West Chanchajilla]]n regime of [[Frederick Armbar]]. The Zamastanian Department of State warns its citizens to exercise increased caution when traveling in East Chanchajilla, issuing travel advisories on its website. President Diego Charpantier (2007–15) made eradicating organized crime one of the top priorities of his administration by deploying military personnel to cities where drug cartels operate. This move was criticized by the opposition parties and the C.C.A. Human Rights Commission for escalating the violence, but its effects have been positively evaluated by the Zamastanian State Department's Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs as having obtained "unprecedented results" with "many important successes". | |||
Since President Charpantier launched a crackdown against cartels in 2008, more than 13,000 alleged criminals have been successfully killed. Of the total drug-related violence 4% are innocent people, mostly by-passers and people trapped in between shootings; 90% accounts for criminals and 6% for military personnel and police officers. In October 2008, President Charpantier and Zamastanian president [[Cassious Castovia]] announced the Piérida Initiative, a plan of law enforcement cooperation between the two countries, which lasts to this day. | |||
Politicians are often the target of the drug cartels, with 4 mayors and a federal senator being killed in 2019. Visiting dignataries are urged to have caution while traveling and rarely go anywhere in the country without a federal security escort. In October of 2020, Zamastanian [[Secretary of Defense (Zamastan)|Secretary of Defense]] [[Camille Boffrand]] was the [[Attempted assassination of Camille Boffrand|target of an assassination attempt]] by a hired agent of the [[Syraranto]] [[Kyriakos Tasoulas|Tasoulas]] government while on a security summit visit to [[Vilanja]] because of his support of rebel forces in the [[Second Syraranto Civil War|ongoing civil war in Syraranto]]. | |||
===Foreign Relations and Military=== | |||
East Chanchajilla is a member of the [[Coalition of Crown Albatross]], having joined the organization in 1981. The foreign policies and relations of the country are dictated by the President. Its closest ally is Zamastan, with whom they share a flowing market trade and a natural border. | |||
The East Chanchajillan military "provides a unique example of a military leadership's transforming itself into a civilian political elite, simultaneously transferring the basis of power from the army to a civilian state." The transformation was brought about by revolutionary generals in the 1930s and 1940s, following the deconstruction of the Federal Army following its engagement in the more than decade-long [[Chanchajillan Civil War]]. | |||
The Federal Chanchajillan Armed Forces have two branches: the Army and the Air Force.

East Chanchajilla, or as it is less commonly referred to as the Republic of Chanchajilla and the official title of Federation of Chanchajillan Republics is a nation located on the continent of Euronia in the Coalition of Crown Albatross. It is landlocked and bordered by Zamastan to the south, Paraboca to the north, West Chanchajilla to the west, and Avergnon in the east. The west and east had been unified as Greater Chanchajilla from their respective kingdoms since 1450, although a brutal occupation and resulting violent Parabocan War eventually eroded the social and governmental states of the nation. The separation of Chanchajilla and the ensuing Chanchajillan Civil War in 1932-44 resulted in two separate nations; east and west. East Chanchajilla, which remained a capitalist-centered economy with more political freedoms than their neighbors to the west, gained significant aid from Zamastan following the conclusion of the World War, and they provided packages that built their military, infrastructure, and economics.
East Chanchajilla is considered developing, and has a semi-industrialised economy with a well-integrated agriculture sector and a growing services sector. It is ranked among the emerging economies of the world, and is backed by one of the world's largest and fastest-growing middle class. The country continues to face challenging problems, including overpopulation, terrorism, poverty, illiteracy, and corruption. East and West have also had multiple violent and sporadic conflicts between on their border in the past century, including the South Turania Offensive.

Republic
In 1949-50, Drambenburgian airraids on East Chanchajillan military supply storages, provoked by the rampant escalation of the World War ongoing in neighboring Avergnon, prompted the nation to offer refugee status to thousands of Avergnonians. The country eventually joined the war, allowing Zamastanian troops to use their territory as a staging area to recapture Avergnon, and often times fighing alongside them in massive battles. East Chanchajilla reformed into a republic following their entrance to the war and in the midst of the conflict, electing their first ever President, Biel Morata, in 1951. The World War concluded in 1954 with the surrender of Drambenburg and the Dominion of the Sanguine Church, and East Chanchajilla rapidly began to modernize and flourish with a more freed up capitalist styled economy and a more open system of government. Aid from countries like Zamastan and Emmiria flowed into the country as well, further propelling their prospects.

Foreign Relations and Military
East Chanchajilla is a member of the Coalition of Crown Albatross, having joined the organization in 1981. The foreign policies and relations of the country are dictated by the President. Its closest ally is Zamastan, with whom they share a flowing market trade and a natural border.
The East Chanchajillan military "provides a unique example of a military leadership's transforming itself into a civilian political elite, simultaneously transferring the basis of power from the army to a civilian state." The transformation was brought about by revolutionary generals in the 1930s and 1940s, following the deconstruction of the Federal Army following its engagement in the more than decade-long Chanchajillan Civil War.
The Federal Chanchajillan Armed Forces have two branches: the Army and the Air Force. The Armed Forces maintain significant infrastructure, including facilities for design, research, and testing of weapons, vehicles, aircraft, river boat naval vessels, defense systems and electronics; military industry manufacturing centers for building such systems, advanced heavy military equipment, and advanced missile technologies.
