The Kleinburg Republiek, commonly referred to as Kleinberg meaning "Small Mountain", is a bicameral republic that survives off its agricultural and mining industry. The lands were settled by the Baanbreken, meaning "pioneers", mainly with the intention to land themselves and farm.

Government

The Baanbreken government is a bicameral legislative body called the Volksraad. The upper chamber called the Eerste Volksraad is the highest authority within the government, controlling all state affairs. The lower chamber called the Tweede Volksraad represented immigrant and non-burghers within the Republiek. The second chamber may propose legislation, but in order for it to be law, it must be past by the Eerste Volksraad. Each chamber of the Volksraad is made up of twnety four delegates, two from each district within the Republiek.

Culture

Generally, Baanbreken culture is described as more on the conservative side. A staple in Baanbreken folklore is the concept of the "Yeoman Farmer", a cultural identidy which is praised throughout the agrarian society, which is a class of landowning farmers. Baanbreken culture is rather undiversified due to the rigid, conservative ways of most of the country and the stroing racial divide and apartheid laws. Traditional Montichellian values are centered around the family, which reflects the devloutionized country as a whole, but the cultures of each state are distinct and vary due to their enviorment and local governments.

Economy

Reflective of the culture and society, the Baanbreken economy is based around free-market agriculture. Ranging from subsistant farming to plantation farming, most employed and self-employed citizens work in direct or supporting agricultural jobs. As a result of most land in Montichellia being cultivated farming land, the industrial base of the country are centralized in urban centers built around mines, which has left little space for extensive industry, leading to the large need of imported manufactured goods.

Military

The Baanbreken military is made up of one branch, that being the Kleinberg Weermag, or the Kleinberg Army. The army is rather small due to the nation's reliance of the Kommando system, a system where a localities defence relies on locally raised militias called Kommandos.
