Makko Oko, also known as the Empire Of Makko Oko, is a sovereign state located on an island by itself off the Katharos Ocean. Makko Oko is a unitary authoritarian socialist nation, with a single unified head of state and government, known as the Emperor. The current Emperor is Conall Solis, who is the nation's very first Emperor, and has been serving since the empire's inception in September of 2019. The capital of Makko Oko is Opposh, which has a population of about 450 million, about 15 percent of the nation's population as of the 2021 census.
Makko Oko, as an island nation, has historically had issues with poverty levels and the strength of the economy, which, during the establishment of the Republic Of Makko Oko, got to the point of a civil war, and led to the current establishment of the Empire Of Makko Oko. In present times, the nation has one of the most prosperous economies to date, worth around 700 trillion SLO's.
Etymology
The name, Makko Oko, was incepted upon the official creation of the Republic Of Makko Oko, and is said to be the name chosen due to the settling tribe, the Phoenix Island Tribe, having Hawaiian descent, and therefore choosing a rather tropical name for the nation. There doesn't appear to be any official demonyms for the chosen nation name.
History
Makko Oko came to be from the Phoenix Island Tribe finding the territory and claiming it in their name on December 10th, 1818. The Phoenix Island Tribe was the only tribe on the island, and no other tribe managed to set foot on it due to the technological advances that the tribe managed to do throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, including building a lighthouse to detect oncoming invaders. All Makko Okoans have Phoenix Island Tribe blood within them, and when the Republic Of Makko Oko was officially founded in 1990, many of the signatories to the Constitution still had grandparents alive who fought bloody wars between tribes, most of which had appeared to die off or become "integrated" into their respective countries' lives.

Politics
Politics in Makko Oko is quite intriguing, but nowadays is a mostly deadzone with many citizens not caring. According to the 2021 Census, apathy for politics within the Makko Okoan government was about 62 "I don't care" responses per 6 respondents, with a major increase in those responses predicted to hit in the next census report. The reason for the political apathy is due to the fact that Makko Oko is a unitary socialist authoritarian system, and as such has only a single centralized government, the national government, with provinces and states not existing, and cities not being allowed any power whatsoever. All power is consolidated into the Emperor, who is the head of state and head of government, and whoever they designate.
Emperor
The position of the Emperor was incepted upon the end of the Civil Transition War in September of 2019, with Conall Solis being voted up to take the reigns as the empire's very first Emperor and head of state since the war. No powers and structure of government were officially established until July of 2022 when a revision to the Basic Rights (the Constitution of Makko Oko) was made. The Emperor, being both the heads of state and government, represents Makko Oko internationally and additionally, due to the Emperor's seemingly limitless power, they are seen as a dictator, one who can only be removed through unlawful means.
Due to the lack of elections, the position of Emperor is seen as similar to that of a Monarch, where there's a specific line where each person gets to be the Emperor after the passing, retirement or any event where there is no longer a ruling Emperor, happens. In this case, as stipulated in the Bill Of Emperor's Passages and in the Basic Rights Of Makko Oko, the next Emperor is to be chosen via the previously ruling Emperor's will, and if there is no will, then a legislatively-established line of succession is followed. This means that the Emperor chooses who rules next, instead of having a bloodline where whoever is oldest and closest to the head of state, rules next.
Law and criminal justice
Makko Oko follows the common law legal system of court precedents along with established statute and pieces of legislation, and in addition to that, does have an established Constitution, known as the Basic Rights Of Makko Oko, that is setup to guarantee certain rights, establish government processes, etc. The Empire Of Makko Oko, for a period between 2019 to 2022, had no official constitutional document, and therefore, no guaranteed rights, and no official government establishment, which was different from the previous structure, the Republic Of Makko Oko, which had a Constitution since its establishment in 1990.
This meant that until that document had been ratified in the empire, Makko Oko had actually followed the civil law legal system, which had only court precedents, and no established law or constitution, which was also somewhat falling flat with Makko Oko having established law, just no established Constitution.
Foreign Relations
Makko Oko maintains relatively good, if not great, relations with most nations, having embassies established in each nation and ambassadors assigned. The Makko Okoan Government, while wanting to expand its territory, has not resorted to any expansionist agenda within the empire's history, instead, wanting to take advantage of wars and claim territory more friendly.
The closest allies of Makko Oko are considered to be the Controlist Ferwerter Union and any other authoritarian nation within its contact. However, Exsorcial, while also an authoritarian nation, is not liked by the Makko Okoan Government, even resorting to declaring legal genocide against any civilians of their nation that step foot on their soil.
