Phansi Uhlanga, formally known as the Democratic People's Republic of Phansi Uhlanga, is a country in central Malaio bordered by Pulacan to the east and the Ozeros sea to the north. The southeastern third of the nation is dominated by the Icilongothaba mountains, the tips of which are high enough as to bear snow throughout the year. In the north of the country rolling foothills give way to the low-lying Imihlume basin, which extends to the coast. Two thirds of the nation is covered by the Khoeli rainforest, except in the dryer and flatter west, made up mostly of expansive savanna.

The region of Phansi Uhlanga has been inhabited since time immemorial. Its indigenous peoples, the ǂBūkhokwe and N!twe, are among the oldest living ethnic groups in the world, having inhabited the region since time immemorial. The Bakhoeli would come to dominate the region as part of the early Komontu expansion during the iron age, going on to form complex polities that survived even into the age of colonialism. While “Bakhoeli” is the unifying identity of its peoples, it is made up of numerous ethno-linguistic subgroups, historically divided between the wetter, more mountainous east and the hotter, flatter interior. Alongside the Bakhoeli are the Bakonji, who split from the BaKhoeli to form the Kingdom of Konji during the Bronze Age. The Iqozi, another Komontu people, would arrive in successive waves between the late 18th and early 19th centuries, settling in the region's western-central agricultural heartland.

In the modern day Phansi Uhlanga is a single party Wernerist state with a centrally planned command economy in which the means of production are owned by the state through state-run enterprises and collectivized farms. Most services, such as healthcare, education, housing, and food production, are subsidized or state-operated. The economy is dominated by heavy industry and intensive manufacturing with a focus on exports, especially of rare earth elements, chemicals, and machinery. Despite this however agriculture remains a major sector of the economy, with beef and its byproducts especially representing its major industry. Phansi Uhlanga follows “Sesole Pele”, a "military first" policy which prioritizes the Revolutionary People’s Front in state affairs and the allocation of resources.

Politics & Government

The governmental structure of Phansi Uhlanga maintains dual power between the civilian and military administations, with the latter having ultimate authority over the former. This is best represented by the constitution of 1971, which defines the Revolutionary People's Front as the “armed vanguard of the people’s revolution” and the government as a revolutionary and socialist state "guided in its building and activities only by the universally applicable and immortal Wernerism-Ulwazism as applied to the nation’s unique material circumstances according to Njiba Impisi Thought". The Communist Party of Phansi Uhlanga is the only legal political organization has an estimated membership of seventeen million. It dominates every aspect of political life and the economy within the nation.

The constitution of the DPRPU defines Wernerism-Ulwazism and Njiba Impisi Thought as the “guiding ideology and belief of the Uhlangan state and people” and guarantees its citizens a host of rights, including the right to a fair trial, housing, sustenance, employment, education, healthcare, and freedom of speech, with exclusions for “hateful, derogatory or politically offensive actions meant to attack national unity”. It was adopted in 1971, replacing the constitution of Democratic Iqozi and formally codifying the modern commune system in Phansi Uhlanga. This was part of a greater program of political reform that lasted throughout the late twentieth century. Other changes involved the formalization of national military governance under a system of Front Commands, which continues on to the modern day. Despite this however, the constitution and government of the Democratic People’s Republic remains committed to advancing Uhlangan socialism, with a stated goal of “achieving a moderately prosperous and serene socialist state by 2030” and “communism by the century’s end”.

Military rule in Phansi Uhlanga is ideologically codified in the form of “Sesole Pele”, a "military first" policy which prioritizes the Revolutionary People’s Front in state affairs and the allocation of resources. This is part of an overarching ideological program within Njiba Impisi Thought known as “Abe Inqaba”, which encourages “military and economic self-sufficiency wherever possible”.

The head of state and government is the Supreme Commander of the Revolutionary People’s Front, who has the power to oversee the administration of all national law as well passing his own in the form of executive orders. The Supreme Commander is constitutionally defined as the senior most officer in the military, having wide ranging and ultimate authority over virtually all matters of state. Chief among the Supreme Commander’s responsibilities is the appointment of judges to the Supreme Court, members to the Central Committee and generals to leadership of the nation’s Front Commands, or military districts. The office of Supreme Commander is a lifetime position and is theoretically elected by collective decision from among the group of Front Commanders. However, General Njiba Impisi has held the position since its inception in 1971.

The Supreme People’s Indaba is the unicameral legislature of the Democratic People’s Republic. The constitution identifies the SPI as the source from which all offices and institutions derive official legitimacy. It consists of one deputy from each People’s Commune within Phansi Uhlanga, as well as reserved seats for minority and indigenous groups, and the military. Deputies are elected to five year terms without term limits. It meets twice a year to discuss matters of state for a period of one week, totalling two weeks in session per year. Because the DPRPU is a constitutionally mandated one party state, all members of the SPI are also members of the Communist Party.

The SPI serves to debate, enact, repeal and amend legislation affecting the whole of Phansi Uhlanga. It has the power to alter the constitution with a two thirds vote, to amend, permanently enact or repeal temporary legislation passed by the Central Committee while the SPI is not in session, to establish the basic principles of the nation’s foreign and domestic policy, determine and amend state budgets, and to provide input on and enact the nation’s Five Year Plans. Additionally, the SPI nominates the membership of the Central Committee, elects all members of the Cabinet, and establishes and disestablishes various governing committees and agencies. The President of the Supreme People’s Indaba serves as its speaker, with his powers including casting a tie breaking vote and the calling and closing of SPI legislative sessions.

The Central Committee of the Supreme People’s Assembly is the highest civilian organ of state power within Phansi Uhlanga while the Supreme People’s Indaba is not in session, as defined by the constitution. Its major role is to act as supervisor of the Cabinet and the nation’s governmental institutions as a whole. The Central Committee monitors all activities by all governmental offices to ensure total political and legal compliance. It additionally also acts as the first line of response for issues encountered with the national Five Year Plans and appoints all political officers of the General Political Bureau to the Revolutionary People’s Front.

Not only does it deliberate on all matters related to foreign policy, defense, national economic policy and domestic security, the Central Committee also directly abrogates all decisions of state organs that are considered to run counter to the directives of the SPI. Members of the Central Committee are nominated by the SPI and confirmed by the Supreme Commander. There are typically nine to fifteen members of the Central Committee, including the Supreme Commander and all Front Commanders. Central Committee members serve five year terms.

The Cabinet of Phansi Uhlanga is, per the constitution, the administrative body and general state-management organ in the civilian government. The Cabinet is responsible for implementing the state's economic and civil policies. However, it does not have responsibility for issues pertaining to national security or defense, these being under the direct jurisdiction of the Supreme Commander and the various Front Commands. Members of the Cabinet are elected by the Supreme People’s Indaba for a five year term without term limits, automatically renewed.

The Cabinet has the power to adopt legally binding measures to execute state policy , amend and implement economic regulations, guide the work of all Cabinet subordinate commissions, bureaus and ministries, draft the Five Year Plans for the national economy, compile the national budget and adopt measures to implement it, perform inspections and control work to ensure total compliance with state economic directives and to ensure accuracy of reporting data, abolish decisions and directions by state economic organ, which run counter to the directions made by its members, and adopt and enact measures regarding the monetary and banking system of Phansi Uhlanga.

The Supreme Court is the highest organ of the judiciary. Its justices are appointed to the Court by the Supreme Commander for five year terms without term limits, and can be recalled at any time by a two thirds vote of the SPI. The Supreme Court serves as the highest appellate court in the Union, though in certain legal cases, such as crimes against the state, it is the court of first instance. Decisions made by the Supreme Court cannot be challenged or appealed except by further directives of the Court or by executive order of the Supreme Commander. It has specific chambers for civil, criminal and political crimes. The Court is staffed by a Chief Justice and twelve judges. Its chief role is to determine the constitutionality of laws and to protect the rights of the individual against actions taken by the state. It also supervises all lower courts in the country, including all trials and proceedings, and oversees the appointment and training of judges.

A Front is an individual military district and the largest peacetime unit of the Revolutionary People’s Front. It is constitutionally defined as “the smallest contiguous region capable of maintaining continuity-of-government during wartime”, consisting of any number of communes and typically includes one or more industrial or agricultural centers. Each Front is tasked with overseeing local laws passed by the Communist Parties of the communes and has the authority to intercede or overrule local civil authority on matters deemed important to national defense. A Front Command directs general military affairs within a Front, chief among these conscription of military personnel, as well over most heavy industry in the form of Special Economic Zones. A Front Commander is a position held until life or retirement and is appointed by the Supreme Commander.

The People’s Commune is the basic Uhlangan administrative unit. A People’s Commune is usually a rural township or city, or a part of a larger metropolitan area, comprising one or more economic firms and its constituent populations. A People’s Commune is typically made up of the workers of one or several Work Brigades, including support services such as clinics, schools, and grocery stores. A People’s Commune numbers up to one hundred thousand. Each commune’s branch of the Communist Party elects officials to the communal People’s Indaba for a five year term without limits. The People’s Indaba in turn makes all laws governing its commune and appoints deputies to various bureaucratic committees and commissions.
