The Republic of Mont is a country on the northern coast of Scipia along the Periclean Sea. It shares borders with Talakh and Yisrael to the west and Lusittia and Charnea to the east. Much of the country is covered by the Astral Mountain Range and the eponymous "Mount" is one of the range's northernmost prominences.

Mont is a democratic republic represented by a unicameral legislature and an independent executive. As a unitary state, power is concentrated within the central government which delegates local powers to the nation's nine provinces. The region that is now contained within the Republic of Mont has historically been the homeland of various Amaziɣ peoples and societies, though since the high middle ages Audonic people have culturally dominated the society. As such, both a dialect of Audonic and Tamaziɣt are commonly spoken languages, the latter seeing a resurgence after the republic gained its independence in 1815.

A developed nation, while ostensibly a market system the economy is heavily regulated and a majority of industries are dominated by worker-owned syndicates rather than private corporations. Extensive social services are also provided by the government, such that the nation is frequently characterized as a socialist republic, though private ownership remains in place. Major exports include tea and other cash crops, pharmaceuticals, and post-industrial products.

Government and politics

The Republic of Mont is a unitary presidential republic subdivided into five provinces devolved from the central government. The three divisions of power are: the executive, the judiciary, and the legislative. The executive branch is led by a president who is elected every four years, the same period for which members of the unicameral legislature, the Convention of Citizens, also serve and are elected. Members of the judiciary are appointed by the executive and are confirmed by the legislature. Traditionally, the only recognized language of law and politics was Old Audonic as a legacy of crusader colonialism, however, since 1916 Tamaziɣt has equal status and recognition.

Throughout the 20th century, the political landscape in Mont was highly diverse with many parties representing different interests in the legislature. Within the last three decades, however, the spectrum has coalesced into two broad political coalitions: the incumbent Social-Progressive Alliance and the opposing Industrial Liberty Front. The political spectrum within Mont differs greatly from other nations, skewing heavily to the left. The traditional right-wing position is occupied by the Social-Progressive Alliance which is a typical social democratic party which advocates for a market economy with social interventions to promote equity. The Industrial Liberty Front is a more radical anarcho-syndicalist party which argues for the dismantling of various state apparatuses in favour of union control over services and regulation.
