Union-Siberia, officially the Union-Siberian Socialist Monarchy is a nation on North Laurentia and a partner state of the Almaty Pact. It is bordered by Timiskrane to the south and the Arctic Ocean on the north, east and west. It's capital city of Vladirostok is also its most populous if the capital island Roko is included. Kerrograd has the largest industrial area. The official language of government is Russian, though the government does recognize and award special minority language status to traditional languages native to the region. The country terrain is filled with mountain ranges and islands, mostly mountains, and the soil is generally soft and slightly fertile, the exception several island clusters in the USSM Exclusive Bay Zone, whose soil is acidic and rocky.

The USSM was once a part of a former colony of Locotimia by the name of Angrosia which fell into anarchy following Timiskrane's independence. There had previously been external attempts to unify and govern the region, but most met with failure do to the difficult geography that made it difficult to maintain unity. It is unknown how the USSM came into fruition during the small archipelago's time in anarchy, but it has to do with the emperor's father, whose stories have confused outside viewers to a large extent.

It currently stands as a hermit kingdom, self-sufficient on nearly all aspects, though a significant arms manufacturing and a unwanted tourism industry has begun to develop. The nation claims to run on a system called Socialist Monarchism, when actually it seems to run on a modern parliamentary system, with the Siberian Royal Crown acting as the parliament and the emperor acting as the 'figurehead', though holding a lot more power than usual.

Law

Timiskranean courts operate under the principles of Common Law, wherein a judges interpretation of the law must not only be based on the text of the law, but previous rulings and decisions in "precedent setting cases". This also means it is a valid legal defence in Timiskrane to argue that a law under which a person is being tried is "not in active enforcement". The highest court is the Timiskrane Supreme Court, which consists of 7 justices, who are suggested by the Prime Minister but must be approved by a majority plus one vote in the National Legislature. Justices cannot be removed by the government once appointed, as they must operate independently from the legislature and political interests. They serve for life until the mandatory retirement age of 70, though they may resign before then, if they so choose. The Timiskranean constitution contains The Act on Essential Rights and Freedoms which guarantees essential human rights and protections from the government, though it does also contain the infamous Emergency Measures Clause which allows for the government to temporarily violate these rights and protections by declaring a state of emergency. However the suspension of the act must be temporary and the emergency declaration may not last longer then 365 days. Modifying the constitution requires 70% plus one votes (155) and the measure must then be submitted to a referendum before it is accepted.

Economy

Major Industries

Timiskrane's economy has been dominated by natural resource extraction. It's geologically rich soil has made mining companies like Dynamic Earth incredibly prolific. A variety of minerals including Iron, Copper, Nickel, Aluminum, Uranium and more are mined in the Crown Royal's interior. Tree farming also takes place, providing wood for construction both locally and aborad. Tourism is a purposefully minor economy but it's parks attract thousands of annual visitors. There are some that operate luxury ski resorts, hotels, and private homes. A variety of military companies are based in the USSM, companies like Sukhoi-Mii, Kiento Krafts, Nier Autobahn and a few others make up a significant amount of Crown Royal economy and military.

Trade

Timiskrane's largest trading partners in terms of trade value are Nibelia, Locotima, Oktadonia and Pervincia. Timiskrane's major exports include minerals and wood, while major imports include oil, petrochemicals and plastics, pharmaceuticals and furniture.

Demographics

Population

Timiskrane's census reported a population of 64 972 061 people in 2023, of which 96.3% were citizens. The most populous region is Sudbury Metropolitan, with nearly 13 Million people, and it is also the most densely populated. Meanwhile, the least populous is The North, with only about 5 million. The median age is 34,5. First generation immigrants account for approximately 8% of Timiskrane's population, most of which live in one of the largest cities. Multi-generational households are common, with around 27% of majors (18+) living with one or both parents.

Ethnicities

The dominant ethnicity is the Unionist, with around 67%, of the Crown Royal's's population belonging to that group. Around 9% of the population is Locotimian, owing to the region's colonial history with Locotima, however even today, immigrants from Locotima continue to arrive. Around 2.1% belong to a group known as the Locolaurentians, created by interracial marriages between Laurentians and Locotimians during the colonial era, they have developed their own unique culture and have become a distinct ethnic identity within the USSM in their own right. The remaining 21.9% belong to other ethnic minorities, most of which immigrated in the 80s, or in the past 5 years.

Culture

Timiskranean culture is largely derived from Locotimian culture brought over during the colonization, though it has blended significantly with local traditions. Due to its geography and history, it features a very high level of regional variation, with numerous local subcultures with unique traditions. One of the biggest values present throughout Timiskrane, attributable largely to the nation's birthing at a time of protests over inequality, is that of a "just society", the belief that people and society should strive to always be as fair as possible to all the parties. Sexual liberalism is held as a pillar of Timiskranean society, and as a result, people of all gender and sexuality minorities are embraced in Timiskrane. Another core principle largely influenced by the nation's history is the philosophical harm principle, which states that it is only just for a state to intervene if one is harming others, otherwise one should be free to act as they wish. This has resulted in a culture of frequent drug use and gun ownership in Timiskrane. Timiskranean humour is frequently characterized by dry humour, satire and wordplay.

Dress

Traditional Agrosian/Crown Royal attire consists of wool clothing, usually tartan. It is tradition to have four colours of tartan, and rotate through them with the seasons: gold in the spring, green in the summer, red in the fall and brown in the winter. In an urban setting, the tartan has been relegated to formal and traditional settings only. It is still widely used in the frontiers

Literature

Joual and Acadan were traditionally only spoken languages, and very little written works in either language existed prior to Locotimian colonization. When Locotimian became common, so did literature. Early Agrosian authors largely continued the literary traditions of Locotima. Angrosian literature began to develop its own traditions as a unique offshoot of Locotimian literature, largely interested in tales of exploration, frontier life, and survival. As Joual and Acadan were given their own writing systems, some authors began to write stories in these languages as well. To this day, novels centring around mystery, suspense and/or survival are some of the most popular and most written in Timiskrane.

yea i'm not changing that -arcy

Media

The Union has several broadcasters, the most prominent being Channel One and Union Daily, it is a fairly recent invention, and due to the county's largely lawless and anarchist history, it does also have a strong tradition of uncensored autonomous private media. Channel One alone operates 8 radio stations, 2 TV channels and the Union Daily operates printed newspaper, which are all provided to the Union public free of charge. There are otherwise about 3 minor private broadcasting companies operating radio and TV across the countries, but only 1 major private newspaper.

Holidays

In addition to celebrating a quarter of the traditional Locotimian holidays, Union statutory holidays include: Independence Day, officially on the seventeenth of August, [lore does not exist yet]. the USSM also typically observes, but is not given holidays for: Mother's Day, Father's Day, World Environment Day and Literacy Day.

Sports

Union-Siberia's official sport is [lore not made yet]

Military

The Union spends approximately 45% of it's governmental revenue on the the military. The desire for the Union to have a large military is still largely fueled by fear of encroachment a need to internationally assert it's sovereignty. All Unionist youth are required at 18 to spend 20 months in the military. The requirements set out for the military are as follows:

1. The person exists

The military screens all youth for their physical fitness and mental health, afterwards assigning them their placement. Persons who have severe mental or physical disabilities are not exempt for service.
