'''Hammerfest''', officially the '''United Socialist Republic of Hammerfest''' (Hammerfesting: ''Förenade Socialistiska Republiken Hammerfest''), is a country in Scandinavia. It borders Pavlovsk to the east, and shares a maritime border with the German Federation to the south. With a population of over twelve million, Hammerfest is one of the most sparsely populated countries in Europe.  
'''Hammerfest''', officially the '''United Socialist Republic of Hammerfest''' (Hammerfesting: ''Förenade Socialistiska Republiken Hammerfest''), is a country in Scandinavia. It borders Pavlovsk to the east and shares a maritime border with the Hulmian Federation and Niagara Union (through Qamutikrai) to the south and west respectively. With a population of just over twelve million, Hammerfest is one of the most sparsely populated countries in Europe. Hammerfest is officially a socialist republic, but practices an unorthodox approach of socialism known as "enlightened socialism."


Hammerfest has stayed neutral as a country since the second world war, and stayed as a diplomatically and economically isolated country until 1985, trading only with fellow leftist neighbor countries such as [[Pavlovsk]] and the [[French Federation]]. In recent years, Hammerfest has opened up and begun diplomatic missions globally, as a part of its Verdens Venn initiative (lit. "friend of the world"). Hammerfest is an active member of Glascom, an international ecomonic bloc between economically-left countries. Other major members include [[Pavlovsk]], [[Yahel]], [[Carpathia]], and [[Sentola]].


Hammerfest has the third highest GDP per Capita rating in Europe of $41185.56. It's HDI is impressively high for a socialist country, scoring a .809 on the HDI index, inferior only to Cyprus and the [[Rhone Republic]]. It is ranked AAA by all three major credit bureaus, one of the few country in the world with an unanimous rating.


==Politics==
==Politics==
The United Socialist Republic of Hammerfest is ruled by the Supreme Worker's Council, which consists of 11 Councillors who collectively act as the nation's head of government. Elected every 20 years by the virtually superfluous National People's Congress, many Councillors maintain their position until death. The Supreme Worker's Council is represented by the General Secretary, who also acts as the country's Head of State. The current General Secretary is Áillun Wermager, a member of the SPH. The Constitution of the USRH states that the government shall consist of three equal branches of government, but in practice almost all power is granted to the executive. The socioeconomic ideology of "enlightened socialism" is enshrined in the constitution. Founded by Gustaf Skørsgard, enlightened socialism combines the ideologies of utilitarianism and socialism, along with the goal of achieving true socialism, and an unusual tolerance for capitalism.
As identified in the Revised Constitution of 1999, Hammerfest is a "parliamentary democracy that embraces the ideals of socialism and practices unity in rule by means of a vanguard party."
 
Multiple political parties exist, but membership is optional and no single party is enshrined in the constitution. Many parties exist, each with distinct views on enlightened socialism and its true meaning; the largest political parties have been in constant dispute about who's version is right since the creation of the USRH. The National Agrarian Front, Socialist Party of Hammerfest, and Democratic Coalition are the three largest political parties, each comprising roughly 10-20% of the electorate in Hammerfest. For the past 60 years, the Supreme Worker's Council has consisted of a ratio of 3 NAF to 4 SPH to 2 DC to 2 unaligned Councillors. As such, it has been regarded as the "secret formula" for Hammerfest, although in recent years the nationalist Nords First movement, led by Alfric Stormcloak, has been gaining steady support and may gain a seat on the Supreme Worker's Council in the next election: 2000.




===Government===
===Government===
The National People's Congress is main governing body of the Federal government of Pavlovsk. As a collective body, the National People's Congress serves as an overseer of the General Secretary's office, and can override policies made by the General Secretary via unanimous vote. The Congress' more concrete powers come from it's 11 individual committees, each of which dictates the policy of a Federal Ministry. All Congress members are apart of at least one committee, but some are apart of multiple. The majority of Congress members' time is spent within these specialized committees.
[[File:Pavfedgovstructure.png|350px|thumb|right|Diagram of the Federal Government's Structure]]
The Congressional committees reside over their 11 respective Ministries: Agriculture, Economy, Defense, Education, Energy, Justice, Labor, State, Interior, Transportation, and Security. The Ministries of Economy, Defense, State, Security, and Justice are considered the "top five" ministries, and have significant authority of the way the nation is run. Each Ministry is headed by a committee-appointed Secretary, who are directed by the Constitution to "accurately and concisely carry out policies dictated by their Ministry's committee."
The General Secretary is the de jure head of state, elected by the National People's Congress. The [[Premier of the Communist Party of Pavlovsk|Premier]] is appointed by the General Secretary and approved by the National People's Congress, and serves the head of government. The General Secretary also presides over the Central State Board, which is composed of the Premier, and the Secretaries of the top Ministries. Committee leaders also frequently sit in on Central State Board meetings. The incumbent General Secretary is [[Vladimir Poutine]]. The incumbent Premier is [[Nursultan Napkinayev]].


Since [[Mikhail Gorbachad]] took office in 1985, there have been some moves toward political liberalization within Pavlovsk, in that open contested mayoral and council elections are now held at the town and city levels, with little to no party oversight. However, the party retains effective control over higher government appointments, as candidates for election in the Worker's Councils must be approved by the party. However, requirements for party approval have been eased significantly since 1985.

Covering approximately one-sixth of the Earth's land surface, Pavlovsk spans numerous climates and regions. Pavlovsk is typically considered to lay upon Eurasia, or the European and Asian continents. The highest peak in the nation is {{wpl|Ismoil Somoni Peak|Revolution's Peak}}, at 7,495m (24,590ft). {{wpl|Lake Baikal}} is the largest lake in Pavlovsk, and is the largest (by volume) freshwater lake on the planet, with more water than the North American {{wpl|Great Lakes}} combined, containing 22-23% of the world's fresh surface water at ~23,615 km3 fresh water. Lake Baikal is also the deepest lake in the world at 1,642m deep.
The European portion of Pavlovsk accounts for approximately a quarter of the country's area but is the economic and cultural hub of the nation, with the capital city of [[Chekhov]] acting as the functional center of European Pavlovsk. Past the Urals, significant Pavlovski cities include: {{wpl|Tashkent}} in the south, home to the [[Glasnost Community|Glasnost Community's]] Parliament and Agency Headquarters, {{wpl|Astana}} upon the Kazakh steppe, a major transportation and trade hub for trans-siberian trade, {{wpl|Irkutsk}}, a major population center upon Lake Baikal, and {{wpl|Vladivostok}} in the far east, the main point of contact for Pacific trade into Pavlovsk.
