'''Kozakura''', officially the '''State of Kozakura''' (!Japanese: 小桜国, ''Kozakura-koku''), is a city-state situated in the western continent of Major Kistvach of Esvanovia. It shares a land border with the nation of Jin Yi to the east and the island nation of Chilokver to the west. The city state is governed by a military government (known as the Yamauchi ''bakufu'') led by the Shōgun. The city-state’s head of state, the Emperor, is a ceremonial figurehead, having lost its authority to rule since the loss of the Kozakuran hinterlands in 19xx.

In 1978, a second military coup deposed the traditionalist members of the shogunate and was replaced by more modernist leaders. As Shōgun, Kōji Yamauchi oversaw the city-state’s transformation into a developed city-state with a high-income economy under his leadership.

Kozakura's legal system is the Unified Code of Military Justice (''軍事司法の統一規範, Gunji shihō no tōitsu kihan''), the [[Kozakuran Armed Forces]]' military justice system. It has been in place since 1951 following Kozakura's defeat in the Great War. Post-war developments led to the previous civilian-led functions of the government were superseded by the governing organs established by the Sakurada Shogunate. The 1978 Coup, the rise of the Yamauchi Shogunate and the enactment of the Fukkatsu reforms led to revisions in the UCMJ, with the introduction of new categories of offenses that can be prosecuted under the General Article 888 of the UCMJ. The UCMJ was further revised in 2010 to further clarify financial crimes and improvements to sections regarding sexual assault.

As Shōgun, Yamauchi Koji oversaw the city-state’s transformation into a developed city-state with a high-income economy under his leadership. Kozakurans enjoy long life expectancies, fastest internet connection speeds, lowest infant mortality rates, and a low levels of corruption. Due to the military rule, its legal system is follows the city-state’s military legal code; the Unified Code of Military Justice. Despite its grip on power, the Shogunate has allowed the city-state to hold elections to elect members of the Civilian Consultative Council (Japanese: 民管詩文評議会, Minkan shimon hyōgi-kai), part of the Fukkatsu reforms by Yamauchi Kōji.

Before the Fukkatsu Reforms, the city-state was divided into several districts controlled by Director-Generals which controlled specific economic or military areas. In 1978, then-Director-General Yamauchi Koji received support from the other director-generals and overthrew the Bakufu of Sakurada Kazuyuki.

The new Bakufu of Koji Yamauchi brought sweeping reforms across the city state, combining the ten pre-reform districts into three large districts and within the districts are 35 wards. Geographic borders of these wards and districts are based on the major arterial roads.

Included in the political reforms of the Fukkatsu (Japanese: 復活, lit. Revival), is the formation of the Civilian Consultative Council. Its role is to legislate edicts, scrutinise and investigate all matters concerning the city-state.

The country’s executive leadership is made up of three individuals. The Tennō and Kampaku were part of the executive leadership, but are effectively without powers as the military takeover has deprived them of any meaningful political power. Shōgun Yamauchi Hideki is the incumbent leader of the Yamauchi bakufu, he succeeded his father, the preceding Shōgun, Yamauchi Koji, after his death in January 2007.

The current Bakufu is made up of civilian and military members appointed by Shōgun Hideki Yamauchi in February 2007.

Judicial System

Kozakura's legal system is the Unified Code of Military Justice (軍事司法の統一規範, Gunji shihō no tōitsu kihan), the Kozakuran Armed Forces' military justice system. It has been in place since 1951 following Kozakura's defeat in the Great War. Post-war developments led to the previous civilian-led functions of the government were superseded by the governing organs established by the Sakurada Shogunate. The 1978 Coup, the rise of the Yamauchi Shogunate and the enactment of the Fukkatsu reforms led to revisions in the UCMJ, with the introduction of new categories of offenses that can be prosecuted under the General Article 888 of the UCMJ. The UCMJ was further revised in 2010 to further clarify financial crimes and improvements to sections regarding sexual assault.

The head of the military justice system is the Judge Advocate General (裁判官法廷将軍, Saibankan hōtei shōgun) which also serves as a legal advisor for the Shogunate and serves in the Bakufu as the Head of Judicial Authority.

Re-established under the Fukkatsu reforms, the Courts Martial of Kozakura (小桜の軍法会議, Kozakura no gunpō kaigi) are independent and impartial tribunals and their hearings are open to the public. The UCMJ also provides the right for the prosecution and the offender convicted by the court martial to appeal decisions to the Military Court of Criminal Appeals.
