Optimus Res Publica
Legal Name: Foedis-e Optimus Res Publica de Etruscan (The Fifth Aristocratic Republic of Etruscan)
Short Name: Optimus Res Publica
Government: Consular Republic
In a Consular Republic, there are two governing bodies; the senate and the executive branch. Aristocrats are the only ones eligible for the position of Senator, and unlike say Samoria, the senate is a highly exclusive club. The two Consuls are the executives of the Optimus Res Publica. The idea is that they function as partners for the betterment of the republic.
The senate needs 2/3 majority to pass resolutions. The Consuls also need this 2/3 support for their proposals to pass. Common proposals are things like more money for war or to declare someone an enemy of the state.
Economy: 100% Capitalist.
Top Industries of Optimus Res Publica
1)Slaves
2)Grain/Other Food Crops
3)Strip Mining
4)Narcotics
5)Luxury Goods
Population: 300 Billion*
125 Billion Humans
105 Billion Samorians
50 Billion Freed (Ex-Slaves)
20 Billion Other
*Slaves not counted
Religion:
Greco-Roman Pagan 50%
Hindu 20%
Christian 20%
10% Other
Citizens of Optimus Res Publica are very respectful of other’s religion. They believe in honoring the gods in their home lands (i.e. honoring god when you are on earth).
History: Etruscan, the highly urbanized capital of Optimus Res Publica, started of as a dead planet. Unknown entrepreneurs terra-formed it with the hopes of selling all the land bit by bit to settlers, making a massive profit. However the planet was located far out of the way of the newly expanding terran empire. The solution was simply, the owners of the planet offered amnesty to fugitives of the Terran Crown. Initialy this turned out to be a very bad idea, as the convicts simply seized the land for themselves. Eventually, after much warring, a Triumvirate of warlords formed. This Triumvirate was eventually thrown out, and the Primoris (First) Res Publica of Etruscan was born. We our now on the Foedis-e (Fith) Res Publica, due to a few power hungry consuls who started civil wars in attempts to establish themselves as emperors.
Motto: Impendo quod Augeo (Expand and Enrich)
Legal System:
