Mursland

Mursland, officially The Royal Confederation of the Mursland Provinces, is a   state in South Central Artemia, with a population of around 11.268.000. It borders Lusjki to the north, Propyrgia in the east and the Belpecian Gulf to the south and west. The capital city is Brixivo.

The nation finds its history back until 1798, with the formation of the Bond of the Mursland Countries as originally a defensive pact. It became an unified nation in 1824 after the Great Union War. After the formation, it was a war state for much of the following half-century with many of the neighbores in direct the region, which ended with the annexation of the Princedom of Nai (large parts of modern day Over-Yr) in 1866 and a royal marriage with the Kingdom of Traxí in 1870, which putted both nations in a personal union. After having gained control of most of the region, the Confederation started to focus on unifiying its subjects, developing the economy, and progressing its warbased economy to a civil economy.

The Confederation has an and is. Their main industrial export constists mainly of automotive products, precision machining, and electrotechnical machines. Besides that, the state is also known for their, fielding some of the highest ranking engineering schools on the continent.

Pre-Bond history
...

Bond of the Mursland Countries
''Defencive pact of Bonamech, 'South-Lotana', Rysech and parts of Thisovia. Defensive war against Nai (North Lotana+ Upper-Nai) in 1808; result is status quo. Crisis of Stratonpolis (1811) where the bond protects the city-state from Traxi, which resulted into a trade agreement. Stratonpolis joins in 1812.''

''On the Congress of Brixivo in 1814, it was decided to formalize the bond with a trade agreement and somewhat unifying laws. Heleovo-Visia also joins the party, because it is economically dependant on Lotana. ''

The Great Union War (1820-1824)
''Another war with Nai ánd a rough nation (I have not yet designed but most likely outside my borders?). Very bloody war, with the oposing force having a well trained army. However, the Union manages to pull their differences aside and form a big army that wins. With the victory, parts of north Lotana added to Lotana, Circe becomes a thing, Army reforms are pushed thru.''

''Forms personal union of Traxi and Bonamech. (1870)''

Industrial investments(?)
In an attempt to keep up with regional powers, the king NAME decided to invest into many infrastructure projects and constructed many factories

Scandal royal house (?)
...

As a result of this, the government decided to decrease the power of the royal house in the nation. Many of the holdings of the king were nationalized, such as the Confederate Railway Company, UIMF and Brixivo Docks, as well as many large swatches of land, such as the majority of Royal-Traxí.

Social reforms
As the government realized that socialism was on the rise, attempts for concession were made. One of such was the Act of Factory Workers Protection of 1899, which saw the creation of the Vehicle Construction Safety Union (Koli Stroiteli Zashtita Suuyuz), who attempted to improve workers working conditions across the nation on an unified level. However, the negotiations quickly stranded in a stalemate due to many different regional standards (for example, factories in Traxí already demanded better payment, while in Nai, workers desired higher safety standards). By 1902, the union was effectively disassembled without making any progress.

Another reform was the Act of Scholar Assembly of 1900, which saw the creation of the University Assembly Union (UUU), which allowed students and professors across the nation to negotiate better spending. This union saw moderate success politically, but achieved to formalize the educational system and created a degree system with standardized requirements for each degree.

''(minor) Revolt in line with Lusjki's history, in 1926. It is ignited by the Lusjkans, who join the fight, but they overestimate their position and get pushed back. War ends after a few weeks, with Mursland taking territory (Barxia Conflict)''

In the wake of the revolt, the government decided to invest heavily in education. A major motivation for this was the many developments in automation in both agricultural and industrial sectors of the last decades in many of the major powers, such as NATION, NATION and NATION. To motivate studying, the government passed the Act of Education Support, which ensured that every school-going residents over the age of 15 would receive a pay of 500 Pette per month, provided that they would pass the state issued tests. This resulted in a boom of students in secondary education. Much of the costs were supported by privatizing many of the former royal businesses, starting with the railways in 1927, UIMF in 1928, and many other industries from 1930 to 1935.

Modern period (1950-now)

1957-1979 : relations sour with Lusjki as Maltin Luga gets into power

In the 1959 elections, the Konfederatsiya Liberalni Duurzhavi (KLD) party under Agatha Metaxas manages to get a record 79 of the 167 seats in the national government, while Ambrosius Plovina was elected as State-President for the KLD. This was the result of very successful campaign of Metaxas to reform the process behind the elections. Together with the Reform Union Party and a few unaligned members of government, they changed the constitution to split the elections of the government and State-President in 1961. Metaxas managed stay State-President until the elections of 1970, when the newly formed Frontov Obshtonaroden party scores a victory with 55 seats versus KLD's 52.

Arkady III succession crisis
In early 1964, the health of King Arkady III of Bonamech and Traxí started declining. This caused a succession crisis, as Prince Mihalou the son of Arkady III, was very unpopular among the people. He was fairly young, and was well known to be a "party animal" by the press. By many he was deemed as unsuitable to rule due to a slandering campaign of various anti-royal groups, claiming he would be a repeat of Mihalou II. His younger brother Martin Mihalou was also unsuitable, as at age 6 he was deemed too young; a regency would take up the throne too long. His sister Irena Arkady would also be unsuitable, as that would not only break the, but would also require modifying the law as woman could only inherit if there are no suitable male successor. Another suitable replacement would be the King's brother Arkady Miroslau, as he was of mature age. However, for him to inherit, both sons would have to refuse the title.

When Arkady III's health declined further in oktober, ending up being admitted to the hospital, tensions rose in the government. There was a definite split in what method of succesion was preferred (or succesion at all was desired, as the Katá-Vasiliko party desired a republic). Due to political pressure of Ambrosius Plovina had to resign, as he received various Motions of Distrust by the parliament. In the new elections Stavros Antonis of Katá-Vasiliko was elected.

In Januari, the debate had not changed; a political impasse was created. Looking at the poor health of Arkady III, Agatha Metaxas felt pressured to start the Provincial elections early as well. Stavros Antonis agreed to it, believing the popularity growth his part had seen would mean a clear victory. However, this was not the case and KLD won again. State-President Antonis tried to push a rhetoric of rigged elections, which did not see much response from Katá-Vasiliko or his voters. As a result, he was forced out of his position by the Province-Room with 131 votes of 170.

In the new elections of April 1965, Iliyana Valeriev was elected as State-President. The Parliament could now get a 2/3 majority to disinherit prince Mihalou, and make Arkady Miroslau the heir of the throne. On 12th October 1965, he would succeeds his brother as Arkady IV of Bonamech and Traxí.

Other nameless period
In 1980s, Lusjki-Murs relations have been re-established, Mursland and Lusjki establish trade agreement to assist the latter in their economy.

In 1988, the Confederacy joined the Unaligned Nations Consortium.

On 1st of February 1991, King Arkady IV passed away as a result of a the day before. He was succeeded by King Martin II on the 4th of February, who is the current ruling king.

Geography
Mursland is a coastal nation. The nation is vertically dividable via the the Reismos Mountian range, which geology continues into the island of Visia in the south. The western side of the nation is notable for the Adeiázo Plateau, with its many rivers. The east consists of the Traxí valley, with the large Traxís river.

Along the Phonínikas and Órmos coasts, many sandy beaches can be found, while on the Reimos Peninsula, more rocky beaches can be found.

Climate
The region has for the most part a, with the north of the Traxí valley being classified as.

Nature
The Reismos Peninsula has a great varied vegetation adapted for the dry summers and wet winters. These plants include:, , , , , , and.

In the Traxí valley, the winter temperatures are lower (dropping below freezing point in the north), and the yearly rainfall has been more equalized, albeit dry in the summer months. This has resulted in gradual difference in vegetation between the south and north of the region.

Politics
The current constitution of the Confederate Provinces is from 1962, which is a slightly corrected version of one dating back to 1924. The 1924 constitution was a complete revamp of the 1891 version, and deals with the power of the King relative to the states.

Government
The Confederate Provinces has a federal constitutional monarchy, with an parliament and an independently elected State-President. The parliament, called the Province-Room, is led by the Province-President, whom is selected from the largest party seated in the Province-Room based on the previous elections. The Province-Room is directly elected by popular vote, with each province having his own candidate list (with the exception of the protectorates), which is directly tied with the Provincial legislatures; in other words: members of the parliament are also members of the provincial governments and vice-versa.

The number of seats per province is determined on basis of population size of said province, with one seat per 44000 legal civilians. Provinces with less than 9 seats have additional seats which do not count towards the Province Room, but do count for the government of the Province in question. This is to prevent having too few people ruling over a province resulting in the Head of Province being able to force his decisions. The past few decades, the population of the Confederate Provinces has grown considerably, thus the size of the Province-Room has increased accordingly: currently there are 207 seats.

Both the State-President, Province-Room and Province-President serve 4 years each, with the State and Provincial elections alternating every two years. The constitution is designed to keep the two elections from desynchronizing. In case the State-President or Province-Room resigns, two options are possible: in case the resigning entity has served more than two years the other will be re-elected two years after said resignation. In case the entity has server for less than two years the other will be re-elected one year after said resignation (thus re-elections can be delayed) and the new elections will follow the regular schedule.

Parties
The Confederation of Mursland has a history of many different parties. There can be various levels of organisation between parties, ranging from a centralized institute making a single policy, to various provincial focused parties working together with an agreement over a national policy. Due to the elections having both a national and provincial focus, there are also several parties and one-man listings which do not actively participate in the national government and rather focus their work on their province.

Due to the dynamic nature of balancing national and provincial governing, it is not uncommon to have parties unify or split up to focus better on certain issues. The current oldest party is the Katá-Vasiliko, which has existed in its current form since 1931 after the merger of various parties unbanned in [Year royal scandal+3].

As of March 3rd 2019, there are 6 nationally-unified parties, 4 provincial parties and 3 one-man fractions in the government. The current coalition on national issues consists of the Frontov Obshtonaroden, Edinen Khora and Live!KDM, which hold a majority of 114 on 207 seats. The Province President Filip Maninacis is from the Frontov Obshtonaroden, of which he was formerly the leader, and the State President is Iona Cattiou-Satinnacis from the Konfederatsiya Liberalni Duurzhavi, which currently does not serve in the coalition.

Note: This table only includes unified parties in the Province-Room.

Provinces
The nation is divided into 13 provinces (called Duurzhavi) and an Autonomous Region. Many are based on historical regions, although some borders have been adjusted. These regions are: Each province has its own government, called the Provincial-Order, named after the historical knight orders used for governing in name of the king. As aforementioned, the members of the Provincial Order also serve as members of the nationwide Province-Room; the exceptions to this are Royal-Traxí and The Autonomous Region, which all also have additional members in their Provincial-Orders which do not serve in the Province-Room.
 * Brixivo - The capital city-province, and the second largest city.
 * Plovina - A city-province, the largest city of Mursland, and smallest province.
 * Mopene - An amalgamate of various villages into a large urban province.
 * Central-Traxí - One of the largest provinces and to this day contains many Traxans.
 * Circe - A small agricultural province, most known for its beers.
 * Royal-Traxí - A former crown duchy, now the least populated province.
 * Bonamech - A mountainous province. Home to many Bonians.
 * Thisovia-Nai - A 'gray' province, with high unemployment rate.
 * Upper-Nai - After the city-provinces the most populous province. A heavily urbanized province, contains many important education institutes. Contains many vehicle industries.
 * Rysech - Known for its fishing culture and ship construction.
 * Visia - Encompasses the island in the south, with its native Visian population. A popular tourist location.
 * Heleovo - The most southern mainland province. Largely agricultural region.
 * Lotana - A province with many Barxians.
 * The Autonomous Region - An integrated protectorate, which enjoys various independent organisation.

The political landscapes can differ heavily between provinces. This is often reflected in the policy plans of parties, with some nationally unified parties having multiple parties within a single province for different issues.

Municipalities
There are a total of 198 municipalities in Mursland, with the exception of the The Autonomous Region. Each has its own council for its legislature (often located in the largest settlement in the municipality), which varies in size depending the amount of people living in said municipality.

Legal System
...

Weapons
The legality of weapons, and their definitions, are defined in article 16.4 of the Mursian Lawbook. The laws are very strict when it comes to licensing items, often requiring at least a background check. Firearms, of any kind, are heavily regulated.

Unrestricted weapons are low pressure airsoft guns, knives with blades under 25cm, and any blunt weapon which is required to participate in the relevant sport or activity (e.g. baseball bats, wood cutting axe, etc.). For knives with blades longer than 25cm, a background check has to be made.

Electric shock weapons are restricted in three parts. A direct contact devices (stun guns) are acquirable with only a background check. However, launched electric shock devices (tasers) require licensing and importing restrictions. Any shocking device that can be launched from a not specifically designed device are prohibited for non-professionals.

To obtain and handle a firearm, a background check and licensing has to performed. The firearm in question has to be on the permission list of the local police force. Firearms on the list differ between regions, and may include handguns, bolt-action rifles and pump-action shotguns. Semi-automatic, although not specified to be banned, are currently not mentioned to be on any permission list, therefore effectively prohibited. To own a firearm at home, a training course has to be completed; the device in question will subjected to check-ups with irregular intervals.

By law, total prohibition goes for destructive, incendiary and biochemical weapons, Rocket launchers with explosive payloads and fully automatic firearms.

Economy
Mursland has an.

Generally, Mursland is considered a post-industrial nation, although the actual level of economic development can differ between regions. This is reflected in the, with a score of 43 on 100. Industrial and service workers are relatively well paid thanks to many advances in the protection of the ability to.

However, work in many lower education fields, such as more traditional agriculture and the mining industry, have poor working conditions. This can be traced back to several issues. One of such as the decentralization of the unions (unions tend to be heavily focussed on a single branch, and some times even to only specific regions or ethicalities). Another main reason is the poor negotiation position of the union, as increasing personal costs will impact the competitiveness in the open economy for not only the industries themselves, but also for many of production lines. Also, even though the studies have been disputed by some experts, it appears that many workers tend to refrain from introducing social benefits at their work, as it will result in less wage they can demand, which is favoured by the many impoverished labourers in the regions. Mursland has received many criticism, both national and international, on the working conditions of especially the coper mines in the Autonomous Region.
