"Selucia is the most communist nation without being communist"
The new Consul de Selucia emphasizes her ideas for this new legislature, recognizing that she never expected to become Head of Government, and encourages other nations to join the Gene and Seed Vault Project Treaty


Image

Sertoria Paenula, 50, admits that she was surprised by the call from Consul Seneca at two in the morning.

"The first thing he told me as soon as I picked up the phone was that if I would agree to be by his side as Consul de Selucia. I thought he was referring to me in the face of the next elections. However, he confirmed that that same morning he would dismiss Fadia Nemesius as a result of her attempt to act on her own with the call for the referendum. He told me to think about it but he wanted to have a name for the morning, so I decided and accepted the position. "


Thus begins Mrs. Paenula to tell the story of how she has become the new Consul of Selucia after the fall from grace of Fadia Nemesius. Of Cyamus Seneca affirms that he is a person "with a brilliant mind", and that she would be delighted to work many years alongside him.

"He has a great project for Selucia, and he wants to surround herself with the best to carry it out."


Asked about her affiliation to the Communist Party of Selucia, integrated within the COSIRA coalition, she affirms that it does not suppose "any problem" to recognize herself as such.

"In Selucia, fortunately and unlike in many other countries, we do not see communism as something bad or dangerous. For our citizens, all different political ideologies are welcome, as long as minimum levels of human rights and dignity are respected. That is the requirement we have. For the rest, in Selucia you can be of the ideology you want, that nobody is going to judge you for it. Besides, I myself consider that Selucia is the most communist nation that exists without being a communist. Here, companies are obliged to negotiate with workers, who also have a great weight in their governing bodies. Here, taxes and fines are proportional to the income one has. Here, the national parliament is made up of members of the civil society, and it is them who decide which laws are passed and which are not. We have a referendum law, we have wealth redistribution, aid to the primary sector, subsidies for a large number of issues ... and all of this being a world economic power, avoiding several world crises, with negligible unemployment data and being one of the countries where its citizens enjoy the greatest rights and freedoms. I think I'm not exaggerating when I say that the Selucian model is one of Terra's most successful. "


However, Mrs. Paenula also believes that "they have to put the batteries" during this term, so that the public "is not demotivated with us."

She was one of the people present at the failed Kaliburg Conference trying to negotiate with Malivia, and also one of those responsible for the resignation of the former Defense Minister after leaking her chat with ex-military personnel.

"There is no one in their right mind in our nation who recognizes the territorial claims of Malivia as true. However, you have to know how to deal with this matter. And there are people who did not understand it that way and therefore could not continue in this government. Selucia's position on this matter has not changed in the slightest, and we will continue to defend historical veracity above all else.".


Regarding the Gene and Seed Vault Project, that has become strong once again after the creation of its international treaty, Consul Paenula has encouraged more nations to join it.

"At the moment, 22 nations are to become ratifiers of the treaty. That is great news, but I think more nations should become involved. We are talking about the preservation of our own world, and this is an issue veryone should care about. This treaty doesn't talk about politics, but about the world we want to give our children, and the children of our children."

COSIRA keeps turning left
The defeat of Diniarchus Marsallas, of a more moderate profile, against Venus Petronax in the primaries of the Olerian federation for the next elections accentuates this change


Image

Traditionally, Olerian Dawn has been the federation that has taken the lead on the most progressive issues within COSIRA. However, since the election of Cyamus Seneca as general secretary and the successive elections of Olympio Celer-Loukas first and Diniarchus Marsallas later as regional secretaries of the party brought a curious paradox: that the traditionally more leftist federation was led by people less leftist than the person who was occupying the general secretary. So since 4906. However, the primaries held earlier this year to determine who would be the candidates for the regional and general elections have fixed this: Diniarchus Marsallas, partner of the current Consul de Selucia Cyamus Seneca, has been defeated by his current Minister of Health, Venus Petronax, by a surprising 38-62%.

Mrs. Petronax, 38, a doctor in virology, is affiliated with the Olerian Communist Party, integrated within Olerian Dawn, and until the next elections she manages the Oleria Health Council since the last legislature. After her election, she has said that for the elections she will present some "very interesting" proposals that may "be very popular with Olerian citizens", but she has still refused to reveal what they are until the beginning of the electoral campaign. On the Malivia issue, the new regional secretary is also betting on a stronger hand, but she believes that for now "it is best to ignore it as long as it does not escalate to bigger words."

At the moment, all the polls point to a new overwhelming victory for the party on the island, but it remains to be seen whether with greater or lesser success than her predecessors.

Hovering over political equality: an analysis of parity in Selucian governments

Image
Angela Comitina, newly elected Consul of Selucia, speaking at an international summit

An independent study by the University of Victoria related to gender parity in successive Selucia governments since the restoration of democracy has revealed an interesting fact, which not many nations on Terra can match: Selucia is one step away from achieving that there have been more women than men in positions of political power.

Since its return to democracy in 4807, there have never been fewer than 4 women holding ministerial portfolios (these being the governments of Adad-Marsyas (MTS and COSIRA), Gennadius-Marsyas (MTS and COSIRA) and Medullinus-Flavonius (MTS )), while there have been three governments with four men and one with only three male ministers.

As in all democratic restorations, it seems that women are always required more to achieve positions of power, and this is also palpable in the governments of Selucia. Although the first Consul of democracy was a woman, Naevia Cosmas, and there have only been three tandems of Consuls that have not been made up of at least one woman, the average number of women during the first governments oscillated between 5 and 6. However, with the Bellator-Calogerus government things began to change course.

Atia Gavia Bellator, who ruled first as the main Consul and later as Consul elected by his colleague Bacchis Celer-Priscian, made that of the eight ministries that corresponded to her party (COSIRA) in the coalition government with the MTS, six went to female ministers. The MTS, for its part, elected three more, bringing the figure to a total of 9, making this government one of the two with the largest number of women in Selucia (the other being the Seneca-Narses government, also from COSIRA). Since that time, all the governments of Selucia, mostly led by COSIRA, have had the same or greater number of women than men in their ministries, gradually turning the initial statistics until reaching the current point, with the newly launched government of Angela Comitina. In total, 123 men and 117 women have held ministries, a difference of only 5 people that could perfectly change, at the current rate, during the next legislature.

However, the figures between ministries are uneven. The ministry that has been occupied by the most women is, by far, that of Internal Affairs, with a total of 16 women, followed by the ministries of Environment, Infrastructure, Health and Science. On the contrary, the ministry in which the fewest women have been at the fore is that of Justice, with only 6 women serving as Praetor Civilis of Selucia.

Image

Selucia is one of the nations that, consistently over time, ranks among the nations with greater rights for racial minorities, the lgbt community or women. Many members of these successive governments have openly expressed their sexual orientation, and in most of them there has always been a member of some Selucian minority represented. In her inauguration speech, Consul Angela Comitina once again emphasized the nation's commitment to the rights of all citizens, and made her particular objective the intention of "continuing to maintain Selucia as a pioneer in equality policies." .

Traditionally, from the most reactionary sectors, women are told that their place is in the home, in caring for their children, in their position as mothers. In other places, women are allowed to occupy relatively high positions of power, but as long as they do not disturb. In Selucia, women are able to reach the position they want, such as in politics, within such important ministries as external affairs, internal affairs, health or education, or the Head of Government. And as in politics, Selucian society thinks so, and so defends it: a real equality of opportunities for all our citizens, regardless of their characteristics.

More than 400 senators ask the government by letter to present its plan against poverty
A total of 427 members of the Senate of Selucia urge the government to propose to vote the announced plan against poverty, details of which have not yet transpired

February 4957

Image
August Milena Servia, one of the 427 signatories of the letter to the Government

It will be almost ten years since the government of Angela Comitina came to power. In her opening speech, the Consul de Selucia mentioned that one of her plans was one of the main priorities to develop a regulation to tackle the poverty levels of Selucia in the best possible way. However, the Senate is still waiting even for a draft of that regulation, of which the state in which it is is not even known.

Today, 427 of the 750 senators have sent a letter to the Executive in which they request information on this plan, and urge the government to put it to a vote "as soon as possible."

"It is not understood that something that was announced as" top priority "is now almost ten years late to be known. This government must show, at least, a draft of this law, which is necessary."


The truth is that within the government itself the voices that ask to address this issue at once are growing day by day. According to internal sources, the ministers of foreign and internal affairs, health, education and science have already expressed their discomfort to the Consul Comitina for the breach of the electoral promise. In fact, within the government they fear that the next step for the Senate, if they do not present this new law soon, will be the presentation of a motion of no confidence, on which more than a hundred senators have already expressed themselves in favor.

At the moment, neither of the two Consuls has ruled on this matter, but major movements are expected in the coming days.

The Senate knocks down the Comitina government proposal
The Praetor de Oleria announces the convocation of an urgent Federal Committee to replace her at the head of the party and call new elections under accusations of electoral non-compliance

January 4962

Image
Consul Angela Comitina after the failure of her first investiture vote

He was warned, and despite the fact that it was not a motion of censure and that new Senators were elected after the elections a few months ago, Angela Comitina seems that she will not be able to start a third term as head of the Selucian government.

Today the first investiture vote was held in which Angela Comitina has asked to have the confidence of the Senate again, but her words have fallen on deaf ears. Among other things, senators have reminded her of the failure to fulfill her previous electoral promises, the accommodation of her government to her position, or the continued omission of attempts by senators from previous legislatures to get her to appear in the House. . Mrs. Comitina has taken the blame and has announced a turnaround in her prospective government, but her words have not convinced the senators. At the time of the vote, the Senate has refused to give a new mandate to Angela Comitina, knocking down her government proposal by 527 votes against and only 223 in favor of her.

After this setback, the session has been suspended pending that Mrs. Comitina present a new proposal to the Chamber. It has been a long time since the Senate denied the formation of a government to an elected candidate, and there are already voices within COSIRA that ask Mrs. Comitina to leave her. Among those voices is that of the most powerful federation of the party, commanded by Praetor de Oleria Leonidas Adjutor, who believes that
"Angela [Committee] made electoral promises that she later did not fulfill. No one can question my loyalty to the acronym. of this party, but above all, my loyalty lies with our citizens. And if something is not fulfilled, we must be consistent with it. "


These harsh words have preceded his announcement of the convocation of the Federal Committee of the party, in which the proposal to replace Mrs. Comitina by himself is expected to go ahead.

Within the party, this announcement has caught some by surprise, but not a large part of the Federal Committee, which had already been informed of it.
"If he had not known in advance that he had the necessary support to replace Comitina, Leonidas [Adjutor] would never have taken the step of convening a Committee to dismiss her"
says one of the Committee members.

It is expected that, once the election of the new general secretary has been approved - which must later be submitted to the vote of the party bases - Mr. Adjutor will send a petition to the Senate to dissolve himself and call new elections, so that he, when the In this case, he is elected as the new Consul and can propose a new government that is approved by the Senate.

Leonidas Adjutor secures a favorable majority
The new secretary general of COSIRA after replacing Angela Comitina receives the support of the Senate to form a new government

July 4826

He said it, and he did it. The COSIRA federal committee approved the dethroning of Angela Comitina as secretary general of the party after a series of electoral breaches, and after temporarily appointing the Praetor de Oleria to the position, the party's membership ratified it with almost 80% of the votes. He then summoned the Senate to ask for an electoral advance, which the Chamber approved. In these elections, the citizens of Selucia ratified Mr. Adjutor as the new Consul of Selucia by an overwhelming majority, and his electoral partner Umbria Cotta as his Co-Consul.
With the legitimacy of the elections, Leonidas Adjutor proceeded to present his government to the new Senate that emerged from the elections, and this new Adjutor-Cotta government seems that this afternoon will receive the approval of the Senate to enter into operation.
Among the priorities of this new government, made up of 10 women and 4 men, is the so-called Law against Poverty, one of the main reasons why the Comitina government crisis occurred, and that Mr. Adjutor hopes not to. be repeated with your government.
In statements to the press after his statements in the Senate, Mr. Adjutor has stated that the replacement of Angela Comitina was "necessary" because his figure had accumulated too much political wear. "
"Without a doubt, Mrs. Comitina is to be thanked for her vocation of public service. However, there comes a point where your permanence in power is more harmful than beneficial. Despite being at the forefront in many things, Selucia was getting stuck. , and we cannot allow that to happen. Changes were necessary, and that is what I intend to do. "

The left returns to Selucia
After a period of instability in the nation after the internal disputes that ended COSIRA, a new alternative resurfaces

August 4985

Image
Ballio Caesar Neneus, elected General Secretary of the brand new ICY

Disputes within COSIRA over the ideological course to take, ending up taking a toll on the party heir to the historic In Marea, and eventually leading to its dissolution. From that moment, instability took hold of Selucia, in a period that seems to be coming to an end now.

With the help of the former Consulates of Selucia Hegio Cyamus Seneca and Leonidas Adjutor, who had their differences in the past, this afternoon the new party that hopes to bring together the entire left-wing vote in the country has been presented. Under the name of Inoboediens Patria (Unsubmissive Homeland, or ICY), its founders hope to carry out more ambitious left policies than those carried out during the last decades of COSIRA's government, and which were partly responsible for its final disaster.

Under a collective leadership structure and with a single general secretary elected by the voters every four years, the party will openly bet on positions closer to communism, as well as social republicanism, green politics or secularism.

The newly elected first secretary general of the party, the long-time Selucia activist Ballio Caesar Neneus, has stated that he is "very excited about the project," and hopes to convey the same illusion to potential party voters.

"In Selucia we can be proud of being one of the nations with the greatest democratic history in the world. And among many things, I believe that this allows us to show the public in a closer and free of prejudice and stigma the communist ideology, that I personally believe that it can be of great benefit to all the citizens of this country. It is necessary to reillusion all the citizens, and obtain their confidence to be able to introduce the reforms that this country needs. "


Image
Logo of the new party

Along with his presentation, Mr. Caesar Neneus has shown the logo of the match, in which three stars in red, green and purple colors are observed along with a series of concentric circles.

"The three stars represent the three basic pillars of this party: the red of socialism and communism, the green of green policies and the purple of feminist and secular policies. For their part, the airwaves are intended to represent the transmission of these ideologies to the whole of citizenship. "


Although there are a couple of years until the elections, from the new party they trust that this time will serve to strengthen them as an option among the citizens.

Terrorist alert in Selucia
Following the publication of the ideological guidelines of Unsubmissive Homeland, an ultrareligious group calls to prevent the attack on religion in "any way possible"


Less than a year before the holding of new elections in Selucia, an unexpected risk has loomed over its inhabitants.

After the publication of the main lines of the ideological plan of Unsubmissive Homeland, which according to all the polls are considered the clear winners and its secretary general, Ballio Caesar Neneus, as the undisputed future new Consul de Selucia, a group calling itself "Organitatio Pro Salute Seluciani "(Committee for the Salvation of the Selucians) has issued a statement calling on the people of Selucia to rise up against the" dictatorship of atheism. "

"Brothers who inhabit the lands of Selucia,
For centuries, and even millennia, we have had as leaders citizens who have defended religion better or worse in our nation, and some who have openly attacked it. Out of respect for the popular will, many of us have had to keep quiet and put up with discrimination towards a part of society simply for knowing what is the way of truth, the way of the salvation of our souls. But now, with the likely arrival of the so-called "Unsubmissive Homeland" party to power, our rights and freedoms are more at risk than ever. Despite being heir to In Marea and COSIRA, none of those parties had made public what ICA intends: to end every vestige of religion in our land. And we cannot allow this to happen. Therefore, we call again on all our brothers to rise up against the dictator, to prevent him from coming to power, by all possible means. "


Although this group has not made the religion they defend public, what worries the institutions is the probability of a bomb attack on voting day, for which the security forces have already confirmed that they will double the necessary resources to guarantee the security of the vote. However, this fact may influence citizen participation in the elections of one of the nations characterized by its greatest democratic history.

Mr. Caesar Neneus has called on the population to "not be intimidated" by such threats, he has asked for "trust" in the intelligence services to detect what he has already described as "religious terrorists", and has used it to argue in favor of what Unsubmissive Homeland intends: to banish the religiosity of each one to the private sphere.

Selucia chooses the "red path"
Voters of the island nation overwhelming support Ballio Neneus despite bomb threats in the weeks leading up to the elections; he claims that now begins "a new page" for Selucia


Image

Fulfilling the forecasts, Ballio Caesar Neneus became the new Consul of Selucia with more than 95% of the votes counted, along with his partner on the electoral ticket, Paula Culleolus, in a very discreet background.

After a quiet election day, in which the bomb threats of previous weeks and months discouraged many voters from casting their ballot, Selucia will once again have a functional government after the stoppage of the last decade following the dissolution of COSIRA. With his new government already formed and approved by the Senate of Selucia, made up of 10 women and two men, the brand new Consul of Selucia appeared before the media to explain the main lines of action of his government for this first term, which Mr. Neneus hopes that "it is not the last".

In his words, voters have cheered Selucia starting what he himself has called the "red path": the path of communist republicanism, the main ideology of Unsubmissive Homeland. In his statement, he thanked Selucian society for being mature enough to put aside sterile and futile debates about "communism" and "fascism", terms he says are often misused and lightly used to discredit the adversary, and has announced that this new government will work by and for the people, to ensure that "no one is left behind."

The first legislative package of the government has already been approved by the Senate (http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill. ... lid=647861): among its most important points, are the prohibition of the use of noble titles, the establishment of a public healthcare system without the possibility of the existence of private clinics, membership of the State of the commanding heights of the economy and all major industries, the outlawing of the death penalty and physical torture, the prohibition of selective schools, incentives for scientific research, increased workers' rights to strike or integration into reception centers for illegal immigrants.

Mr. Neneus has stated that for his second legislative package he intends to implement a public pension system, greater control over religions or the prohibition of forced marriages, among other measures.

"This government has been working from minute one, because that is what our citizens deserve. In the same way that they work every day to make our country and our society work, so will this government."


Various political analysts agree that, despite being the direct heir of COSIRA and In Marea, none of these had ever taken legislative measures as far to the left as Unsubmissive Homeland has done, and they describe the party as "national-populist on the left" and a breath of fresh air to the Selucian society, stagnant for centuries in progressing little by little, although always meeting the highest standards of democracy and social rights among all the nations of Terra.

Caesar Neneus has also expressed his desire to resume talks with all the Majatra governments, to form "closer ties", and has received in the seat of the government the new Praetors of the Selucia Islands, all of them also belonging to Unsubmissive Homeland.

Unsubmissive Homeland takes back the government
The left-wing party opens the 12th Selucian Republic with victories in the Head of State and Government


April 4997

Image
Newly and first elected Pro-Consul, Licinia Armiger

After a legislature apart from the government, where the conservative Maiorem Conservative Partis won the Headquarters of Government with almost 70% of the votes, the socialcommunists of Unsubmissive Homeland have regained power after the legislative reforms applied by their predecessors.

The MCP government, which thanks to its large majority managed to convince a sufficient part of the Senate, informally established the 12th Republic, after ending the joint Head of State represented by the Senate and returning the Head of Government to a single person, passing citizenship again to elect the Head of State through their votes.

Unsubmissive Homeland, from the beginning reluctant to these changes, has nevertheless ended up surprising, after former Consul Ballio Caesar Neneus managed to be elected as the new Consul (in this case already as Head of State and not of Government) with more than 29 million votes, 61% of the total. In addition, their candidate for the Head of Government, Olerian citizen Licinia Armiger, also reached the Head of Government by obtaining another 60% of the votes, mostly from the island of Oleria and surprisingly from Sadaria, an island with a mainly conservative tendency. .

As soon as the results were known, Mrs. Armiger presented her government proposal to the Senate, which was ratified, thus becoming the first Pro-Consul of the new Republic of Seville.

"The previous government made the decision to withdraw our nation from numerous international treaties, many of them for the protection of minorities or basic rights, and it did so unilaterally, without consulting the opposition. Unfortunately, that is not something we can repair at this moment. However, we can say that this government is going to do everything possible so that no one is left behind, and to protect all those who inhabit our nation "
,

said Mrs. Armiger in her first statements. The Pro-Consul has indicated that she is still working on the government plan for this legislature, but that she hopes that, with the help of the citizens, she "can obtain a second term with even more force."
