The Republic of Megatridimensional Order (commonly known as Megatrine) is a Republic consisting of six states. The northern states are on the Pelagean subcontinent, while the southern states reside on the Libian subcontinent. The Republic is noteable for it's almost devout belief in the power of three. In fact, in legislature, choices posed to the Republic and citizens are not legal unless there are three distinct choices.

In 1798 citizens of Telembria revolted against the strict two-party power structure of Telembrian politics. As a condition of peace, Telembria offered the revolutionaries land in what was known as the Telembrian Wildlands "and beyond" in exchange for an end to the revolution. Over 52,000 citizens accepted the offer and Megatrine was officially founded on January 1, 1799. The governmental structure was put in place by leaders of the revolution, and the first government officials were voted into office on October 31, 1799.

Megatrine's early years were a constant struggle for survival as the national population dwindled. Though an infrastructure had been set in place, the first Megatrine city of Novum was founded on a tract of wetlands unfit for cultivation and later named the Crudumpascor Swamps. With the Telembrians to the north and Satan's Spire impeding exploration to the south, it was widely believed that the Megatrines would revert to Telembrian rule within a decade or less. However, in 1802, explorers from Megatrine succeeded in finding a path around the mountain into the tropical and fertile region of what is modern-day Megatrine.

Finding itself unrestricted, Megatrine rapidly expanded to cover the southernmost portions of Pelagea and well into Libia. In 1835, Megatrine unknowingly extended past the borders of the Viscuito, but subsequently refused to relinquish the land acquired. The ensuing war completely destroyed the Viscuito. The genocide was internationally condemned, eliminating much of the goodwill the young nation had built over the previous decades. Megatrine moved further south in 1852, when it went to war with the Terronian Nation. By the end of the war, Megatrine had expanded further south, and as a result of reported war atrocities, declined further in international status.

Great War placeholder

In 1958, the Megatrine government halted expansion rather than displace the Libarans Nortellus civilization and set its modern day borders.

Internal tension grew between three factions: those advocating further expansion, those demanding an end to expansion, and those wishing to continue to expand but without human rights violations.

In 1964, Megatrine erupted into civil war. In 1966, during the Foreign Purge, the nation abruptly closed borders, expelled all foreigners and essentially cut itself off from contact with the rest of Taijitu. The nation remained dark until it re-opened its borders for the Megatridimensional Economic Summit of 1983.

History

Government and politics

The Megatrine Government Structure

The Megatrine Government structure is a republic structure with legislative, judicial and executive functions meant to strike balance and encourage dealmaking. Proponents contend that the government operates as designed, citing the law making/amending processes and the ability to overcome any single body should that body "deviate from the will of the people." Critics maintain that the Prime Minister, by virtue of control of the Ministry of Psychology and Order Guards, has the advantage, while other critics claim the Presidium, with control of the Military, is overly powerful.

Prime Minister

The Prime Minister (or PM) serves at the top of the Megatrine government. The PM has the responsibility to approve or veto any legislation, and is in charge of conducting all foreign relations. He may sign treaties and declare war, though he must negotiate with the Presidium, which oversees the Megatrine military, on how the treaty or war is to be conducted. The PM also has sole control over the Ministry of Psychology, which, in turn, has control of the Order Guard. The PM is voted into office on a simple majority of Megatrine citizens.

Ministry of Governance

The Ministry of Governance (or MGov) is a three person body responsible for championing the addition of new laws. It serves as the Senate advocate for more laws; they lobby the Presidium and the Prime Minister to approve of bills written in the Senate. The three members of the MGov are Senators voted into office by the Senate once every three years.

Ministry of Equity

The Ministry of Equity (or MEq) is a three person body responsible for championing amendments to existing laws. It serves as the citizen advocate for changing existing laws, and to keep the number of laws from rising or falling; they lobby the Presidium and the Prime Minister to approve of proposed amendments to the law written in either the Senate or the Assembly. The three members of the MEq are voted into office on a simple majority of Megatrine citizens once every three years. Members of the MEq cannot have held a legislative position prior to their election, but may have held office in the Presidium.

Ministry of Autonomy

The Ministry of Autonomy (or MAut) is a three person body responsible for championing the repeal and removal of existing laws. It serves as the Assembly advocate for less laws; they lobby the Presidium and the Prime Minister to approve of repeal proposals written in the Assembly. The three members of the MAut are Assembly legislators voted into office by the Assembly once every three years.

The Presidium

Megatrine Executive Building

The Presidium is a three person body responsible for ensuring that new laws, amendments and repeals are 1) from the proper ministry, 2) if approved, will not conflict with any existing law and 3) the title of any new law or amendment is not ambiguous. The Presidium also ratifies an override of a PM veto, by certifying that the reason for PM veto has been adequately addressed. The three members of the Presidium are voted into office on a simple majority of Megatrine citizens once every three years. Members of the Presidium cannot have held a legislative position prior to their election, but may have held office in the MEq.

The Senate

The Megatrine Senate writes bills for new laws and proposals for amendments to existing laws. They cannot repeal laws. It serves as the citizen advocate for more laws.

The Assembly

The Megatrine Senate writes repeals of existing laws and proposals for amendments to existing laws. They cannot write new laws. It serves as the citizen advocate for less laws.
