The Supreme Republic of Mbasana is a coastal nation on Eura, established after the Euran wars. It consists of a continental part characterised by a dry climate, plains and desert, and the island of Gabuto. The main population of the country is of Northern Euran descent, especially from the region of Kumar, which is regarded as a sacred and mythical place by the Mbasani people.

History

The country was established following the Euran war, when a fight for independence ensued. Since its establishment, the country has been in a perpetual state of civil war, with the currently ruling Mbasana People's Party feuding with the main opposition,

Mbasana's Supreme President, Paul Lamola

the Liberation Front of Mbasana. The country can be characterised as a dictatorship, with full government control exercised by Supreme President Paul Lamola. The Mbasana People's Party rose to power following a coup d'etat that overthrew previous President David Abele.

Government

Officially, Mbasana is a parliamentary republic, with an executive Supreme President. However, in practice, the Glorious People's Assembly is merely a farce. The unicameral parliament is elected every four years by the Mbasani population. Reports of election fraud and intimidation of voters are common, and it is no surprise that the governing Mbasana People's Party has a supermajority of 587 out of 723 seats. Smaller parties, aside from the Liberation Front of Mbasana, which is banned from participating in elections, are the Communist Party of Mbasana, the Panther Fist Party and the Khanate Party, which represents the Babkhi minority in the nation.

Economy

The economical situation of Mbasana is dire, with almost half of the population being unemployed and living in slums. Largest employer in the country is the Glorious People's Army, the militia alligned with the MPP. Although Mbasana ranks among the poorest countries on Micras, it is home to large natural resources such as gold, diamonds and oil. However, due to habitual corruption and bad deals with foreign companies, the people of Mbasana do not profit from this. Aside from natural resouces, the country is one of the largest exporters of beer, most commonly Twogo Beer, internet scamming and prostitution. This fact led economic minister Obaj Buro to describe Mbasana's economy as "vibrant, innovative and lassaiz-faire, the dream of every entrepreneur."

Foreign relations

Since independence the country has experienced frequent raids by slave traders operating under the banner of the Raspur Khanate, who are ranging far to the west in search of unguarded communities to plunder.
