The Federation borders [[Helslandr]], [[Nakosa]] and [[Vistaraland]]. Geographically, the country is diverse with a large mountain range in the Northern-East and plains across the Southern-West, along the coast of Guilder.

The country is primarily made up of several twelve major ethnic groups and thirty-four minor ethnic groups. Originally was made up of only four, during the time of the [[Queendom of Lapérouse]] however after the Socialists victory in the civil and unification war. The Federation established several mass immigration programs, starting in the 1930s which greatly changed the demographics of the country, including species, ethnic group, religion and so forth.

''Main article: [[Politics of the Federation]], [[Federal Government of Lapérouse]], and [[Elections in Lapérouse]]''
The Federation is a [[Monarcho-Socialism|Monarcho-Socialist]], multi-ethnic federation, with the ceremonial monarch as the head. The Prime Minister is the head of government, and defacto head of state while the ceremonial head of state is the monarch of the [[Norgsveltian Crown Realm|Crown Realm]]. Côtois constitution requires that there be a Vice-Directing Chair from the [[Côtois Combined Armed Forces]] which would assume the powers of the Federal Prime Minister incases where the FPM is unable to fulfill her duties but only incases of war or emergencies. The Federal Prime Minister, can at will create, remove and appoint new ministries or ministers.
There are three legislative houses within the parliament, making it a rare tricameral system. Post-2024 reforms, the three chambers are as followers Chambre Populaire Régionale (''[[Codexian]]: Chamber of Regional People''), Chambre des Voix Directes (''[[Codexian]]: Chamber of Direct Voices''), and the Chambre des Ethnies (''[[Codexian]]: Chamber of the Ethnicities''). In addition to the legislative houses, there are smaller petite legislative houses for niche but considered to be important issues. Chambres de Noblesse (''[[Codexian]]: Chamber of Nobility'') and Section Religieuse (''[[Codexian]]: Religious Section''). Nobles have been completely disempowered, and as outline in the constitution nobility exists to only service cultural, religious needs of the people. Nobles had their wealth and estates seized after the [[Unification War]], but petite nobility are assigned to 'historical districts' while Jarlnjas are assigned a 'historical estate' which Jarlnjas are required to host events for the petite-nations of the Federation and the Federal government. Examples of these events being on Petite Prime Ministers inaugurations.
The government has a typical tripartite branches of government with a strict checks and balances system as outline by the constitution of the Federation as well the [[Monarcho-Socialism|Monarcho-Socialist]] doctrine. The Federation, post-2024 reforms is comprised of 16 states called Petite-Nations and a single city state of [[Caenfjord]]. Policy issues that are not seen in the preview of the Federal constitution, are seen as Petite-Nations affairs and as a result can have wide jurisdictions in law.
The Federal Prime Minister has ultimate authority, able to form committees made up from members of the parliament to write laws that can write, strike down, suspend or change federal laws. The FPM has the right, to arrest and imprison any person deemed to be a threat to the country, crimes against socialism or sapientkind without trial for any length of time as outline in the constitution after 1936 crisis. This is often referred as the [[Red Sickle Notice]], and in practice was only ever truly used by FPM [[Léonce Fontaine]] to a wide affect. With most FPMs historically rarely ever issuing Red Sickle Notices out, and only for extreme cases that could be politically as well diplomatic be worth the risk of issuing out orders. In the same case for use of committees to enforce political changes, as it is seen in Côtoise culture as a tool only to be used in extreme cases or gridlock, other was using such committees is viewed as being weak and being a failure as a leader. In Côtois political tradition, the Federal Prime Minister position is a life-long position though there is no law or part of the constitution that states as such.
Until very recently in 2024, Federation had a dominant political system by the [[Royal Workers' Party]]. The Royal Workers' Party in itself was made up by series of internal factions deliberately created and organized as according to Monarcho-Socialist doctrine of incubation theory. In 2024, the party was 'hatched' or in other words dissolved by the Party's internal congress and pushed by[[Jeanne Pierre]]. The new multi-party system is made-up of ten parties, with originates from the Royal Workers' Party's factions and the Queendom Restoration Party's factions. All of which being economically left, most often [[Rochefortism|Rochefortist]] in nature. Which Monarcho-Socialists point towards, as evidence of the success of incubation theory.
Voting is compulsory for all government elections, including smaller subjects such as mayor elections and city councilors. Voting requirements starts at 16 for Kemonomimi, 25 for elves and 18 for other species within the Federation. Voting in union elections, while not mandatory is heavily suggested by the government. Minor elections (such as Petite-Nation elections) are automatically a holiday, and tend to be held on Fridays. Federal elections are holidays as well but last for three days and held on the 9th of September every five years.
