'''Kelssek''' is a large, economically-developed country located in {{region|the East Pacific}}, in the northeastern portion of the continent of Yasteria. A nation of soaring mountains, vast wilderness, natural beauty and frigid winters, Kelssek has two coasts on the Pacific Ocean and on the icy Aurora Sea. Its population of approximately 150 million is easily stereotyped as a bunch of bilingual commie sports nuts, but Kelssek defines itself as a multicultural, immigrant society whichwith isopen consequentlyimmigration onepolicies ofand thean world'sinternationalist most cosmopolitan nationsorientation.
 
Kelssek is a leading tourist destination, drawing well-heeled sophisticates and grizzled adventure-seekers alike to its lively cities, unspoiled wilderness, organic local handcrafted unionized vineyards, and completely epic skiing and mountain resorts. It is also a centre of international media and popular culture; prolifically producing and exporting music, television, film and literature.
Line 192 ⟶ 193:
While there is a strong manufacturing sector, Kelssek's economy remains reliant on its natural resources and agricultural industry. In recent years the tourism sector has also grown dramatically and the city of Kirkenes is a major financial and business hub. Kelssek is noted for its strong environmental laws and its strict enforcement of workplace and product safety laws. More economic freedom is permitted in most consumer goods industries, but all utility, energy, transport and primary industry companies are either nationalized or strictly regulated, many of the nation's largest companies are state-owned, and the government is generally expected by the populace to carefully manage the economy. Worker ownership grew immensely during Kieran Pearson's government but stagnated from the 1980s before being once again encouraged by the current Cressey government. Most unions are members of the Trades Union Congress and combined, organized labour controls about a third of the economy through equity stakes. There is also a relatively high rate of domestic savings and investment; the economy remains relatively closed off from global capital markets.
 
Kelssek's main industries are manufacturing, tourism, agriculture and natural resources. With its educated, skilled workforce Kelssek has built a large skill-based manufacturing sector, with a very large civilian aerospace industry with [[Celestar Aerospace]] among the world's largest builders of commercial airliners. Microelectronics, motorcycles, automobiles and consumer electronics are the other main manufacturing products, while aluminium, iron ore, and uranium are major primary products. Meats, grains, dairy products and tree fruits (apples, pears, peaches, etc.) are the main agricultural products while KelssekianKelssek beer, wines, and liquors are also important exports.
 
===Transportation===
Kelssek enjoys a modern network of public transportation infrastructure. Cities have traditionally maintained well-funded mass transit networks, which are generally the primary means for commuting in most KelssekianKelssek cities. Railway networks and airports provide connections between cities. Road highways are primarily a provincial responsibility, however road development has not generally been a priority of transportation policies, with rail being preferred for covering long distances. Many small remote communities, especially in the west and northwest, also rely entirely on air links for transport. The [[Velocit]] high speed railway, which began operations in 2009, is the newest addition to Kelssek's transportation network and operates international passenger services to [[Vekaiyu]] with the completion of the Yasteria line in 2017.
 
==People and culture==
Kelssekians in general are socially liberal, egalitarian, and secular (if not outright atheist). KelssekianKelssek society is mostly free of stratification, particularly economically, extremes of either wealth and poverty are virtually non-existent, although social class distinctions do persist somewhat. Furthermore, the individualism of liberal socio-political philosophy tends to be regarded quite negatively; as a result there is a moderately assimilationist insistence that new arrivals should becometo "partsome ofextent adopt Kelssek's national identity and values - the collective"nature of which is a topic of frequent debate but invariably includes egalitarianism, respect for nature, and scaring foreigners with exaggerated stories about winter and bears. The high prairie region (Lupinissia and Roites) has a notably distinct culture based in somethe history of the Ayushirdan nomadic waypeoples.
 
The majority of Kelssek residents are Caucasian and the second-largest ethnic group of East Asians makes up about 20%. A substantial number of people consider themselves of mixed ethnicity. Kelssek's immigration policy encourages immigrants to preserve their traditions and unique cultures, but to identify with the nation as a whole and with Kelssek's national identity and values - the nature of which is a topic of frequent debate but invariably includes egalitarian values, respect for nature, and scaring foreigners with exaggerated stories about winter and bears.
 
'''Ethnic breakdown'''
*Caucasian: 54%
**British Isles origin: 36%
**French origin: 12%
**other Caucasian: 7%
*Asian: 19%
*African: 8%
*Arab: 4%
*Mixed background: 14%
 
===Sports===
Sports play a very important role in KelssekianKelssek culture and major sporting events are liable to paralyze the country. Hockey is Kelssek's unofficial national sport and enjoys almost universal popularity, while rugby is also popular throughout the nation, though to a lesser degree. Football (soccer), water polo, tennis, lacrosse, curling and wintersports in general are also very popular. There is also a very lively extreme sports scene, especially skateboarding, with Kelssek home of some of the world's most well-known skaters. Kelssekians take full advantage of the country's long winters and rugged mountains, making skiing and snowboarding popular activities, while wakeboarding is also popular in the coastal provinces.
 
The major professional sports leagues include the [[Kelssek Hockey League]] for ice hockey, the [[Rugby Superleague]] for rugby union, the [[Kelssek Water Polo League]], and the [[Kelssek Football League]] for soccer. Professional national competition also exists for lacrosse, swimming, curling, alpine skiing, and motorcycle racing, among other sports.
Line 223 ⟶ 212:
 
===Religion===
Religion plays a very tiny role, if at all, in KelssekianKelssek society, and a majority of Kelssekians consider themselves to have no religion. Under the constitution, Kelssek is a secular state. Religion is considered a private matter and public expressions of religion are unusual, to the point of being socially unacceptable. Christianity is the most common religion, followed by Buddhism and Islam.
 
===Language===
Anglian and Frankish are the official languages, but a multiplicity of languages are spoken throughout the country. There are notable Cambrian and Eireann language communities in central Noua Cymru, southern Etnier, and Kewatin.
English and French are the official languages, but a multiplicity of languages are spoken throughout the country. English, the most widely spoken language, is also the common language for communication between the different language groups in Kelssek, while the government of Beaulac promotes French as the basis of ''interculturalisme Beaulacois'' and cultural tensions occasionally erupt from the desire to protect and advance the usage of the French language in the francophone provinces of Beaulac and Roites. Significant immigrant populations speaking many different languages reside in Kelssek. Notable language groups include Japanese, Russian, Hindi, Arabic and Cantonese.
 
===Media===
Line 264 ⟶ 253:
Kelssek is a federation under a system of parliamentary democracy and responsible government. The head of state is the President and the head of the government is the Prime Minister of Kelssek. In practice, the Prime Minister wields executive power as the president's role is by convention mainly ceremonial. Individual rights are protected by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, a constitutional document which empowers the courts to nullify or order remedies for violations of rights by either public or private entities.
 
Kelssekians generally have a left-wing political culture and orientation, and vote in left-wing governments almost by default. The four major political parties are the Green Party, the LiberalAlliance Partyfor Liberty (AfL), formed by a merger between the Liberal and Conservative Partyparties, and the United Communist Party. They are largely divided on the lines of economic ideology, with both the Liberal and Conservative partiesAfL supporting the existence of capitalism and a market-based economy, albeit to quite differing degrees; the UCP seeking to abolish private business as a long-term goal but supporting socialist policies in the short term, and the Greens ontaking thean fence,ambivalent drifting"sustainable betweengrowth" semi-capitaliststance socialthat democracyprioritizes environmental protection and fullconstraining socialismconsumerism. The 2010 election saw a breakthrough by the Beaulac nationalist party Bloc Beaulacois and it has gained a strong but stagnant share of the vote.
 
===Federal government===
Line 275 ⟶ 264:
Elections for the House of Commons must be held at least once every four years, and for the Congress of the Federation every six years. The leader of the party which has the most seats in the House of Commons generally becomes the Prime Minister and is the head of government. He or she then selects the Cabinet from members of their own party or an allied party who are by convention elected members of the House of Commons. The government must resign if it loses a vote of confidence, a situation in which the President decides either to call an early election or to appoint as Prime Minister another MP who is able to gain the House's confidence.
 
Kelssek's head of government is Prime Minister [[AnneRosaline Marsha CresseyHendrie]] of the [[UnitedAlliance Communistfor PartyLiberty]], which formedgoverns ain minoritycoalition government followingwith the 2018Green general electionParty.
