Tawuse is the most populous state of the [[Tawusian Cape]], located in Southern [[Arcturia]]. '''<u>(WIP).</u>'''
'''The Republic of Tawuse''', commonly referred to as '''Tawuse''' is the Southernmost nation in [[Arcturia]], bordering [[Vivancantadia]] to the north.
=Provinces and administrative territories of Tawuse=
Consisting mainly of fjords and glacial valleys, major population centres such as its capital '''Altomaré''' are located near the coast. Tawusian territory is comprised of the southern tip of [[Arcturia]] accompanied by the island of '''[[Paradis]]''' off the western coast.
'''Tawuse''' consists of four provinces. Listing in descending order in terms of population:

[[File:Tawusian Provinces.png|left|thumb|253x253px|The four provinces of Tawuse. ]]

Every four years, Tawusians elect representatives to the National Congress and the National Risolveré. The National Congress, which acts as a lower house, consists of 150 seats, each elected within an administrative constituency containing 100,000 people. The National Risolveré contains 30 seats and acts as an upper house. Any bills passed through the congress must be approved by the Risolveré. A Risolvan is elected within a larger constituency of 500,000 people. The only exception to this rule is the island of '''Paradis''', which elects one Risolvan from tribal leaders and three congressmen, one per tribe on the island. However, any vote within the congress has the three representatives vote as one, with an internal vote of 2/3 needed for each outcome. Abstainations aren't allowed within the Congress or Risolveré. More on [[Tawusian elections]] can be seen elsewhere.

However, large coal and precious metal deposits are prompting the revival of previous settlement plans.

Provinces are given devolved powers, each containing their own regional provincial congress. However, each province elect representatives to the National Congress and Risolveré. Although governmental sectors such as education and health are centralised, devolved powers include the ability to designate funding for infrastructure and internal management of subsidies.

The administrative territory of '''[[Paradis]]''' was not given the title of province mainly due to the lack of development within the island. Left mainly untouched, lupine villagers are governed under the authority of '''Centro''' due to the province being closest to the island. '''[[Paradis]]''' doesn't elect members of a regional congress but have the ability to elect representatives to represent Paradisian concerns within both the National Congress and Risolveré. One representative for the island in the Risolveré and a three representatives being leaders of the three lupine tribes to represent tribal matters in the congress.

Climate

Located in the far south of Arcturia, Tawuse's climate is frigid and unforgiving. Due to this, agricultural efforts have been largely unsuccessful with the exception of the more northern reaches of the country. Dry year round, cold winters are followed by mild summers. Summer sees slightly more precipitation.
