The Pacific Republic

A coalition of California, Washington and Oregon. Splitting from the rest of the United States for political differences, the Pacific Republic is a Socialistic paradise, with the seat of all power in the new country in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles:

The city has grown, ever since California
left the union, the laws of the land have been more inclusionary and socialist
than ever. Immigrants, people of all colors, genders and sexual preferences
live together in a “bubble”. While politically they believe in equality and
peace, they viciously attack anyone with beliefs that differ from their own.
The same is true of the rest of the United States, however, the political
beliefs of these other places are conservative, largely.

Five important locations in Los Angeles:

Hollywood: The center of Liberal Power in the city, this is
where the ideological machine creates media to feed the constituency.

Beverly Hills: The seat of Conservative power in the city.
When California left the union, and Los Angeles became the capitol of the new
country, Wealthy conservatives from Orange County moved to the city to
represent their political beliefs. They are a minority group, and need
protection when in public. Beverly Hills itself has been transformed into more
of an armored fort, than series of wealthy neighborhoods.

Skid Row: Even though California policies are extremely
socialist at heart, there remains a large population of people who either
ideologically oppose the system or are incapable of utilizing it, these people
live in tents in skid row, where they organize rallies and are building a
society of their own, which opposes the populist views of the city and new country
at large.

West Hollywood: Or New Zion, as it’s been coined. Considered
a gay Mecca, people from all over the world come here for the parades, parties
and acceptance. As the rest of the world becomes more violent, distrusting and
abusive to homosexuals, West Hollywood is THE place to be.

Echo Park: The center of Liberal thought. Museums, colleges
and art exhibits litter the area. Organizations like the Center for Liberal
thought, and the Equality Conference were born here. The current president of
California lives here, and there are daily speeches, meetings and scientific
conferences that take place every week.

5 Landmarks:

Hollyworld Sign: The original Hollywood
sign has been replaced, this is considered the California Republic’s Statue of
Liberty.

Walk of Fame: All conservative
names have been replaced with icons of Liberal policy and Fame. Youtube stars
are now included as well as Instagram celebrities. Still a massive tourist
attraction, but it’s become a point of contention between Conservatives abroad
and liberals, and conservatives have constructed multiple walks of fame in
Boston, Nashville and West Atlanta.

Boardwalk (Santa Monica Pier): Becomes
a functional pier once again, welcoming immigrants from other countries to
partake in the riches of the Golden State.

Pasadena Prison: A place where
political dissidents, terrorists and violent criminals are sent to be
reeducated in a state-of-the-art reprogramming facility.

Universal Studios: The most “woke”
theme park ever. You can go on a 7D bus ride with Rosa Parks, walk with Martin
Luther King and build the railroads with your Chinese brethren. Also, the new
Transformers ride, reflecting the newest Transformers movie.

Essential Services and
Infrastructure:

Leadership: The California Republic
is located in the city of Los Angeles, it has 4 branches: The House of
Minorities, the Judiciary, the House of Commons, and the Executive Branch. Each
branch represents a different population group, with a centralized congress
that decides on all matters.

Essentials: Water and Electricity
are provided via Hydro-Electric water processing stations built along the
coast, using the natural movement of the tides, converting thousands of gallons
of saltwater into potable drinking water and electricity cleanly and
efficiently. Wi-Fi is an inalienable human right and is provided by multiple
service providers that are funded by the government and distributed via large
floating drones.

Infrastructure: With the population
increase, owning or renting an apartment in the city is exceptionally
expensive, as Los Angeles is one of the most expensive places to live in the
world now. Owning a car is considered an extravagance. Public transportation is
available to all for free, and it’s inefficient, but it works extremely well.
Self driving cars navigate the streets of Los Angeles in place of cabs and
personal cars.

Population: Made up of immigrants,
LGBTQIA, people of color and extremely liberal people in general. The
population is extremely dense in the city, and most people are poor. The
conservative minority is wealthy, and funded mostly by outside interests.

Protective Forces: After the LAPD
purge of 2020, the department was repopulated with a more diverse, well-trained
and aesthetically pleasing personnel. The police are also considered
“performers” as their every action on duty is televised. They wear cameras on
their bodies as well as typically being followed by film makers. This is both a
source of entertainment that is wildly popular, but also serves as a public
relation from the government to the people. Police actions are voted on by the
public if there is an investigation of wrongdoing. This has resulted in a
neutered police force that is ineffective and mostly for looks.
