The Imperium of Teedlessia (Teedlessian: "*Teedlessia Imperata*"), also simply known as Teedlessia, is a nation located in the New World. It is the world's largest country, consisting of the entirety of the Americas. With a population of 1.43 billion, the Imperium is a heavily diverse country. Despite this, an extremely large majority of the populace speaks Teedlessian. The national capital is *Teedlessius*, and the most populous city and financial hub is *Sailavela* (formerly *New York City*).

## Government

Teedlessia is a federal monarchy, with the head of both state and government being the Emperor or Empress, depending on the gender of the ruler. The Imperium has 3 federal districts, 244 prefectures, and 1,983 indigenous domains.

Prefectures all have an equal set amount of autonomy similar to that of a state government from the now-exiled United States of America, but are indisputably subordinate to federal law. Indigenous domains have varying degrees of autonomy, but all have more self-determination than the prefectures. The federal districts represent the national capital, *Teedlessius*, the legislative capital, *Ayada* (formerly *Mexico City*), and the judicial capital, *Ibai Janary* (formerly *Rio de Janeiro*), and all are considered to be an apparatus of the state.

While Teedlessia is nominally an monarchy with some elements of absolutism, the position of the Emperor/Empress has checks and safeguards in place to prevent total autocratic rule of the monarch. The monarch has final say on some decisions the Imperium may make, though most of these resolutions are delegated to the *Federal Council (Teedlessian: "Federatsi Consilio")*, a 35-member cabinet elected by the legislative body of Teedlessia. This legislative body in particular is referred to as the *Congress of the Imperium* (Teedlessian: "*Kongresua li Imperata*"), a 3000-member unicameral chamber that is directly elected by the people.

Teedlessia has a unique addition to its political system, where workers elect councils to represent them in the local government and its decision-making processes. These councils are responsible for negotiating wages, improving working conditions, and other issues related to the workforce respective to their prefecture. This system promotes worker empowerment and gives them a direct voice in shaping the policies that affect their lives and livelihoods. While these councils are not one unified body like the Congress of the Imperium, they hold a heavy weight in both regional and national politics.

Teedlessia's constitution is known for its progressive and inclusive nature, with strong protections for civil rights, especially for minorities and LGBTQ+ individuals. It also guarantees access to healthcare, housing, education, and food, and promotes religious freedom and tolerance based on a strict separation between the church and state. The government is committed to combating discrimination and hate crimes and the constitution is heavily safeguarded to ensure these values are upheld. According to the *Empress* herself, it would "*take a* *complete demolition of Teedlessia to undermine these laws.*"

## Politics

For most of its history, Teedlessia has operated under a moderate-to-far-left political system, discounting the existence of the imperial monarchy and other organs in power relating to the throne. Interestingly, many social, cultural, and economic beliefs pertaining to right-wing politics are banned from being practiced in both the government and public. This includes heavy restrictions on hate speech, discriminatory practices, certain iconography and flags, heavy intervention on Internet-based platforms to censor right-wing rhetoric, and other forms of right-wing behavior. Although these laws and other contributing factors have led to a society that is highly tolerant of progressive thought, there remains intense public resistance against such laws in certain areas. As a result of these restrictions, most parties and individuals involved in Teedlessian politics are left-wing, the rest being centrist with leftist tendencies.

both socially and economically. The Imperium is generally considered to be an extremely welfare-oriented state with large preference to the lower and middle class in regards to this. It also has a strong tradition of progressive policies and active government intervention in the economy.

## Culture and Society

Interestingly, the social and cultural beliefs of the right-wing on the political spectrum (and the economic ideas to an extent), are banned from being practiced in both the government and the public. This includes the restriction of hate speech, discriminatory practices, certain iconography and flags, and any other forms of oppressive behavior. There is also a strict separation of church and state, which is enforced to promote religious freedom and tolerance. This has lead to a society that is highly inclusive, accepting and diverse, though there remains intense public resistance against such laws in certain areas. As a result of these restrictions, most parties and individuals involved in Teedlessian politics are left-wing, the rest being center-left or centrist.

Socially speaking, all Teedlessians are guaranteed sophisticated civil rights and protections that are heavily safeguarded by the Constitution. Particularly, minorities and LGBTQ+ individuals are given special protections, and many forms of marriage are legal. Teedlessia also has strong laws in place to protect workers' rights and ensure fair treatment in the workplace. Additionally, access to healthcare, housing, food, and education are considered fundamental rights for all citizens, and the government provides these services to the population at little to no cost. Overall, Teedlessia is thought by many scholars to be a highly progressive nation-state.
