Daily Life in The Mandate

*Life in the mandate hasn't changed much in the almost 100 years since it was first introduced in 1923 with the fall of the Omskan Republic,The average citizen of the mandate even if they are not religious normally pray’s to their religion whatever it is at least 7 times a day, and even if they are not religious they still pray due to the culturale pressure from the wider mandate society, the average times a citizen prays are in the morning after you wake up to thank god for sparing your life and allowing you to live for him, the second time your pray is while you eat breakfast where you thank god for your meal and allowing you to live another day. The third prayer is when you head to where you work for a living,you pray that god protects you as you head to work, the fourth time you pray is when you are about to head home from work you pray that god will protect you and your family while you drive. The Fifth time you pray is when you arrive home you thank god for protecting you on your travels, the sixth time you pray is when you are about to eat dinner you thank god for your meal and you pray for god to protect you while you eat and then you eat. The seventh prayer is when you go to bed and you first pray to thank God for keeping you alive and protecting you this day and allowing you to serve him.*

*The average citizen of the mandate normally serves 2 years of mandatory military service that can be done at any time in that person’s life, while in school all students have to take a religious class out of the 5 main religions in the mandate The Mandate Omskan Orthodox Church,The Nordikan Patheon, The Zorastrian Church, The Holy Patheon, and The Essotori Church; these classes are broken down into separate divisions: 1 where the history of the religion is teached and 2a class where the beliefs of the religion is teached by a minister of that religion. This system was put in place after the HMSK was installed in power, to keep the peace between the religions by not putting any one religion above the other, but during the reign of the first grandmaster the MOOC was given the most economic support and therefore was the most taught religion in most schools.*

*The school system of the mandate is viewed by many citizens as an outdated system that while it works can leave areas for certain religions to gain the upperhand and therefore lead to unjust treatment of certain religious groups. The former HMSK had a school system that had the 6 main type of classes, number 1 was religious classes, which themselves are divided into 6 different classes which are supposedly all supported in a equal way as to bring the nation together united, but as is the case for most school systems it is not unbiased with the main part of most schools budgets for religious classes going to whatever religion is the highest in the town, city, or state it is in. The religious classes can in many ways be traced back to when the HMSK was formed in 1924 after the Omskan Republic was overthrown, after the fall of the republic the mandate would institute the Federal Act called “ The Mandate Social Education Act” which would lay the groundwork for the HMSK’s religious classes which ended in 2020 with the declaration of the RMK who would institute “The Republican Educational Act” which would change the religious classes into one larger Religious class that teaches all religions in a almost secular way with the beliefs and practices being taught to all citizens of the mandate throughout their lives, with guest speakers from each of religions sometimes brought in to teach the students sometimes and to all help explain how some of the religions work. The second type of class taught in the mandate is the science class taught in a religious sense as to not support the theory of evolution, and such things that most the religions in the mandate have viewed to be anti to their religion.The third type of class is history class which teaches mainly about the history of the Omskan Island Chain this normally takes place in 1st-6th grade, while in 7th-12th grade the classes will then start expand more on the history of the other nations in elparia as well as expanding more of the entire history of the mandate and of the history of the Osmakan Island Chain pre the mandate. The fourth type of class is language class, which teaches the main language of mandate Konfederasivan, along with the other minor languages NR.Nordikan, and Persemenid. The fifth type of class is Mathematics class which teaches Mathematic. The sixth type of class is the Extracurricular classes which can very from sports classes to military classes and so on.*

***Daily Life for the Average Civilian in the Mandate***

*Alina Andersen woke up at 7am to her family’s old alarm clock, and she would then walk over to her closet and grab some clothes before heading to her bathroom to take a shower. After getting out of the shower she would get dressed then head back to her bedroom to wake up her husband and their kids. After waking them all up she would give her 2 twin 7 year olds their showers, she would then walk toward the tv in the living room turning it on cartoons for her boys as she turned on the radio in the kitchen as she made breakfast for her family. Her Husband then walked into the room wearing a suit and trying to fix his tie saying “Honey you won’t believe what corporate did yesterday.” Alina then turns around from listening to the radio and making breakfast and says “What happened dear?” He then fully fixes tie and say’s “They fired a man yesterday because corporate found out he was gay,they used the excuse that he was not a good worker or something, honestly i thought with what Republican President did with her reforms all of the hatred against they people would stop. I am only scared that corporate might be sued because of this and what if I can't provide for us if that happens.” As their kids laugh at a cartoon in the background Alina walks over to her husband and hugs him and says “Honey you know some people can be dickheads toward each other, all we can do is try to defend those who have not done wrong and pray to God that we are doing what is right in his eyes, and Honey no matter what happens with your job we are here for you.” She then stands on her tippy toes and gives him a kiss. “Now sit down and tell the boys to get ready for dinner. It will be done soon.” She says as she turns back to making dinner. Around 30 minutes later she walked into the living room and said breakfast is done, after eating for about 30 minutes she then said “Now you 3 go brush your teeth and get ready to go, you two boys need to go to school and you my husband need to get to work soon.” After about 5 minutes Alina got to the door and hugged her husband and kissed him saying “Have a good day at work honey.” He replied “You to Dear” meanwhile her two sons then said “Ewww, gross.”causing both Alina and her husband to smile. She would then walk to her van buckling both her sons up and then buckled up herself also before waving as her husband who pulled out of their house into the suburbs around Khrona Khrista*.
