Nation Description
The Federation of Perramira was formed during the turmoil of the last war as a way for the peoples of Perramira to have a place where they can govern themselves. The federation is made up of smaller governing bodies that govern the nine states. These smaller governments hold the most power, determining taxes, handling elections within their regions and funding public projects.
The nine representatives from each state each vote between the nine of them on who will become the head of the federation for the next four years. This head, known as the president, will be in charge of the military and foreign affairs, having very little influence over the nine states.
The current president of the Federation, as of January 1st, 1956, is Alfonso Magrina. He is one year into his term, the next election will be on the 15th of September, 1959. So far his time in office has been rocky at best, the recent controversy that nearly lost him the election along with the lack of growth in terms of industry has made him very unpopular with the majority of the population.
