Politics has been a big business, and mostly cleanly run. The major parties are:
- Freedom Party
- Green Party
- Workers Party
- Republican Party
- National Party
Presidents serve for 6-year terms, with a limit of three terms before they must retire.
Number | President | Vice President | Party | Years |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | David Grant | Brian Ellis | Freedom | 1985-2004 |
2 | Dale Johnson | Horace Callahan | Freedom | 2004-2016 |
3 | Gregory Hodge | Gabriel Meyers | Independent | 2016-2022 (end of first term) |

Growth of the Nation
Grant's first term saw an explosion of province formation, as groups carved out their sections of land. Within five years, the country would expand to 29 provinces.
- 1987: 5
- 1988: 5
- 1989: 5
- 1990: 4
- 1991: 5
Grant's Second Term, and Second Election
Part of Grant's re-election platform was to get the country to at least 45 provinces. By year four, he succeeded in that.
- 1992: 4
- 1993: 4
- 1994: 4
- 1995: 4
- 1996: 3
- 1997: 2
The second campaign was much more feisty and tightly contested, as a Grant win would guarantee a new president the next time. Grant would eventually get his third term, though only by two provinces, 19-17 over Joe Brady of the Workers Party.
1997 Candidates | Party | Provinces |
---|---|---|
Grant/Ellis (I) | Freedom | 19 |
Jim Blanc/Brian Casson | Independent | 5 |
Nathan Collins/Henry Kennedy | Green | 4 |
Joe Brady/Andrew Salisbury | Workers | 17 |
Richard Fletcher/William Rosenbaum | Republican | 3 |
Edward Walton/Horace Callahan | National | 1 |
