History

Expansion

Captain Vusmein Llorens and his crew of sailors discovered the uninhabited island on 5 May 2016, later to be known as Llorens, after presumably escaping from a conflict in an unknown land. Llorens went through a rapid establishment period, as there was no resistance or prior inhabitants. The state capital establishments were Zexaro on 6 May 2016, Xeñana City on 16 May 2016, Liteya on 26 May 2016, Zanaville on 5 June 2016, and Xerturini on 15 June 2016.

Unification

The Unification of Llorens was a document created and established on 11 June 2016. It acts as a sort of constitution for the country to this day. The document briefly outlines new guidelines for the unification of the newly discovered island/continent to be named Llorens:

  • The island/continent of no-name will be named Llorens and all its land will be unified into this one nation
  • Llorens will be split into 5 states: Vusmein, Ytelia, Xeñana, Rinturè, and Zana.
  • The capital will be Zexaro, Vusmein
  • Annual democratic elections will be held to elect a Parliament, President & Vice-President

Government

The unicameral legislature, the Parliament of Llorens, is held in Zexaro, has 100 members, and is currently led by the coalition of the Green Party and the Socialist Party. The Heads of State and Government are dually held by the President, currently Fraser Zilberschlag, and assisted by the Vice-President, currently Elisabeth Harland. An election is held on the last Saturday of June each year, with the most recent election being the Llorenian federal election, 2017.

Elections are held on the last Saturday of June each year to elect 100 members to the Parliament of Llorens using closed-list proportional representation, but each party is required to host a membership vote or primary to determine the list order. Voting is voluntary for Llorenian citizens who are 16 years or older. Following the election, if no party has a majority, parties must negotiate to create a majority coalition. The leader and vice-leader of the majority party/coalition are appointed President and Vice-President respectively.
