Vothetria, officially the Republic of Vothetria (Ethalrian: Vöhmia) is a sovereign state in the Ethalns, Aurora. The current Prime Minister, Clauzia Sarohart was sworn into office on the 20th of June 2019, forming the first Vothetrian Coalition Government.
Vothetria has been inhabited for hundreds of thousands of years by hominids. It lies at the confluence of the east and west Auroran civilisations, with its culture being heavily influenced by the Morstaybishlian people. It formed part of the Grand Matriarchy of Ethalria for centuries. When the latter state was partitioned following the end of the Auroran-Pacific War, the Republic of Vothetria was proclaimed in a referendum held on the 1st of November 2017.
Its political system is founded on multiparty democracy. It is helmed by Prime Minister Clauzia Sarohart as head of state and government and commander of the armed forces. The elected forms the law making body. An independent judiciary is helmed by the Supreme Court. The Vöhmian Workers Party (VWP) is the largest party following the June 2019 elections. Female dominance in politics and underrepresentation of men continue to be pervasive issues.
The nation is aligned with the policies of the United Kingdom, its largest trading partner. It hosts a large number of Morstaybishlian manpower and bases. Its military is formed of two branches (air and army). It relies on a 13.73 billion KRB budget and a manpower of 190,000 soldiers. Men are permitted to serve, although they constitute a minority in the force and their roles are limited.
The economy contracted significantly during the Auroran-Pacific War to 624.52B KRB with a gdp per capita of 16.5K KRB. The economy largely relies on steel, dairy produce, timber, financial services, information technology, coal mining, and heavy industry. Gender equality remains a problem, as women dominate management and earn more than men.
The country has an temperate climate. It snows in winter and rains in summer. The nation is dominated by the Zycannes in the north and west, with temperate deciduous forests and wetlands in the south and east and grassland in the south. The tallest mountain is Mount Isirili and longest river is the Lamberta River.
Juentines Scandal
Prime Minister Lupe Juentines and her government cabinet were accused by Clauzia Sarohart of embezzling million of Kiribs away from public sectors and taxpayers money in early May, a day after the leak website Tell The Truth (TTT) released sensitive data given to them by unknown robbery suspects hours before. Police took control of the situation and began an investigation which lasted less than a week, concluding the Prime Minister and her cabinet had embezzled over 11 million KRB over two years. Immediately following the report, parliament gave a vote of no confidence motioned by Leader of the Opposition Carla Schmidt, delivering an overwhelming 397 super-majority in the 416 seat house. 13 members of the Conservative party voted against and 6 abstained. Parliament dissolved with a month for elections.
Ascension of Sarohart
On the 10th of June, polling day, the Vöhmian Workers Party came out on top.
