Politics & Government
Rockistan is a dictatorship, which means there is only one party, and the people have no parties to take a side on. Only the party of the dictatorship is present, which is controlled by the President, Dwayne Johnson. It is an autocracy, which meant that our leader, President Johnson, holds all the power within the country. The people may elect members to a lawmaking council every 3 years, but their decisions are still not law until it goes through the President, which sometimes causing unrest among the population when they have no say in their government.
Along with being an autocracy, the country is also a totalitarian. This allows President Johnson to keep control and order the way he sees fit within the country by restricting certain things such as what all can be traded by companies and can limit the amount of kids you can have, which doesn't leave many rights for the citizens. He also restricts the freedom of speech from his people, and censors any propaganda against the government or the country. President Johnson feels in a time where many countries possess nuclear missiles it is important to protect its citizens from foreign enemies and internal enemies by curtailing freedom of speech in order to prevent propaganda and spying which may undermine the national interest.
The distribution of power is done through a Unitary Government, all of the power is held by President Johnson and his agency. Even though there are provinces set up throughout the country none of them have any power, and have to abide by what the President says, such as when he says what the minimum wage is and who companies get to trade with the provinces have no say in it.
President Johnson is also very pro-military. He has built the Rockistanian military up to one of the best military superpowers. The countries foreign relations are both good and bad. The good relations are with those countries that they trade with, as many countries rely on the supply of its natural resources. But with it being a communist country, it also has its enemies. United States, among others such as Poland, Japan and Romania are against "The Rocks'" communist ways. But as some of those countries against what Rockistan is about, they still do vast amounts of trade with them, so they stay mutual trading partners to not stir anything up.
