Asterhaven
Democratic Republic of Asterhaven
Asterhaven is a densely populated independent city-country and one of the world's great centres of finance, commerce and culture. Its skyline rises above a vast network of neighbour hoods, waterfront districts and transport corridors, where millions live alongside global businesses, universities, ports and creative industries. With little land to spare and an economy deeply connected to the wider world, the city must constantly balance growth with affordability and quality of life.
Asterhaven's greatest challenge is managing its success. Housing shortages, congestion, inequality, infrastructure costs and environmental pressures compete with the demands of maintaining its position as a global economic centre. Its citizens expect ambitious development, strong public services and an open society, but every government must decide how much the city can build, regulate and spend before the world's most valuable urban real estate becomes its greatest constraint.

National Mood
The political mood of this country is shaping how citizens feel about the issues. Click a mood to learn more.
Constitutional Convention
Temporary
Called by the head of government or the monarch, or held automatically in a new country's first year. For one year the usual constitutional-change cooldown is suspended, so a new package can be opened as soon as the previous one closes, and the cost of opening a constitutional change package is capped at 75 PP however many changes it contains. Only one package can be open for voting at a time and voting thresholds are unchanged. Once the convention ends, another cannot be called for 10 years. It does not skew elector positions or change salience — its effects are purely on the constitutional change mechanics.
Citizens of the World
A country with a cosmopolitan, pluralist identity at its core. Voters are comfortable with diversity, supportive of gender equality, and want the door open to newcomers. Religious institutions are viewed as private matters, not public authorities. Says nothing about economics — a Citizens of the World nation can be market-led or heavily redistributive.
- 🎭 Multiculturalism — pulls toward multiculturalism
- 🙋♀️ Gender Equality — pulls toward gender equality
- 🌍 Immigration — pulls toward open borders
- ⛪ Role of Religion in Society — pulls toward secular governance
Common Ground
A country with a strong communitarian / social-democratic streak. Voters expect the state to provide a baseline for everyone and view inequality with suspicion. Strong on solidarity issues, indifferent on cultural ones.
- 🛡️ Welfare State — pulls toward welfare programs
- 🔨 Worker's Rights — pulls toward protections for workers
- 💰 Free Market — pulls toward wealth redistribution
- 📚 Education Investment — pulls toward education priority
- 👴 Support for Older People — pulls toward support older people
Nation Builders
A country gripped by a developmental-state ethos. Voters want cranes on the skyline and new schools in every town: big infrastructure projects, serious education spending, and opportunities for the young generation that will inherit it all. Growth comes first — environmental concerns take a back seat to getting things built. Says nothing about who should own the economy — a Nation Builders country can be market-led or state-directed.
- 🏗️ Infrastructure Investment — pulls toward infrastructure focus
- 📚 Education Investment — pulls toward education priority
- 👶 Support for Young People — pulls toward support young people
- 🌱 Environmental Protection — pulls toward growth first
Secular Republic
A country where the separation of religion and state is not a compromise but a founding value. Voters treat faith as a strictly private matter and react sharply to any hint of religious influence over law or public life. Personal freedom of conscience is prized. Secularism itself is a sacred cause here — attempts to bring religion into government carry outsized political consequences. Says nothing about economics or culture beyond the church-state line.
- ⛪ Role of Religion in Society — pulls toward secular governance
- 🗽 Individual Liberty — pulls toward individual liberty
