Ezelicus

Ezelicus
Ezelicus is a very large and older nation at 37 days old with citizens primarily of Spanish ethnicity whose religion is Shinto. Its technology is advancing rapidly. Its citizens enjoy a wealth of technology within their nation. Its citizens pay extremely high taxes and many despise their government as a result. The citizens of Ezelicus work diligently to produce Uranium and Oil as tradable resources for their nation. It is a mostly neutral country when it comes to foreign affairs. It will usually only attack another nation if attacked first. It believes nuclear weapons are necessary for the security of its people. The military of Ezelicus has been positioned at all border crossings and is arresting all drug traffickers. Ezelicus allows its citizens to protest their government but uses a strong police force to monitor things and arrest lawbreakers. It has an open border policy, but in order for immigrants to remain in the country they will have to become citizens first. Free speech is considered taboo in Ezelicus. The government gives foreign aid when it can, but looks to take care of its own people first. Ezelicus will trade with other nations with questionable ethical treatment of their citizens but prefers to keep such trade agreements a secret.

How it began...
In the beginning, there were only waring gangs in an exiled city, constantly attacking one another. Combatants and non-combatants alike were cut down. One day, a man only known as Darth Ezelicus "stepped in" and stopped the in-fighting. Torture, grief, and death were his tools in stopping the fighting. He worshiped the Angel of Death, ortherwise known as the Grim Reaper. Why he worships this symbol of evil is still unknown and is up for debate. Some say he was Christian, but shunned it when his family was brutally murdered in front of his eyes.
