BCCCP- Reborn Union of Soviet Socialist Republics

Manchuria (Chinese: 滿洲里; pinyin: Mǎnzhōulǐ), officially the Democratic People's Republic of Manchuria, is a sovereign state located in East Asia. Manchuria is a single-party state governed by the Communist Party, with its seat of government in the capital city of Changchun. It exercises jurisdiction over 14 provinces, three autonomous regions and 3 special economic regions.

Manchuria was a historical name given to a large geographic region in northeast Asia, but currently only applies to the DPRM and the areas between the DPRM and the Pacific Ocean (part of the Russian Federation and not claimed by the DPRM). The region is also the home of the Manchus, after whom Manchuria is named.

Manchuria has been described as a totalitarian, Stalinist state with a cult of personality around Zhang Zhixiang, who currently ranks as General Secretary of the Communist Party and President (and through the office of the president he also controls the People's Army).

Administrative Divisions
The DPRM has administrative control over 14 provinces (One being the capital Changchun). Manchuria also has three subdivisions termed autonomous regions, each with a designated minority group and three special economic regions. These "special economic regions" are basically areas where there is a free market economy and they also enjoy some degree of political freedom, there are e.g. multiple political parties in these regions, which there is not in the rest of the country.

Communist Party of Manchuria
The Communist Party of the Democratic People's Republic of Manchuria (CPDPRM) is the founding and ruling party of the Democratic People's Republic of Manchuria. It is the only political party in the country, with the exeption of the special economic regions Chengde, Beizhen and Liautung (where other political parties do exist), maintaining a unitary government and centralizing the state, military and media. The legal power of the party is guaranteed by the national constitution and in combination with the powerful leadership of General Secretary Zhang Zhixiang it is generally viewed to stand above the law. The party leader since 1994 is Zhang Zhixiang, who holds a powerful collection of titles such as General Secretary, President, Chairman of the Defence Committee and has during the last 15 years created something of a cult of personality around himself. He is sometimes viewed as a dictator abroad.

Organisation
Theoretically the party's highest body is the Supreme Congress of the Communist Party, which meets at least once every five years. The primary organs of power in the Communist Party which is detailed in the party constitution include:


 * The Central Committee which includes:
 * The General Secretary, which is the highest-ranking official within the Party.
 * The Politburo, presently consisting of 25 full members (including the members of the Politburo Standing Committee).
 * The Politburo Standing Committee, which currently consists of seven members.
 * The Secretariat, the principal administrative mechanism of the CPC, headed by the General Secretary of the Central Committee.
 * The Central Military Commission (a parallel organization of the government institution of the same name)

Membership
Any Manchurian citizen can join the party. Advancement within party ranks usually depends on performance but also background such as parents and relatives political activity and views.

The party also "head hunts" potential good leaders from schools and universities.

Political ideology and stances

 * Socialism
 * State capitalism
 * Nationalism

President
The President of the Democratic People's Republic of Manchuria (Chinese: 總統民主主義人民共和國的滿洲) is the head of state of Manchuria. The office of the President is a ceremonial one, as the real power lies in the office of General Secretary of the Communist Party. The President is elected by the National Congress and is a state organ (vs. an administrative post in the CPDPRM).

Despite being only a ceremonial position it serves as an important national symbol.

The current president is Zhang Zhixiang, who holds a powerful collection of titles such as General Secretary, President, Chairman of the Defence Committee and has during the last 15 years created something of a cult of personality around himself.

Premier
The Premier of the State Council of the DPRM (Chinese: 總理民主主義人民共和國的滿洲) is in its simplest informaility the "Prime Minister" of the DPRM. In theory this post is the head of the country's government.

The Premier is formally approved by the National Congress upon the apparent nomination of the President. In practice however, the candidate is picked by the Communist Party General Secretary and the National Congress approval is only a formality.

The Premier is traditional a powerful member of the government of Manchuria and in the Communist Party.

National Congress
The National Congress (Chinese: 全國大會民主主義人民共和國的滿洲), often abbreviated NCM, is the highest state body and the unicameral legislative house in the Democratic People's Republic of Manchuria. With 2419 members it is one of the largest parliaments in the world.

Due to the Communist Party being the only allowed party in the country, the NCM is in practice a nearly powerless rubber-stamp legislature, ratifying decisions already made by the Communist Party and the national leadership.
