Government[]

Karakura is led by President Helios, who is formerly a citizen of Uvin. As such when Karakura declared itself, Uvin was the first nation to recognize Karakura. Karakura is run by Representitives, elected every four years, by the people. These Representitives live in Shinigami for the extent of their terms. there are no limit in the number of terms a Representitive may serve, however, if a Representitive is removed from office, for any reason, he or she is not allowed to run again.

President[]

The first and current president of Karakura is President Jacob Helios III, former citizen of Uvin. While still in Uvin, he started Helios Aeronautical Inc.(HA), the main producer of all aircraft and aircraft parts within the country. When Uvin decided to make a colonies on the newly discovered Karakuran Islands, Helios resigned his post in HA to lead a group to the islands and set up a colony. After several years, Uvin entered the Great War, and due to enormous destruction in Uvin, it severed connection with the colony of Karakura, and the nation of Karakura was born. The citizens of the new nation elected Helios as the leader, who then set up the same form of government of Uvin.
