Federation of South Africa (formerly: Republic of South Africa)


 * Government: Federal Constitutional Parliamentary Republic


 * President: Mmusi Maimane
 * Coalition Parties: Democratic Alliance (41%), National Freedom Party (9%), Inkatha (7%), 54% majority
 * Coalition Politics: Centrist, Center Left, Market Liberalism, Social Democracy, Pan-Africanism
 * Opposition Parties: African National Congress (32%), Congress of South African Trade Unions (8%), Others (3%)
 * Opposition Politics: Center-Left, Socialist, Ethnonationalist
 * Governmental Policies:


 * Part of Mmusi Maimane’s goals was to make South Africa a more free society, specifically free from authoritarianism. With all of the libertarian and market liberal parties in favor, South Africa becomes a Federation. The government will be centralized in Bloemfontein, but now towns and states will have greater authority over themselves. The national government will focus on projects across states, the military, and diplomacy.
 * To help lower unemployment, we will be constructing large military factories in our major cities. Entire neighborhoods will be built near preexisting industrial areas to house these factories. This will not only help lower unemployment, but help our military as well.
 * With all of our new universities and schools built, we expect that within 3 years we will have a populace which has specialties revolving around the STEM field. This will be extremely helpful for our infrastructure and military projects.
 * State of the economy:


 * GDP per capita: $7,850 (rising steadily)
 * GDP: ~$458,000,000,000 (rising quickly)
 * Unemployment Rate: 19% (stagnating)
 * Population: 58,343,000 (rising steadily, stagnating soon)
 * Defense budget: $5,800,000,000 (increased by $1bn)
 * Military:


 * Enlisted Men: 118,000 (Standard gun: Vektor R5)
 * Active duty: 78,000
 * Mercenaries: 24,000
 * Reserves: 16,000
 * Combat tanks: 325 (Standard: Challenger 2, British)
 * AFVs: 2,260 (Standard: Retel & Marmon-Herrington)
 * Artillery: 350 (Standard: G6 Rhino)
 * Frigates: 4 (Standard: La Fayette, French)
 * Submarines: 3
 * Fighters: 17
 * Attack: 17
 * Transport: 100
 * Military Policy:


 * Russia: Seeing that not many Western nations are willing to support our military, we would like to propose a deal with our Russian cousins. We would like to purchase 100 Russian T-14 tanks for 4 billion dollars. The cost of each T-14 is 3.7 million, so Russia will make a profit of 300,000 for each tank. We would also like to order 20,000 AK-74M at $20,000,000. To make the deal sweeter, we will give Russian companies advantages over Western companies in our markets. In company owned coal and rare mineral mines, Russia will be given a discount of 10% for every purchase.
 * We launch a quick invasion into eSwatini using 20,000 men. Before the invasion, we launch propaganda leaflets and radio broadcasts into the country speaking of Mswati III’s madness and insanity which may lead the country to disaster. The posters also speak of South African democracy and freedom. Our invasion will be quiet and hopefully harmless, we only expect fighting in the capital city. The army is instructed to not harm a single civilian, as we wish to be seen as liberators. eSwatini will be turned into an autonomous republic within the Federation of South Africa.
 * We begin using some of our military factories to produce G6 “Rhino” Howitzer Artillery. We hope to make artillery the key piece of our military, seeing that we focus on having superior firepower. We also begin the production of the Retel II AFV. We wish that by the next year we shall have 150 Retel IIs and 500 G6 Rhino Artillery Pieces.
 * Foreign Policy:


 * South Africa will be hosting the World’s Fair in Cape Town this year. All nations are invited to come. The topic/theme will be on technology and a robotic military.
 * British Invasion of Sudan: The Federation of South Africa, committed to peace and stability for a new Africa, wishes to invite British, and Sudanese diplomats to Durban (note, we are willing to accept other delegates) for peace mediation, to see a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Sudan. We will act as the mediators, and wish to represent both British and Sudanese interests. Our main goal is to get British troops out of Sudan, yet have Sudan’s dictatorship give more liberties to her citizens.
 * Nations of the Cape: We invite Mozambique and Zimbabwe to the alliance. As for the current members, we begin a international highway project between our capitals and major cities. South Africa will foot 50% of the bill (translates to 2.4 bill). We also wish to begin military exercises between each other to help all of our militaries grow. We wish to make Southern Africa be the gem of the continent. (Secret note: this is all in effort to one day unite the nations of the Cape.)
