===Politics===
The only place where any pseudo parties exist is the [https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/16088000/ House of Union]. Since worker unions are illegal in the country, an alternative was created in the form of the House of Union. Its job is to make sure the houses left over from the Wasi-King are reigned in and happy. Each house controls a certain amount of members in a 275 person senate. This senate will vote over cultural and internal issues. Effectively acting as a guard to stop extremest Executives from gaining to much power. This senate has little power though and is not always effective. The houses include House Papa, House Espada, House Kuskachay, House Qispisqa Kay, and House Kanchi. Historically House Kanchi has reigned supreme but since 1994 House Papa has held a commanding lead. Bribery is common within the House of Union. Different Executives will occasionally bribe entire houses in order to gain more power within the country.

===Attitudes and worldview===
===Attitudes and worldview===
The people of Canespa view life as a connection to the earth that individuals have to play a part in. In their opinion other countries lack a connection to the earth, and that this will play a role in most of there failures. They believe that in order to maintain balance Canespa must keep its connections to Mother Nature in order to feed the people of the world. The Canasta Company while being a government and corporation plagued with corruption and power hungry individuals has always, under the guidance of House Wasi, kept its promise of maintaining its connection to the Earth and guaranteeing the safety of the people.

===Religion===
===Religion===
Religion in Canespa is majorly identifies with [[M'acunism]]. The people of Canespa through there isolation formed there own school of teaching within M'acunism. Known as the Nature school is a slightly different form of M'acunism that instead of focusing on the hierarchy of animals focuses more about the connection to the planet that the Great Oneness has. Individuals from the Nature school believe that while there is a hierarchy, plants are a part of it. This is different from the other schools as they focus specifically on the animal kingdom.

Individuals from the Nature school believe that while there is a hierarchy, plants are a part of it. This is different from the other schools as they focus specifically on the animal kingdom. They also believe that any use of mother natures resources in a destructive way directly harms her. This influences the laws of Canespa in that all types of fossil fuels are outlawed with a few exceptions like the military. 


The state has a mild connection to the religion. The Wasiexu is required to follow M'acunism. While other executives are not required to follow the religion, they all do. M'acunism in Canespa has held strong against Christian missionaries for centuries. This has been thanks to the belief that all the stories of the bible are centralized to one location, and do not reflect the actions of an all powerful being. It is also thanks to the isolationism that Canespa took part in for centuries that this school spread.

In 2027 Canespa updated its currency into the Capesa. An (almost) completely digital style of currency exchange. The Capesa is digital form of currency that is backed by electricity. One Capesa is equal to one Kilowatt of electricity. While this does lead to a slightly harder to control currency it means that Canespa can engage in trade deals with other nations that result in direct energy transfer. Thanks to this Canespa produces little energy of its own. Instead it imports most of its energy from other countries in exchange for food. Before this, Capespa was using the [[Taler]] because of its connections with [[Burgundie]] as they were the main trade partner of Canespa.

Do to the unstable nature of an energy based currency, Canespa has laws in place that allow for a rapid shift in how much things cost and how much employees are paid. It also leads to more Capesa's being dealt out whenever more energy starts to be produced. Of course due to the nature of the Canasta Company taxes are irrelevant and no taxes exist in the country. All the money paid out to employees who then buy goods which means the Canasta Company will get all of there money back eventually.

The people of [[Canespa]] get around using the [[Qumir Canals]]. A massive canal network within the country that is used to transport everything from military equipment to food to even people. In addition to the canals there is a high speed rail network between Canestapa, [[Port Extranjero]], and Hamuq Cities construction cite. There are smaller outshoots of this rail network connecting to the smaller coastal cities of Canespa but these rail networks are expensive and not entirely tested so the canals have remained the main transportation device within the country.

===Technology===
===Technology===
''How advanced is your country? Is it an innovator, or does it largely import new developments?''
Canespa has a small science department in most fields and usually relies on importing new technology into the country. One of the only major focuses of [[Canespa]]'s science department is its agriculture division. [[Hamuq City]] relies heavily on this new farming technology that revolutionizes the amount of food that can be produced per worker. The department has experimented with genetically modifying plants and has made strides in the amount of time it takes the Potato plant and Tobacco plants to regrow. The potato plants growth time alone has been cut in half to around 30 days. The department also works on the development of new field equipment and has produced the Granjero Gen V and Gen Vl Tractors. These Tractors are absolute beasts that use treads instead of wheels causing less soil damage. They also have a 745 horsepower completely electric engine. The department has already started work on the Granjero Gen Vll which is expected to come out in 2036.
 
 
Military wise the department has made the Mayu Uywa. A mechanical beast of a machine that was designed for the defense of Canespa. The Mayu Uywa crawls along the bottom of the canals, if there is a threat it will pop out of the water within 10 seconds and begin an onslaught of fire from its 4 mini turrets. The Mayu Uywa also has a main battle turret that is large enough to completely destroy enemy tanks within range. The country currently has 17 of these beasts roaming the depths of the canals.
