The Territory of South Amboy (Coscivian: Skírēn Déskax Ambôv) is a federal subject of the Mid-Atrassic States. It borders the Perth Amboy Territory to its north, Yordest Bay to its east, the Southern Military Administration to its south, and the Canal Zone Territory to its west.
History
The land that would become South Amboy was historically the territory of the Chesequaki tribes, which also encompassed what is now the Perth Amboy Joint Security Area and parts of the Human Development District, Canal Zone Territory, and Tribal Agency Below Canal. The Chesequaki had historically mixed relations with their neighbours and linguistic relatives the Chappaqui, which fluctuated over time between hostility and alliance against nearby rival groups.
South Amboy Territory was organised under the General-Government of Mid-Atrassic Crona, carved out of the Littoral Military District.
In 2034 AD, South Amboy Territory became part of the Mid-Atrassic States when Mid-Atrassic Crona was merged into that entity, becoming its Northern Division.
Governance
South Amboy follows the Governor-Council-Conference model of government used in most other Kiravian territories. Executive power is exercised by an Executive Council (Vekturikovar) chaired by the Governor-Resident, who additionally holds a number of prerogative powers which can be exercised independently of the rest of the Council. The Executive Council may also legislate for the territory when the Legislative Council is out of session or under suspension.
Legislative power is vested in an elected Legislative Council, to be elected every two years by X voting system on an at-large basis, with additional members representing Native Cronan tribal groups. As of 21208, the Legislative Council has not yet been convened, and elections have yet to be held.
