 Tourism is hoped to become a major source of income for the colony in the future, as Porfíria's breathtaking natural scenery, agreeable (for Kiravians) climate, and many opportunities for hunting and fishing promise to make it a prime destination for the popular Kiravian activities of skiīng and [[backlanding]].
-==Politics and Governance==
-<strike>As a chartered territory, Porfíria is an integral part of the Kiravian Federacy for the purpose of constitutional law, and enjoys a level of self-governance more limited than that of a full state but greater than that of a dependency or federal district.</strike>
-The highest executive authority in the territorial government is the Executive Council, which is chaired by the Governor and comprises 10-15 additional members. Most members of the Executive Council are appointed by the Governor, but two are elected by the citizenry, another two are elected by the Legislative Conference, and one is chosen from among the indigenous leaders of the territory. The Governor himself is appointed by the [[Prime Executive of the Kiravian Federacy]]. The Executive Council directs the colony's bureaucratic apparatus and government agencies, managing them on a day-to-day basis as well as charting short- and medium-term policy directions. Executive decisions are usually made collectively, but certain powers, such as commanding the territorial militia and declaring states of emergency, are exercised unilaterally by the Governor, and the Governor's signature is required to validate all executive orders originating from the Council.
-The colonial legislature, the Legislative Conference, comprises 50 members elected by {{wp|single transferable vote}}. It is non-partisan, as political parties are banned by Porfíria's territorial charter. The Legislative Conference has the power to pass statutes, levy territorial taxes, elect two members of the Executive Council, confirm judicial appointments made by the Governor, and rule on certain matters concerning real property by means of {{wp|private bills}}.
-The prevailing political sentiment in Porfíria can be described as broadly conservative with a libertarian streak, owing to the colony's history as a frontier province. Porfírians remained steadfastly loyal to the [[Kiravian Remnant]] during the Sunderance. However, agrarian populism and a moderate socialist movement emanating from {{wp|trade unionism}} in and around the mining sector are also important in Porfírian politics, whereïn the latter is represented by the [[Social Democrats KF|SDKF]].

-===Law===
-Most of Porfíria does not have a seatbelt law in effect. Such a law ''is'' in effect on Rovaīon.
