The Digital Dimension of 3l3ctrophr34k
OOC::This is based on a dimension of an avatar I play on the Napping Cat's Dream called 3l3ctrophr34k.
Federation Status: UN Member
Political Leader: 3l3ctrophr34k the Virus
Political System: Left-Leaning College State (OOC::Democracy, I guess)
Population: 2.75 billion
Government Spending: Education, Social Equality, Commerce
Species: Variety of viruses, programs, digital beings. These creatures can take a variety of forms from humanlike to anthropomorphic animals to an animate objects. Sentience can range from completely feral and entirely reflexive to supernaturally intelligent beings.
Of particular interest are the garbage programs, designed to destroy programs that had no use either through obsolescence, malfunction, or infection, and the high level viruses, like 3l3ctrophr34k.
Personal Freedoms: Very good
Main Industries: Enterprising 14 year olds selling hot chocolate.
Allies: Supports The Union of Tinis as UN Delegate.
Enemies: None
Religion: Atheistic
NBCW: None
Interesting facts:
Time shifts within the political borders due to an effect of the Digital Dimension's creation to the effect that 1 second in most other places equals about 1 year in the Digital Dimension. When refering to time in the Digital Dimension, a prefix "DD-" is usually appended. When talking about any other time, nothing is added
History:
The Dimension, created long before computers were able to access it, has existed since the dawn of time. It has only been in the recent past, 35 years that external influence has come into effect. The first creatures of the digital dimension were very simple programs designed with a single purpose in mind. The dimension functioned, changing very little over the trillions of years. When computers started affecting the dimension, programs with no further use were destroyed. After the first major "invasion", even the first garbage programs were replaced with more powerful ones.
Government:
In the early years of the government, a dictatorship was set up to, at least stave off the impending anarchy, and at best instill something in people. A being with the intelligence and respect was set up as the leader, 3l3ctrophr34k. This was partly by choice of 3l3ctrophr34k and partly by selection of the people. About 200 DDyears ago, it was decided by unanimous decision to give elections. However, the people have been electing 3l3ctrophr34k every 10 years as leader of the council. Various programs have been elected from the current 1024 member council, broken into 2 chambers of 512 each: the 1 Council and the 0 Council.
Climate:
Very Cold. Temperatures range from (-10) in the winter to 50 in the summer. Wind chill often brings these temperatures even lower. All food is grown hydroponically and many cities have tunnels to allow people to not have to go outside during the winter. Shop space is a premium since people will travel through many of the tunnels.
Geography:
North border: Viral Bay. 3l3ctro Ocean. At the most inland point of Viral Bay is the capital 127.0.0.1. Land is heavily forested with evergreen trees.
East border: Firewall Mountains. Foothills are considered to be part of the mountains. 127.0.0.3 lies in the central part of the Firewall Mountains. Immigrants entering through the Firewall Mountains have to deal with proper immigration procedures. Illegal immigrants place themselves on the game show "Who wants to immigrate to 3l3ctrophr34k?" About 300 have thus far succeeded.
West border: Port Bay. 3l3ctro Ocean. A major access point to the country, 127.0.0.2, is where most of the immigrants will enter.
South Border: Sea of Electrons. No major cities lie along the southern borders. Cities of interest include 3l3ctrophr34k, placed on the ocean, where the current leader was first created, as well as 3l3ctroph1r3, one of the few warm places in the country, nestled where the Firewall mountains meets the Sea of Electrons. This anomoly is due to the hot springs in the area. The heat is enough that the temperature is usually about 75 degrees with about 95% humitidy year round.
Central area: The center of the country is forested with evergreen trees. It has several hills and a small volcano, Capacitor, in the middle. It is currently dormant but hot springs have yielded proof that the volcano still has magma. The town of Spark lies on the side of the mountain. The Ribbon River flows from the western edge of the mountain to Port Bay where it flows next to 127.0.0.2.
