The Espium Republic, more commonly known as Espium, is a micronation between the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea.
Espium calls itself a republic, but it's not completely democratic. It's led by the president called Julian Böhler. There's also a parliament under him, but the president has all the power and can control the country completely on his own. The parliament's function is to advise the president, and he listens to the parliament really well in most cases.
The country was founded on 30 september 2020 by the president, and he has been trying to build up and make the country grow since. Because the country is really young, they don't have a lot of foreign relations, but this will change soon.
History
The Espium Republic was founded on 30 september 2020 by Julian Böhler. He was already extremely interested in politics, but he had no power. He wanted to make his people happy, so he successfully changed the island into a sovereign state. On the same day a parliament got elected to help the president run the country.

Politics and government
Political system
The president Julian Böhler has all the power of the country. That means that he can make every single decision completely on his own without needing any permission from anyone. Most people would think such a dictatorial state is scary, but this president really takes care of his people. The president is also the head of state.
Once every two years there are elections for the parliament. The parliament is there to represent the people and to advise the president. The president listens to the parliament quite a lot. The members of parliament can also ask the president questions when they don't agree with what he has done or is doing.
There is also a constitutional law. All the law enforcements have to obey this law and even the president doesn't have the ability to change this law without a majority in the parliament. This the fundement of the country, created by the people themselves.
Foreign relations
The Espium Republic doesn't have any contact to foreign states yet. The country wants to make this better as soon as possible. This will be available later.
