The Grand People's Republic of Plaktukai (pronounced Plack-Two-Kay) was founded on August 28, 2012, but officially declared independence from the United States of America on October 20, 2012. The Declaration of Independence was penned and signed by then President of the Committee of Independence, Joseph Kennedy.

History
Originally a part of The State of Kentucky, the US citizens who lived in what is now Plaktukai were fed up with the corrupt government styles of their country. Led by Joseph Kennedy, they created what was then known as simply "Plaktukai". The form of government was undecided. Some wished for Kennedy to become King, or Emperor, or even Dictator, but Kennedy established the nation as a Democratic Republic during a meeting with the Committee of Independence.
Plaktukai entered the Union of Micronational Soviet Socialist Republics, or UMSSR on November 2, 2012.
Government & Politics
Plaktukai was established by Joseph Kennedy as a Democratic Republic, in which all peoples of all parties vote upon representatives for government offices. Currently, Joseph Kennedy is the Chancellor of the Nation. The Chancellor is the head of the National Executive branch of Government. He approves and enforces the laws. Laws are created by The Plaktukaian Parliament.
The two main parties of Plaktukai are the Socialist Party (PSP) and the Conservative Party (PCP). The PCP has never won an election to date, as Chancellor Kennedy is also the Chairman of the PSP.
As of October 28, 2012, Parliament has been appointed by Chancellor Kennedy, Representatives Jacob Williams, Joshua Williams, and Joseph Kennedy, all members of the PSP.
Law & Order
As no police force has been established yet, the Plaktukaian Armed Forces temporarily serve as law enforcement.

The culture of Plaktukai varies greatly, with 87.5% of the population identifying as Christian and 12.5% identifying as Atheist. Despite some radical cultural differences, most of the population agrees that Pulp Fiction is pretty awesome.
Media
Plaktukai recieves its television services from the US, so the Plaktukaian Media is (unfortunately) similar to the US media.
