Republic of Amra

The Republic of Amra, commonly known as Amra, is a federal republic consisting of seven provinces and one federal district. Amra gained its independence from the United States when the Declaration of Amra was signed. Today, the Republic of Amra thrives as a large micronation, with a large presence in online communities.

History
On January 20, 2017, Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States. A student named Jack Hill disagreed with many of President Trump's policies, so he decided to take the area in which he lived in and secede from the United States.

On Tuesday, July 3, 2018, the Republic of Amra officially and successfully seceded from the United States with the signing of the Declaration of Amra.

Shaping a micronation
Jack Hill shaped his government rather quickly. On the day of Amra's creation, he wrote the Constitution, and he put it into effect immediately.

He gathered fourteen people to serve in the Congress of the Republic of Amra. These fourteen people were divided into two groups of seven. These groups formed the Senate and the House of Officials. There is one representative from each province in Congress. There are no members of Congress from the national capital of Grana.

Hill then chose a Prime Minister, the official who heads both houses of Congress. He chose Thomas Heets, a classmate and longtime friend, to serve as Prime Minister. Heets immediately accepted the position.

After the Prime Minister was chosen, Hill appointed five people to the Supreme Court of Amra. He appointed his cousin, Ambrosia Tosunt, to be the Chief Justice. Tosunt also immediately accepted this position.

Hill appointed himself President of the Republic of Amra. He was inaugurated on Thursday, July 5, 2018, two days after Amra gained its independence. After his inauguration, he swore in everyone into their offices. After this, the government was truly complete.

Heets' Resignation
On Saturday, July 7, 2018, Prime Minister Heets resigned from the office. In his resignation letter, Heets stated that it was "too much work", and that he had "better things to do". President Hill frantically searched for a replacement for Heets. Eventually, he decided on Brent Adran, a longtime friend. Adran was sworn into the premiership the very next day.

Government and politics
The Republic of Amra is modeled after the United States, the nation it seceded from. Amra is a federal presidential constitutional republic, much like the United States, which means that it is a federal republic with an elected president and a written constitution.

The federal government consists of three branches: There are fourteen members of Congress in total. Congress is headed by the Prime Minister, who presides over both houses of Congress. Congress is headquartered at the Union Building in Grana. The government is strictly and constitutionally nonpartisan, meaning that political parties are illegal and unconsitutional in the Republic of Amra. Every politician is an independent politician.
 * Executive: This branch consists of the President and Prime Minister, as well as the President's Cabinet and advisers.  The executive branch is headquartered at the Executive Library in Grana.
 * Legislative: This branch consists of the bicameral Congress of the Republic of Amra, which is made up of two houses:
 * Senate: This is the upper house of Congress and has the ability to declare war, impeach a federal politician, and approve Cabinet members, ambassadors, and other federal officers nominated by the President.  It is composed of seven Senators—one from each province.
 * House of Officials: This is the lower house of Congress and has the ability to introduce and vote on bills that are suggested to them by the people.  This gives the people the power to lobby Congress and the President through their elected official.  It is composed of seven Officials—one from each province.
 * Judicial: This branch consists of the five justices of the Supreme Court, one of whom is the Chief Justice.  The judicial branch is headed by the Chief Justice and is headquartered at Building 200 in Grana.
