Wild Towns
As large as Redmont and Alexandria may be, their borders have limits. The lands beyond these limits are known as the Wilderness. Many have sought to create their own societies within the Wilderness. These societies legally are unable to be controlled by Redmont or Alexandria. Each wild society is colloquially known as Wild Towns though the title is misleading for a Wild Town can consist of multiple towns.
Wild Towns lack the ability to forcefully arrest, forcefully tax, or have lands owned by the government itself. Wild Towns instead rely on public shaming, violence, reporting people to staff for harassment, voluntary donations, local business profits, and private citizens claiming lands. In many ways, Wild Towns tend to be far more libertarian in practice than Redmont and Alexandria due to the Wild Towns's limited ability to enforce control.
Mironia was one of these Wild Towns, founded by Redmontians who migrated into the Wilderness and considered themselves a new national identity separate from Redmont.
Early Mironian Government
Mironia's official title early on was the "Wild Federation of Mironia". This meant that Mironia had a central government composed of representatives sent from state governments as well as a popularly elected President of the Federation who was tasked with executing the federation's laws. States were ultimately subordinate to the central government but were allowed to have their own culture and local governments.
Early Values
Mironia's first constitution enshrined various values which the people of Mironia thought were important.
- Accurately represent the preferences of its citizens.
- Participation in government.
- Checks and balances.
- Freedom of speech, expression, assembly, and running for office.
- No discrimination on the basis of religion, belief, political opinion, race or sex.
Mironians additionally rejected the idea of having noble titles and having certain citizens who had more voting power than other citizens. This was in direct response to the largest wild town at the time known as Mountain, a town which sold noble titles that granted extra influence in government.
Old Mironia's States
Each state government elected their own Governor, appointed their own State Judge. Each state government elected two senators to Mironia's senate and a amount of representatives to Mironia's house of reps determined based on population. States also had a state house and a state senate, composed of the same people who represent that state federally. The state house and state senate could vote to create state laws.
The first state and initial founder of the Mironian Federation was South Miron. It featured a hospital, map room, various shops, mob farm, the old church of eve, and a place where people could vote ingame by renaming wool and dropping it into a hopper for their preferred canidate. South Miron also had a giant statue of Jaron's Head. Daan became governor of South Miron.
In what eventually became Metropolis, MrNick proposed the state of North Miron. MrNick would have been governor of this state. At the time, this area was wilderness but MrNick wanted to establish shops and housing there. However, there wasn't enough support within the Mironian Government for North Miron.
The state of Redwood was proposed by Jakku and was approved by Congress (which at the time was composed of South Mirons). Hello became governor of Redwood. This state featured farmlands and a barn. Redwood however had less population than South Miron and thus had less seats in the House.
These states would later be abolished at the end of Daan's Presidency.
Central Government
The Central Government during Daan's Presidency was fairly complicated given Mironia's population size.

The Daan Administration
President Daan built Mironia's government from the ground up starting by establishing Mironian values as legal rights and establishing the early Mironian Governmental system. He established South Miron and became Governor over that state.
Daan's first Executive Order was to establish a paid military force where there were ranks with various levels of pay. Daan established a army, airforce, navy, military intelligence, and cyber defense. Daan became commander in chief.
Daan brought Mironia into the United Nations of the Wildnerness (UNW), a group consisting of Mountain, Labor Cape, and Outer Redmont. Daan appointed a Special Envoy to the UNW.
Sterfry was put in charge of Water and Infrastructure. This lead to a shop, bar, and military factory (the military factory was located on military island, as shown in the map of Mironia image). Around this time Yeah Jaron visited Mironia and the Yeah Jaron head was constructed in his honor.
Congress member Jakku proposed a criminal code and the creation of the state of Redwood. Both laws passed. Congress member MJL proposed the Judicial Standards Act to elaborate on how courts are supposed to work for example burden of proof and jurisdiction rules. Jakku also proposes Trial by Spleef which ends up not passing. Culls, Talion and Stormcrafter are nominated as Justices with Culls as Chief.
NotThatBright was put in charge of Agriculture and the new secretary of Economic Affairs to replace LobsterRollz. He made lands for livestock farming. NotBright also started making report on the impacts of a theorized wave of new players that could occur should Yeah Jaon publish a video, this is known as the Jaron Wave. This report said Mironians need to stockpile certain items such as totems of undying and enchantment books since shortages were bound to occur where a wave of new players started playing.
Mironia got a hospital developed, this hospital was run by the Mironian State with support from Redmontian Doctor. Daan established Federal Road Service to maintain and name the roads. Daan established a Labor organization to oversee farming, mining, and building new housing/roads.
Daan made twelve departments and ordered that Dept Secretaries would be paid a salary. Most of these departments were unused so they will go unmentioned in this article.
