If this really is your homework
[edit]Do not place this in an article. What can one do to explain what an encyclopedia article is. It is a representation of facts. This is the true story of two students and their creation of a fictional society. Zang and McKinsey were two students in a Dystopian Literature class. This is the true story of what they came up for their project to create their own dystopian society.
Name of society/government/country
[edit]The name of this region is THE REPUBLIC. It is set up as a dictatorship. It is it's own nation.
Geographical location
[edit]THE REPUBLIC is the new name for American Cuba.
Governmental/Political structure
[edit]The government is set up as a dictator ship. The way of democracy was too slow in the past and now decisions are made quicker than ever, and laws are voted on within weeks of inception. The All Seeing Eye is the title of the dictator. He is in charge. The underlings of The Eye would be The Pupil, The Cornea, The Cone, The Retina, and the Iris. Each was it's own branch of government, and other parts of society. They Pupil controls education. The Cone controls all public affairs. The Retina controls all the surveillance. The Iris controls the military. Lastly, the Cornea controls all publications.
Leader of government/social structure
[edit]The All Seeing Eye (ASE) has been around since the fall of the United States. He is rarely seen and when he makes public appearances, he is in a tank with a glass speaking platform on top. There are microphones all around the vehicle, and the glass dome that surrounds him is tinted almost to the point where you cant see inside, and the the panes are six inches of bullet-proof glass.
History
[edit]Nearing the end of the "Conflict in Iraq", a failed conquest by the Americas, then president Barrack said some poor words about Iran setting off a series of events that resulted in M.A.D. Mutual assured destruction. The results were catastrophic and the haze took months to clear. Surprisingly enough, Cuba escaped unscathed for the most part. They seemed to be thriving after the fall of the majority of all other powers. And after that all the washed up powers; America, Russia, and China banded together to take over Cuba. After this happened there were three different powers volleying for the super power, and thus, there was another civil war for Cuba. eventually America took over and Dr. Einberg, an eye doctor, became the fist dictator.
Military—history and/or current status
[edit]The current military is for the most part American. The weapons, tactics, and operation are all based off of what used to be implemented in the previous United States. Because Cuba is the best country, and due to the back-stabbing of the American portion of the triad, the military is on high alert. There are patrols always and everywhere. Curfew is 2000 every day.
Important historical/military figures
[edit]Dr. Einberg was the first dictator. In the original United States, he was a renowned eye doctor. He created the government based off of some parts of the eye. The other important figure was General Kim Song Lee. He was the general who almost defeated the American forces at the beginning of THE REPUBLIC. It took three months to finally defeat him and he made it to the gates of the ASE.
Family/social structure
[edit]The majority of the population in THE REPUBLIC is Caucasian. The minorities decided to settle on the eastern coast of Cuba. They figured it would be safer there. The families there were the same as ever, the only difference was that everything was watched. Every house was bugged and every person, at birth, had a micro-chip implanted in them which stores their genetic info such as blood type, and birth date. It is also a gps tracking device. Everyone is accompanied to work by armed guards who make sure they keep tabs on everyone. This is because of the tensions with scorned Russia and China.
Propaganda/controls for populace
[edit]Every street corner has a poster reminding all of the populous that they are being watched. There are vans with loudspeakers on top that ride around and play the slogan "I Know Who You Are" on repeat. Every evening close to curfew, the patrols knock on door, check people in, and then salute and repeat the slogan.
Free-time/social activities
[edit]There is not much free time between work and curfew. There is always sports on tv from twenty-o-clock until twenty-four hundred. Those athletes play solely sports. That is their job, what they do between 0800 and 2000. This is what most people do during those hours. And after that, that being 2400, all tv signal is turned off. This causes most people to go to bed.
Beliefs toward religion, sex, and intellectual freedom
[edit]THE REPUBLIC has no religion. When this society started the ASE decided that everyone would be together, so the government decided that the if there was people who wanted to worship something they could worship the dictator. There are males and females and procreating is encouraged. The plan was to get enough people to start reaching out and recreating the world. To help people from losing control due to loss. Any death in a family, all close family is relocated and brainwashed. There will be no uprisings due to hate.
Euphemisms/control of language
[edit]The language the society language is mainly English. French and Spanish are also accepted Since the back-stabbing incident that created and “American” country, all Russian, and Chinese is outlawed. Anyone caught speaking it is interrogated, tortured, and then killed. All speaking of the language is considered a plot against the government.
Environmental changes—wildlife/climate
[edit]The climate is always hot, seeing as it is “Cuba” and near the equator. It being an island, there is a lot of ocean life but there are many different types of animals. Everything else remains in it's natural habitat. Everything is studied to see if it can eradicate radiation better, and renew the soil of the once great world.
Architecture
[edit]15. In THE REPUBLIC, people live in houses made out of dark brick and cement. All homes are the same, two floors, the bottom floor containing a lounge with a tv, a kitchen and a bathroom, and upstairs there is a master bedroom with a bathroom, and two smaller rooms with a joining bathroom. Everyone has an exact home.
Technology
[edit]Technology is everywhere. It is on every street lamp and sigh. There is a video camera and a microphone that catches everything that is said. There is also a chip that has some basic information and a GPS. There are cellphones, and landlines. A lot like what there is in the U.S. in 2011. The only bigger difference is the heavily dictated internet and television.
Art/literature
[edit]The only type of art there is is the tv and music. There are no paintings, sculptures. The music you listen to is made by special groups picked out by the government, and if you try to make anything new you will be put in jail till you die. Since the people are all kept away from thought that brought about the M.A.D. so there is no literature there is only what your father has taught you and what you will teach your son.
Currency
[edit]The currency is the chip that is in your head can be scanned and used as your money. The money is given out by the government as a monthly allowance. The will give you three-hundred dollars in your account and if you spend it all then that is all you get, if you don't spend it, it will roll over into your next months allowance.
