Sevangesia Technate

Sevangesia is an independent nation that was torn from the Aecax Mountains in 1967 B.E. and floats above the canyon it formed. The city-state was built by the Kaxlese, an artificially created race, and it is a testament to their technological ingenuity. The city is powered by solar and wind energy, and it is the only nation in the world to have developed transposition technology, which allows the Kaxlese to travel to any location on the island in an instant. Moreover, anyone can travel anywhere in the world using their Gates.

Kaxlese pride themselves on their city's technological prowess, which is also the city's main economic focus. The buildings are all built in a consistent style, and Sevangesia is very clean and orderly. Scientists and engineers are revered by the Kaxlese, who believe they are in sync with technological evolution. Sevangesia is governed by the Council of the Mind, a group of six leading scientists and engineers.

The Kaxlese view themselves as the world's keepers and keep watch over the other nations. They are very private people, hoarding knowledge until it is necessary to share it. However, they are not willing to share their technology with other nations. The Kaxlese are the engineers of the world and are highly intelligent but emotionally detached. They are generally indifferent to other races and want to keep to themselves. They are not a warmongering species but are not afraid to use violence to defend themselves.

Geography

Climate

The climate of the floating island of Sevangesia is temperate, with a range of seasonal variations. There are four distinct seasons: spring, summer, fall, and winter. Each season lasts three months. The temperature is usually between 0 and 24 degrees C, except for winter, which can be quite cold, with temperatures below freezing. The city itself is not affected by the weather because it is built to withstand strong winds, rain, and snow. The city itself is located on a floating island, with a canyon below it, and it is surrounded by mountains. It is mostly flat, but there are several mountains on the island.

Government

Structure

The Council of the Mind
The Council of the Mind is comprised of six Kaxlese, each of whom is the best in their respective fields of study. They are respected, even adored, by the citizens. Most Kaxlese have a sense of profound reverence for their ruling Council. Because they believe they are in tune with technological evolution, they venerate their scientists and engineers.
The Appeal
The Appeal consists of 42 Kaxlese representatives, four from each of the ten prefectures, or one for every 15,000 residents. The podium and rostrum containing the main console are in the center of the large, circular chamber where the Appeal meets. The council can address an individual or group via the rostrum, or the entire Appeal via the console. When not in use, the rostrum rests on a retractable dais.
The High Tribunal
The High Tribunal is comprised of twelve Kaxlese. They set the standard for the legal system of the city.

Executive Body

The Council advises the Appeal on important issues regarding the development and application of technology, and they have the power to veto policies enacted by the Appeal. They are also the sole authority that can grant approval for new progeny designs.

Legislative Body

The Appeal governs the city in accordance with the Core Philosophy, an ethical code. Citizens respect the law, and the majority of Kaxlese work to uphold it. The Appeal also has the authority to establish resource quotas for each prefecture and make any other adjustments required to maintain the city's equilibrium.

Judicial Body

The High Tribunal is responsible for the upkeep of the Core Philosophy, the adjudication of any legal matters pertaining to the Philosophy, and maintaining of order in the city. The High Tribunal can be called upon to render decisions that influence the prefectures, and they may also be called to deal with tense situations and administer justice.

Military


The Kaxlese have a strong military that is used for defense and for rescue missions. They take a hands-off approach to other nations, unless they are asked for assistance. They do not believe in intervention, but they are willing to help in times of need.

Economy

Agriculture & Industry

The Sevangesia Technate has an industrial economy with a large emphasis on technological advancement. In addition to metallurgy, they have developed the ability to harvest energy from the sun and wind. The island has a large concentration of platinum, iron, and nickel. Aside from these, there are few natural resources on the island, so they trade with other nations for resources such as lumber, livestock, and food. Although they are not willing to share their technology with other species, they will trade with other nations. The Kaxlese are on friendly terms with the other nations, but they are not particularly diplomatic. Numerous parks and open spaces can be found throughout the city, and most of the city's roads have railings. Through terminals, which function as miniature gates, the Kaxlese have developed transposition as a primary mode of transportation around their island. The large terminals are located in major districts, while the smaller terminals are located in smaller ones. Despite their simple appearance, Kaxlese homes are equipped with advanced technology. They have large windows and balconies, and they are built to withstand strong winds, rain, and snow. There are no foreigners in Kaxlese communities, so everything is built uniformly.

Society

Demography and Population

Kaxlese are not social creatures, and it is not unusual for a Kaxlese to go through life without making a single friend. Because their bodies are their most prized possessions, they react strongly to any perceived disrespect toward them. The Kaxlese have a stable population of 630,000 and have never lived beyond 46. They also do not have childhoods; at one year old, they select their field of study and at five, they select their specialization. The Kaxlese are highly educated, with a literacy rate of 100%. Education is paid for by the state, and the Kaxlese are expected to contribute to society when they are finished with their education. The Kaxlese are not a religious people, but they do acknowledge a higher power. They are very private people who hoard knowledge and reveal it only when required.
