The Colony of Nonmiom

[Nonmiom]

The Colony of Nonmiom is a constitutional colony of The Kingdom Telidia who was previously asked to join Europa. Unfortunately the government of Telidia was unable to move to Europa since its diplomatic ties with The West Pacific are of great importance to both Telidia and Nonmiom. Telidia requested Nonmiom to move on its behalf to serve as a representative for both nations.

 

The politics of the two nations are quite complicated but Nonmiom became a colony of Telidia after Emporer Ginia, its present ruler married the King of Telidia King Valik II. At the time of the marriage Nonmiom was ruled by an absolute monarchy headed by the Tykliar family. After the marriage, King Valik II ordered the elected government of Telidia to begin reforms to turn Nonmiom in to a constitutional monarchy and allow a democratic government to be formed.

 

The first of these governments have only recently been formed after the Democratic Socialist party won an election and thus the office of Minister in Chief is held by Greg?ri Tillians who serve as the head of the elected government. The Governor of Nonmiom serves as a representative of the Telidian crown and is appointed by the Telidian sovereign and Governor Mary Rinnel currently holds the post.

 

UN affairs are dealt with through the government of Telidia since Nonmiom is not permitted to hold a UN membership being a subsistent nation of a member. However, the elected government of Nonmiom is constitutionally bound to ratify UN resolutions in to its domestic policy as much as possible, unless both houses of its government votes against such a move.

 

The colony consists largely of a group of some 40 islands of various sizes and thus the country has very strong naval traditions. At one time each of the islands had individual governments, but over time feudal wars and social policy saw greater co-operation and soon pockets of island group governments emerged. This process continued over many years and ultimately all the islands of The Nonmiom Sea joined under one banner, which became known as the Empire of Nonmiom. The Empire was ruled harshly by many of its previous monarchs and although peace existed between the islands at last, conditions were very harsh for its people with little or no civil liberty. International relations were almost completely unheard of since the Empire followed a policy of almost complete xenophobia with successive Emperors fearing that providing knowledge of outside governmental systems, the ruling family would see and end to their rule.

 

After the death of Emperor Lilleam III, Emporer Ginia came to thrown and wanting peace and enlightened for her people sought a relationship with their continental neighbour The Kingdom of Telidia and plans made to reform Nonmiom. The marriage between the two monarchs joined the two nations together and allowed Telidia to help guide Nonmiom towards a free society and provide economic assistance being the larger of the two nations.
