Magallanes


La Region Libre de Magallanes is a nation led by Gobernador Electo Jorge Flies on the continent of South America. La Region Libre de Magallanes's government is a Parliamentary Democracy with very moderate social policies. Economically, La Region Libre de Magallanes favors far left wing policies. The official currency of La Region Libre de Magallanes is the Chilean Peso. At 95 days old, La Region Libre de Magallanes is a mature nation. La Region Libre de Magallanes has a population of 328,199 and a land area of 3,600.00 sq. miles. This gives it a national average population density of 91.17. Pollution in the nation is noticeable. The citizens' faith in the government is completely depleted with an approval rating of 0%.

La Región Libre de Magallanes, known in English as the Free Region of Magallanes, is a nation comprised of the various comunas (communes) that were divided prior to Magallanes' independence. Being still in development, the nation revolves around the cities of Punta Arenas(the capital) and Porvenir. They are across from each other separated by a body of water (the Strait of Magallanes), which flows into the Strait of Magellan.

 

Magallanes is a geographically diverse nation, with features such that include Torres del Paine national park, Cape Horn, Tierra del Fuego island, and the Strait of Magellan. Far into the North, the Patagonian ice field withholds the tallest peak in Magallanes, Volcán Lautaro. Jorge Flies has publicly announced that Chilean Antarctica is of no interest to him, and has left it to Chile due to the far distance away. However, most of this land is rugged, and mostly used for sheep/cattle farming which is one of the country's main industries. This makes a large amount of the land unable for settlement.

Geography
Continent: South America
Land Area: 5,793.62 sq. km
Terrain: Magallanes consists of a contrasting terrain which transitions from marshes and plains into soaring snow-capped mountains. Magallanes does not go further deeper than sea level, as the underwater trenches are yet to be discovered.

The region consists of mountainous peaks and glaciers around the northern areas, including a few parts of the Patagonian Ice Sheet. Down south, there are other ranges (for example), the Cerro Toro and several surface waters such as the Seno Última Esperanza, Eberhard Fjord and Lago Grey. Preserved areas consist of the Torres del Paine National Park and the Cueva del Milodon Natural Monument.

The topography can be split into four regions: Región Archipielágica, to the west and south, Región Cordillerana, Región de las Planicies Orientales in the northeast, plus Región Sub-Andina Oriental.
Highest Peak: Volcán Lautaro, 3,623 meters
Lowest Valley: N/A (Sea Level), 0 meters
Climate: Magallanes has reported (following a census in Punta Arenas) a relatively chilly climate that follows westward winds from the Southern Atlantic. It is not densely vegetated and has vast expanses of land. Temperatures usually range from 10C to 2C.

The region is characterized by low temperatures and strong winds throughout the year. The region has five different climatic types, owing to the diversity in altitudes and the width of the region. Owing to its proximity to 60°S (a zone characterized by low pressure systems and subpolar cyclones), frontal systems regularly pass through the region.

The westernmost islands have a cold, humid and rainy climate, being exposed to strong winds and low temperatures throughout the year. Precipitation averages 3,500 mm (140 in) per year, while the mean annual temperature on these islands is 9 °C (48.2 °F) with a low thermal amplitude due to the maritime influences and the strong winds. Precipitation decreases and temperatures increase moving eastwards. These islands are the wettest places in Chile, particularly on Guarello Island where it can record 9,000 mm (350 in) during the wettest years. Precipitation is high throughout the year though fall tends to be the wettest season.

Immediately to the east of the westernmost islands, east of the Andes and bordered by the Cordillera Paine to the north and the Brunswick Peninsula to the south, the climate is much drier. The Andes to the west block most of the precipitation, causing most of the air coming in to be dry. Mean annual precipitation ranges between 250 and 400 mm (9.8 and 15.7 in) which is fairly evenly distributed through the year. During winters, precipitation mainly falls as snow. Mean annual temperatures are between 6 and 7 °C (42.8 and 44.6 °F). Due to the close proximity to the ocean, winters are not cold and snow cover does not last long.

In the easternmost parts of the region, including much of Tierra del Fuego province, a cold steppe climate prevails. Temperatures are cold while precipitation is lower than areas to the west. Mean precipitation is between 250 and 500 mm (9.8 and 19.7 in), decreasing eastwards and is fairly evenly distributed throughout the year. Mean annual temperatures range between 8 and 9 °C (46.4 and 48.2 °F). From December to March, mean temperatures exceed 10 °C (50.0 °F) while during winter, they reach down to 2 °C (35.6 °F).

Corresponding to the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, located at higher altitudes, temperatures are cold enough to maintain permanent ice fields. Mean temperatures are below 0 °C (32.0 °F) in all months while precipitation (mostly as snow) is abundant year-round, receiving 2,000 mm (79 in). These areas have a polar climate.

In the southernmost islands, south of Tierra del Fuego and the Strait of Magellan, a tundra climate prevails. These islands are strongly influenced by the surrounding Pacific Ocean to the west and southwest and the Drake Passage to the south, resulting in constant temperatures throughout the year. Mean annual temperatures are between 5 and 7 °C (41.0 and 44.6 °F) while precipitation is high, with most places receiving 1,000 mm (39 in). In sheltered areas, precipitation is below 600 mm (24 in). Summers are the warmest and the wettest season in these islands.

Description: The economical activities of Magallanes largely depend on Gobernador Electo Jorge Flies and the votes of people in parliament.

As of now, investment goes into:

Infrastructure
Cities
Land
Exploration
Expansion
Policy Enforcement
Development (as selected by the Magallanesians)
Welfare for the impoverished and famished
Average Yearly Income: $52.35
Gross Domestic Product (GDP): $128,455,672.00
GDP per Capita: $391.39
Gross National Income (GNI): $52,848,715.00
Industries: The majority of economic activities are sheep farming, oil extraction, and tourism.

Residences in Magallanes possess the largest income of any Chilean Free Territory/State/Province.
Military
History: There is currently none, and no logs to report on it. It is reported that Jorge Flies has announced: "Magallanes has to prioritise its' time correctly as a new state," he declared. "Military will continue to be at the bottom of our list until conflict breaks out and defense is necessary, or until we can make the citizens happy and can switch our focus onto more national projects."
