Columbia

The Federal State of Columbia, informally known as Columbia, is a nation located on the island of Bermuda.

History
The year was 2025. Democracy wasn't working properly. People stopped voting, nobody cared anymore. The income tax became unenforceable, as virtually nobody paid it anymore.

The year was 2030, the Yellowstone Caldera exploded, decimating the United States of America. Exodus Protocol was enacted, the majority of DC's elite were airlifted to Bermuda. If you were on the list, you had a ticket. Civilians protested, overestimating their value.

The year was 2035, Bermuda had been renamed the Federal State of Columbia with the city of Hamilton becoming New Washington. Solar power was charging the nation, as military contracting funded the government's operations. Several military outposts around the globe had pledged their allegiance to Columbia, enabling sources of revenue to flow into the thriving nation.

The year was 2040. The "rebellious" remnants of America decided they were strong enough to reunite, thereby being labeled a major threat to the Federal State of Columbia. Shockingly, they launched their WMDs in unison toward the sun, an act which left Columbia with the only few warheads on the continent.

Geography
The geographic environment of Columbia is a tropical island. The only natural resources are rainwater and sunlight, enabling a source of solar power, additionally fueling the hydrogen fuel cell research.

Demographics
Officially all Columbians believe in the faith of Deism, that the creator endowed certain individuals with the gifts to interpret truth. The people of Columbia are a diverse background, although the majority share the quality of intelligence, with IQ tests determining their place in Columbian society.

Government
The government of Columbia is a Federal Geniocracy. In order to gain power, individuals must pass the proper testing, proving that they are capable of such a position of leadership. Appointments are for life, although an individual will be retired if they fail to successfully pass the annual assessment, with the most prestigious appointment being President. The current President of Columbia is Elsa Kaylie Danielle.

Economy
The economy of Columbia is highly praised internationally, as there is virtually zero taxes for island inhabitants. Solar power and hydrogen fuel cells power the economy, while the industry of military contracting enables the island to import necessities.
