Information

Edinburgh was established over a thousand years ago. It was one of the earliest forerunners of the citizen's revolution and industrialization. Prior to the rise of the Empire and the United States, Edinburgh was the leading nation in the world, and even now retains much influence within the Federation.

The United Kingdom of Edinburgh is a constitutional monarchy with a democratic government. The monarch "presides without ruling", and is more or less a ceremonial existence.
