Sokovia (Earth-7000)

Sokovia (Sokovian Cyrillic: Соковиja; Sokovian Latin: Sokovija) is a small Baltic city state in Eastern Europe. It had a population of 800,000 in 2016 and is mostly Russian speaking. 36% of the population are Orthodox Christians and 64% are non-affiliated.

Government
Sokovia runs similar to Communist China and the old Soviet Union. It has a constitution which guarantees freedom of religion and freedom of speech, but to a certain extent (not as much freedom as the US). However, citizens do not vote. It is essentially an oligarchy. Sokovia is a one party state ruled by the Sokovian Communist Party. The SCP can elect or replace a president every four years in Sokovia, and has control over most courts.

History
Sokovia was part of Southern Estonia until 1991, when Estonia gained independence from the Soviet Union. Sokovia, which was more culturally Russian, seceded from being part of Estonia.
