| - Pineland is a union of several houses of considerable influence headed by a single monarch whose power is limited by both a constitution and legislature made up of commoner citizens. The Houses of Burcote, Whitmore, and Wolcot are the three major houses which hold control over the three regions of the nation, and all three are considered to rest under the House of Wolver, which heads the Monarchy of Pineland and has constitutional control over the nation's government. The power of the monarchy is then limited by the Constitution, which can only be modified under the transactions of the bicameral Parliament. The Parliament's two houses are based upon the two levels of subdivision within the nation; the Chamber of Barons is made up of the Barons of the 34 Baronies, and the Chamber of Prefects is made up of the Prefects of the XXX Prefectures. The Baronies exist under the three houses of the nation, with the Burcotes along the southern coast, the Whitmore in the east, and the Wolcots in the west. The House of Wolver holds influence over the Greater Region of Houston, a region which is made up of the two metropolitan baronies which compose the large metropolis. All other baronies are considered to be non-metropolitan, and thus no special rules are held over their rule. The current system of unionized monarch-based control over the nation was officially established in 1980, after the end of the War of the Four Houses which resulted from the end of the aftermath of World War III. The Union of Pineland has a modernized economy which is considered to be evenly displaced over its primary and secondary industries. While still considered post-industrial, the nation holds most of its economic power in its vast manufacturing and refining industries, most of which are centered around the Greater Region of Houston. Transportation-based industries also make up a considerable amount of economic prominence in the nation, with shipping and rail travel in high demand as manufacturing in the country exports a great deal of their products. To maintain control over its own economy, the government has nationalized the automotive, rail, air, sea, shipping, petroleum, and parcel industries, which results in most of those industries profits being redirected to services for the people. The nation is also home to a strong currency, the Pinish stirl, which is moderated by the Bank of Pineland in the city of Houston. With a population of 9 million people, the nation is the second largest by population in North America, and the majority of the population is considered both free and living to a highly adequate standard of living complimented by a moderately low cost of living. The nation has a neutral outlook towards foreign cooperation, believing that a moderate amount can positively effect the economy. There are some regulations in place into insure that foreign control is strictly limited to certain areas of the economy, mostly the imports of automobiles and food. On a political level, however, Pineland holds very warm relations with both its neighbours and other nations both in its region and further away from the country. The nation is a participatory member of the World Congress, and it maintains large degrees of involvement in the Eastern American Union.
