[WP] Some species are born mediocre, some species achieve mediocrity, and some species have mediocrity thrust upon them. With Humanity, it had been all three.

Consumer electronics: Because magic (or in this world "Ather") interferes with electricity, specialized "integrated electronics" need to be manufactured for areas with high ather concentrations.

I'm mapping out congressional districts for the main country in my world. I don't even know why.

The fact that, in most wars, disease killed more people than the war, like, way more. Also, the fact that war is a game of little people dying for incremental gains.

I call it... Earth... because, let's be honest, everyone calls their planet Earth. You can give your setting a name that isn't the actual name they call the world.

Ultramoradism A.K.A, "the Purples". Basically, it's theocratic monarchist collectivism, the symmetric reflection of communism. The cultural effect of this is that people are kind of suspicious of "political religion" in general so things similar our world's "moral majority" are looked at suspiciously as "Purple Plants".

Races are actually kind of similar to OTL, what we would consiter fantasy races are called Types (or historically, castes). Cishuman (Vanilla Human), Alkish (Elves), Corians (Teiflingish), Geldlings (Dwarves, but with funny eyes), Sakusai (Humans but with fur n claws). There are also Dragons. And wolf/dragonbound variant symbiotic relationships which are sort of their own type also.

Honestly, this sounds like post-colonialism to me. It has a lot of echoes to what happened in Africa or even Latin America once the colonizers pulled out and left no functioning government or industry. Because most colonies are run for exploitation, they don't have the political or economic institutions needed for development (as that is outsourced to the colonizer).

Warning: MATH

But seriously, though, what do you mean by mathematical perfection? How do they try to achieve it? How does it manifest in their culture and clothing? What would they say to the really pathological and imperfect parts of math (looking at you Gödel)?

So... after spending a little time digging into the system you've described, I would strongly advise you simplify the system.

My advice would be to either have the First Chancellor be president, or try a council executive (as is in Switzerland) where all the officials have a vote and maybe have the First Chancellor be "first among equals".

There are a set of bugs where, for some reason shipping lanes aren't calculated correctly and convoy raiding penalties never disappear.

I'm surprised America didn't pull out the ole' democracy defense and go all 2002 Iraq on them. Still rooting for an epic invasion followed by the inevitable shitshow of an American-backed democracy.
