The Federated States of the New World, also known as simply the Federated States or the abbreviation F.S., is a Metropolitan Planning Organization and country in the New World. It is one of the largest MPOs on the MRT. Member cities and states are varied in culture, natural environment, and politics – As of September 27th, 2021, there are 47 voting parliament members, 73 member towns, and 3 regions. The F.S. was originally designed to function as a country, but is now a de-facto union of cities, with exception of the regions.

How to Join

To join, ask a member and they will give you a link to the Discord server. Alternatively, you can find it in #auxiliary-discords on the MRT Discord. Once you are in the F.S. server, you will be asked for your town name and optionally its co-ordinates – then you should become a member.

Joining as an observer is also possible – just ask for the rank on the F.S. Discord server.

Notable Towns

Any FS member can add a short description of their town here if the said town is in the Federated States.

Villanueva, the birthplace of the F.S.

Villanueva is, just in front of New Dublinium, the largest town in the F.S., while also being the former capital. It is in beach, desert and savannah biomes, located on the northern banks of Heart Lake, and around Mission Bay. The town, founded and cared for by ondist, is also home to the government headquarters. Currently, Villaenueva is ranked Senator – it forms one of the larger towns in southwest Epsilon and Ward 6. Cities nearby include Sansvikk, Gillmont, and Savannah. Apart from its MRT station, SW26, and a few helicopter connections, Villanueva is isolated from the rest of the MRT's transportation network. Road, rail, and air connections are in the works, with a priority of connecting other F.S. members. After almost a year of de-facto inactivity, Villanueva has left the F.S. for administrative reasons.

Lanatam, the western town

Lanatam is MPolo455's only city. Located in Ward 8, in a fertile plain and near a river, the city benefits from presence of many FS towns in the region: Ludkrona, Hythe, Savage City. If you visit Lanatam, go see those buildings, they are worth to be seen: The Lanatam gardens, the Lanatam Cathedral and the Spleef Arena. Fun fact: Lanatam (Lānātam) means wooly in Latin. This can be explained by the main exportation of the region: Wool. Due to the big distance between Lanatam and the bigger cities of the MRT, the city, even though it is ranked senator, was isolated from the rest of the world for a long time. However, there is now a railway built between Lanatam and Savage City, so now, there is no excuse to not visit the biggest FS town in Ward 8!

Cape Cambridge, the space town

Cape Cambridge is PaintedBlue's third town and also his second town in Ward 5. It is located near a cape in southern Zeta and also on the coast of Cambridge Bay on Lake 49, right across from the other FS town of Oceanside. The town is also the capital of the Republic of Meridia. It will also be home to the South Zeta Space Center, the main space launch facility for the FSAA. Transportation to the town is mostly done via Cape Cambridge International Seaport by sea, Cape Cambridge John Glenn Transit Center by rail, and Cape Cambridge Orilla Airfield by air. The town is increasingly filling up ever since it reached mayor, and is becoming one of the largest FS towns in Ward 5. Currently, some notable builds in the town include Maxwell Park and the Piazza dell'Unità..

Shenghua, the beach town

Shenghua was founded by mi_aquamarine and was one of the first towns in Zeta, founded about 30 minutes after the server opened. It is also one of three Nansei-Gunto towns in the FS, the others being Shahai and Suncheon, and it is one of several dual ROE-FS towns. The main method to get into the city is to get in the region by train in New Singapore or by seaplane in Kazeshima, and then finally transferring to Shenghua via seaplane or ferry. The mutlicultural city, where most speak Mandarin, English, and one of the city's recognized minority languages, is known for its malls, beaches, and the Youli Park at its heart. It is also notable for the Yu Wei She Temple, located on the rural Eagle Island off the mainland's coast. Inside the temple is a statue of Ruff Ruffman, a replica of which can be seen outside the FS Parliament in Central City.

Projects

FSAA (Aerospace)

Main article: Federated States Aerospace Agency

On July 12th 2020, a vote was passed to create a space agency with PaintedBlue as its head. This agency was later named Federated States Aerospace Agency (FSAA). As of now, there are several upcoming missions, and development of a space station currently ongoing.

F.S. Parliament

During a voicechat meeting held on June 26th, 2020, crimsonf0x proposed that F.S. members could build a parliament on his plot in Central City. After debate about what building-style to use, it was decided that a building competition would be held on a third party server, which was run by a number of F.S. members, where the winner would get to paste their build onto the Central City plot. On August 6th, 2020, the build by MPolo455 was pasted into Central City. During a meeting on August 23rd, 2020, MPolo455 proposed to make a park around the parliament that would be constructed by F.S. members: Essentially a community park for members of the MPO. The idea was accepted and the construction of the park a day after. Any F.S. member can add their own contribution to the park.

SICF (Joint Rail Project with the Epsilonian Republic)

Main article: SICF

Finally burying a history of tumultuous relations, the Federated States and the Epsilonian Republic decided to merge their respective rail plans into a joint rail project. On November 11th, 2020, the document formalizing the agreement, the Rail Accords, was approved in the F.S., followed by the ROE on December 22nd. The whole project is managed by co-owned company, SICF, which is led by two project coordinators, one from each MPO respectively.

Regions

Regions are a collection of towns and cities that can govern and plan within their region as a whole. They are recognized through a motion in parliament.

At its peak, there were 3 regions in the Federated States. However, as of 2022, both Meridia and Miu Wan became independent nations.

Description and History

When you become a member, which is normally a simple process, you automatically become a member of the parliament. In July 2020, it was voted that every member user has one seat in parliament, despite their rank or number of member towns. Official discussions and debates will take place in the parliament building – We held a competition to determine which parliament building we would use and voted to chose MPolo455's design.
