Geography
Sinerre is a country that stretches from West Africa to islands close to the Arctic Circle. Due to its longitudinal variation, Sinerre exhibits a great biological and geographical diversity.

Images: Atlas Mountains (Nothern Africa), Iberia (Southern Europe), Pagonia (Nothern Atlantic Islands)The African part of Sinerre is mainly covered with Mediterranean vegetation (north), steppes and savannas (center) and desert vegetation (further south). There are also parts of mountainous vegetation on account of the Atlas Mountains.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The Iberian peninsula, on the other hand, is mainly covered by Mediterranean vegetation, in the southern half, and by temperate forests (deciduous). As in North Africa, there are also traces of high altitude vegetation in Iberia due to mountain ranges.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In the Atlantic Islands, the vegetation of the islands further south (longitude of Great Britain and below) is basically temperate forests. In the northernmost islands, such as Pagonia, and the Arctic territory, the predominant vegetation becomes taiga and tundra.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In the overseas territories, there are two predominant vegetation: the tropical island vegetation of Sinetian Lemurinesia, and the temperate forest in Sinetian New-Zealand.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Topography
Most of the territory of Sinerre is made up of plateaus and mountains, with plains limited to the coast.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In North Africa, the relief is marked by the Atlas Mountains, extending from the Atlantic to Ikoni. Below the Atlas Mountains, there is a great plain area that begins on the coast, but its interior is almost inhospitable due to the Sahara. In Iberia, the plateau of the central Meseta and its mountain ranges mark the relief. In southwestern Iberia, the plain is predominant. The Atlantic Islands are mountainous and volcanic, and their plain / plateau part is on the coast. The coast of these islands is marked by the presence of cliffs.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Climate
Climate of Sinerre is related to vegetation and vice versa, so Iberia is marked by the mediterranean climate in the southern half, and oceanic climate in the northern half. In North Africa, the climates from south to north are: desert, semi-arid and Mediterranean. In the Atlantic Islands, the predominant climate is the oceanic climate, but there is also a subpolar climate in Pagonia, which only becomes "pleasant" by the presence of the Gulf Stream, which softens winters in northern Europe.

Demography
In 2005, it was found that the Sinerrese ethnic group makes up 70.0% of the country's population, despite the fact that the Kingdom of Sinerre is also home to several considerable minorities. In total, according to the same data, 85 other ethnic groups and indigenous peoples live within its borders. Arabs are the second largest predominant ethnic group, making up 14% of the population. The population of Sinerre is well distributed in its territory, with almost all provinces having similar demographic densities, even those in North Africa and the islands. Even so, on closer analysis, it can be seen that the population is concentrated in areas around rivers and close to the coast, which is much more expressive in North Africa and the Atlantic Islands. The Arctic Territory of Sinerre is the least densely populated, being the largest administrative division in Sinerre but having only 27 thousand inhabitants (2035).

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

40.0% of the population lives in Iberia, 40.0% in North Africa and 18% in the Atlantic islands. Overseas territories concentrate only 2% of the population. (2035)

In 1980, the population of Sinerre was 80,270,000, rising to 125,791,113 in 2035, an annual growth of almost 0.82%. Currently, the birth rate is declining, but the immigration flow continues almost even. It's expected that the population of Sinerre will decrease from 2045 or 2050.

Languages
Sinerre's official language is Sinetian, but other languages ​​have co-official status in some regions. In Lemurinesia, the majority of the population speaks Kumari dialects and Tamil. Gaelic is spoken in some small towns in the western Atlantic Islands, as well as indigenous languages ​​and Nordic languages. French, Occitan and Catalan are spoken in some communes on the border with Charlon, and the Berber languages ​​are present in the south, as well as Arabic, although the majority of the Arab population has Sinetian as their mother tongue. There are a total of 29 languages ​​in Sinerre, most spoken by natives from New Zealand and Lemurinesia.

Religion
Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are the traditional religions of Sinerre, legally a part of the country's "historic heritage". The Constitution establishes that Roman Catholicism is the Royal Religion of Sinerre, but the same constitution also guarantees religious freedom to its citizens. Judaism began with the immigration of Jews expelled of Israel in the ancient age and was accentuated by the Sinetian rule of Israel between 1569 and 1789.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sinerre became a Christian nation in 1210, but its predecessor state, the Empire of Reiss and Occitania, had already embraced Catholicism in 513 AD. Islam arrived in North Africa, but today, it is well distributed between Africa and  Iberia.

Sinerre is a constitutional parliamentary monarchy, meaning that the monarch has almost purely ceremonial roles, and who effectively governs is the President of the Council of Ministers, popularly called Prime Minister.

The prime minister's duties are: to appoint ministers, to send the national budget plan to parliament, to propose the creation or extinction of ministries, to promote beneficial diplomatic agreements with the international community and to execute the laws approved by parliament.

Sinerre's legislature is bicameral, with the upper house being the Senate (composed of 50 elected senators and 25 nominated by the monarch) and the lower house being the Chamber of Deputies (composed of 495 elected deputies).

The number of federal deputies in each province varies according to the population of each province.

Senators are elected for 8 years in office and can be re-elected as much as they want. Federal deputies are elected every 2 years for 4 years in office, also without a limit on reelection. There are two electoral systems for choosing federal deputies, the district system with a ranked vote and the proportional open list system, which alternate in the elections.
