HISTORY
Celeborne began as a small religious sect that focused on healing. The founding fathers felt that they were being overly oppressed by their government and set up a colony in an unpopulated woodland valley. Over the centuries many war refugees came to the valley for healing or a safe haven and stayed. The population grew steadily and was continualy augmented by refugees and the sick and wounded. Later the population recieved another lift when the elven population that had originally occupied the area came out of hiding.
Celeborne continued to devote much of its research to medical and pharmicutical advancement, then it was large enough to be noticed by the rest of the world. At this time Celeborne began to build a military and completely and formally seperated it's self from its parent nation.
Celeborne still continues to focus on medical advancement but has also branched off into space craft and military research.
POLITICS
Celeborne is a mix of a republic and democracy. All officals being elected by a majority of voters. The head of Celeborne is refured to as "First Speaker" and has a four year term, with a limit of two terms. The First Speaker also gives up his/her name for the duration of their tenure and are refered to only by their title. The First Speaker may declare war, deploy troops, introduce legislation and has veto power over the senate. They also have a few more perks of the executive office.
Each of the 25 districts has a governer that has powers and responsabilities simular to the first speaker, but at the local level, of course. Each district also elects a number of people to the senate to represent them. The number of senators is based on the districts population.
Celeborne has an extensive and active diplomatic corps with a status among the people and government equal to the military.

Overview (tourism and such)
Celeborne is bordered on three sides by ocean, so there are massive amounts of open beach with many fine resorts. There are also many sprawls (mega cities) and Arcologies have begun to spring up. However the government strickly controls the amount of forested and open land that these are allowed to destroy. This has resulted in the Celeborne having a huge amount of stunning protected woodlands, lakes , and other natural wonders.
There are also 3 privately owned islands of some size in Celeborne's waters. These have become havens for the world's rich and famous. One of them also has a sprawling amument park (about 150 square miles) called "Adventure Land".
Celeborne also owns and operates an exclusive off world resort "Shangri La". It is a luxuriously appointed space station that mirrors Las Vegas.
