Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 177 Victoria
The Kingdom of Victoria, with a land area of ​​more than 20 square kilometers and a total population of over 4000 million, is one of the most powerful countries in the eastern part of the Terra world.

Victoria is across the sea from Colombia in the west of Terra. Although the country is smaller than Colombia in terms of land area, it is absolutely comparable in terms of international influence.

According to statistics, there are 14 large cities, 69 small and medium-sized cities in Victoria, and more than a hundred villages and towns. With a large river across the border as the dividing line, Victoria is divided into two regions, the north and the south. Its capital is located in The northern city of Londinium.

In terms of the constitution, military, industry, religion, technology, and culture, Victoria is ahead of most countries in the Terra world, and it is a veritable advanced power. However, its political system is indeed an old hereditary monarchy. In other words, this country has the saying of king and royal family. The monarchs of generations come from the same family, and when the throne changes, heirs of the same blood are selected within the royal family.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and the king is the biggest. The king is the supreme leader of the country. He has the highest power in the judiciary and the military. In form, he has the right to appoint and remove ministers, military officers, mayors of various territories, bishops and senior clergy of the Anglican Church, etc. , and at the same time have the right to formally declare war on other countries.

However, a world power with advanced thinking like Victoria still needs to avoid a situation where one person has the final say. In fact, it’s not that they don’t give face to the king. His succession to the throne, wouldn't this great country have to be turned into a mess by him?
In order to avoid this situation, there is still a Yuan Council in Victoria's political system. To put it bluntly, it is a bit similar to the cabinet. The members of the Yuan Council are composed of representatives of major families, including the Victorian chief executive with the highest power. , the inspector general, the chief of military affairs and the commander-in-chief of the major military regions.

In the normal development of the country, the words of the king are the highest orders, but the existence of the Yuan Council Hall is like an invisible supervision. It is fine for you to formulate rules and guide the development of the country normally, but if you, the king, want to play with snake skin, I'm sorry, our Yuanyi Hall is about to make a move.

Walking on the road, ACE told Xia Feng the basic information about Victoria.

"I seldom come to Victoria. The above is what I know so far. I don't know the details."

"kindness."

Xia Feng nodded. In fact, he didn't care too much about the official information. Before coming, he knew something about it.

The national flower of Victoria is a rose, and the pattern of the national emblem is composed of three lions surrounded by a bright rose, combined with the memory in his mind, although there are some discrepancies, Victoria still has many similarities with a certain country in his memory The place where Great Britain never falls is the Empire.

What Xia Feng cares about now is not who has the final say in this country, but where to go for dinner in the future.

Xia Feng took out a map. Sanna Town is the southernmost coastal town in Victoria. Looking at the entire Victoria coast, there are not many coastal cities. It is still far away from Sandi City. Logically speaking, this town should be very prosperous. , at least trade and transportation will drive the economy here, but as far as the current situation is concerned, this small town is not too rich.

Turtle's voice of aggrieved Baba came.

"Big windmill, I'm a little hungry."

Xia Feng checked the time, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.

Because the boat docked at two o'clock, they didn't have lunch on the boat because they were too excited. Now that they had been shopping for more than an hour, the freshness faded, and the hunger immediately hit.

Xia Feng looked up at the sky.

Eating is of course important, but there is still a little time before the meal time. Before eating, they probably have more important things to do, and that is to find a place to stay tonight.

Xia Feng touched Guigui's little head.

"I'm hungry too, but let's find a hotel before it gets dark, and we'll go eat later."

Hearing Xia Feng's words, Guigui immediately remembered the night when he just escaped from Rhine Life, he searched for a hotel in the dark in a strange town in the middle of the night. Woolen cloth.

Turtle nodded obediently.

"Got it, let's find a hotel first."

Walking on the street, Xia Feng couldn't help thinking about another question.

Since they were looking for a hotel, it involved a very important thing, which was their identities.

Xia Feng had learned this information from Prue before. To live a stable life in Victoria, there are many identities, which are represented by a special metal card representing his identity.

Among them, the highest status is a Victorian citizen. To obtain this status, several conditions must be met. First, you must not be an infected person. Second, you must have lived in Victoria for more than ten years and have no serious criminal record. Third, Need to pay a lot of money.

Of course, some specific groups of people can also quickly obtain this status, such as newborn babies in citizen families, married objects, foreigners who have made great contributions to the country and have the intention to join, and so on.

Except for Victorian citizens, the next-level status is outsiders, which is why most stowaways are willing to come to Victoria. As long as you apply for a temporary residence certificate and get a card, this country will accept people of any race from all over the world to live, work and live here. .

The procedure for applying for a temporary residence certificate is not complicated. You only need to go to the relevant local department for a physical examination, enter fingerprint blood samples, and record all personal information, and then you can get the card. However, the temporary residence certificate is only valid for three months each time. , which means that every three months you need to re-apply.

Both of the above are identities that can move freely in Victoria without any restrictions. Of course, citizens will enjoy preferential policies from many countries, which is incomparable to outsiders.

In addition to these two, Victoria has a third identity, that is, a legally infected person.

As the name implies, this identity refers to the infected person legally living in this country. The specific documents are similar to those of outsiders. However, this identity will be subject to many restrictions. Just like the laws of Colombia, the infected person can only live in a specific area. Prolonged entry into the city center is not permitted, and most activities, such as public transportation and access to public places, require an advance application.

However, this is already very good for the infected. There are many infected factories in the fringe areas of Victoria. As long as they work hard and work hard, the infected can still guarantee a basic life in this country.

The above are the three legal identities of Victoria. In addition, it is the real illegal residence.

A black household refers to an outsider without any identification. If such a person is caught by the military and police, and there is evidence to prove that the person has lived in Victoria for more than a week, it will constitute a crime.

In fact, it's not that these people don't want to do it, but there are many reasons for this situation, such as major criminals who are wanted internationally, or people who have committed crimes after arriving in Victoria, or the last one, which is also the most helpless one. For one reason, they are infected.

Wanting to live a normal life as an infected person, not wanting to be restricted in freedom, not being regulated to live in a specific area for poor infected people, has prompted these people not to apply for identity.

It is worth mentioning that if a foreign infected person wants to become a legally infected person in Victoria, the process will not be [-]% cleared. There are many elements involved in it. Once rejected, he will be deported.

Because they have no identity, these infected people from black households will basically not carry out normal work. Most of them will join gangs, assist in smuggling, or join hidden organizations of infected people, participate in disputes over origin stones, and so on.

Walking on the streets of Sanna Town, Xia Feng was seriously thinking about this issue.

What kind of people should I and Guigui be?
