2040 is running. We are in Andalusia, a newly created republic that functions economically, socially and culturally as a private, self-contained region. The representatives of this region have excellent diplomatic relations with their neighbours, the other smaller regions. It has no impatience, no resentment, no envy and no false moves. The Homeland is focused on the needs of the people and works hard for the benefit of society. The biggest promise is in the economy. Large companies (companies with over 500 employees) are banned. The basis of the economy is agriculture, zanati, cultural tourism in the smaller community. The real issue is the growth of the economy. The rule is that the owner of a company cannot live more than 6 days away from the last owner. New gardens and schools are being built in the region every year, and a great deal of attention is being paid to various adult education programmes. Certain major issues are decided by referendum. The Mayor is elected every 4 years and the highest representative can only hold office for 5 years. Castles, towns and villages pay great attention to energy efficiency, so wind turbines are built and solar panels are used. There is a growing solidarity between people and the honour of spending a certain number of days a year volunteering in hospitals, schools and the environment.
