Fyxoom (English: fə-SHOME; Eevo: /fəˈʃɔʊm/), officially the Fyxoom Federation (Eevo: að Eegoþlu Fyxoom /əð ɛɪˈgɔθʟy fəˈʃɔʊm/), is the largest Eevophone country on the planet Tricin. It is mainly inspired by the United States.

Its current prime minister is Arcol rið Cmo of the All Sentience Party, who is trained as a psychologist.

Ideas

Fyxoom allows the formation of local communities with local laws to an extent, which people can exit freely. There is a public education system so that parents can't indoctrinate their children within the communities.

Regional stereotypes:

  • Western Fyxoom: cultural rebels
  • Cnollta: rural and backward
  • Eastern Fyxoom: old elites
  • Sirahda area: neurotic
  • Lleeband: exuberant Silicon Valley culture

Literature

The Fyxoomian literary tradition did not always develop in a single stream; often it had multiple competing traditions.

Romanticism

Neoclassicism

These Fyxoomian writers looked back on the cultural heritage of their Talman forebears, drawing upon and recombining and newly creating myths. Neoclassicism was mainly popular among the elites of society.

Fyxoomian Llyméer Saiñ codified the Eetøøm accent of Skellan during this period, which serves a similar role to the Bühnendeutsch pronunciation standard in German.

Popular Modernism

Postmodernism

"Postmodernist" (not quite the same as Earth postmodernism) literature took a bitter, sarcastic, ironic turn, following culture at large. Postmodernism reflects the aftermath of the Great Recession of 943dd (1347), a dark period in Fyxoomian history.

New Optimism

This movement started in Lleeband by ___ but has since been somewhat adapted for more mainstream tastes.

Pop culture

  • ???: a moderately well-known sci-fi series about a sentient race with a biological caste system that determines one's occupation. This series is more popular in Sowaár daSóol, where it is interpreted as a commentary on the Sowaár class system. There is also an opera adaptation by Segin Þwhgad.

Society

Early issues

Immigration

As Fyxoom experienced waves of more diverse immigrants, immigration became a heated issue. Many favored open borders, but some were skeptics and a loud minority was explicitly xenophobic.

Some representative writers during this period:

Industrialization

Modern issues

Politics and government

Like Germany, Fyxoom is a federal parliamentary republic.

Until recently Fyxoom had used a FPTP voting system. After a major movement to reform this voting system, it switched to approval voting.

There is a split between a fiscally conservative faction (Liberty Party), a traditional center-left faction (Republican Democrats) and a newly ascendant futurist faction (All Sentience). Old guard politicians, such as the Republican Democrat and former President Hølgi Mercáz-Smool, are widely disliked.
