-The '''Cape''', officially the '''Cape State''', is a country in southern Africa. It has a population of over 15 million people, 13 million of which speak(natively or otherwise) one of the official languages and ''lingua franca'' of the nation, [[Cápa]], which is a creole language that developed from Portuguese, Dutch and English as well as the East Bantu languages of Zulu and Xhosa. Additionally, [[Boer]], a [[w:Patois|patois]] of Dutch turned language(much like [[w:Afrikaans language|Afrikaans]] in OTL), is also an official language, although this is largely a ceremonial law, as very few speakers of the language remain in the country(with the vast majority of Boer speakers living in the neighbouring nation of [[Verse:Orange-Transvaal|Orange-Transvaal]], where it is the official language and ''lingua franca'').

 ==Politics==
 Cape State is a parliamentary democratic republic, with a president(Sandile van Koch) as head of state and prime minister(Ciko Ánzo) as head of parliament. General elections for president are held every four years and candidates are voted on by the vote-eligible(citizens over 18) population. New prime ministers are voted on by Members of Parliament(MPs, or ''pharambantu'' colloquially) in parliamentary elections, where the general public votes for MPs and said newly elected MPs then vote and elect a new prime minister.
