Freezeland

Repubic of Freezeland/Republikk av Frysland, or simply known as Freezeland, or Frysland is located in what used to be uncharted territory. The land has been cleared of all "hostilities" and settled. It is a "Free Republic" that governs itself, but is a under supreme control of the USA. It is also under The USA's military protection, but many penguins think they dont need it seeing as they have the strongest navy in Antarctica.

Background
Freezeland was founded in 2008 by immigrants leaving Club Penguin. With global warming and the rise of villains, they decided to form a colony far far away. After boarding a fleet of large clipper ships, they spotted an uninhabitated area. They colonized and built many cities and forts there. They are now in the United States of Antarctica as a Free Republic. It is self governed but proctected by the USA and their government must decide the final chioces.

Government
Government System: Tribal Chiefdom

Head of State & Government: Chief

The Northern Tribe is a patriarchal monarchy but has the aspects of a tribal group because the Chief is the Head of State. Labour division is dependent on sex: males serve as hunters, fishermen and warriors, and females serve as homemakers.

There is a small council that advises to the Tribal Chief. Politics can also be personal. For example, marrying the Chief's daughter, the Tribal Princess, can be a significant step in a political career.

Cuisine
Cuisine in Freezeland is based on two foods, Fish, and Vegetables. Freezeland has exclusive trade lines with the Victoria Territories, so they have many unique, regional, foods. Such foods include Cabbage, Artemis Carrots, Water Chesnuts, Ginger, Potatoes, Radishes, and New Zealand Yams. Freezelandian penguins love to eat socially with friends or family, but will never turn you down for a glass of Cream Soda. Freezeland customs state that if someone gives you something to eat or drink, you must give food or drink to them. Since Freezeland is a maritime, a normal Freezelandian diet includes Fish, Seaweed, Oysters, Squid, Sea Grapes, and Sea Lettuce. O'Berrys are an expensive delicacy, and common Yule gifts. Freezeland does not house many fast food restaurant, more fine dining and rotisserie fish restaurants, such as Frys Chalet.

Customs
Often, in smaller towns and villages, and especially on a country road, if you walk past somebody it is customary to say hello. They may also ask you "how are you?", or another similar variation. It is polite to respond to this greeting, but it is not expected that you would give any detail on how you really are, if the penguin is a stranger - a simple hello or "how are you?" or a simple comment on the weather will suffice! In this regard, try something like "Grand day!" - if it isn't raining, of course. To which the response will generally be "It is indeed, thank Goodness".

When driving on rural roads, particularly where a driver has to pull in to allow you to pass, it is customary to wave a thanks to the other driver, by raising your hand from the steering wheel. This is particularly prevalant in rural areas of the West of Freezeland where many drivers will automatically wave at everyone who drives past them. A polite wave (or even with just the flipper raised from the steering wheel) is customary and will be appreciated.

When accepting gifts, a polite refusal (such as, "no really you shouldn't") is common after the first offer of the item. Usually, this is followed with an insistence that the gift or offer is accepted, at which point your answer is likely to become more recognized. However, some people can be very persuasive - this isn't meant to be over-bearing, just courteous.

One thing which some visitors may find disconcerting is the response an Freezelandian Penguin may give to a "thank you". Most Freeezelandian Penguins will respond with something along the lines of "It was nothing" or "not at all". This does not mean that they didn't try hard to please, but rather it is meant to suggest "I was happy to do it for you, so it was not any great difficulty" (even though it may have been!).

Freezeland and the USA undoubtedly have notable similarities, but Freezelandian penguins generally take pride in the cultural differences that exist between Freezeland and the USA, and can be quite offended by tourists who do not acknowledge or show respect to these differences. Indeed it is not uncommon for foreigners (both before and after arrival into the country) to foolishly assume that Freezeland is a state of the USA.This incorrect assumption will generally cause strong offence to locals in the Republic of Freezeland take Pride in being independant from the USA.

The Freezelandians are renowned for their upbeat sense of humour, which can often be difficult to understand to the more unfamiliar tourists. Joking on almost any topic will be welcomed, although even mild racism is not appreciated by the majority.

Most Freezelandian penguins are quite happy for friendly jibes regarding the Freezelandian love of Cream Soda and speaking gibberish, however, any jokes regarding the Khanzem, in which most of the High Penguins were killed, could in some instances cause a similar amount of offence as joking about the Great Darktonian Pie War
