South Acadia Province
609,000 people live in South Acadia, meaning 8 seats, so 12.5% per seat. This province is mostly inhabited by rural working-class farmers and has a high population of Blancos, with a strong Outer Island population. This province also has the highest rate of gun ownership with 81% of households owning firearms. The capital and largest city are Clydewood with a population of 78,000. Overall it's seen traditionally strongly Conservative with Northern Lion doing well as well with Green being the main opposition. There is a provincial legislature with 68 members.
South Acadia is the largest producer of soybean in Slokais, with major crops such as rice, wheat, and corn making up the rest of the industrial mix. This is due to the large Acadian Plains along the coast, making it suitable for growing crops as compared to many other provinces. At higher elevations, although there is less farming, it's a major producer of trout and other freshwater fish, as well as many springs, often used as sources for bottled water. Finally, in Elba Township the terrain is much more barren, with sheep farming and wool production being major industries.
A short drive into the mountains from Cyldewood is South Hills Township. In the town of Jiufen, every September, the Slokais Islands Arms and Ammo Festival is held. During this multi-week event, 100,000 people come to buy, sell and use firearms. Traditionally, most rural households had arms, as a conflict in rural areas was common. This only increased during the Slokaisan Civil War when various armed militias were formed. This left behind many weapons in civilian hands, although gun ownership has decreased in some provinces, and in rural areas, gun ownership remains high. However, unlike in many countries, gun ownership is not associated with right-wing politics. The Green Party of South Acadia for example has a festival booth and the members of the Party List answer questions. One of the most asked topics is economic policy. Unlike much of the Green Pary, this provincial branch is less focused on social issues and more on having an appeal to farmers. Despite all of this, South Acadia is one of the most solidly conservative provinces.
