Hi Jessica0703,
This sounds like a cracker -- It grabs me, I want to see it, my kids would want to see it. My only suggestion would be to have a play with "...whose constant bickering and failed policies..." -- I think if there was something the government was doing that was more of a specific threat to them it would make the stakes clearer, as in, you could lose "constant bickering" (although, it does work) and state what the failed policy(ies) is -- really no issue though, just an idea -- and Richiev's take on a potential title (if that's what it is) is pure gold.
Best of luck -- one of the best loglines I've read here in awhile...
