ATANZIA (Southwestern Continent)
State of Eranshashr
Government: Absolute Monarchy
Ideology: Aristocratic
Population: 60,000,000
Description: The only country on Atanzia who could legitimately threaten the Vaahna Hegemony's power in the region, Eranshashr is a monarchy run by the Sultan Burak Iskender et'Hakan III. They have a sizable army and powerful navy, though they are not well established in regional politics as of yet.
Empire of Suli
Government: Constitutional Monarchy
Ideology: Democracy
Population: 48,000,000
Description: The Empire of Suli is one of the few Atanzian nations left that avoided the strong bout of imperialism that afflicted the continent in the early 1910's. The people are still loyal to Emperor Hassie Halil, but like most Atanzian countries are often fighting corruption and famine even with a strong democratic political system. The Empire has historically had strong ties with the Eranshashr State in the form of trade agreements and a Defensive Alliance. They have a large, volunteer army and a small outdated navy and air force filled with Europian type aircraft.
Vaahna Hegemony
Government: Dictatorship
Ideology: Aristocracy
Population: 81,000,000
Description: The Vaahna Hegemony is a huge, landlocked power on Atanzia that exerts its will on the other powers by strongly influencing trade. They are often at odds with the Empire of Suli who disagrees with the way that the Vaa, so called President of the Hegemony treats his people. They fought briefly in the 1880's, the Empire of Suli having been supported by the Eranshashr State, but settled little. The Vaahna have a huge army of over 300,000 conscripts and soldiers but their technology is dated and inefficient.
State of Juniland
Government: Theocracy
Ideology: Populist
Population: 39,000,000
Description: The nation of Juniland is the newest country to declare independence in Atanzia. Their nations extends more into the interior of the Atanzian continent but it is nothing but sand and sun. The people of Juniland are highly religious and follow their leader, the Grand Shah through all political and religious ideals. They just ended a war of independence with the Kingdom of Reichenburg, whom put little effort into the war after discovering that Junilands resources were not all that they were initially thought to be. They have allegedly just recommissioned a division of captured Reichenburg tanks for their own use, though it is unknown whether this is true or not.
Mazique Republic
Government: Republic
Ideology: Democracy
Population: 19,000,000
Description: A previous colony of the Republic of Mille Sessau in the 1890's when Sessau still had a blue water port, the Mazique Republic was given its own independence after they showed that they were capable of self rule. They are a small country with a comparatively small volunteer army, relatively low crime and a small navy of older Sessauan designed ships. President Ngobu Sydney has the monetary and political support of Sessauan Prime Minister Larbalastier as well. The Republic has always had rough interactions with the Eranshashr State, leading to a feeling of distrust between the two.
Rahili
Government: Absolute Monarchy
Ideology: Populist
Population: 16,000,000
Description: Rahili is a small coastal nation known more for its exotic fish and charisma of King Dyu Bali than they are for politics. They prefer to keep to themselves and the size of their armed forces proves it. The country is a proverbial bread basket, as the Rahilian Inlet has some of the best fishing in the world and the Rahilian economy depends on continued export of these flavorful, plentiful fish.
State of Accu
Government: Theocracy
Ideology: Nationalism
Population: 27,000,000
Description: The State of Accu is a long lasting state and is probably one of the oldest nations on Atanzia, having declared independence in 1869. They are a heavily religious society, a trait they have carried with them since the Middle Ages. They have a reasonably large army for the nations smaller population density, and they are in a Defensive Alliance with the state of Rahili in exchange for a discounted price on Rahilian fish. The State of Accu's development has always been supported by the Eranshashr State, even when it first declared independence.
