Arcadia
The Conglomerated States of the Arcad, the Iskfjord and the tribes of the Alti Mountain, more commonly known as Arcadia or the Arcadian Empire, is the most northern nation on the planet of Artoria. It is a desolate nation, where many things try to kill the inhabitants - be it the high altitude peaks of the Alti Mountains, the utter devastation of the Gap or the unyielding cold of the Arcadia peninsula.
The Arcadians are renowned for one thing more than anything else - their ability to pick fights. Over the course of the nations long and storied history, the people of Arcadia have found themselves in countless scraps; sometimes with other nations but predominantly with themselves. To be an Arcadian is to know that sometimes the only way to fix an issue is to pick up a handy piece of 2 by 4 and take out thy overlords.
Arcadia is governed by the Steward system; which can be summed up using the words "One man, One vote. The Steward is the Man, and he has the Vote"
