Nation of Kandar
Ervenian Era, 1051 AB
The Nation of Kandar is a wealthy nation and is is renowned for its exquisite wines, thriving maritime trade, and a shrewd merchant class.
Kandar, is a nation founded on the principles of Common Rule and ultimately a democracy where every citizen has a voice in government through elected representatives. Kandarians believe in self-governance and consider their nation the cradle of freedom (While Kuusündis treat this as a blatant ignorance).
Structure
Kandar is a parliamentary democracy founded on three core principles: religious tolerance, government transparency, and a thriving economic system. To uphold these principles, public servants are subject to close scrutiny and held accountable for their actions.
The Common Voice
The nation's governing body is the The Common Voice, comprising 250 representatives elected by the citizenry every five years. Each municipality within Kandar elects a single representative to the Council, and each major guild also holds a representative seat. The Common Voice oversees all aspects of governance, from municipal leadership to military operations.The First Citizen
The First Citizen, chosen by the Common Voice members after each election, leads the Common Voice and heads the Executive Office.Culture
Kandarians are fiercely proud of their nation and their hard-won freedom. A history of oppression under the Old Ansko Empire and The Ranas of Bayjan instilled a deep-seated resentment that ultimately fueled their struggle for independence. Kandarians are determined to safeguard their freedom and equality, proving to the world that their ideals can endure any hardship.
Kandarians are known for their strong opinions and diverse perspectives on national governance. However, they share fundamental beliefs: a commitment to reasoned debate, respect for individual expression, and a belief that actions speak louder than words. These shared values are crucial to upholding Common Rule and ensuring the enduring freedom of the nation.
Assets
A Powerful Banking System
The nation's leading mercantile houses, operate influential banks that provide accessible and affordable credit to the Kandarian populace. This fosters economic growth, but those who exploit the system face severe consequences, including exile.History
While being officially founded by Aileno in 905 AB, the nation truly flourished after The Fall of the Ansko Empire and the reparations that they received from the Grand Empire of Arkolion thereafter.
Demography and Population
The Kandarians are living largely with many Irral Kitril.
Military
Kandar's military is overseen by 25 Consuls, members of the Common Voice who possess executive control over the nation's armed forces.
Trade & Transport
Katnar's strategic location has transformed it into a major trading hub in the west. The nation's prosperous economy is largely attributed to its lucrative wine trade, fueled by fertile vineyards and a highly competitive approach to international commerce.
Infrastructure
Kandar's economy thrives on a foundation of accessible credit and robust trade. A network of influential banks, most of them are somewhat owned by Rich Shore of Abaisgar, provides affordable loans to the populace, fostering economic growth. However, corruption within this system is considered a grave betrayal, punishable by exile and asset forfeiture.
