Aurora:Caspian
Overview
Caspian is a large nation located in Southern-Central Asia, with some claims stretching to Afghanistan and northern Caucasia. Caspian is led by Emissary MrX_1208 , the nation's first and only leader thus far. Caspian is a member of the Levantine Pact alliance. It is also a founding member of the New Orthinian Dynasty.
History
It was formed on the 17th of October, 2023, by MrX_1208, by the handing down of the Armenian government to the leadership of New Orthinia, following the Martuni crisis. The crisis was spurred by the loss of the Armenian town of Martuni, which lied at the crossroads nearby the Armenian capital of Shushi. Martuni was a town used to claim chunks that couldn’t be claimed by Shushi, but it eventually fell after the mayor stopped playing. The Armenian government had become a shell of its former self, suffering defeats in their war with Persia and losing towns left and right, but the loss of Martuni was the straw that broke the metaphorical camel’s back for many. Most members began losing their confidence in the government as a result. Now with no other solution to turn to, Armenia granted control of what remained of their nation to the user MrX_1208, which subsequently formed the Caspian Realm as a result.
Government
Caspian is a unitary state run by the Emissary, a quasi-theocratic absolute ruler, and a council of ministers. Each minister covers a certain aspect of the nation where they specialize and answers to the head of state for guidance within their sectors. Whilst there is an official governmental congress, it doesn’t truly exist yet, as there is no true reason to have it as of now.
The nation is split up into three districts: The Capitol district, which includes New Orthinia and the contiguous area surrounding it. The Volga Delta district consists of the three settlements: Solec Kujawski and Lemon Empire. The Frontier district which is the largest and least populated area consisting of the three settlements: Orchallia Inc, Kerman, and Veno.

Relations
The overall foreign policy of the nation is one of neutrality. Put simply: they like to keep to themselves, but they are willing to work with other nations should the need arise. That being said, the nation is a part of multiple organizations/alliances, with the most recent addition being the Middle Eastern Strategic Alliance (M.E.S.A). The Caspian Realm has friendly relations with nations like the Pahlavi Dynasty, Israel, Turkey, and Homorzghan. Of course, whilst they’d prefer not to have enemies, regardless, some nations are less than amenable to them. The likes of Persia (not to be confused with Imperial Persia/Pahlavi Dynasty) and Kushan have an unfriendly history with Caspian. The nation has a weary attitude about war and seeks to avoid conflict whenever possible. However, they can, have, and will fight if the situation comes to it.
Settlements
The nation is made up of nineteen (De Facto) towns/settlements: Nedia, Sofiya, Chime Springs, Reservoir Ridge, New Orthinia, Solec Kujawski, Kerman, Veno, Meadowshire, Meredith, Alamut, Meerkat, Sarab, Orchallia Inc, Astarakh, Vault-29, Carrion Crest, Lemon Empire, and Muffinistan. New Orthinia is the capital, largest, and oldest city in the country.
