At its height it controlled a large swath of central Asia stretching from the Indus valley to modern day Turkmenistan in the west and Kazakhstan in the north. The nation eventually retracted due to inactivity and was then given to niqhtlight who let the nation become inactive and lost most of the nations towns. The nation was then sold to Fijiloopins with the nation bieng disbanded and incorporated into Persia. The Capitol (Bactra) was renamed Greco-Bactra and is still currently in Persia as of 9/21/2021.
