The Muwahhidnn State of Pursat, often just called Pursat, is a rapidly modernizing nation in southwestern Daria region of Audonia bordered by the Bay of Oduniyye in the west, Bulkh in the north, Umardwal and Yanuban in the east and south. It was massively urbanized in the 1980s and 90s and has a very high population for its landmass. Its executive is a president for life, but it does hold democratic elections for its legislative branch and local offices.
Pursat is a member of many international organizations like the League of Nations, the ISO, Red Crescent International, etc. and many other regulatory and economic bodies.
It is a market economy focused on exports, under the watchful eye of Burgundie, whose companies have a massive stake in the country's economic activity. It specializes in the assembly of microprocessors and cellphones, as well as the cultivation of tropical hard woods, fishing, and rubber, which also constitutes its major exports.
The people of Pursat are predominantly culturally Touareg, speak Pursi, and most practice Druzism.
Etymology
Pursat is a transliteration of the Aramaic word pirsa meaning lust with the tay merbutah the final "t" sound meaning the place lusted after. It was referred to as such because of its beautiful landscape and rich resources. Some scholars have postulated that it could have been the location of the real life inspiration for the Biblical Garden of Eden.

Occidentals, primarily of Bergendii descent and connected to historical colonial ties and economic partnerships, represent 2.4% of the population. The remaining 3% is a mix of various ethnicities. Pursi is the dominant native language, spoken by the majority. Burgoignesc is widely used in commerce, education, and government due to historical ties with Burgundie. Arabic holds significance as a liturgical language for the Muslim minority and is also used in trade and cultural exchange. Druzism is the majority faith, deeply embedded in the social fabric. A significant minority practices Islam, primarily Sunni, while a smaller population, mainly Occidental expatriates and converts, follow Christianity. The late 20th century saw rapid urbanization, resulting in high population density, particularly in the capital city, Mharran.

Economy
Pursat's tropical climate allows for a diverse range of agricultural activities. In the fertile lowlands, farmers cultivate like millet, sorghum, guar, and cassava, while terraced fields in the highlands are used for long grain rice and vegetable cultivation. Nomadic herders in the northern steppes raise livestock such as camels, goats, and sheep but due to the small scale and nomadic lifestyle these rarely make it to export markets and are consumed locally. The country possesses significant mineral resources, including copper, gold, and phosphates. Mining operations contribute to the country's export earnings, and are a major employer for the country. The financial sector is rapidly evolving, with the establishment of modern banking institutions and the growth of microfinance initiatives with investments primarily coming from Burgundie. While traditional financial practices like hawala remain prevalent in some areas, the government is actively promoting financial inclusion and modernization. The manufacturing sector is primarily focused on the assembly of electronics, particularly microprocessors and cellphones. This industry has benefited from foreign investment, primarily from Burgundie, and technology transfer, contributing to the country's economic growth and diversification. The government of Pursat hosts workshops for native skilled artisans to produce intricate textiles (rugs, wool, and tanned leather), traditional pottery (tagines in particular), jewelry, and camel and goat leather goods, which are sought after by both domestic and international consumers. Pursat's government is working with domestic and international companies to invest in tourism infrastructure that will lean into the purported Biblical connections and become a hotspot for Christian pilgrims and religious tourism. Pursat's coastline offers abundant fishing opportunities, supporting both local fishing communities and a growing aquaculture industry. Deep-sea fishing vessels primarily catch tuna and other pelagic fish, while coastal communities engage in artisanal fishing practices. Aquaculture farms, particularly shrimp farms, have emerged as a significant contributor to seafood exports. As global awareness of environmental issues grows, Pursat is actively developing its green sector. Investments in renewable energy sources like solar and wind power are reducing the country's reliance on fossil fuels, but these efforts are still nascent.
Infrastructure
Rail
Pursat uses Standard gauge, 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) as most of its rail infrastructure has been under the auspices of Burgundie and its sphere of influence in the Middle seas region, who all use that rail gauge.
Roads
Louage
A louage is a minibus shared taxi in many parts of Daria that were colonized by Burgundie. In Burgoignesc, the name means "rental." Departing only when filled with passengers not at specific times, they can be hired at stations. Louage ply set routes, and fares are set by the government. In contrast to other share taxis in Audonia, louage are sparsely decorated. Louages use a color-coding system to show customers what type of transport they provide and the destination of the vehicle. Louages with red lettering travel from one state to another, blue travel from city to city within a state, and yellow serves rural locales. Fares are purchased from ticket agents who walk throughout the louage stations or stands. Typical vehicles include: the MILCAR Jornalero, the TerreRaubeuer Valliant 130, and the CTC M237-07.
