====[[Varshan|League Occupation of Varshan]]====
The '''League Occupation of Varshan''' is a [[League of Nations]]-run administration governing the former [[Zurgite Varshan|Worshipful Realm of Varshan]] from 2024 onward after the former monarchy's dissolution after the end of the [[Final War of the Deluge]] and the subsequent signing of the [[Treaty of Electorsbourg (2024)|Treaty of Electorsbourg]]. Its primary purpose is to deconstruct the most harmful elements of Varshani culture and the [[Arzalism|Arzalist]] faith. Prior to the post-Deluge occupation, Varshani culture revolved heavily around [[Orthodox Arzalism]] and a [[Varshani caste system|caste system]] that placed a strong emphasis on religion and a warrior ethos (do note that the former Varshani caste system placed supposed demi-gods, the priesthood, and the warriors above the commoners); marriage as an institution was strict in its application of the caste system and punishments were severe (executions for males; enslavement for females). Human sacrifice was also a commonality for many religiously-based rituals. Indeed, it was these cultural aspects and practices that were among the first to be purged and deconstructed, with resistance to such measures often leading to outright revolt, by the occupation administration.
Economically, Varshan is currently dependent on the economies of the occupying governments and other countries in order to facilitate its reconstruction. Food security is deemed a great concern for the League of Nations as combatting malnutrition and famine have become major priorities for each occupation zone as well as ensuring agricultural self-sufficiency for Varshani farmers. Infrastructure is currently being reconstructed, particularly infrastructure connecting areas to bordering nations to facilitate trade, as much of it was heavily damaged during the war. The former Varshani capital of [[Anzo]] is placed under "direct international administration", the only part of Varshan not a part of any of the five occupation zones (the five zones respectively belong to [[Alstin]], [[Cartadania]], [[Daxia]], [[Kiravia]], and [[Urcea]], the original signatories of the Treaty of Electorsbourg).

====[[Alstin|United Republic of Alstin]]====
The '''United Republic of Alstin''', commonly known as the United Republic or Alstin, is a sovereign state comprising the entirety of the Alstinian Isles off the coast of Crona, in addition to a number of overseas territories. Founded in 1559 as a sanctuary for Protestant refugees, exiles and outcasts as a direct consequence of the then-ongoing [[Great Confessional War]], it began its formal independent existence in 1565 as the [[Kingdom of Alstin]], with the [[House of Ryefield]] reigning until the end of the [[Alstinian Civil War]] in 1688. The following year, the United Republic was formally established, the oldest surviving federal republic, and has long championed the ideals of democracy, civil liberties and rule of law the world over.
