Vardah is an island located in the Gulf of Kandara. It's largest city is Poti, which is divided into West and East Poti. Poti is the de-facto capital of the entire island and the Republic of Vardah. The entirety of the island, just like Poti, is divided into west and east, west being administered by the Federation of Kloistan and the east by the Republic of Kandara. Other significant cities include: Ordu, Kamphaeng and Chai Buri.
The island's history of sovereignty goes back to when the Empire of Burgundie has released Kandara (which also controlled Vardah) from its colonialism in 1795, shortly after the neighboring Kloi Empire took advantage of this and invaded Kandara, including Vardah. Klois have took control of the entire island and the entirety of northern Kandara until 1915, when the Kloi civil war resulted in socialist victory. Since Kandara and the Kandaran people helped the socialists greatly in victory, they were given their formerly invaded lands in return, including an eastern part of Vardah.
