Bulkh, officially the Representative Republic of Bulkh, is a minor power sovereign country on the southwestern coast of the Daria region in Audonia. It is bound by the Sea of Kandahar in the north, Battganuur to the north, the Nassarine Bay and the Bulhkawan Bay to the west, the Bay of Oduniyye to the south, and Pursat to the southeast. It came to its modern iteration after the Emirati War, in 1897 both geographically and politically. It is a constitutional republic with consociational representation, shared between the Arab Muslim population, Bedouin nomads, and the polity of Christians. While suffrage is universal and by secret ballot, it is still common for voters to generally follow their tribal leaders lead on issues. Bulkh is a member of the League of Nations, and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement.

Its primary exports are crude oil, Construction aggregate, fish, and cork. It maintains a capitalist economy but with certain controls and subsidies around critical industries like food, water, energy, healthcare, and transportation, which are typically managed as a public-private ventures.


Many scholars have criticized its governance, economy, and politics, arguing that it is merely a client of Burgundie.

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.
