'''Athiva''', officially the '''Archontia of Athiva''' (Athivan: ''Αρχοντία τῆς Αθήβα''), is an island country located | '''Athiva''', officially the '''Archontia of Athiva''' (Athivan: ''Αρχοντία τῆς Αθήβα''), is an island country located off the coast of Sarpedon in the Istroyan Sea, consisting of the island Kleftos. It lies 450 km east of [[Caphiria]] 335 km north of [[Asteklion]], with its closest point 173 km off of the coast of mainland Sarpedon. While its only official languages are Athivan and Istroyan, approximately ten percent of its population also speaks Acirian at least on a conversational level. Its capital and largest city is Kleftopolis. | ||
Inhabited since at least XXXX BC, the island eventually gave rise to the ancient Athivan civilisation, which the modern state derives its name from. The civilisation's location on an island meant an eventual lack of resources, which in turn encouraged Athivans to acquire them from the mainland, giving rise to the highly-developed military culture that the Athivans were known for. During the Second Great War, a military coup lead by General Alkios Demethanos took over the government, leading the country until the Athivan Revolution in the late 60s. The Athivan Revolution then lead to the [[Operation Jailbird|liberation of Athiva]], giving rise to the Archontia of Athiva in 1969, which rules the country to this day. | |||
A popular tourism spot, the Athivan economy has begun to rise with the rising service sector to accompany the otherwise agriculture dependant nation. | |||
