''' | The '''Loa Republic''', officially known as the '''Union of the Loa Republic''', is a nation approximately 254,350 miles in area and located in southern [[Vallos]]. The term ''Loa Republic'' is considered overtly formal, and the word '''Makono Tapa''', literally "Garden Temple" in Archaic Dusuamaba, is used by the general populace to refer to their homeland. The Loa Republic is predominantly wet, tropical rainforest, with a seasonal monsoon. The environment makes for an exceptionally biodiverse region, with many of the indigenous plants and animals being found only elsewhere on Vallos and nowhere else in the world. | ||
The modern day Loa Republic is functionally a federated absolute monarchy, with two of its client nations being tribal confederacies and one being the domain of a warlord. | |||

The Loa Republic is a loose federation of five client nations; the Kingdoms of Nisoma and Kui'ikopa; the tribal confederacies of Totowa and Luitaoaka; and the State of Akanatoa. These nations form a council, commonly called the Fivefold Covenant, which regulates all federal and foreign matters. Although the Loa Republic is ''de jure'' structured like a confederacy, in practice the two Kingdoms hold such significant sway over the Union that most matters tend to be decided by Isahotainao, leader of the Fivefold Covenant. However, all the client nations are allowed to regulate matters inside of their nation as they see fit. Accordingly, the state is functionally an {{wp|absolute monarchy}} despite its name. | |||
===Governmental Structure=== | ===Governmental Structure=== | ||
The Loa Republic's provincial and administrative network has been called 'monstrously complex' and 'byzantine' at times by scholars due to the highly decentralized and interflowing pathways of administration. Many experts believe the inefficient administration has been a significant hurtle to the nations advancement, with critics pointing out how due to the immeasurably varied provinces of the nation leading to its general inefficiency. | |||
The highest governmental body is the Fivefold Covenant, which regulates all foreign matters and administrative matters between client nations, called ''Damo Itisi'' (meaning 'Grand Kingdom', which is applied to all nations regardless of if they are actually a monarchy). The ''damo itisi'' typically cannot interact with foreign powers unless sanctioned by the Fivefold Covenant (see [[Akanatoa War]]), but otherwise the council cannot regulate much other than the national budget and infrastructure that exists between the ''damo itisi''. The client nations receieve the budget and are free to distribute it between all their provinces, which are called ''itisi''. They also regulate all infrastructure and travel between ''itisis'' as well as the food supply, with the government seizing and distributing food. The ''itisis'' further regulate the layout of towns and are required to maintain all infrastructure, even if they have no control over it, receiving a budget to do so. This is all overlayed with a bureaucratic legislation process based upon census, petition and a constant interdependence between ''itisi'' and ''damo itisi''. This process is uniform across | The highest governmental body is the Fivefold Covenant, which regulates all foreign matters and administrative matters between client nations, called ''Damo Itisi'' (meaning 'Grand Kingdom', which is applied to all nations regardless of if they are actually a monarchy).

This process is uniform across the Republic, even if it is not mandated by the central council. However, the legal, medical and educational systems are regulated by the [[Kapuhenasa]], which exists beyond the government. The Henasa also has significant influence on the bureaucratic process, lending further to the claims that the Republic is a theocracy. | ||
