| | '''Yo Tarshazag''' ({{wp|Nahuatl}}: ''Yectehuan'', tr. "Good Company") is the name given to [[Lushyods#Zacapican|Zaca-Lushyod]] ethnic {{wp|organized crime}} in [[Zacapican]]. They are infamous for participating in a wide range of criminal enterprises including {{wp|Smuggling|trafficking}} of drugs, weapons, and humans. They are allied to the [[Környezet]], the Drevstranese Lush and Ludz speaking underworld with whom they often share blood ties, and are also the traditional enemies of the Purépécha-led and Nahuatl-speaking [[Western Underworld]] with whom they compete for control of not only drug production and distribution, but also in racketeering business and territories. They have contacts and influence not only in [[Zacapican]] and [[Drevstran]], but also in [[Halys]] and [[Ganzak]] (tn: maybe). Historically, there are six major Tarshazagok active in Zacapican: five [[Docetic Academy|Docetics]] and one [[Vörönyak Jews|Jewish]] although in practice a great number of outfits (Tarshazag, tr. "Company") came and went and not all infamous outfits are still active. |

| The '''United Republics of Aztapamatlan''' ({{wp|Nahuatl}}: ''Cepan Tlacatlatocayotl Aztapamatlan'', '''''CTA'''''; {{wp|Purépecha language|Purépecha}}: ''Iámendu Uniachá Astapamatan'', '''''IUA'''''), also known as the '''United Republics''' or as '''Aztapamatlan''', is a country located in southern [[Ajax#Oxidentale|Oxidentale]] bordered to the north by [[Kayahallpa]] and [[Yadokawona]], to the east by the Ooreqapi ocean, to the south by the Amictlan ocean, and to the west by the Makrian ocean. It is a {{wp|federation}} of twenty-two constituent {{wp|republics}} governing a population of 70 million inhabiting a territory of 1.8 million square kilometers across the southern reaches of the continent and several outlying islands and archipelagos. The national and constituent governments of Aztapamatlan are categorized as {{wp|democracy|democratic}} {{wp|Kritarchy|kritarchies}}, also called Judicates, in which the government is formally controlled by the courts and the leading judges of the country while sustaining democratic means of political participation and redressement of grievances. Aztapamatlan operates under a unique economic system called [[Calpollism]], a system that has been called a hybrid of {{wp|capitalism}} and {{wp|communalism}}.

| Aztapamatlan first emerged as a rising imperial power in the south of Oxidentale in the 8th century and made its mark on the region as a fanatically religious and militantly expansionist power. The territory that would become Aztapamatlan had been settled by more than ten thousand years prior, and occupied by many kingdoms and petty empires through the millenia. However, Aztapamatlan became the first ever state to unify the entire region by the end of the 10th century. Following the taming of the rugged interior of the country, the Aztapamatlan state began to sponsor maritime endeavors and oceanic exploration which would culminate in the discovery of a eastward route across the ocean to the continent of Malaio. Begining in the 15th century, Aztapamatlan governed regions of Malaio through a system of mixed vassals and areas of direct rule. The country retains some influence in this region by way of its cultural, religious and economic ties to Malaio, many of which are more recent relationships established long after the mid 18th century decline of the Aztapamatlan transoceanic empire. Periods of turmoil, cloistered isolationism and violent political revolution followed the decline of the empire and would centuries later culminate in the establishment of the United Republics government over the country in 1904 and the ascent to power of the Judicates in 1924 which would see the establishment of the modern state.

| The chief ethnic groups of the country are the {{wp|Nahuas}} who are the majority ethnicity found all across the region, and the {{wp|Purépecha|Purépechas}} who have been historically dominant in the Aztapamatlan empire. However, Aztapamatlan is extremely ethnically diverse with ten more formally recognized native ethnities and countless more unrecognized trbes and nations inhabiting the country alongside many groups who have migrated to the country from overseas. Although nahuatl was the lingua franca and is now the primary official language of the CTA, assimilation by the ethnocultural plurality never took place despite more than a century of near continuous rule by a Purépecha-Nahua state. This is in part due to the mountainous and difficult terrain of the Aztapaman hinterland which allowed the many nations inhabiting the interior to remain partially autonomous in spite of the imperial conquest many centuries ago. The religious situation in the country is similarly diverse, with many [[Religion in Aztapamatlan|competing religious doctrines]] alongside foreign faiths primarily introduced by immigrants to the country.

| | |
| The Calpollist economy of Aztapamatlan is considered to be heavily industrialized with a major investment in the {{wp|secondary sector of the economy|secondary}} and {{wp|tertiary sector of the economy|tertiary}} sectors, generally industrial manufacturing and a nascent service economy. Production of heavy machinery, machine components, and some high tech products such as semiconductor chips used in high tech manufacturing make up the bulk of the modern Aztapaman economy, although many finished products and some consumer products are also produced in the country. Financial and business services have gradually emerged in the modern Calpollist economy, forming the vanguard of a growing service sectory that spans entertainment, tourism and communications and software. Significant disparity exists between the Republics in the realm of economic development however, some regions of the country's interior may still function under an agrarian economy largely unchanged for centuries while the wealthy and populous coastal cities have become internationally significant centers of science, technology and commerce.

| ==Etymology==
| |
| Long standing names for the region in the far south of Oxidentale were ''Tsakapuka'' (or ''Tzaqapuqa''), meaning the "Land of Stones", and the Nahuatl ''Huitztlan'', simple meaning the south. The territory was never called Aztapamatlan at any point prior to the rise of the empire by the same name, and indeed Aztapamatlan to refer to the region itself rather than the state did not emerge as a common expression until the mid 11th century, many hundreds of years after the emergence of the empire. ''Aztapamatlan'' breaks down into ''Aztapamitl'' or "heron feather banner", itself a compound noun made up of ''Aztatl'' or "heron" and ''Pamitl'' or "banner", and the locative suffix ''-matlan'' meaning "underneath" or "in the grasp". Put together, the composite noun Aztapamatlan can be translated as "Under the heron-feather banner". {{wp|Herons}} and their feathers are closely associated with the god [[Xiuhtecuhtli|Curicaueri-Xiuhtecuhtli]], patron deity to the Purépecha which subsequently became the {{wp|henotheism|henotheistic}} god-head of the Aztapaman imperial cult. A standard made of white heron feathers was the symbol of religious fervor and military might in the Aztapamatlan state, closely tied with this dominant political order and thereby lending its name to the new multiethnic empire.
