The name Prymont comes from the Rus', who originally settled in the area in the eighth century. A combination of the words 'pry' and 'mont', the full name was given due to the Rus' prying into the northern mountainous regions and finding a haven from their pursuers. Today, the United States is a founding member of the [[TCSI]], the Trans-Continental Science Initiative; [[ATARA]], the Argic-Thalassan-Alharun Regional Association; and [[Tricontinental_Defence_Treaty_Organisation|TRIDENT]], the Tricontinental Defence Treaty. Prymont also co-founded [[WARD]], the Western Argis Aerospace Defence Command. | The name Prymont comes from the Rus', who originally settled in the area in the eighth century.

The United States of Prymont, commonly known as the United States or Prymont, is a federal republic composed of eight states, a federal district, and several territories. Located in northern Argis, Prymont shares the neighbourhood with The Hellenic Rus to the west and Ahrana to the southwest. With a population of just over twelve million and a land area of approximately 103 thousand square miles, Prymont is one of the most sparsely populated countries on the continent. The capital is New Halsham, however the largest city by population is Canastota, which serves as the capital of the largest inhabited state, Ostport. Prymont is currently headed by President George Duval, the first President to be elected since the country's emergence from a socialist regime. Due to its northern location, the majority of Prymont's twelve million inhabitants reside in the southern states. The region is often battered by harsh weather during the winter, and bleak, milder temperatures during warmer months. Its naturally cold climate has led to a large infrastructure budget to ensure the country continues to function during extreme weathers.
The name Prymont comes from the Rus', who originally settled in the area in the eighth century. A combination of the words 'pry' and 'mont', the full name was given due to the Rus' prying into the northern mountainous regions and finding a haven from their pursuers. Today, the United States is a founding member of the TCSI, the Trans-Continental Science Initiative; ATARA, the Argic-Thalassan-Alharun Regional Association; and TRIDENT, the Tricontinental Defence Treaty. Prymont also co-founded WARD, the Western Argis Aerospace Defence Command.
