The '''Empire of Tarsas''' is a semi-constitutional monarchy located on [[Ajax|Belisaria Minor]] bordered by [[Uluujol]] to the east and the Periclean Sea to the west. A smaller portion of the country, directly north of [[Almadis]] is located in Scipia on the west coast of the Sea of Ozeros, which borders contiguous Tarsas to the south.
The '''Empire of Tarsas''' (Heliac; Aftokratoría tou Tarsoú) is a country located on [[Ochran]] on the [[Ayarna Proxima]] peninsula. It borders the [[Periclean Sea]] to the west and north, [[Perateia]] to the southwest, [[Dzhuvenestan]] to the east, and the [[Ozeros Sea]] to the south. It covers an area of [[xxx]] square kilometers. Tarsas has a varied climate and experiences a diverse climate, with mild Mediterranean summers in the western region, temperate dry summers and wet winters in the southern region, and a cold alpine climate in the mountainous eastern region.
 
The history of human activity in Tarsas spans thousands of years, making it one of the oldest continuous major civilizations. Historical and urban settlements have been found dating back to 4500 BC. Archaeological evidence suggests that early nomadic members of the [[Nesilian people]] inhabited modern-day Tarsas. In 2500 BC, they established a unified empire known as the [[Nesilian Empire]], which encompassed eastern [[Vardana]], contemporary [[Perateia]], and western Tarsas. However, this empire was eventually supplanted by the arrival of the [[Merdian-Ayars]] from the region surrounding the [[Chuyan Sea]] around 1540 BC. This influx of nomadic settlers encroached upon eastern Tarsas and began to challenge Nesilian territory from 1540 to the 900s BC. By the 850s BC, Helianic settlers from [[Gythaca]] commenced settling on the Periclean coasts of Tarsas, encountering [[Meridan-Ayar]] cities that had emerged. The entire region underwent profound transformation with the arrival of the [[Azagartian Empire]], which initiated a conquest of contemporary Tarsas from modern day Dzhuvenestan.
 
Throughout the 370s, the region came under the control of [[Leon the Great]] and his general [[Atticus Phenor]], who established the [[Phenorian Empire]], which endured until AD 96, lasting until the arrival of the [[Latium|Latin Empire]] in 96. Subsequently, they conquered the entire [[Ayarna Proxima]] by 132. Tarsas remained under the rule of the Latin Empire until 485 when [[Leo III Iovianus]] was deposed from the throne and proclaimed “Latin Emperor in the East.” From this point onward, Tarsas was under the rule of the [[Perateia|Empire in the East]], with portions changing hands between Perateia and the [[Mesogeia|Mesopontian Empire]]. This lasted until 927, when the [[Bayarid Empire]] swept through, conquering all of eastern Tarsas up to the [[100 Fortresses of the East]], which served as a buffer until the succeeding [[Sharashir Khanate]], the Bayarid successor state, which was conquered in 1065. In 1134, Prince XX of the eastern Exarchate of Tarsos declared independence, establishing the modern state of Tarsas. He assumed the title of [[Autokrator of Tarsas]] and founded his government on a blend of Ayar and Hellianic traditions, integrating them into the existing Perateian bureaucracy. Initially encompassing a quarter of the present-day Tarsas region, the Tarsan Empire expanded significantly by the 1400s, encompassing much of the [[Ayarna Proxima]].

===The Teisped Empire===
The first period of unification between the warring city states came with the invasion of Emperor Teispes I, who crossed into Scipia at the Straits of Parma and seized Eubea in 665 after a protracted siege. The [[Despot of Eubea]], Adorinkios IV, called on the Hellenic colonies at Thracina, Helikiors, Spinarikos, and Merkatos to his aid against the Teispes invaders. He took his remaining forces from the fallen city and met up with generals of the cities under General Antiphos Parminides. The two armies met in central [[Almadis]] at the Plains of Hesphertes that same year. Hellenic battle tactics proved to be at a significant disadvantage against the light Teispid troops on open ground. Heavy Hellenic {{wp|phalanx}} formations proved effective against cavalry but faltered quickly against the massed Teispid archers. The forces of Antiphos Parminides and the five combined city-states were soon overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of the enemy.

{{main|Demographics of Tarsas}}


According to the official statistical body of the Hellenic Empire, the Imperial Statistics Authority, the country's total population in 2017 was 47,383,492. The birth rate in 2017 stood at 20.3 per 1,000 inhabitants, which was consistent with similar data from 2012. The mortality rate held steadily at 8.7 per 1000 inhabitants. Estimates from 2018 show this trend so far holding steadily with previous years.
Hellenic society has changed rapidly over the last several decades, showing a decrease in birth rates from the last statistical year of the 20th century (1998). The fertility rate of 4.56 is above replacement levels, with the median age remaining around 25.2 years. In 2012, 8.71 percent of the population were 65 years old and older, 60.12 percent between the ages of 15 and 64 years old, and 31.17 percent were 14 years old and younger. By 2017, the proportion of the population age 15-64 rose while 14 years and younger and 65 years and older decreased by 4% each respectively.
Marriage rates rose slightly from 75 per 1,000 inhabitants in 2012 to 77 per 1,000 in 2017. Moreover, divorce rates have seen an increase from 79.8 per 1,000 marriages in 2012 to 85.3 per 1,000 marriages in 2017.


===Migration===
===Migration===
Throughout the 20th century, several million Hellenic citizens migrated from [[Bahktar]] in the wake of the revolt. This significantly shrank the Tarsan Diaspora though sizable populations remain in [[Bahktar]], [[Talakh]], and [[Yisrael]]. Through Hellenic Citizenship, smaller numbers of people from former conquered lands have applied for and emigrated to Tarsas. It is estimated that 510,238 people remain in Tarsas without Hellenic Citizenship. Most of these are on various [[Immigration and Citizenship in the Hellenic Empire|Permits]]. Because of the long waiting list and difficult financial and monetary requirements for Hellenic citizenship, there are families living within the borders of the empire who have stayed for years but been unable to become citizens.
The largest concentration of non citizens currently reside in Sidon in the Sojourner Quarter, a portion of the city constructed by Marcus II in 1985 to house arrivals from other nations who wish to apply for asylum or other permits. It is believed there are roughly 420,000 legal and illegal migrants in Sidon, comprising 20% of the total population. Other migrant population concentrations are the [[Bahktar]] community in [[Castra Legionis]], which has roughly 30,000 individuals. These are comprised of illegal immigrants and legal asylum seekers that are applying for citizenship based on historical grounds.


There are roughly 50,000 [[Marad|Maradi]] in [[Kios]], who remain from the time of the [[Emirate of Kios]] and comprise 8% of the local population. Roughly 40% of them have received citizenship, though many have not. They have been tolerated historically via decree by various monarchs.
The path to citizenship for migrants who haven't left remain a major [[Hellenic Senate|Senate]] issue with various parties proposing legislation to tackle the issue, either via deportations or naturalization.


===Cities===
===Cities===
Two-thirds of the population live in urban areas. The largest and most influential metropolitan centres are those of Marvius and Salona with metropolitan populations of approximately 7 million and 4 million inhabitants respectively. Other prominent cities with urban populations above 100,000 inhabitants include those of Neapolis, Pylos, Sidon, Civitas Tarsae, and Zakros.


The table below lists the largest cities in Tarsas, by population contained in their respective contiguous built up urban areas, which are either made up of many municipalities or are contained within a larger single municipalitThe results come from the preliminary figures of the population census that took place in 2017.

The '''Decree On Matters of Religion''' denotes the [[Tarsan Orthodox Church]] as the primary religion of Tarsas. However, it does not mandate any sort of religious adherence among the nobility or the general population. Church adherents makes up roughly 85% of the population, or 40,275,968 people. Roughly two thirds of this number identified themselves as practicing Christians who regularly attended church. According to census information, 40.5% of this number described themselves as "very religious", keeping Christian laws and practices and citing them as a primary influence for their worldview and decisions. Other Christian groups present in the nation are [[Pope of the Fabrian Catholic Church|Fabrian Catholicism]] (993,210) and [[Alban Christianity]] (1,375,965). The largest Catholic community is based in [[Pylos]] at the [[National Shrine to the Immaculate Conception]] where the [[Archbishop of Pylos]] serves as the highest ranking Tarsan Catholic clergyman. Adherents to [[Alban Christianity]] are concentrated in the city of [[Ithaca]] and presided over by the [[Itarus Septa|Patriarchate of Ithaca]]. Alban Christianity has seen a slight increase in adherents since [[Romulus X]] married [[Florentia Belliena]], a practicing Alban.
According to a national religious poll, 81% of Tarsan citizens responded that they "believe in a God". According to other sources, 50.6% of Tarsans describe themselves as "very religious". The survey also found that just 2.5% never attend a church or temple.
The second most significant religious group are Tarsan Pagans with 5% of the population professing. The census found that 2,369,175 people claimed to be apart of a Pagan group. Pagans are concentrated in Vasilki where the Grand Acropolis serves as the primary worshiping place of the Pagan gods.
The third largest religious group is {{wp|Zoroastrianism}} with 1,895,340 adherents. It is most present among the {{wp|Indo-Iranians|Indo-Iranian}} tribesmen that reside in the [[Haderac Desert]] since their migration to [[Scipia]]. The vast majority of Zoroastrians live among the [[Grand Fire Temple of Himera|Grand Fire Temple]] in the city of [[Himera]]. The Priest of the Fire Temple, [[Arash Ormaz]], is considered the face of the Tarsan Zoroastrian community.
[[Azdarin]] is the smallest religious group in the empire with only 473,835 adherents. Azdarin was heavily suppressed within Hellenic borders outside of the former [[Emirate of Kios]], where it was tolerated after the conquest. It has almost been entirely contained in that city due to various historical conflicts with Yen states and historical hostility towards Azdarin. A prominent Mufti, Zakalos Heraclan, is the most senior Yen cleric in Tarsas at the [[Mosque of Kios]].
A prominent historical group in Tarsas have always been [[Tarsan Jews]]. The Hellenic Empire historically was a major center for Jews fleeing persecution during the [[Latium|Latin Empire]]. There are 402,304 Jews in Tarsas which are centered around the city of [[Marvius]] and many are members of the upper class in the city. Tarsan Jews are a distinct ethnic as well as religious group and have a significant ''{{wp|synogogue|shul}}'' in Marvius, which was funded by Aristophanes IV in 1700 as a gift to the Jewish community for their loyalty. The Jewish community of Tarsas is one of the oldest in the world.


===Languages===
===Languages===
The first textual evidence of the Hellenic language dates back to 15th century BC and the arrival of Hellenic colonists, which brought with them language and learning. Hellenic was a widely spoken lingua franca in the Perclean world, and would eventually become the official parlance of the Hellenic Empire along with [[Latium|Latin]].


Tarsas is today relatively homogeneous in linguistic terms, with a large majority of the native population using Hellenic as the official academic and business language and Latin as another common language. Almost every Hellenic Citizen is {{wp|bilingual}} and it is a requirement to learn both languages in schools. There are three distinct dialects spoken throughout the Hellenic Empire. the first, known as Argan Hellenic, is the main academic and national dialect. It was installed such by Arga I, first Hellenic Emperor. In the [[Haderac Desert]], Haderac Hellenic is spoken by many of the local citizens and tribesmen and differs from Argan Hellenic. In [[Thrakios]], Thrakian Hellenic is the main dialect. Each language group is understandable by speakers of the other dialects but has regional distinctions.
The other main spoken language is [[Latium|Latin]]. It is nearly as widely spoken as the various dialects of Hellenic with every student required to have a grasp on the language prior to graduation. Mainly kept alive by the old Latin noble families, the language is spoken more in casual settings and conversations with fewer businesses and institutions conducting business in the language over Hellenic. Significant numbers of Latin speakers who mostly speak the language remain in the [[Latium|Latin]] founded coastal cities along the [[Periclean Sea]].
Near the western borders there are also some Arabic–speaking groups, locally known as Heloarabioc-speaking, most of whose members identify ethnically as Hellenes. The Jewish community in Tarsas has traditionally spoke Yisraeli Hebrew, today maintained by a few thousand speakers. In certain small communities where the large majority or all of the population are [[Tarsan Jews]], they have been allowed to place street signs and other important information in their own language.


===Education===
===Education===
Tarsans have a long tradition of valuing and investing in paideia (education), which was upheld as one of the highest societal values in the Hellenistic world. The first Scipian institution described as a university was founded in fifth-century Sidon and has operated in various forms ever since.
Compulsory education in Tarsas comprises primary schools (Δημοτικό Σχολείο, Dimotikó Scholeio) and gymnasium (Γυμνάσιο). Nursery schools (Παιδικός σταθμός, Paidikós Stathmós) are popular but not compulsory. Kindergartens (Νηπιαγωγείο, Nipiagogeío) are now compulsory for any child above four years of age. Children start primary school aged six and remain there for six years. Attendance at gymnasia starts at age 12 and lasts for three years. After gymnasia, students attend predatory schools for three years where they are prepared for either university or a vocational program. These schools teach life skills as well as educational skills.
Alternatives to state education are generally privately funded boarding schools. These schools are equipped and prepared to offer all levels of education throughout the student's school career from primary school to university and are generally attended by the nation's elite. The most famous is the [[Gilded Academy]] though numerous others also exist. The Hellenic Empire is renowned for its various boarding schools and students from across the world are known to attend.
The education system also provides special kindergartens, primary, and secondary schools for people with special needs or difficulties in learning. There are also specialist gymnasia and high schools offering musical, theological, and physical education.
The Hellenic Empire has a high literacy rate of 99.1%, it is one of the more literate countries in the world. This is considered to be because of the mandatory educational policy which has been in place since 1875.


===Healthcare===
===Healthcare===
Tarsas' system of hospices, called Therapef̱tí̱rio, dates from medieval times. These are funded via a combination of state funding and private religious charities. Since the 1880s, reforms and provisions have ensured a balanced health care system. Health insurance coverage is provided by a wide variety of private corporations and a limited state program for veterans and orphan children. According to the World Health Committee, the Hellenic Empire's health care system was 45% government-funded and 55% privately funded as of 2017. In 2016, Tarsas spent 6.3% of its GDP on health care. Life expectancy is roughly 81 years for men and 87 years for women, and the infant mortality rate has remained very low. (4 per 1,000 live births).
In 2010, the principal cause of death was cardiovascular disease, at 41%, followed by malignant tumours, at 26%. In 2008, about 56,000 had been infected with HIV/AIDS. According to a 2005 survey, 12% of Tarsan adults are regular smokers.

The Empire of Tarsas (Heliac; Aftokratoría tou Tarsoú) is a country located on Ochran on the Ayarna Proxima peninsula. It borders the Periclean Sea to the west and north, Perateia to the southwest, Dzhuvenestan to the east, and the Ozeros Sea to the south. It covers an area of xxx square kilometers. Tarsas has a varied climate and experiences a diverse climate, with mild Mediterranean summers in the western region, temperate dry summers and wet winters in the southern region, and a cold alpine climate in the mountainous eastern region.

The history of human activity in Tarsas spans thousands of years, making it one of the oldest continuous major civilizations. Historical and urban settlements have been found dating back to 4500 BC. Archaeological evidence suggests that early nomadic members of the Nesilian people inhabited modern-day Tarsas. In 2500 BC, they established a unified empire known as the Nesilian Empire, which encompassed eastern Vardana, contemporary Perateia, and western Tarsas. However, this empire was eventually supplanted by the arrival of the Merdian-Ayars from the region surrounding the Chuyan Sea around 1540 BC. This influx of nomadic settlers encroached upon eastern Tarsas and began to challenge Nesilian territory from 1540 to the 900s BC. By the 850s BC, Helianic settlers from Gythaca commenced settling on the Periclean coasts of Tarsas, encountering Meridan-Ayar cities that had emerged. The entire region underwent profound transformation with the arrival of the Azagartian Empire, which initiated a conquest of contemporary Tarsas from modern day Dzhuvenestan.

Throughout the 370s, the region came under the control of Leon the Great and his general Atticus Phenor, who established the Phenorian Empire, which endured until AD 96, lasting until the arrival of the Latin Empire in 96.

Climate

Tarsas contains various climate zones, including the Hot-summer Mediterranean, the Hot semi-arid, the Cold semi-arid, and the Hot summer. In the central region of the nation, at lower elevations on the western side of the Atlos Mountains, the warm summer subtype of the humid continental climate is prevalent.

Coastal regions surrounding the Perseid Straits, the Ozeros Sea, and the Periclean Sea experience hot and dry summers with temperatures exceeding 72°F during the summer months and dropping to as low as 32°F in January and February. Major coastal cities and cities some distance inland, such as Aenonesos, all benefit from the fair weather this climate provides for agriculture and tourism.

Economy

The economy of Tarsas is a highly developed social market economy. It is one of the most developed economies in Ochran.

In 2016, Tarsas recorded a high trade surplus worth $120 billion. Tarsas is one of the largest exporters in the world with 820 billion in goods and services exported in 2016. The service sector contributes around 70% of the total GDP, industry 21%, and agriculture 8%. Exports account for 41% of national output. The top 10 exports of Tarsas are copper, cobalt, wine and grapes, petroleum products, chemical goods, electronic products, electrical equipment, pharmaceuticals, transport equipment, basic metals, food products, and rubber and plastics.

Tarsas is rich in timber, rubber, salt, uranium, copper, oil, and cobalt. Energy in Tarsas is sourced predominantly by nuclear power (90%), followed fossil fuels (5%), and renewable energy (5%). Always traditionally a leader in nuclear power, Tarsas possesses one of the largest grids of nuclear power in Ajax. Originally a pioneer of the lead-bismuth fast reactor, it was one of the first states to adopt nuclear power widespread. Renewable energy is on the rise after the Supplementary Energy Subsidies Act in 2014 where the Hellenic Senate passed a bill that introduced subsidies for the introduction of renewable energy.

70 percent of all Tarsan companies belong to the Tarsan middle class, small and medium-sized enterprises, which are mostly family-owned. The other 30 percent belong to the nobility or aristocracy, with a large number of peers owning and maintaining high profit and high revenue enterprises.

Infrastructure

Tarsas is one of the world's largest consumers of energy with 567.3 terrawatt-hours consumed in 2017. The primary method of energy generation in the country is nuclear power. There are twenty-five nuclear facilities in Tarsas that operate two to four reactors each. Many of these were constructed and brought online under Diocetus II and Marcus II. An additional two plants have come online since 2010 under Romulus X. These were funded under the Hadraxion Plan that was voted and passed in the Senate in 1965.

Oil and coal accounts for an additional 5% of power generation, though the final fossil fuel reliant facilities will be closed by mid 2019 when the Michael Caligula Nuclear Power Plant opens.

Renewable energy has been on the rise in the country with the passage of the Supplementary Energy Subsidies Act in 2014. The Periclean Tidal Generation Facility was opened in 2015 and contributes a small amount of energy to the electric grid of Marvius. Wind power and solar power are on the rise after subsidies were offered to large land owners for adding limited solar generation abilities to new buildings and introduced wind turbines on large farms and expanses of empty land. Wind energy has been slow to adopt due to the national requirement for turbines that do not post a threat to birds.
