Riamo, officially the Riamese Federation (Spanish: Federacion de Riamo) is a federal devolutionary nation located mostly in Antariax, with some pockets of territory across the Talsar Sea. Riamese posesions in Olivacia such as the Sefan Exclave, the Seivo exclave, and the exclave of Niona make Riamo the only country to hold major expanses of land on both Antariax and Olivacia continents.

With an area of over 800,000 km², Riamo is the 2^nd largest country in size of the Saltstil Pact, as well as being the most humid and the most Southern Antariax country. Most major urban areas, although with some notable exceptions, lay on the western and southern coasts, among which stand out those of Manresa, Portona, Sefa, Estol, Guri (the national capital), and Nashe, the largest metropolitan area of the country, with close to 9 million inhabitants.

Etymology

The etimology of the country is said to come from spanish "Río llano" (plain river), which would soon see itself modified with the heavy creole that appeared in the area by the dawn of the 19th century.

Geography

Riamo is well known for its rivers. The Koleno, which traverses along many important cities of Riamo, crosses the country from the northwestern to t and the Mali rivers. Rivers like the Nalsh, and Heinel

Due to its vast valleys and relatively plain topographyt, he Riamese economy is strongly centered around its waterways, the most prominent ones being the Koleno, Segret, Mali and Pucamayo rivers.

• Autonomous Regions: With higher autonomy than states, AR's have slightly higher legislative liberties and the opportunity to have additional official languages.

Military

See: Riamese Armed Forces Riamese Navy

Riamo's military is a noticeable player in the region, fueled mainly by a long legacy of a strong shipbuilding industry and a strong tendency to make alliances with militaristic countries. It is to be noted that Riamo offers citizens the possibility of serving in the army, while getting a salary and an education degree, with the condition of staying in the force for a minimum of 5 continuous years.

Due to the General Agreement on Co-operation and External Association established with Freice, the Riamo military is in charge of the defense of Freice. This includes having an obbligation to defend the country in terms of internal order and external affairs, as well as against natural disasters and other catastrophes. The agreement also established a shared Exclusive Economic Zone and allows for free movement in the other's waters.

Economy

The Riamese economy has a very strong natinalized sector, most of which operates as private companies but under governmental supervision and guidance. This includes heavy machinery, shipbuilding, transportation and resource extraction, among others.

Riamese economy had always been supported mainly by a strong agricultural sector, however, after the Revolution of 1960 the country experienced a massive economic boom lead by legislation towards the protectionism of local enterprises, the overexploitation of high value economical resources, benefitial geopolitical factors, foreign interventionism, and governmental investments into high-value sectors. By the 1980's, Riamo was in an unprecedented economic boom that lead companies to start exporting goods to the whole world.

By the 2010's, the most economically effective sectors included those of:

• Manufacture of fabricated goods related with public daily consumption
• Affordable public mobility
• Rural strategic resource production
• Local assets of international enterprises
• Design and construction of fixed transport structures
• Specialized silicon microchip technology
• Manufacture of vessels and equipment dedicated towards the intent of national defense

Riamo is one of the top global producers of iron, peaches, wine, military armament, microchips, cabbage, oranges and ammonia.

Transport

After the nationalization of land transportation of 1977, subways, airlines, bus companies and shipping companies, all became government-owned. After that year, and during the Mid-century dictatorships, subways and airlines would see a massive increment in their bugdet, with subways adopting the Ferrer System.

Nowadays, many political parties have a possitive view on public transportation, but specially since 2006, when major investments on mass transit systems returned to Riamo, converting the nation into a world leader in the area.

Public Transportation

See: Mass Transportation in Riamo

The Ferrer System was adopted in the early 00s as a response to the low income of public transportation nation-wide. By the System, public transportation companies would purchase land in advance of a major investment in the area. Puchased land would then be used primarily for the construction of facilities provided by the company, such as subway lines and stations, but a large part of the land would be used to construct building that would not only further boost local land value, but aserve as residential and commercial buildings leased by the transportation company to further generate income.

The Ferrer System made income from public transportation skyrocket, but was severely critiziced later due to the supposedly overexploited people living and working in these leased land. The protests, however, were listened to, and the government created a law that would reduce taxes to people living in these areas.

Because of the Ferrer System, Riamo has become the only nation whose all mass transport systems produce revenue instead of requiring funding from the federal government.

From all subway systems in Riamo, the most well known ones are:

• Guri - Capital of Riamo, possesses the largest public transportation network in the continent.
• Nashe - Being the densest city in Riamo, Nashe counts with a vast public transportation system.
• Portona - The olimpic capital of Riamo. Counts with 14 subway lines built in less than 30 years and is in continuous expansion.
