Flatstone (Northern Ivili: Vedşotī), or officially known as The Second Kingdom of Flatstone (Northern Ivili: Vedşotī Lege Kosīdugā), is an isolationist nation located in Southeastern Thrismari, Anteria. The nation shares a maritime border with both Kentalis and Zhousheng to the north, and another maritime border with Morrawia to the south. Vedotī is both Flatstones's capital and largest city, possessing religious ancestry as well as being the first permanent settlement on the archipelago. Other major cities may include; Onlo, Umudīn, Suntuga, Umoko, Īnbā, and Kumonlān. The name "Flatstone" was coined by the nations founder, Ejek Vedotin amidst the Ejek Vedotins War. It was derived from the term "Geologism", commonly used to refer to Ejek Vedotins "national religion", which would be successfully spread throughout the archipelago following the conclusion of Ejek Vedotins War.

The status of the Stonish person is defined by the faith that they follow. Flatstone, ruled by a religiously intolerant and authoritarian monarch, is dominated by the Geologist faith, a religion unique to the Stonish Archipelago. Despite the kings efforts, other faiths exist throughout Flatstone as minorities, including various branches of Catholicism, as well as Athiesm and other less significant local religions and denominations of Geology. It is estimated the no more than 40,000 have been made victims of Proselytism by the Stonish crown since 2011.

Flatstone identifies as a "federal monarchy" under the guise that the four kingdoms of the Stonish Archipelago and their peoples govern themselves autonomously and without direct interference from the Northern Ivili Clan, however, King Dag Von Stone of the Northern Ivili Clan and Flatstone collectively has violated this clause time and time again since his rise to power, most notably in the aftermath of the Stonish Civil War in 2011 when the independence of the Taverkny Clan was violated by his coalition troops and their efforts to reunite the four kingdoms under the monarchy after the fall of Flatstones republican government (circa 1960-2008).

Military

Sztōnājmī (Army)

The Sztōnājmī acts as the the main branch of Flatstone's military, consisting of the Ground Force, the National Guard and the Anti-Terrorist Unit. These three inner-branches comprise the Sztōnājmī for a total of 25,000 active servicemen as of 2020. The Sztōnājmī was founded in July of 1324 by Andesen I Von Stone to meet the nations demand for protection. Ironically enough, this force would rarely be used for conducting defensive operations but rather offensive operations on foreign soil. The Sztōnājmī has had a lasting partnership with both Szŧōndōbī and Szŧōnəŧōkōmgānī since their creation in the 30's, and the majority of Sztōnājmī's equipment comes from both of it's suppliers.
