The Mahdah Lorist Republic (Mahdah Lorist Respublika), commonly shortened to MLR, is a country located on the coasts of both the Inner and Anagonian Seas, comprised of both severely dry and warm desert towards the interior and more temperate coastal regions where the majority of inhabitants live. The MLR neighbors Lothia (directly), Marquesan (maritime borders near the island of Pandora), Amaldorei (maritime borders near the island of Pandora), and Aureumterra (maritime border), and is the fourth least-populated state of those neighbors, only having a larger population than Amaldorei. It possesses the smallest amount of directly owned territory amongst its neighbors (with the exception of Amaldorei) as well.
Mahdah has been inhabited continuously for one of the longest periods in human history, with remnants of developed coastal civilizations being discovered which date back to the 3,000BCE-2,600BCE Period, and remnants of interaction between early peoples and Lothians dating back to the 5,000BCE period, when the settled civilizations which would form the Āturpātakān first came into existence. The Āturpātakān would begin to culturally fuse with Lothian and Nordurlander immigrants, eventually creating the modern Mahdan culture as it is currently recognized, although hold-out populations of all three groups continue to exist in the region, owing to historical separations in regards to property, economic prosperity, and cultural primacy which have not been fully resolved. Mahdah would, for much of history, be under the role of an entrenched scholar-bureaucracy organized upon the principles of the Yanğın Yolu (Fire Road) religion, these bureaucrats exhibiting a stronger political and economic role than the rulers of the many states which would come to occupy the region (excluding a period from 1260CE-1340CE, when the self-proclaimed İmperatorların Kralı (King of Emperors) Űlvi Almsteldt would establish a short lived state functioning off Veldikirkjan religious elements, which claimed to have a more direct connection to Cnut I then the currently ruling Hæstirétt), although their power would begin to fade in the modern era with the entrenchment of merchants and other economic figures in the halls of power.
Mahdah would become a revolutionary state shortly after the Great War, which it participated in on the part of Marquesan. The industrial measures taken to attempt to create a modernized state armaments industry which had not existed before that point, and mass military purges owing to poor command in those few battles upon Pandora it was allowed to participate in, created an entrenched anti-state worker and military element, who would united to abolish the monarchy of the time, then lead by Nərmin Sərvərlı. This would succed, but the new revolutionary, collectivizing state would find few friends and no allies, being placed under a blockade by Aureumterra and its allies. In an attempt to break this encirclement, a clique of young reformers in both the military and student bodies would agitate for the adoption of Lorist principles, with reforms taking place throughout the late 1970's and early 1980's, until the state's first post-revolution elections in 1992, which coincided with the state changing its name from the UMSR to the MLR.
Mahdah in the modern era is a Lorist Democracy, with elections being held between parties and factions emphasizing certain aspects of Lorist policy. It has been suffering an economic downturn since the withdrawl of economic aid from Azura and Janpia in the early 2020's, owing to changing geopolitical priorities.

Mahda would join the Great War under the leadership of Fuad Abbaslı, an industrialist and opportunist with a connection to the then-marginalized Yanğın Scholar-Elite, who saw contribution to the defense of Pandora as the best means of squeezing concessions from both Aureumterra and Marquesan in the post-war period. Fuad had been appointed as Kansler by the Ərtoğrullı Dynasty, which had ruled the state since the early 1880s after the destruction of the previously notable Abbasquluoğlu Dynasty. The state-entity was greatly unprepared to enter the war, owing to lacking industrialization and material capability to develop large industry, and it would be forced to take damaging loans to purchase Marquesan equipment.
While it was easy to blame these failures on incompetence, it to some extent was more the fault of a bureaucratic system grasped by a religious divide which refused renewal or moderation for the purposes of national defense, leaving the government to foot the bill when these forces prevented it from taking action before this conflict began to reform such. The state had, before the conflict began, been unable to economically provide for the populace - and the conflict did, for a time, alleviate such woes, owing to the greater purchasing of oil by Marquesan and its allies. This period of success however, would be followed by collapse as the loans began to take their due on the state's capability to function.
The attempts at fixing this issue through the expansion of forced extractive labor in oil producing areas and attempts at encouraging of the military population to "live off the land" in the form of the seizure of resources from populations opposed to the war would cause the then-fledgling leftist opposition to the Fuad government to catalyze, causing the revolutionary grouping known as the MİL (Milli İnqilab Liqası) to form from a number of other early revolutionary groups, eventually coming to be lead by Nərmin Sərvərlı.

Healthcare
The UMSR would establish a free public healthcare system shortly after its own revolution, with a universal healthcare system being fully established during the reforms of the early 1980's. In the modern period, the MLR has a life expectancy of around 68-70 years at birth for both males and females, and has a large amount of medical personnel for the size of the nation and its budget, although consistent shortages of key medical equipment owing to the Aureumterran blockade have rendered certain issues impossible to cure within-country. While the MLR does not rival more developed nations in the field of healthcare, owing to a lack of budget and equipment as previously mentioned, it has been generally successful in eradicating large-scale disease outbreaks, being one of the first nations to eradicate mother-to-child transmission of Syphilis.
The population of the MLR generally does not receive the sustenance required for proper growth, owing to a lack of agricultural space and growth of animal life or other sources of protien. With this stated, obesity is not a major concern for much of the population, owing to both said issues and to smaller portion sizes and common traditions of fasting or otherwise reducing food intake on a daily basis. The minimum wage given to all workers in the state is able to purchase food, preventing larger-scale issues of per-house income being spent upon such.
