Niater, officially the Free State of Niater, is a landlocked country in central North Thrismari. It is bordered by Kelvieslav to the north, Aberilia to the west, Saukania, Zangoaistan, and Ola Naathim to the south, and Ar-Sayhurbah and Eastern Yuguistan to the east. Niater is a climate-diverse and mountainous state, with the north housing the Nordgipfel mountain range, and being classified as tropical, and the south being home to the Zuidpeak mountain range. It also shares a border with the Kristallsee, which it shares with Ar-Sayhurbah. As a federal republic, Niater delegates power on both the National and Local level, with each of the 16 states having their own Minister-President (Ministerpräsident) and State Parliament (Landtag, Staatsparlement). It's 16 federal states (Bundesland, Staten) comprise a combined area of 123,456 km² (12,345.67 sq mi) and is home to just over 33 million (as of 2021 estimates). Most of the country's population is spread out, even in more mountainous areas, with the capital and largest city being located in Eastern Niater, Württemberg, home to a large majority of the Niaterisch population in Niater, followed by its second de jure capital and second largest city, Haarlem (Harlem), which is home to a large majority of the Niaterse population. Other major cities are Den Haag, Baden-Baden, New Württemberg, sister cities Niater-Nord and Niater-Zuid, Haddonfeld, and Burgfelsen.

What is now present Niater was home to many states, duchies, and territories, which were for the most part, fractured. Niater was only re-united recently following the events of December 1989, where a popular uprising successfully overthrew the government of West Niater and united with East Niater to form the modern state of Niater today.
