Bakyern (Bakyernian: Laakya) officially the Greater State of Bakyern (Bakyernian: Laakya Rikestii ( listen)) is a sovereign state located in the Thuadian continent, bordered by New Sebronia, Mustelarian Federation, Junterland, and Qazhshava. At an area of over 2 million square kilometers, Bakyern is one of the largest nations in Anteria and Thuadia by size alone. Some of the nation's largest cities are Kalvat which is the political and economic capital, Delserd and Lidhoslborn. The population of Bakyern ranges into 105 million, with a large population density in the Eastern regions and Rikbaltens such as Ostasvern and Trånes. Bakyern has been considered a diverse nation of religions and ethnic groups, especially in the Eastern Regions where many non-Bakyernian ethnic groups as well as ethnic groups from neighboring countries who spilled over reside.

The Bakyernian nominal gross domestic product comes to 5.697 Trillion mark in ACU, making it the wealthiest country in the Sekidean Union and one of the wealthiest countries in Thuadia and Anteria. With such a powerful economy, Bakyern maintains an active role in geopolitics - even with its inland sea which is the only coast it has. The defense of Bakyern relies on the Bakyernian Defense Force, with a total personnel number of 785,500. The Bakyernian economy is heavily service based. Bakyern's government is a unitary presidential state, with its internal politics being referred to as a dominant party system thanks to the power the National Unity Party has maintained since the creation of the Greater State in 1986 - winning all presidential elections except the 2001 presidential elections. The Bakyernian economy is dominated by the Vaapsjen, who regularly have feuds with the government over disputes of ownership and claims. Bakyern is criticized for its near police state actions, usage of mass surveillance and the death penalty.
