The Pirate of Gholestan (Golani: Pîriyetî-yi Golestan) is a sovereign and theocratic state in West Catai, bordered by Hisaristan to the east and Fahran to the west. It has a population of nearly eight million, who are primarily located in rural areas. The capital city of Gholestan is Golkand, which is also the largest city in the nation. An anarchist federation, Gholestan has no official leader or legislature. The Imam of the Rohollahi faith exerts immense spiritual authority however, meaning he is often considered to be in command.

Gholestan was first settled by nomads originating in UNKNOWN, who founded several towns in the Vadi-e-Shirin region. Cut off from Hisaristan geographically, the settlers language and culture diverged significantly. The mountainous towns remained disunited as the harsh geography made ay large-scale conquests difficult. By the eighth century CE, forces loyal to the Davazdi Emirate had made several military incursions into the Vadi-e Shirin and spread Irsad to the lowland areas. The Highland clans, however, remained dedicated to their pagan beliefs and resisted Irsadic expansion. In the late eighth century, the heterodox Zikrist preacher Ibn Muadh was forced to flee from his teaching position in Muqtal on account of his radical beliefs. He fled north, eventually residing among the pagan Golanis who saw him as an alternative to the rigid and legalist Irsad of the lowlands.

In the modern day, Gholestan is a poor country. The Civil War left the country a husk with poor infrastructure, while corruption is still a problem. Its unique system of governance, which is anarchist in nature, has left the nation unable to fully industrialise and left much of the nation in poverty. Gholestan is also isolated from its neighbours, due to the revanchist ideals of much of the Majlis-y Piran and Revolutionary Guards and heretical nature of the Rohollahi faith.
