It is bordered to the east by Sainuco; to the souteast by Bergenaria; and to the south by the Barnesian Sea . Atitlan is organized as a federation comprising 42 states and Chalatenango, its capital and largest metropolis. Other major urban areas include Acolmán, Santa Rosalía, Techalxtepec, Tlapanco, Yehualtepec and Canatlán. Atitlan is home to 89,970,412 people and one of the largest nations in Triania.
Atitlan is a federal presidential republic. Legislature is in charge of a bicameral Congress: the Senate (serving as the upper house) and the Chamber of Deputies (serving as the lower house). The economy of Atitlan is very diversified, although it is heavily disputed whether it should be considered a regional power in Triania.
Etymology
Atitlan comes from the atlacatle word atitlan which means "place between the water". The name itself makes a reference to the former Atlacatle inhabitants on the foundation of Chalatenango, as the city was built surrounded by walls of sand and the waters of the Barnesian Sea.
Another origin explains that "Atitlan" is the name of the ancestral home of the Atlacatle peoples. The myth details that Atitlan sunk beneath the waves in a fit of rage of Nonohualco, the main god of the Atlacatle. As an apology, Nonohualco guided his children into a new place where they would settle their city.

After it gained independence from the Almagrian Empire, attempts to form a federalized union were hindered by tension and violence between the former separatist groups.

At it's highest extent, the empire covered most of modern-day Bergenaria, Sainuco and Abala, alongside a domain in Mava.
