Aretias, officially the Kingdom of Aretias (Vardanan: Թագավորության Արետիաս; Mysian: Βασίλειον τῆς Ἀρητιάς), is a semi-recognized sovereign state located off the western coast of the Chersonian Peninsula. It is located on an archipelago in the Periclean Sea, and shares maritime borders with Thraysia to the north, Vardana to the east, and Perateia to the southwest. Its capital, and largest city, is Evros.
Aretias is has long been a territory of successive empires and kingdoms since the 7th century BCE. Until 1832, Aretias was a province of the Kingdom of Vardana, and from 1832 until 1901 a province of the Kingdom of Mysia. The islands remained under control of the House of Bznuni after re-integration into Hazaraspid Vardana. During the 1924 Revolution, the Lord of Aretias maintained control of the islands and attempted to re-establish control of the mainland until his death in 1933. Since 1924, Aretias has laid claim to Vardana and Mysia.
Aretias is a unitary absolute monarchy, with a limited unicameral legislature. Its population is near evenly split between a plurality of Mysians and Vardanans, along with other minority groups. Aretians are overwhelmingly christian, primarily following the Vardanan Apostolic faith, which is the official state religion.
