Ackesia officially the ________ is a republic located on the continent of Lira in the region of Greater Olympus. It is bordered by.... Its capital Beldon is the largest city and social-economic hub of the nations economy while the former capital, Avondale, stands as the cultural epicenter of the nation.
Former known as the Kingdom of Ackesia, the nation is a harbor of natural resources and deep rooted culture in eastern Lira. The last century of the nations history has seen it take the largest progressive steps towards liberalization since the invention of electricity with the opening of its borders to the west and the conclusion of what was known internationally as the Stew Uprising and locally as the War of Opposing Salvations. It was during this conflict in the 1960s that poverty and famine pushed the nation past the brink and several different factions each with their own ideology rose up to either topple or empower the monarchy which lead Ackesia. Many died during this conflict, and though the armies of republicanism had the clear upper hand, those loyal to the Royal House of Avondale held on to enough power to force a peace. The end of the conflict saw the abolishment of the absolute monarchy in Ackesia with the abdication of the Royal titles by the Avondales, and the establishment of the _________. However within one province the royals were allowed to remain and style themselves as the Prince(cess) of Avonmark where they would remain in a ceremonial position among the majority pro-royal populace.
Today Ackesia is no less divided than it was during the war. However liberalization of much of the urban centers of the nation have begun to shift the political views of the youth, though the culture of Ackesia shows little will to reduce its hold on society. Poverty is one of the many issues facing Ackesia today as it continues to plague the nation and its economy. Homelessness, crime, and hunger are as much a problem in the western provinces today as they were during the Stew Uprising after a very brief improvement during the initial decades of the republic. Internationally Ackesia is known for its resource exports such as ______ which are prominent among the world's economy. Internal strife and destabilization of much of the nations infrastructure due to economic troubles has however caused its export ability to suffer, further aggregating the economic problems of the nation.
