Mauntam (Arabic: ماء محلى), officially the Republic of Mauntam, is a sovereign state and presidential republic situated in northern Idica. Bordered to the north by the Hemetrian Sea, it's bordered by TBA to the west, TBA to the south, and Kasaria to the west. consiting of 852,178.44 square kilometre of land, the nation is divided into seven districts, whilst its government is situated in the nation's capital city, Fam Kibar to it's north.

Mauntam is one of the oldest still surviving nations, with a history of habitation in the region stretching back to pre-Sabarine times. While its role in the development of civilisation is disputed amongst historians, the nation saw significant developments in agriculture, writing, and organised government, with the nation being host to the ancient Mauuite Empire from which the modern nation derives its name. Significant locations from that period are the Valley of Gods, Silent Tower, and Mauu itself, though numerous archaelogical sites has kept the countries historical past as an area of popular interest amongst historians. Internal conflicts and uncertain succession laws saw the Mauuite Empire collapse with its occupation by the Sabarine Empire in TBA. Centuries of intermittant independence and occupation ended in TBA when the Neo-Mauuite was conquered by the nascent Kasarian Empire, which in turn led to a religious shift from predominatly Perendist to firmly |Senit, which the country remains to this day.

Modern Mauntam was created following the defeat of the Kasarian Empire in the |Second Great War, however vague nationalist sentiment and vague population distribution led significant portions of Kasarian territory ceded to the new state. The Continuation War in TBA saw Kasaria reclaim much of this territory at the expense of international condemnation, though the establisment of peace facilitated the transfer of remaining ethnic populations to their nation of choice. Internal issues continued on, as many nationalist organisations had advocated for a republican formt of government though Coalition leaders had created Mauntam under an Auressian-led monarchy, largely suspected to secure oil rights for Auressian nations. The Mauntamic Civil War, which lasted from 1959 to 1964 saw the monarchy officially ousted from the country and a republican government assembled. Capitalising on the wealth of oil and mineral deposits, extracted by Auressian companies, facilitated economic recovery within the nation and allowing it to rebuild itself. However, controversy remains regarding the presence of Auressian companies and interest in Mauntamic politics, leading to frequent protests throughout the nation.

Today, Mauntam is generally considered to be a middle power in Indican politics, often leveraged as a counter-balance to the increasingly militant Kasaria. Though officially a developing , Mauntam frequently experiences economic growth though concerns of its reliance on the oil and mineral industry has led to attempts at diversification.
