The Kingdom of Orun Redisus, or Orun Redisus or Redisus for short is a constitutional monarchy located in Northern Oxidentale in Ajax. It is the least populated country on the continent with only 31,392,201 citizens. It is bordered by Sante Reze to the south, Mutul to the southwest, the Salacian Ocean to the north, and the Kayamuca Sea to the west and covers an area of XXXX square kilometers, making it the smallest nation in Oxidentale by land area. The nation's capital is Atica, its financial center is Orun, and its largest urban area is Ansil.
Orun Redisus was created in 1802 by the unification of the Noble Houses of Orun and the Kingdom of Redisus brought about by the marriage of King Raphael I and Duchess Elmera of House Dreos. Prior to this, both Orun and Redisus suceeded from Sante Reze in 1708 during the civil war between the great houses. Orun on the mainland fell under the rule of the Five Great Houses of Orun while a relative of the last King of Sante Reze took the throne on the island Kingdom of Redisus. Both states were heavily at odds during a period known as the Shadow War. Following that, Redisus supported House Ivorea during the War of Oran Succession. The victory of House Ivorea against House Valdron and the subsequent dissolution of that house cemented favorable relations between the other five houses and the Kingdom of Redisus, resulting in the eventual unification of both states.
Orun Redisus is a regional hub with a specific set of industries developed from its location and history. Oil is extracted and refined from off shore drilling as well as several smaller wells located in Orun. As a result of its industry and geographical location, Orun Redisus has become a hub for financial services for the region. In recent years, it has embarked on several key environmental projects with Sante Reze, such as preservation of fragile Oxidentale ecosystems and movements toward electrification for certain sectors of both nations. With nearly half the nation being made up of islands, Orun Redisus has also developed a thriving marine engineering and shipbuilding industry. Its busiest port, Gnisia located in northern Redisus, sees a signifcant amount of daily shipping traffic.
Geography and Climate
Orun Redisus is located directly north of the equitorial region of Oxidentale and as a result, has a diverse tropical climate. The region of Orun on the mainland contains the northernmost region of the Ucayare Rainforest and a large portion of its southern border with Sante Reze is made up of the Ucayare River. The Ithican Mountains run along the southwest border with Mutul and have acted as a natural barrier between the two regions. Several tributaries that flow into the Ucayare originate from this region. Orun also borders Lake X, one of the largest lakes in Oxidentale and a major hub for fishing and tourism.
The island of Redisus is of a similar climate and is a High island, created by numerous volcanic eruptions from the ocean floor of the Salacian Ocean many years prior. The rich volcanic soil allowed flora and fauna from the mainland to take root and also allowed the island to develop its own unique species. The most notable landmark on Redisus is Mount Canithica, which is an extinct volcano whose various historical eruptions contributed to the growth of the island historically. It is believed the last time Canthica erupted was six thousand years prior to the current year. Redisus is known for its many rocky hills, smaller mountains and tall ocean cliffs which are all covered by natural rainforest.

Biodiversity
Orun Redisus is considered one of the megadiverse nations of Ajax. Because of its location, climate, and topography, Orun Redisus has a vast biodiversity with over 22,492 species of plants, 4,219 of them Template:Endemism. The nation has over 1,900 species of birds (87 endemic), over 500 species of mammals, over 300 species of reptiles, and over 1,000 species of freshwater fishes. The island of Redisus has many unique species that are endemic to just itself. With the passage of the Diversity Protection Act of 1932, vast nature preserves were created inside the mainland region of Orun on the borders of Sante Reze and Mutul. These wilderness regions serve as enclaves for many of the world's most coloful bird species, such as the Plum-throated cotinga. Large mammals such as Jaguars and bears inhabit the jungle regions.
The oceans around the nation are home to many species such as whales, dolphins, tuna, and sharks. The mountainous cloud slope jungle regions also sustain many types of moss and orchids. The jungles also sustain a staggering variety of flowering trees and plants.
History
Government
Orun Redisus is a Constitutional monarchy, consisting of an executive function, the King, and a legislative function, the Central Assembly. Both branches were established by the Unified Constitution of Orun Resdisus, which was ratified in 1803 during the Assembly of the Four Dawns. The Five Great Houses of Orun serve as the Upper Chamber and advise the Lower Chamber and also serve as advisors for the King. These are lifetime appointed positions held by the head of each family. The Lower Chamber is comprised of seventy-two elected officials from twenty-four electorate districts. Each district is limted to three elected representatives, regardless of population, and elections are held every two years.
In the system, the King maintains a level of executive power. The King directs the Unified Military of Orun Redisus during times of conflict as a primary role. He also provides direction and oversight to the various Royal Directorates through the official appointment of their heads, the directors. He can also issue missives, which are declarations by the executive. Like every other aspect of the nation, however, the King is limited by the laws passed by the Assembly and cannot directly issue orders in conflict with laws passed by the assembly. He can issue a Writ of Protest that can temporarily halt a new law from being implemented and force the assembly to vote on it again. In contrast to most nations, the monarchy of Orun Redisus is an Elective monarchy. A new king is elected upon the death of the previous king and can only be elected by the Five Great Houses of Orun. Eligible candidates can also only be brought forward from members of the Five Great Houses, though a king may designate a successor ad mortem, which automatically places the designated as a candidate in the election.
The Central Assembly comprises of an upper and lower house. Though the Upper Assembly is consitutionally part of the Assemnly, no legislative powers are technically vested with them. Like the king, they can issue an offical protest against a law being passed through the lower assembly but cannot force a second vote like an official Writ of Protest from the King. A protest from the Upper Chamber can only force one recount of the votes on any bill, which is usually just a procedural hurdle that can be easily overcome. The entire legislative power of the Assembly is vested in the Lower Chamber. There are twenty-four electorates, which each are alotted three seats. That has resulted in a permanent number of seventy-two elected officials sitting in the Lower Chamber. Officials are elected every two years with a term limit of three terms, or six years.
The last arm of the government is the Justice Assembly, which is the judicial arm of the government. The JA is responsible for interpretation of the constitution of the nation and to handle disputes in matters of law interpretation. It is comprised of sixteen appointed judges, who are appointed by the King and serve until death. The Justice Assembly also oversees all of cthe courts in the land and is responsible for appointing Royal Justices who serve in courts at the national level. Cases heard by the Assembly are heard and discussed by the Justices, who interpret them accordingly and issue a ruling that is considered binding.

Economy
The economy or Orun Redisus is the Xth largest in the world (ranked by nominal GDP) and a has a higher income level. The Redisan economy has experienced growth in key service sector area such as renewable energy, financial services and high tech manufacturing. Sectors such as manufacturing have seen a decline in recent years as more manufacturing jobs become outsourced. With the shift towards renewable energy across Oxidentale, many local industries have shifted towards supporting electrification of major industries. The adoption of electric vehicles across many industries as well as the Redisan Solar Initiative to create viable solar power and more efficient battery technology has resulted in the emergence of a strong high tech industry as well as a push towards exploring greater implementation of nuclear power. Research into artificial intelligence has also created a thriving computer sector.
Though most manufacturing has been outsourced, Oran Redisus still retains some limited heavy industry in its vehicle manufacturing and shipbuilding sectors. With the main economic centers located on the island of Redisus, defense and management of shipping lanes has always been a key issue for Orun Redisus. This has been one of the few industries that the government has actively sought to maintain in order to support national defense and continued trade of key goods with other countries through container ships. The nation also produces automobiles with two national competing automotive brands, Pantra A.E and Aldmerta Automotive. Both of these companies also design military technology though manufacturing of smaller components is mostly done overseas and imported with only two assembly plants remaining.
Historically, the both the mainland of Orun and the island of Redisus have grown crops such as Cocoa, coffee, and citrus. Agriculture is still practiced in many parts of the nation with many small family farms producing these crops. These are mostly sold and consumed locally but are exported to other nations to some extent. Though dwarfed by the cocoa production in its neighbor Mutul, chocolate is still grown and exported in much smaller quantities, mostly in Orun on the mainland. Many local importers have made a profit purchasing products from the Mutul and selling them for a profit to nations that participate in the embargo of that nation.
