Zoygaria, officially the Imperial Commonwealth of Zoygaria (Zoygarian: Sodružéstvo Imperiál de Zoyívska), is a Semi-Constitutional Monarchy located in Eastern Nortua in the Coalition of Crown Albatross. It is bordered by Trive to the west, Versenia and Greland to the east, and shares a maritime borders with Jumbosa, Oeslia, Jyau, and Vitosium to the south. Zoygaria is characterized by hilly, highly-varied elevation and terrain, dominated by low-lying mountains and hills, particularly in the southwest. The country is covered in vast expanses of plains and steppes with a broad coastline into the Nortua Sea and hundreds of islands, the largest of which is the island of Povoska. The Zoygarian climate is typically cool and mild in the summer months with biting winters that scourge the countryside in the latter half of the year. The Zoygarian capital is Vostok, the 4th-largest city, the largest being the historical city of Akuí, the metropolitan and cultural heart of the Imperial Commonwealth. Zoygaria has a population of approximately 57,801,000, making it the third-most populous nation in Nortua.


The Principality of Soyiv was founded in 1203 alongside the neighboring Helga and much larger Chestislava. In 1369, Soyiv and Helga unified, later merging with Chestislava under the Ovostek Agreement of 1456 and forming the Zoygarian Empire. The Zoyarian Empire would quickly establish itself as one of the strongest and most influential Nortuan powers, covering vast swathes of territory and establishing near-dominance of the Nortua Sea. The Empire would see a steady decline starting in 1684 due to a long series of devastating wars with little reprieve. The Zoygarian Empire collapsed in 1739 following the Great Zoygarian War after four grueling years of conflict that crippled the Empire and drained its treasury, effectively ending Zoygaria’s extensive influence. The Kingdom of Zoygaria would rise from the ashes of the Zoygarian Empire in 1740, implementing massive reforms in governance and finance. Zoygaria would go on to reclaim much of the mainland territory and local islands it had lost during the Great Zoygarian War, but would permanently lose most of its overseas colonies, which were left to fend for themselves after the Empire fell. In 1912, the Kingdom of Zoygaria underwent another major series of reforms, recognizing Archravian independence and establishing the Imperial Commonwealth. Zoygaria pursued an imperialist foreign policy, generally steering clear of binding alliances and organizations that threatened to hinder its autonomy, rising as a great power as a result of its formidable military and technology. Zoygaria developed its first nuclear weapons in 1979, cementing its position on the world stage and ensuring its continued influence over southeastern Nortua.

Military

The Armed Forces of Zoygaria (Zoygarian: Las Forças Armatas de Zoyívska) or FAZ consist of four primary branches and one unincorporated branch: the Zoygarian Army (Zoygarian: La Tierra Vojna), Navy (Zoygarian: La Mara Vojna), Air Force (Zoygarian: La Astra Vojna), Elite Guard (Zoygarian: La Guardia de Élite), and the Royal Guard (Zoygarian: La Guardia Krolovski). The Commander-in-Chief of the FAZ is the ruling sovereign of the Imperial Commonwealth (currently King Arristok Zobieski III of Zoygaria), to whom all personnel must swear allegiance to in addition to the Imperial Commonwealth, with secondary power being afforded to the Secretary of Defence. The FAZ is tasked with maintaining the territorial integrity of the Imperial Commonwealth and her allies, maintaining security within the borders of the Imperial Commonwealth, and protecting the Imperial Commonwealth's interests abroad.

According to a 2021 report, all four primary branches were recorded to have a sum of 605,000 active-duty personnel, with the Reserves and Royal Guard increasing this number to 885,000 total personnel. The Imperial Commonwealth does have conscription laws in place, though conscripted personnel are relegated to the Reserves unless a state of war is entered, in which case a portion of the Reserves are transferred to active-duty. Zoygaria has a long history of military prowess with a particular focus on sea and air, and to this day maintains a large navy and air force, possessing 3 aircraft carriers, 1 of which is the experimental nuclear aircraft carrier Pustulka II. The Zoygarian military is almost entirely self-manufactured, primarily by companies such as Sukhoi, Mikojan i Gurevič, and the United Shipbuilding Corporation. Zoygaria's defence policy has oft mirrored its foreign policy, being deployed in the service of allies in need or wherever Zoygaria feels will best safeguard its interests. Zoygaria has its own nuclear weapons payload, developed in 1979 under Project Švitkadita.
