Fighting a stagnating economy and a health care system that has experienced rampant corruption but has largely helped fund overt lobbyist schemes to win the loyalty of elected officials, the Kunimatsu government seeks to right a ship that many have seen sinking since 2014. With Radenan influence in Faresia growing, the Kunimatsu government has failed to take an honest accounting or whether they will align with Radena, Meung or find their own path in the world.

One of only two nations still retaining sovereignty over former colonial territories now referred to as "departments," Calloway has a deep and enriched history of colonialism. In the 21st century, Calloway has slipped from the apex of a top three economy now just out of the top five. With an electorate that seems poised to continually hing back and forth, the 2016 General Election saw the liberal Labour Front against the Movement for a Better Calloway party.

Calloway's refusal to grant independence to it's overseas department has created some consternation in the international community, with even fellow Euranian League members calling for economic sanctions until the issue is resolved. A dilapidated military has also seen Calloway's Republican Navy go from first to fourth in size, with an equal drop in quality. Similarly, skyrocketing debt has caused some concern of an international economic crisis.

Sharing cultural, linguistic and ethnic ties with Marnland, Yorvigir, and to a lesser extent the Memoitals. Maintaining a decidedly traditionalist ideology in the world, Aontas’ retains its constitutional monarchy in the modern day. The GDP per capita in the Marnish territories are some of the highest in the world, where the welfare state reigns. With nearly non-existent military spending, the Aontans retain a defensive all volunteer army, an air force of Euranian purchased strike aircraft and a half dozen coastal ships. An uncompetitive economy paired with raising unemployment for both youth and “post work” adults (those who have effectively retired, thus taking from the system but no longer contributing) have begun to put a strain on the Aontan way of life. [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/pxnUNqb.png[/img] [i]Location of Aontas in Eurania[/i][/center] The politics of Aontas take place in the framework of a parliamentary representative democratic constitutional monarchy. Executive power is exercised by the Council of State, the cabinet, led by the Prime Minister of Aontas. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the legislature, the Tortinget, elected within a multi-party system. The judiciary is independent of the executive branch and the legislature. A parliamentary election was held in Aontas on 11 September 2017. The conservative-centrist coalition lead by the Nasjonalt Konservativt Parti (NKP) retained a slim majority of 91 seats along with the Agrariska Partiet i Aontas (APA). This coalition allowed Prime Minister Hugo Saugstad to remain in power, earning a second term as Head of Government of Aontas.

Survaek's current administration headed by prime minister of Huj Bolu of the United Socialist Survaekom Party has enacted measures to increase the influence of socialism in the Known World, reversed and undermined capitalist policies, and has reversed earlier reforms such as freedom of the press. The Survaekom Senate has 151 seats, of which hold elections every five years. A unicameral legislature has allowed the USSP to maintain power through gerrymandering since gaining power in 1992. The Survaek Commonwealth maintains its monarchy under Emperor Vokoryn III Khaitis, though his power is largely arbitrated through the Survaekom Senate. Khaitis has been the reigning monarch since 1975. Survaek is a land abundant with natural resources marred by a population that with illiterate, uneducated and bolstered by instances of regional tribalism, giving Survaek the name of the “Patchwork State” by Euranian contemporaries. Additionally, Survaek is not a member of the Euranian League. Survaek is the only nation to have territory in both Eurania and Serranthia, due as well to ownership of the Myur-Haeyez Canal. The Survaekom serranthia territories are less populated but similarly home to some of the most abundant natural resources. The Myur-Haeyez Canal is an immense source of trade for Survaek, encountering nearly $40,000,000,000 in trade ever year. Outside of the Internan Sea, a merchant ship would have to go around the Serranthian continent to get its goods to Faresia or the Hadjeb sub-continent. The Survaekom Army, Navy and Air Force have state mandated one year conscription services to attempt to create a more singular state identity among it’s multitude of ethnic populations. This has led the Survaekom armed forces to be among the largest in Eurania, spending nearly 4% of it’s national GDP on the armed forces. Survaek's upcoming elections in April, 2018 will set the future of the nation.
