OOC Note: Worldbuilding storage thread for my main RP nation (Arthasiddhanta). Continued work in progress.
The Kingdom of Arthasiddhanta (Suchari: साम्राज्य अर्थसिद्धांतीया Transliterated: Rajya Arthasiddhantiya) is a nation located in eastern Meterra, bordered by an expanse of ocean to much of its west and north, and bordered by Seinoku to its east. It comprises a sizable land area of 421,104 square kilometers (or 162,589 square miles), and contains a population of around 47 million people. The country consists of 23 provinces, one of which is also the capital and largest city Nadikamagh. The provinces have their own constitutions and governments, but exist within a federal system. It is a very multicultural and diverse country, owing to many centuries of immigration to the country by various ethnic and religious groups.
The country comprises various geographic zones and is considered a megadiverse country with biomes ranging from the arid coastal region in the north, to the peaks and valleys of the Akashalaya mountains extending from the west to the northeast of the country, to the tropical rainforest in the south.
Arthasiddhanta was inhabited by various tribal nations prior to the landing in 1565 of explorer Siddhanta Nayak, who claimed the area for the Syrixian Empire. Arthasiddhanta emerged from the various different colonies set up along the northern coastline. Disputes over centralization of power, taxation, and trade from Siddhantiyan colonists towards Syrixia, and an economic recession and the death of Emperor Kumaranatha in Syrixia, led to the former Crown Prince Narayana, who then de facto controlled Arthasiddhanta as a prefect of the colony, to declare independence from Syrixia. The new Emperor, Girvana, attempted to respond with a failed military campaign, ending with a treaty that established Arthasiddhanta as an independent kingdom. The ratification of the Sanvidhaan, the country's constitution, in 1836, saw the creation of a federal constitutional monarchy and the creation of a local legislature or Sansad. In practice, however, Krishnath held great power in his position as the monarch, while reforms at the end of his reign delegated the monarch to a ceremonial role. Krishnath's reign was a time of sweeping reforms to old colonial systems of economics and politics which set the basis of massive and sustained economic growth and industrialization, which continued into the 20th century.
Today, the country is a member of the Sangatha and META organizations, and is considered a high-income country, ranking high in measures relating to quality of life, freedom, education, and human rights. However, the country has problems with inequality along the lines of race, wealth, and income, as well as tensions on communal lines, with many riots across both colonial and modern history of violence between different religious communities, although this has decreased over the centuries. It is a country with immense cultural wealth, a diversified economy, and biodiversity.
