The Democratic People’s Republic of Anmativeda is a country on the continent of Meterra. It borders Yekteniya to the west and Seinoku to the east. The country’s capital city is Meuxnghim and its largest city is Chianmei.
The earliest records of civilization in the area date back to the 300s BCE in the form of several city states. Several powerful kingdoms and empires have occupied areas of what is now Anmativeda throughout history: the Bagar Empire in the 1000s comes to mind. Stuff past like 1500 needs to be worked on with others probably. Anmativeda was likely colonized at some point.
It was at least independent by 1953, whereby the Anmativeda National Liberation Army established the People’s Republic of Anmativeda. This was a one party socialist state that was vastly oppressive and authoritarian. The People’s republic was overthrown by the September 8th Movement in 1989 during the 9898 Revolution. This revolution established the Democratic People’s Republic of Anmativeda, a multiparty unitary presidential republic.
The DPR was a reasonably successful attempt at democracy within the nation and successfully held several elections, improved standard of living, the economy, and foreign relations. However, Anmativeda has never been a particularly stable country. It has had 7 military coups since 1953. Additionally, human rights abuses and ethnic conflict continued to be a problem in several regions. Because of the military’s power within the country, it was able to operate outside the purview of the government and did things like owning their own gas station chains and mining cryptocurrency. The military was also required to have 1/4 of the seats in legislature to appease them.
Unfortunately, appeasement only goes so far. On August 21, 2020, General Huy Wattana launched a coup d’état and seized power. This coup deposed widely popular President Intira Mei. Mei is currently held as a political prisoner along with many other politicians by the junta. The coup led to widespread and ongoing protests against the military regime that have been met with violent repression by the military. These protests would soon lead to the outbreak of open civil war between the military and its allied militias and republican forces and their allied ethnic militias.
Anmativeda’s economy has never been a particularly strong area for the country. Despite having incredibly valuable reserves of oil and natural gas, tapping these reserves has been difficult due to very poor infrastructure, aforementioned instability, and several other reasons. Anmativeda is also famed for its gemstones, in particular jade, sapphires, pearls, and rubies from several areas in the country are very high quality and highly sought after. Despite the practice being outlawed in 2005, Anmativeda remains a global leader in the production of illicit opium. However, the largest industries in the country are garment production and rice. Anmativeda has also sought to increase the number of tourists visiting the country since the turn of the century.
Anmativeda is a massively flawed country but many citizens still see the potential in the country and will fight to seize that potential. It has a massive income gap due to a large portion of the economy being controlled by military cronies. It is also one of the least developed countries on Eras, ranking very low on the human development index. Ethnic violence and the civil war have left hundreds of thousands of people in need of humanitarian assistance and displaced well over half a million.
