THE ROYAL REPUBLIC OF ILYSTERIA​

​

OVERVIEW​

The Royal Republic of Ilysteria is a monarchial-federal republic located in Northeast Iteria on the Ilysterian Isles, a collection of 5 islands inhabited originally by the Kingdoms of the Five Kings (predated by what's now known as the Ilyustra Tribes), that was founded originally in 1378 by the Five Kings (Kings Elijah IV, Di Allitorio II, Di S'an I, Ilysrael VI, & E'clair III) as the United Crown of Illysteria and reforming into the Royal Republic of Ilysteria following Alessio di Allitorio's famous 1881 Revolution of the Thorn Wreath, leading to modern Ilysteria. Ilysteria is led by Royal Executive Elias di Ilysrael-King as the head of government, as Her Celestial Crown Annie Aeleste as Crown Executive and head of state, with the capital city of Ilysteria being Royalcrest (located on the state of Heavensroth), and the seat of her Celestial Crown Aeleste being located in Aelestasia (located in the state of Aeleste). Ilysteria is an economically diverse nation with technocratic leanings in the government, with major sectors including aerospace technology, computer engineering, robotics science, mining, microchip/semiconductor manufacturing, green energy development, electronics manufacturing, and shipping & logistics. The Ilysterian people are described as regal, forward-thinking, independent and ambitious, largely in part of the Ilysterian Way Forward, Alessio di Allitorio's philosophy where royalty lies in ambition, competence and self-mastery, leading to a culture that awards innovation, ambition and advancement of both the self and the state.
