Once a state of Americadia, Tidan acheived its independance during the civil war. The Fascist militant group Albion First attempted to assassinate the President and ruling Senate, the government retreated to Tidan and the resulting civil war saw Tidan and Pharin seperate from Americadia which would be caught up in it's internal civil war for years.
Politics
The Emperor
The Emperor is Head of State and Commander in Chief of Tidan.
Security
Security has been the cornerstone of Tidani society since its founding. There are two branches of Tidan's National Security Network.
Imperial Forces
The Tidani Imperial Forces are responsible for Tidan's sovereignty. This national force of 100 thousand (150 thousand logistics) including the Army (50,000), Navy (20,000), Air Force (25,000), and Marines (5,000) are under the authority of the Minister of Defence. The Imperial Forces are a priority for Tidan and receive the fourth most funding. They are kept exquiped with state-of-the-art equipment and world class training. All citizens are required to serve in the Imperial Forces for at least two years, in the branch of their choosing however demand is spread around if too uneven. In the event that citizens are unable to serve, they are encouraged to serve in logistics. Manditory service bolsters the Imperial Forces, enstils pride and patriotism, and teaches descipline.
Badlander Regiment
The Badlander Brigade is a special operations force of the Tidan Army Special Operations Command, of approximatly 1,000. These men and women were chosen at childhood as having the potential to become the perfect soldiers. The Badlander Regiment were trained from a young age in many ways of combat. The combination of natural potential and years of intense training has created the most capable and feircesome fighting force in the country. Often the Badlanders have been victorious in the most dangerous operations, and against overwelming odds. The Badlanders remain Tidan's go to force when the situation requires a victory pulled from the jaws of defeat. Despite their record of glory and valor, the public knows little of this elite and secret fighting force.
The Guardians
The Guardians are carried forth from ancient times, the Guardians were elite warriors that protected their people and land. Today the Guardians persist as the federal police force and secret service. These special forces officers are put through military training, equipped with advanced body armor, helmets, shields, and carry both lethal and non-lethal weaponry. Their specialties include urban combat, riot control, narcotic enforcement, and combatting organized crime. Guardians fall under the Minister of Law and are charged with enforcing federal law, embassy protection, emergency assistance, as well as international security efforts. Currently the Guardians are engaged in a war against the growing underground organized crime and drug trade. Supporting these protectors as well as local police forces is costly, that is why Law & Order is Tidan's first financial priority. The Guardians also use the Hali-21 Assault Rifle, and the M40A1 Sniper Rifle.
Industry
Tidan's thriving economy is dominated by its three main industries; Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving.

Redhawk Aerospace is Ameracadia's main Aircraft Manufacturer. They work in both civilian and military contracts and have been very sucessful thanks in part to Ameracadia's large Air Force.
