Overview

Aramatheriun Kavo is a huge, economically powerful nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 745 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Commerce, and Defence. The average income tax rate is 14%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Retail and Soda Sales.

Punitive tariffs protect local industry, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and the government is slowly introducing social welfare programs. Crime is moderate. East Kavo's national animal is the raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the gold piece.

History

The Kavoan Federation

Main Article: Kavoan Federation Aramatheriun Kavo was originally three provinces of the Kavoan Federation, East Kavo, South Kavo and North Kavo, however following invasion by Aramatheriun forces in Febuary 2007, the land was siezed by The Great Empire of Aramatherius, and was merged into one sub-state of Aramatherius (basically just another part of the empire). The invasion was little more than an occupation, Kavoan forces were unable to mobilise fully before they were destroyed by artillary and aerial assaults, and there was no resistance. Despite this the death toll was huge, Aramatheriun troops routinely massacred Kavoan civilians and almost the entire population of the occupied territories was genocidally wiped out in the most brutal fashion. Rape, murder and brutal butchery was seen, until the Sultan ordered an end to this and had the officers who had ordered the offences slowly tortured to death on public television. When Aramatheriun forces reached the Kavoan Gate, a small land bridge linking Torinoa Alligaro to Torinoa Kytora, they met a force amassed of Kavoan soldiers, citizens and with it a threat that further advances into Kavoan territory would meet stiff resistance from Kinonita. After this Kavoan leaders went to Joljova the capital of East Kavo where they signed The Treat of Joljova, which surreneder the Kavoan Federation's holdings in Torinoa Alligaro to the Sultan fo Aramatherius in exchange for peace.

Under Aramatheriun Rule

Life for Aramatheriun Kavo has been anything but peaceful since the signing of the Treaty of Joljova. Masses of Aramatheriun citizens flood the lands, swallowing up land and building massive cities where once there was little more than nomadic herdsmen. Though following the Genocide there were too few Kavoans to argue. Roads were built and the area was dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century.
