===Battle of the Southern Islands===
+
Nedalia has, throughout its history, been filled with stories of mystic, mystery, valor, honor, death, and life. However, very little is known to the outside world about its past before it broke out of the isolationism it was under, but recently, the government has made efforts to slowly tell of Nedalia's history prior to its international arrival.
  
In 3 AFN, The Holy Saints, western neighbors of Nedalia, moved in on the southern islands of Temple Island and East Island in hopes of annexing them. While not Nedalia property, this was viewed by all Nedalians as a threat, so Commander Horacio, with permission from President [[Andrew Bren]], moved in troops to both islands. Fighting ensued on both islands, causing the very first war Nedalia was involved in against another nation. The battle lasted 2 days, costing over 700 Nedalian lives, mostly on East Island, and over 500 Holy Saints' deaths. Major battle happened on East Island, with Holy Saints flying 45 heavy assault aircrafts to bomb Nedalian positions on the island. However, that was quickly countered by the Anti-Aircraft Artillery which were stationed before hand by the Nedalian army.  
+
Since officially joining the [[Atlantian Oceania]], economically and politically, there has certainly been no lack of action. Almost immediately after declaring the end to its self-imposed isolationism, a minor battle broke out in what is known as the Southern Islands against a nation called [[The Holy Saints]], ending after 2 days thanks to a hastily agreed cease-fire.
  
[[Latao]] forces attempt to intrude under the guise of peacekeeping forces, with the reluctant agreement of President [[Andrew Bren]], but it was nothing more than a front. The apparent reason for the Latin interest was to claim a large island in the canal between the two countries. Latin officials claimed that if Holy Saints agreed to cede part ownership of the island, they would recognize Temple and East Islands as Holy Saints property. Quickly countering this measure, Nedalia met with Holy Saints officials and came to an agreement.
+
Threat from the west did not cease, however; a nation called [[Latao]] posed as a direct threat to the Nedalian people, which eventually led the nation to join the invasion of the country, leading to the capture and annexation of The Western Territories. Shortly after that, the country became one of the founding members of the [[Strategic Defense League]], currently the most powerful alliance in the Atlantian Oceania region.
  
The agreement stated that Nedalia would recognize the islands as Holy Saints land under the condition that Nedalia face no intrusion in its colonization of Land No. 20, officially named as the region of Sallam by Nedalia. The reason Nedalia sent the military to the island and fought the Holy Saints army was simple: had Holy Saints claimed the islands, Nedalia's southern shore would no longer have free access to the ocean, as Holy Saints would have control of the waterway all round the coast. With the colonization of Sallam, this would no longer become and issue, and it would get rid of the growingly hostile Latin forces. Thus, an agreement was quickly reached and the battle ended.
+
The formation of the SDL, coupled with the death of [[Starblaydia]] leader [[Tiberius Starblayde]], lead to a rise in tension in the region. Nedalia's first president, [[Andrew Bren]], passed away amidst the escalating tensions, which finally burst into a full regional war when Starblaydia declared war on Nedalia's SDL ally, [[The Lowland Clans]].

==Government==
  
 +
The Nedalian government, since forming after the Ezzeddine monarchy handed power to the people, has been a full-fledged democracy, with elections held for the Presidency every 5 years. There is no limit on how many times a person can run for the title; as long as people are voting him/her into power, he/she will continue to serve.
  
 +
All elections in Nedalia are done in the same format; that is, the people directly vote whatever candidate for whatever position into it. Elections are held for the following titles: President, Ministers, and Members of Parliament. The idea that the people have full control over who is put into office is held very dear, and it is the firm belief of the nation that the Nedalian people remain the ones responsible for their representation in the government.
  
 +
The current President is [[Yasmine Dala'a]], only the 2nd person to serve as Nedalian president, having taken the helm through national elections after [[Andrew Bren]] fell fatally ill and passed away.

* '''10 BDF/FB1 Fighter Bombers''' : Anarresian aircraft. The BDF/FB1 (Barter Defense Force/Fighter Bomber One) bears an uncanny resemblance to SU-34 fighter-bomber. With enhancements to the design that will allow it to perform functions such as taking off from land or ships and to both be a convincing fighter and bomber, while seating two pilots. Due to the fact that the BDF/FB1 was designed to be the sole aircraft for the Barter airforce, it was intended to be an 'ageless' design that could be updated easily. The BDF/FB1 is propelled by two specially designed ‘'TurboThrust' engines, again based heavily upon existing designs. The 'TurboThrust' engines have vectored thrust and allow the craft to cruise at 1,500mph and achieve a top speed of Mach 2.2. The BDF/FAB1 is a sleek aircraft with flowing lines and a compact body, ensuring greater than average wind resistance and light weight meaning higher than usually attainable performance for its type of craft. Has a range of 7,000 Kms.
 
  
* '''12 AFD - 9 WASPS'''    : Adejaanian aircraft. Lightweight and agile, it does not contain a targeting pod. The AFD-9 (Adejaani Fighter Design Nine) Wasp was designed as a cheap lightweight fighter for cash strapped (or freshly started) air forces and while perhaps not as spectacular, it is cost effective and is adaptable for a wide range of uses.

* '''5 TIUFEKCHIEV PATROL BOATS'''     : Seversky patrol boats. These vessels are not built of steel, but are manufactured from spiderglass, which is reinforced with aluminum. This lends for a light, but highly strong construction. The high strength of spiderglass serves as a layer of armor as well as a making the ships survivable in up through sea state 5. They possess high speed, and are capable of being resupplied from larger vessels, thereby undergoing longer cruises. It mounts a powerful radar in an egg shaped dome atop the superstructure. It is capable of performing sea scan out to 60 nm and air search out to 100 nm. It also has high quality radio communications, as well as being Street Fighter capable. GPS and LORAN receivers are both provided. Equipped with a 76mm cannon, 2 ASROC vertical launch modules, a Sea Sparrow Launcher, 5 Harpoons vertical launch modules.

* '''2 GEMINI TANKER'''  : Harlesburgian tanker ships. The Gemini is powered by twin Alco model 16V251E four stroke cycle, single acting, 2,575 b.h.p. V-16 diesel engines built in 2005 by EscoAlco Engine Div., White River Industrial Power Inc., Auburn, Harlesburg.
