Divan Tcardom nad Solekopno
(The Grand Tsardom of Solekopno)
God Bless our Great Tsar!

Being the vastest known nation of Leonteus, Solekopno is seen as a force to be reckoned with. However, a combination of inept rulers and low population density have ensured that the country for the main part is largely unindustrialised. Despite being incredibly rich in land, the Tsardom sees a good deal of its citizens go sparsely fed. It's mineral wealth is unexploited for the most part as well.

The Tsardom is the result of several centuries of daring adventurers placing flags on hills and mountain, and thus a good deal of the nation is only the Tsar's in words - tribal warlords still ravage the landscape, and if it is to really put it's untapped riches to use, it would need to rid the land of these nomadic upstarts, whether by the pen or the sword.

The leader of the Tsardom is, unsurprisingly, the Tsar and his family. Currently reigning is Tsar Slaboumnik the 8th of the Vladar family, with the heir being Krivudav Vladar, who will be the 3rd of his name to reign.

The military works on the principle of quantity over quality, and although increased warlord activity has called more some modernisation, the average Solekopic soldier is usually ill equipped. The air force, however, is actually quite respectable, more so than the navy which has barely latched onto the concept of the Dreadnought, and hardly knows what a submarine is.

Solekopic industry mainly consists of subsistence farming, with a growing sector in metal extraction and processing, as well as an small aerospace industry, and arms manufacture. Wealth is mostly concentrated in the upper classes.
