=== Reformist Period (1660 - 1740) ===
[[File:Portrait of Pope Innocent X (by Diego Velázquez) - Doria Pamphilj Gallery, Rome.jpg|center|thumb|''Portrait of Archbishop Hernandéz II,'' c.1740]]The Reformist Period was marked by increased democratization of both government and religion. Antoran Deusism underwent a series of changes under Archbishop Hernandéz II that resulted in a more tolerant, helpful, and passive religion. The powers of the nobility became reduced and codified in the Second Constitution. Chivalry was introduced as a way to tie the nation together with a set of positive moral values. Royal knights and common people worked together to create the Chivalric Caucus, the first political party in the country. The Chivalric Caucus was followed by the Feudalist Front and the Honorable Action Caucus, competing parties that sought similar influence. The Assembly passed several laws detailing the rights and limitations of political parties.

Line 340:
The major [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_party parties] of the Assembly are the Chivalric Caucus (CC,) the Antora Progress Party (APP,) and the Environmental Stewards (ES.) These three parties are broadly liberal-leaning and always form a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_government coalition] together, which is known as the Antoran Liberal Pact. The CLP has controlled the House of the Populace for the past forty years, receiving the majority of seats each election. Some minor parties that still manage to acquire decent amounts of seats are the Honorable Action Caucus (HAC,) a centrist party that formerly was the largest in the mid-1900s, and the Feudalist Front (FF,) a conservative-leaning group that advocates for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocracy autocratic] reforms. Less important minor parties include the communist National Unity Party (NUP,) the economically-driven Coastal Prosperity Front (CPF,) the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secession secessionist] Island Freedom Caucus (IFC,) the pseudo-theocratic Deus Vult (DV,) and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarchism monarcho]-fascist Royalists (R.)

A building next to a park in a city. It is five stories tall and made of red brick, with a stepped red flat roof. A belltower made of smooth marble rises from the back left corner.]]The foreign policy stance of Antora is to expand the nations' trade opportunities and close ties with [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_power regional powers]. The nation does not have a specific ideological stance it promotes or adheres to, aside from abhorring absolute-rule governing styles such as communal authoritarianism or fascism. Many people of Antoran citizenship feel that there is no one correct way to run a nation, resulting in a very diverse caucus of governmental representatives, all along the political spectrum. This has led to Antora having regular relations with communist states, theocracies, and monarchies. Extensive military buildups, international interventionalist, and imperialist foreign policy stances are anathema to the Antoran government resulting in worse relations with certain countries. The strength of the Antoran economy and military, while sufficient for a nation of its size, are not enough to allow it to stand as a preeminent regional player, nor to deter foreign powers from attempting to interfere in Antoran matters. Therefore, the current diplomatic mandate of the government is to form bonds with other nations, develop close cultural, economic, and personal ties with those nations, and insert the Antoran state into organizations and alliances based around mutual benefit. Noteworthy partners are Cryria, [[Volkia]], and [[Tavaris]].
Antora achieved membership status in the [[League of Novaris]] on 11 November 2021, achieving one major long-term goal of foreign policy. Attempts were made to join various regional cooperatives during the 1900s, but ideological equilibrium only stabilized in the late 2010s for the Antoran government to consider pursuing membership seriously. Antora has contributed support in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_sanctions condemnation] of the unrecognized rebel Xaethos state in [[Alksearia]], the condemnation and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_sanctions sanctioning] of [[Baykalia]], and provides a significant portion of its [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aid foreign aid] budget to the Novaris Aid and Development Office. The nation is represented on the Council by Prince-Emeritus [[Astolfo de Naranza-Carratéo]] and Sir [[Júlio Ezekiel de Zanpaí]].

==== International Citizens ====
The modern Antoran [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaspora diaspora] is estimated to be around 15 million individuals. This number has fallen from an estimated 20 million Antoran citizens living abroad in the 1980s, mainly due to political shifts and economic needs. The Réorans and Arranzics do not have diasporas as the members living abroad number under five hundred each. The largest international Antoran populations are in [[New Leganés]] and [[Peragen|South Peragen]], followed by Tavaris's Crystal Coast. Antoran citizens live in significant numbers across Novaris and
