Ethalria is a Matriarchy and all government positions are held for women only. The military of Ethalria, which has 325,505 servicewomen and men, comprises of 97.4% women. However, this does not stop men from getting jobs. Men have a 89% employment rate whilst women boast a 98.2% employment rate.
For millennia, Ethalria, under the rule of Kings, dominated the Auroran continent alongside Kostuvastan, until 1150 where tensions in the Xagrurg province rose to new heights. This rebellion led to the eventual border change from completely dominating the northern region to having almost no influence 200 years later. If a rebellion had never formed, Ethalria would have likely been the worlds largest colonial superpower today. In 1153, the ruling King was executed in favour for a ruling Queen, because of their tactical inferiority. Since 1153, except for one instance in 1493, Ethalria has remained in hereditary rule by a female, under the title Queen until 1700 until the title Matriarch was adopted. In 1975, the matriarchal monarchy became constitutional and the country has been henceforth run by a Matriarch with Presidential powers. The monarchy has almost zero power besides the "rights to encourage".
Ethalria lost lots of land during the Auroran Imperial War, partially triggered by a sparsely defined border between themselves and Caltharus. Ethalria sold Caltharusian land to Ethalrian farmers, evoking the likes of the Morstaybishlian Empire and Kostuvastan, as well as a familiar enemy, Xagrurg.
