Federation of Bana: Difference between revisions

Nearly half of New Rania's population is in the Ranisport metropolitan area, with the outer areas (called "the out-country") much more sparsely populated. The areas of New Rania to the east, south of the Loko River and Lake Unar, are known as "Translokonia" and is largely a protected wilderness area. New Rania purchased Translokonia from Bana in 1957 after Bana offered it for sale to raise funds for reconstruction after the Civil War. New Rania was scheduled to make payments on the land to Bana until 2057, however the debt was waived as part of the Good Harbor Agreement. New Rania has significantly less transit infrastructure than the other states in the Union, with fewer highways and only one rail line. As an independent country, it maintained almost no standing military, with defense provided by Tavaris. This military connection with Tavaris caused the Acronian government to limit trade with New Rania, for which reason New Rania has long had a dispute with its western neighbor.
