=== Foreign Status ===
No nation has officially recognized East Atiland as a sovereign state. The Kuthern Commonwealth recognizes it as territory of the Republic of Atiland under with Autonomous Status.
In the wake of the 2018 Atiland war referendum on the Kuthern Commonwealth Monetary Commission, and in view of the support of the Kliozon community for the plan, the KCMC made pledges towards ending the isolation of Eastern Atiland. These included measures for trade and 6.2 Billion SHD in Aid. A pledge by the KC to lift the embargo on East Atiland in the wake of the war has been blocked by the Kuthern Atian government.
Kliozon Atians have been applying for decades for passports issued by Atiland. A yearly increase in the number of applications for such passports of 17-25% was observed in years after to 2018, when the rate greatly increased and 3,210 were issued in the first eight months of 2019 as compared to 1,203 for the whole of 2018. After the opening of the borders with Atiland, Kliozon Atians started line-ups applying for Atiland passports by visiting the Republic of Atiland.
=== Military ===
The [[Kliozon National Guard]] consists of an 41,230 strong force primarily made up of conscripted Kliozon Atians between the ages of 18 and 40. The National Guard is lightly armed and heavily dependent on Atiland Military, from which it draws much of its officer corps. It acts essentially as a gendarmerie charged with protection of the border of East Atiland from Kuthern Atian violence, incursions and maintaining internal security within East Atiland.
In addition, [[Atiland Armed Forces]] maintains the Atiland Kliozon Peace Force which consists of around 21,000 troops drawn from the 332nd Atian Army Corps and comprising two divisions, the 31st and 8th. It is equipped with a substantial number of Kuthern-made main battle tanks and artillery weapons. The [[Royal Atiland Airforce]], [[Royal Atiland Navy]] and [[Atiland Coast Guard]] also have a presence in East Atiland. The Atiland Kliozon Peace Force is deployed principally along the Black Line and in locations where hostile actions might take place.
