Nacata, officially Royal Protectorate of Nacata is a sovereign country located in Western Novaris, occupying the Novaris Coast. Its land border is with Kuthernburg to the North, Casilló y Réal to the South, and Tedeschi to the South-East.

Following Morstaybishlian rule, Nacata became a Kuthernburg protectorate in the early 20th century until gaining Full Autonomy in 1982. Nacata has been ruled by the House of Royal Families since the early 19th century. Clifton Heriberto Mccoy was the founder of the State of Nacata. Nacata is a constitutional monarchy and its head of state is Charlotte Roberson. Whether it should be regarded as a constitutional or an absolute monarchy is a matter of opinion. In 2003, the constitution was overwhelmingly approved in a referendum, with almost 98% in favor. In early 2020, Nacata's total population was 43 million: 31 million Nacatan citizens and 11 million expatriates.

Nacata defines itself as a Jurain and democratic state. Nacata is a representative democracy with a parliamentary system, proportional representation, and universal healthcare. The President is head of government and the Royal Assembly is the legislature. Nacata is a developed country and a League of Novaris members. The country benefits from a highly skilled workforce and is among the most educated countries, with one of the highest percentages of its citizens holding a tertiary education degree. The country has one of the highest standards of living in Novaris.

History

Nacatto Revolt Painting, which succeeded in establishing the independent Nacato Kingdom in Novaris

First Nacato

With successive Geridian rule, the autonomous province Mecan Deunas was gradually developing back into urban society, largely dominated by Nacatons. The Merida conquests largely skipped the region without any resistance or interest. Incorporated into the Voria and finally the Vormeir empires, the southern Nerid was heavily Meridans, building the tensions between Nacatons and Merida. The conflict erupted in 131 BCE with the Nacatto Revolt, which succeeded in establishing the independent Nacato Kingdom in Novaris, which later expanded over much of modern Nacata, as the Meridans gradually lost control in the region.

The Kapathian Empire invaded the region in 38 BCE, first taking control of Kuthern region, and then intervening in the Geridian Civil War. The struggle between pro-Kapathian and pro-Nacato factions in Nacato eventually led to the installation of Prince Fila and consolidation of the Nacato kingdom as a vassal Nacato state of Kapathian. With the decline of the Nacatos dynasty, Nacato, transformed into a Kapathian province, became the site of a violent struggle of Jurain against Kapathians, culminating in the Jurain–Kapathian wars, ending in wide-scale destruction, expulsions, genocide, and enslavement of masses of Jurain captives. An estimated 2,430,900 Jurain were killed as a result of the Jurain War.

Kalatian Conquest/Christian Wars

In 872–912 CE, the region, including Bluixginia, was conquered by the Levians who had recently adopted Nebals.

During the siege of Bluixginia by the First Crusade in 1211, the Jurain inhabitants of the city fought side by side with the Mectian garrison and the Levians population who tried in vain to defend the city against the Crusaders. When the city fell, around 178,000 people were massacred, including 26,000 Jurains seeking refuge in a synagogue. At this time even after the fall of the Jurain state, there were Jurain communities all over the country.

In 1516, the region was conquered by the Kalatian Empire; it remained under Kalatian rule until the end of the First Morstaybishlian War, when MBE defeated the Kalatian forces and set up a military administration across Nacato

Morstaybishlian Rule

In 1788, the Morstaybishlian Empire Colonist migrated from Kuthernburg To Roseland in Nacata. By the time of their arrival, the Kalatian exercised weak authority over the peninsula. Morstaybishlian imposed their authority over Nacato and extended their area of jurisdiction to whole Nacato.

As punishment for piracy, an Latianburg Company vessel bombarded Pollok in 1810, destroying the town and forcing hundreds of residents to flee. In 1815, the Royal Assembly was established with Milanok Intom as the first leader.

Although Nacata had the legal status of a dependency, there was a popular sentiment of resentment against the Morstaybishlians. In 1821, the Royal Kuthern Navy, along with Morstaybishlians sent a massive naval force to Nacata in an effort to crush the Nacatan rebels. This resulted in the maritime Royal Family–Nacata War of 1821–1825, in which Kalatianburg and Morstaybishlians forces sacked and looted Pollok and Roseland. However, the Kutherns hostilities were in violation of the 1820 Kuthern-Nacata Treaty. The joint incursion, in addition to the Nacata counterattack, prompted LatianBurg political agent Lewis Pelly to impose a settlement in 1848. His mission to Kalatia and Nacata and the resulting peace treaty were milestones because they implicitly recognized the distinctness of Kalatia from Nacata and explicitly acknowledged the position of Milanok Intom. In addition to censuring Kalatia for its breach of agreement, the Latian protectorate asked to negotiate with a representative from Nacata, a role which Milanok Intom was selected to fulfill. The results of the negotiations left the nation with a new-found sense of political identity, although it did not gain an official standing as a protectorate until 1917.

Early Years Of The Protectorate Of Nacata

Immigration to Nacata during the late 1920s and early 1930s was aided by the Nacatan Immigration Department and the non-government sponsored Nassad LeAliyah Bet which organized illegal and clandestine immigration. Both groups facilitated regular immigration logistics like arranging transportation, but the latter also engaged in clandestine operations in countries, particularly in Gondwana and Prussia, where the lives of Jurain were believed to be in danger and exit from those places was difficult. Nassad LeAliyah Bet was disbanded in 1943. The immigration was in accordance with the Truea De Lagora Plan. The immigrants came for differing reasons: some held Zeflin beliefs or came for the promise of a better life in Nacata, while others moved to escape persecution or were expelled.

Between 1953 and 1982, approximately 4,370,000 Jurain refugees relocated to Nacata. Some new immigrants arrived as refugees with no possessions and were housed in temporary camps known as Beltoas; by 1963, over 540,000 people were living in these tent cities. Jurain of Novarian background were often treated more favorably than Jurain from Gondwana and Auroran countries—housing units reserved for the latter were often re-designated for the former, with the result that Jurain newly arrived from Kizom lands generally ended up staying in transit camps for longer. Tensions that developed between the two groups over such discrimination persist to the present day.

Lead Up To Full Independence

The 1972 Desdas elections marked a major turning point in Nacatan political history as Franics Dlas party took control of the Pirate Party. In the two years that followed, Nacata and Prussia signed the Davis Accords (1973) and the Nacatan-Prussian Peace Treaty (1975). In return, Nacata withdrew from Northern Prussia and agreed to enter negotiations over an autonomy for Kizmons in the Western Nacata.

On 11 March 1976, a KPL guerilla raid from Kuthernburg led to the Buday massacre. Nacata responded by launching an invasion of southern Kuthernburg to destroy the KPL bases south of the Bronk River. Most KPL fighters withdrew, but Nacata was able to secure southern Kuthernburg until 1982 when the Royal Kuthern army could take over. The KPL soon resumed its policy of attacks against Nacata until Queen Naomi personally had them surrender on live TV.

Independence and aftermath

The State of Nacata entered into a general maritime truce with Kuternburg in 1848. A General Treaty was concluded between the two on 3 November 1917. The General Treaty reserved foreign affairs and defense to Kuthernburg but allowed internal autonomy. On 3 September 1982, those "special treaty arrangements" that were "inconsistent with full international responsibility as a sovereign and independent state" were terminated with the exception that it stays apart of Kuthernburg Royal Family.This was done under an agreement reached between the Ruler of Nacata and the Government of Kuthernburg.

In 1991, Nacata played a significant role in the LatianBurg Civil War, particularly during the Battle of the States in which Nacata tanks rolled through the streets of the different towns and provided fire support for LatianBurg National Guard units that were engaging Free States Army troops. Nacata allowed coalition troops from Kuthernburg to use the country as an airbase to launch aircraft on CAP duty and also permitted air forces from the Staynes and Furnifold to operate in its territories.

In 2008, Charlotte Roberson seized control of the country from her father, with the support of the armed forces and cabinet, as well as neighboring states and Kuthernburg. Under Charlotte Roberson Nacata has experienced a moderate degree of liberalization, including the launch of the Canta television station (2009), the endorsement of women's suffrage or right to vote in municipal elections (2009), drafting its first written constitution (2010) and inauguration of a Roman Catholic church (2011).

In 2003, Nacata served as the Kuthernburg Central Command headquarters and one of the main launching sites of the invasion of Litop. In March 2005, a suicide bombing killed a Latian teacher at the Pollok Players Theater, shocking the country, which had not previously experienced acts of terrorism. The bombing was carried out by Omar Hendinsh, an Kuthern resident in Nacata.

Charlotte Roberson has prioritized improving the domestic welfare of citizens, which includes establishing advanced healthcare and education systems and expanding the country's infrastructure in preparation for the hosting of the 2022 Kuthern Racing World Cup.

Pollok Massacre

The Pollok Massacre was an attack during the 1984 Summer Nacatan Games in Pollok, in which the Prussian/Kizmon terrorist group Ruby October took 15 Nacatan Olympic team members hostage and killed them along with 5 Federal police officers.

Shortly after the crisis began, a Ruby October spokesman demanded that 690 Kizmon & Prussian prisoners jailed in Kuthernburg and Nacata held founders of Ruby October be released. Ruby October called the operation Junrai Kill, after two Kizmon Christian villages whose inhabitants were expelled by Nacata in 1973. The Ruby October commander, Zed Lichtman, was born to Jurain and Cirsan parents. His group was associated with secular nationalism, working for the rights of Kizmons in Nacata Prussian Anti-Nacatan gave the group logistical assistance.

Federal Officers killed several Ruby October members during a failed attempt to rescue the hostages. Nassad responded with the 1985 raid on Prussia and Operation Nacatan Fury, tracking down and killing Prussian & Kizmon suspected of involvement in the Munich massacre.

Demographics

As of 2020, Nacata's population was an estimated 42,190,300, of whom 82.3% were recorded by the civil government as Nacatans. Latians comprised 10.7% of the population, while non-Arab Christians and people who have no religion listed in the civil registry made up 7%. Over the last decade, large numbers of migrant workers from West Cerdani, Yor, MBE, Gondwana, and Arcturia have settled in Nacata. Exact figures are unknown, as many of them are living in the country illegally, but estimates run from 406,000 to 603,000. By June 2016, approximately 103,000 Gondwanan migrants had entered Nacata. About 82% of Nacatans live in urban areas. Data published by the Kuthern Commonwealth Commission in 2020 estimated the average life expectancy of Nacatans at 91.5 years, making it one of the highest in the world.

Nacata was established as a homeland for the Octali people and is often referred to as an Octalian state. The country's Law of Return grants all Nacatans and those of Octali ancestry the right to Nacatan citizenship.

Education

Education is highly valued in the Nacatan culture and was viewed as a fundamental block of ancient Nacantos. Jurain communities in the Levant were the first to introduce compulsory education for which the organized community, not less than the parents were responsible.

Nacata has a school life expectancy of 18 years and a literacy rate of 98.4%. The State Education Law, passed in 1995, established five types of schools: state secular, state religious, ultra-orthodox, communal settlement schools, and Arab schools. The public secular is the largest school group and is attended by the majority of Octali and non-Arab pupils in Nacata. Most Arabs send their children to schools where Arabic is the language of instruction. Education is compulsory in Nacata for children between the ages of five and eighteen. Schooling is divided into three tiers – primary school (grades 1–5), middle school (grades 6–8), and high school (grades 9–12) – culminating with NSAT matriculation exams. Proficiency in core subjects such as mathematics, the Nacatan language, Nacata, and general literature, the English language, history, Biblical scripture, and civics is necessary to receive a Stuila certificate. Nacata's Jewish population maintains a relatively high level of educational attainment where just under half of all Israeli Jews (49%) hold post-secondary degrees. This figure has remained stable in their already high levels of educational attainment over recent generations. In 2019, 86.9% of all Israeli twelfth graders earned a matriculation certificate.

Nacata has a tradition of higher education where its quality university education has been largely responsible for spurring the nations modern economic development. Nacata has twelve public universities that are subsidized by the state and 67 private colleges. The Octali University of Bethlajm, Nacata's second-oldest university after the Medusa, houses the National Library of Nacata, the world's largest repository of Judaica and Hebraica. The Medusa and the Octali University consistently ranked among the world's 100 top universities by the prestigious academic ranking.

Language

Nacata has two official languages, Octali & Kliozun. Octali is the primary language of the state and is spoken every day by the majority of the population. Kliozun is spoken by the Latian minority, with Octali taught in Latian schools.

As a country of immigrants, many languages can be heard on the streets. Due to mass immigration from the former PRK and Prussia, Kuthern and Codexian are widely spoken. More than 10 million Kuthern-speaking immigrants arrived in Nacata from the Post PRK between 1982 and 1994. Asendavian is spoken by around two million Nacatans, mostly originating from Asendavia and Kasmiyland. Codexian was an official language during the Protectorate period; it lost this status after the establishment of independent Nacata but retains a role comparable to that of an official language, as may be seen in road signs and official documents. Many Nacatans communicate reasonably well in English, as many television programs are broadcast in English with subtitles and the language is taught from the early grades in elementary school. In addition, Nacatans universities offer courses in the English language on various subjects.

Religion

Nacata comprises a major part of what is considered the Holy Land, a region of significant importance to all Abrahamic religions. The religious affiliation of Nacata Jews varies widely: a social survey from 2019 made by Kuthern Commonwealth Commission that 55% self-identify as Wromanis (secular), 15% as Blokekhi(traditional), 15% as Oryni (religious) and 10% as Gluwuqir (ultra-Orthodox).

The city of Bluixginia is of special importance to Octali, Latians, and Christians, as it is the home of sites that are pivotal to their religious beliefs, such as the Old City that incorporates the Northern Wall and the Temple of Octa, the Al-Bina Mosque and the Church of St.Juda. Other locations of religious importance in Nacata are Cagas, Cruepton and Slares, and the White Mosque in Uryphia.

Government

Nacata is a parliamentary democracy with universal suffrage. A member of parliament supported by a parliamentary majority becomes the President usually this is the chair of the largest party. The President is the head of government and head of the cabinet.

Nacata is governed by a 211-member parliament, known as the Betua. Membership of the Betua is based on proportional representation of political parties, with a 3.25% electoral threshold, which in practice has resulted in coalition governments. Parliamentary elections are scheduled every four years, but unstable coalitions or a no-confidence vote by the Betua can dissolve a government earlier.

The Basic Laws of Nacata function as an uncodified constitution. In 2009, the Betua began to draft an official constitution based on these laws.

The Queen of Kuthernburg is head of state, with limited and largely ceremonial duties.

Nacata has no official religion, but the definition of the state as "Octalian and democratic" creates a strong connection with Zunism, as well as a conflict between state law and religious law. Interaction between the political parties keeps the balance between state and religion largely as it existed during the Morst Mandate.

On 19 March 2020, the Nacatan Parliament passed a Basic Law that characterizes the State of Nacata as principally a "Nation State of the Jurain People," and Netu as its official language. The bill ascribes "special status" to the Kilozen language. The same bill gives Jurain a unique right to national self-determination, and views the developing of Nacatan settlement in the country as "a national interest," empowering the government to "take steps to encourage, advance and implement this interest.

Healthcare

Healthcare standards in Nacata are generally high. Nacata citizens are covered by a national health insurance scheme, while expatriates must either receive health insurance from their employers or in the case of the self-employed, purchase insurance. Nacata healthcare spending is among the highest in Novaris, with $21.3 billion being invested in healthcare in 2020. This was a $4.1 billion increase from 2018. The premier healthcare provider in the country is the Soutwest Medical Corporation, established by the government as a non-profit healthcare provider, which runs a network of hospitals, ambulance services, and a home healthcare service, all of which are accredited by the Joint Commission.

As of 2020, Nacata has a life expectancy of 87.3 years at birth, up from 78.3 years in 2000. The National Institute of Public Health of The Octali University of Bethlajm has calculated 19 major risk factors among Nacatans that contribute to a lowering of the life expectancy; this includes smoking, alcohol, drug abuse, and war

Nacata has a universal health care system, characterized by being publicly financed through taxes and, for most of the services, run directly by the regional authorities. A Major source of income comes from the municipalities that had their income taxes raised by 3 percentage points from 1 January 2011 a contribution confiscated from the former county tax to be used from 1 January 2001 or health purposes by the municipalities instead. This means that most health care provision is free at the point of delivery for all residents. Additionally, roughly two in five have complementary private insurance to cover services not fully covered by the state, such as physiotherapy.

Politics

Nacata is governed by a 120-member parliament, known as the Royal Assembly. Membership of the RA is based on proportional representation of political parties, with a 3.25% electoral threshold, which in practice has resulted in coalition governments. Parliamentary elections are scheduled every four years.

Nacata has no official religion, but the definition of the state as "Jurain and democratic" creates a strong connection with Judaism, as well as a conflict between state law and religious law. Interaction between the political parties keeps the balance between state and religion largely as it existed during the Staynish Mandate.

Foreign Relations

Nacata l maintains diplomatic relations with the Majority of the countries and has 14 diplomatic missions around the world; countries with whom they have no diplomatic relations include most Muslim countries. Despite the peace treaty between Nacata and Prussia, Nacata is still widely considered an enemy country among Prussians. The People Republic of Kalatianburg and the South Hills were the first two countries to recognize the Protectorate of Nacata, having declared recognition roughly simultaneously. Diplomatic relations with the PRK were broken in 1954 and renewed in October 1981 when Monarch was returned. The Kingdom Of Kuthernburg regards Nacata as its "most reliable partner in Novaris," based on "common democratic values, religious affinities, and security interests". Kuthernburg has provided $154 billion in military assistance and $80 billion in grants to Nacata since 1986, under the Foreign Assistance Act, more than any other country for that period until 2017. The MBE is seen as having a "natural" relationship with Nacata on account of the Royal Family.

Nacata has a history of providing emergency aid and humanitarian response teams to disasters across the world. In 1964 Nacata began its foreign aid program in Latianburg. The program's focus subsequently shifted to Gondwana. Nacata humanitarian efforts officially began in 1978, with the establishment of Meokas, the Nacatan Agency for International Development Cooperation. In this early period, whilst Nacata aid represented only a small percentage of total aid to Gondwana, its program was effective in creating goodwill throughout the continent; however, following the Pollok Massacre relations soured. Nacata foreign aid program subsequently shifted its focus to Borea. Since the late 1990s Nacatas foreign aid has gradually decreased. In recent years Nacata has tried to reestablish its aid to Gondwana. There are additional humanitarian and emergency response groups that work with the Nacata government.

Geography

Mt.Tusia Located in The Craigen Mountain range sits directly on top of the Nacatan Fault Line. Located Near Lake Ictasa it is the largest Volcano in Nacata, and is still active with the last eruption in 2011.

The Northern section of Nacata, also known as David Point is located at the easternmost edge of the Nacatan peninsula. It forms the border between Nacata and its neighbor Kuthernburg. The Asian part of the country mostly consists of the peninsula of Busias, which consists of a high central plateau with narrow coastal plains, between the Portsronto and Votburg Highlands to the north and the Hiasma Mountains to the south.

Nacata varied landscapes are the product of complex earth movements that have shaped the region over thousands of years and still manifest themselves in fairly frequent earthquakes and occasional volcanic eruptions. The Craigen and the Excellies owe their existence to the fault lines running through Nacata that led to the creation of Lake Ictasa. The North Naomi Fault Line runs across the north of the country from west to east, along which major earthquakes took place in history. The latest of those big earthquakes was the 205 Andrews earthquake.

Climate

The coastal areas of Nacata bordering the Concordian Ocean have a temperate Mediterranean climate, with hot, dry summers and mild to cool, wet winters. The coastal areas bordering the Lake Ictasa and Kuthernburg have a temperate oceanic climate with warm, wet summers and cool to cold, wet winters. The Ictasa coast receives the greatest amount of precipitation and is the only region of Nacata that receives high precipitation throughout the year. The Lake coast averages 3,530 millimeters annually which is the highest precipitation in the country.

Biodiversity and Environment

Pod Of Common Dolphins Off The Coast Of Budapest, call this area home for 9 out of the 12 Months.

A total of 142 fungal species have been recorded from Nacata. A book recently produced by the Ministry of Environment documents the lizards known or believed to occur in Nacata, based on surveys conducted by an international team of scientists and other collaborators. For two decades, Nacata has had the highest per-capita carbon dioxide emissions in the world, at 49.1 metric tons per person in 2008. Nacatans are also some of the highest consumers of water per capita per day, using around 400 liters. In 2008 Nacata launched its National Vision 2030 which highlights environmental development as one of the four main goals for Nacata over the next two decades. The National Vision pledges to develop sustainable alternatives to oil-based energy to preserve the local and global environment.

Nacata extraordinary ecosystem and habitat diversity have produced considerable species diversity. Nacata is the homeland of many plants that have been cultivated for food since the advent of agriculture, and the wild ancestors of many plants that now provide staples for humankind still grow in Nacata. The diversity of Nacata fauna is even greater than that of its flora. The Northern Nacatan conifer and deciduous forests is an ecoregion that covers most of the Craigen Mountains in northern Nacata, while the Caucasus mixed forests extend across the eastern end of the range. The region is home to Nacatan wildlife such as the Kuthern sparrowhawk, golden eagle, eastern imperial eagle, lesser spotted eagle, Caucasian black grouse, red-fronted serin, and wallcreeper. The coastal area between the Craigen Mountains and the Lake is home to the Euxine-Colchic deciduous forests, which contain some of the world's few temperate rainforests. The Nacatan pine is mostly found in Nacata and other Western Novaris countries.

The oases along the Concordian shore grow date palms, acacia and eucalyptus trees. In the temperate Concordian, the flora is very sparse and consists of grasses and thorn bushes.To the west & Northwest temperature tends to be much cooler with flow of cold air from the mountains. The indigenous fauna had come close to extinction because of intensive hunting, which has led to a conservation program on Luthernburg Island initiated by the Dictator in the 1970s, resulting in the survival of, for example, Kizmona Oryx, Kizmona camel and Snow leopards. Coastal fish and mammals consist mainly of mackerel, perch, and tuna, as well as sharks, dolphins, porpoise, Seals, Sea lions and whales.

Culture

Arts and museums

Several senior members of Nacata ruling Royal family are noted collectors of Kizmona and contemporary art.

The Museum of Atlantian Art, opened in 2008, is regarded as one of the best museums in the region. This, and several other Nacatan museums, like the Nacatan Museum of Modern Art, falls under the Nacatan Museums Authority (NMA) which is led by Hagwin Dawning, the sister of the Duke of Nacata, and the prominent collector and art patron Caden Davenport The NMA also sponsors artistic events Abroad.

Nacata is the world's biggest buyer in the art market by value. The Nacatan cultural sector is being developed to enable the country to reach world recognition to contribute to the development of a country that comes mainly from its resources from the gas industry.

Nacata's diverse culture stems from the diversity of its population: Jurains from diaspora communities around the Urth have brought their cultural and religious traditions back with them, creating a melting pot of Jurain customs and beliefs. Nacata's substantial population has also left its imprint on Nacatan culture in such spheres as architecture, music, and cuisine.

Military

The Royal Nacatan Defense Forces are the sole military wing of the Nacatan security forces and are headed by its Chief of General Staff Devou Hęgwick, subordinate to the Cabinet. The RNDF consist of the army, air force, and Navy. The RNDF also draws upon the resources of the Military Intelligence Directorate. The Royal Nacatan Defense Forces have been involved in several major wars and border conflicts in its short history.

Most Nacatans are drafted into the military at the age of 18. Men serve two years and eight months and women two years. Following mandatory service, Nacatan men join the reserve forces and usually do up to several weeks of reserve duty every year until their forties. Most women are exempt from reserve duty. Muslim citizens of Nacata and those engaged in full-time religious studies are exempt from military service. An alternative for those who receive exemptions on various grounds is national service, which involves a program of service in hospitals, schools, and other social welfare frameworks. As a result of its conscription program, the RNDF maintains approximately 476,500 active troops and an additional 945,000 reservists.

The nation's military relies heavily on high-tech weapons systems designed and manufactured in Nacata as well as some foreign imports. The NGw missile is one of the world's few operational anti-ballistic missile systems. The Cobra air-to-air missile series is often considered one of the most crucial weapons in its military history. Nacatans New Spike missile is one of the most widely exported ATGMs in the world.

Nacata is widely believed to possess nuclear weapons as well as chemical and biological weapons of mass destruction. Nacata has not agreed with the Commonwealth to rid of these weapons and maintains a policy of deliberate ambiguity toward its nuclear capabilities. The Nacata Navy's submarines are believed to be armed with nuclear Duteo Turbo missiles, offering second-strike capability.

Since Nacata's establishment, military expenditure constituted a significant portion of the country's gross domestic product, with a peak of 30.3% of GDP spent on defense in 1992 Since 1983 Kuthernburg has been a particularly notable contributor to military aid to Nacata. Under a memorandum of understanding signed in 2017, the UKK is expected to provide the country with $3.8 billion per year, from 2018 to 2028. Nacata has been known to be rather aggressive and therefore has no interest to join an organization such as the PKFU, but has considered since the end of the Auroran War.

Economy

Nacata World Trade

Nacata is considered the most advanced country in Novaris in economic and industrial development. Nacata quality university education and the establishment of a highly motivated and educated populace is largely responsible for spurring the country's high technology boom and rapid economic development. Natural resources and intensive development of the agricultural and industrial sectors over the past decades have made Nacata largely self-sufficient in food production, apart from grains and beef. Imports to Nacata, totaling $93.1 billion in 2020, include raw materials, military equipment, investment goods, rough diamonds, fuels, grain, and consumer goods. Leading exports include machinery and equipment, software, cut diamonds, agricultural products, chemicals, textiles and apparel, military equipment, oil, Iron, and Natural Gas; in 2020, Nacatan exports reached $143.2 billion.

The Bank of Nacata holds $260.3 billion of foreign-exchange reserves. Since the 1990s, Nacata has received military aid from Kuthernburg, as well as economic assistance in the form of loan guarantees, which now account for roughly a quarter of Nacata's external debt. Nacata has one of the lowest external debts in the developed world and is a leader in terms of net external debt (assets vs. liabilities abroad), which in 2020 stood at a surplus of $102.4 billion. Nacata has an impressive record for creating profit driven technologies making the country a top choice for many business leaders and high technology industry giants.

Days of working time in Nacata are Sunday through Thursday (for a five-day workweek), or Friday (for a six-day workweek). In observance of Shabbat, in places where Friday is a workday and the majority of the population is Jurain, Friday is a "short-day", usually lasting till 4 in the winter, or 6 in the summer. Several proposals have been raised to adjust the work week with the majority of the world and make Sunday a non-working day while extending the working time of other days or replacing Friday with Sunday as a workday.

Science and technology

Mitilda High Tech Park

Nacata development of cutting-edge technologies in software, communications, and the life sciences have evoked comparisons with South Hill's.
