The '''Imperial States of Free Pax States''' is a hereditary, absolute, federal monarchy comprising of eight states, four special administrative regions, a territory and a district. The nation is situated in Southeast Yasteria, just south of Packilvania, and just north of Justelvard. The nation shares a land boarder with Packilvania and Justelvard though the Free Pax States is largely comprised of an archipelago. The nation has a mostly tropical climate with the exception of the Kaoghoni Desert in its northwest. The Imperial States has a diverse population of approximately 209 million.

 

The most well-known newspapers in the FPS are the ''Arctoris Times'', ''Garneldo Free Press'', ''Liberty City Post'', and ''FPS Today''. Although the cost of publishing has increased over the years, the price of newspapers has generally remained low, forcing newspapers to rely more on advertising revenue and on articles provided by a major wire service, such as the ''FPS Press'', for their national and world coverage. With very few exceptions, all the newspapers in the FPS are privately owned, many by large chains. Major cities often have "alternative weeklies" to complement the mainstream daily papers, for example, Arctoris's ''Bay Report'' or Zalebano's ''Zalebano Weekly'', to name two of the best-known. Major cities may also support a local business journal, trade papers relating to local industries, and papers for local ethnic and social groups.
