Altiqala

Altiqala (, Altıqala), officially the Altian People's Republic, is a  located in north-western Yoju. It is bordered by Rajaseutu to the west, XX to the south, XX to the southeast, and Nuorungguru in the east. In the north and the north east it borders the XX ocean. The capital of Altiqala is Atasu and its largest city is Qulsary with a population of 13.4 million people. The name Altiqala is derived from the six nations of Altian peoples which united in 1453.

Previous to the Altian Migration the borders of modern day Altiqala were inhabited by a number of nomadic and  peoples. The ancestors of the modern day Altian people are believed to have arrived as early as 25 BCE. Six distinct nations, known as, formed from the six major settlements of the Altian held lands. The Altian Wars (1440-1453) saw the unification of the six jüz as the Khanate of Altiqala under Khan Aslan I. The Khanate pushed far into western Yoju, establishing vassals throughout the predominantly Abrahamic lands of western Yoju. For much of the 15th and 16th centuries the Khanate was at war with the Christian world. The Khanate was pushed out of its far western holding in 1701 following the Easter Uprising. In 1904 the declining Khanate was overthrown in the Altian Revolution, putting in place a democratic republic backed by the Sinju powers. The Altian Republic experienced a number of initial issues which resulted in an unstable government lacking the confidence of the people. Once Jeongmian influence declined in western Yoju the Altian Republic collapsed, resulting in the Altian Civil War (1939-1948). The Altian Civil War led to the creation of the socialist Altian People's Republic in 1948. The formative years of the People's Republic saw an expedited attempt at modernization as well as the rapid restructuring of society. For the majority of the 50s and 60s Altiqala remained closed off to the majority of the eastern world, relying mostly on its alliance with Nuurgalaan. In the late 70s economic and political reforms resulted in the opening up of the country to countries in eastern Yoju and Sinju.

Today Altiqala is considered a by most standards. It has a steadily growing economy based largely around the country's plentiful industry such as  and. Steady political reformations throughout the 1980s and 1990s have made the country's governing process more open and democratic, however the regime is still characterized as authoritarian and suppressive of political freedom by most human rights groups. Altiqala exercises a moderate degree of regional influence in wetsern Yoju, moreso within its position in the Nuurg-Altian Socialist Alliance name.
