Proposed Icy Mountains Republic frontiers
The Icy Mountains are a mountainous and cold region to the south end of Coldfield; Is both the coldest and highest region of the country and home to 2 million people. The region has two separatist movements: the Icy Mountains People's Action, a communist movement that aims to establish a sovereign state in the region whose capital would be the city of Amaranthinos. The opposition to the ICPA are The Wardens, an economically liberal yet socially conservative movement that seeks to put into practice the native religion as a state religion, also basing the Constitution on religious laws. It is notable that the former was always more violent, while the latter ended their armed movement at the end of the Great Internal War in 1957.
75% of the region is inhabited by Native Coldfieldians, a population who possess the ability to control time, death, air, earth, fire, and water. The economy is led by minerals extraction and the production of foods such as cheese and Shezdamia; and plantations of Mountain Parsley and Druperage.
The conflict reached its peak with the beginning of the Great Internal War, when then king Hildred Meyer expressed his desire to expel all "non homo-niveus" to beyond the southern border (with the mortal Purple Forest as final destination) or to forced labor camps; In this list were included the natives, who began a rebellion against the reign to establish their own nation. The movement inspired other smaller movements, such as Nueva Hispania (to west of the southern mountains) and the New Hellenic Republic (to northeast of the mountains). The war ended in the Conquest of Siegecity (base of operations for the ICPA) in August 1957, but the separatists never ceased their activities.
