For a small country, like really small, a fraction of northern Ireland, they have a substantial military judging by the amount of equipment they have. Some of these look really advanced like the F-27 fighter jet, not only that but 1/8 of your population is part of the reserves for infantry. Their dedication to the military is also seen by the fact that they have 6 factbooks dedicated to it.
Highly democratic and freedom-loving population, what if Mongolia and Japan had a child who also has an Indian driving instructor, increasing tensions between Market Socialists and Maoists, eats the aeugh fish, pets the aeugh fish, Aruday metro train doors have a tendency to amputate riders

Among the vassals, nobles initially held much power relative to one another. The Hanseatic era started an irreversible trend of the transfer of influence to merchants and burghers.

They are pretty much Asian Venezuela if Asian Hugo Chavez actually diversified the economy, if I got that right. But overall, I see it as some sort of nation created as a solution to the South China (or if you're Filipino; West Philippine) Sea even if the nation's user doesn't exactly see it that way. I can tell that this nation is particularly patriotic for the Kingdom of Tondo which ruled a huge portion of Luzon before the Spanish came, or was it just the AN's user, I actually don't know. I just see it as a Sino-Filipino Confederation, that's all.

Eamhna's administrative divisions are drawn along the lines of the historical territorial divisions which correspond to the traditional feudal lordships that existed prior to the Revestment Act of 1848. What the aforementioned Revestment Act did was buy the rights to the land from nobility that previously owned it.

It avoided being absorbed into the UK and had many feudal lordships. It's near and similar to Ireland so its interesting it has the Queen as the head of state.

Also, nice flag ;)

Their administratives divisions have retained borders originating from the feudal era, despite presently being a parliamentary democracy. One wonders what affect this has on proportional representation, and whether they are left to deal with issues similar to the rotten boroughs that existed in Britain.
