With pre-emptive apologies that this clashes with the (RL) Olympics and therefore the busiest period at work for me, meaning low participation, Liventia signs up.

In and we'll bring our puppet Xanneria in too
PRONOUNCED: Kuh-var-key-in Kahz
CAPITAL: Qariq
TRIGRAME: QQZ

We are an attempt at an over the top Central Asian style dictatorship with our influences being mainly Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.
Most policies and stats are cannon, but issues are picked with the craziest or most dictator friendly option in mind. All policies are considered cannon aside from Geronticide.
