Aeolia
Capital: Kimika
Form of government: Trivium of Kimika — a treaty dated 06.06.01 e.p.s., according to which Aeolia loses its political independence and its future fate is determined by the will of three states: the Kingdom of Refitea, the Republic of Ditlind, and the Eastern Federation. The head of the government is a viceroy appointed by representatives of the three governments.
Queen: Celestia Moon. Stripped of any power, but still the people's beloved queen of Aeolia. 
Viceroy: General Canis. In the past, this niyi had a reputation as a famous hero of Aeolia, who managed to repel an invasion by the kingdom of Ditlind, but years later he tarnished his name by betraying his homeland and joining the invaders. Later, he was tasked with executing Cereza, the then-queen, and leading the new government. Each country wanted to see its own candidate as the viceroy of the new Aeolia, but failing to agree, they settled on the neutral candidacy of Canis.  
Territory: 38431 km²
Official religion: none.

Aeolia is a land of outcasts, to which, over the long years of the continent of Lafrenia's existence, all peoples who had lived there in the past and had noticeable physical differences from the human race of the middle continent were driven. Over time, despite significant cultural differences, they all managed to find a common language and unite into a single state for the purpose of establishing mutually beneficial relations with each other and protecting against external enemies. 

Liliyans
The original inhabitants of Aeolia (then simply known as "Lily"), who were persecuted during the heyday of Orion for their innate magical abilities. The main difference from humans is their long, pointed ears; they differ little from each other in height — a rare adult representative, regardless of gender, exceeds ~160-170 cm. Men have a lean but wiry physique without notable beauty of form, while women, on the contrary, are distinguished by large breasts and wide hips, even compared to representatives of other peoples. Life expectancy is about one hundred years; after reaching maturity, liliyans practically do not age.
In liliyan society, women traditionally hold leadership positions, while men often serve as soldiers and workers. Additionally, women are allowed to have multiple husbands if their status and financial means permit it. 

Niyi
A humanoid people with animal traits — typically, ears and a tail; they have strong differences among themselves: among the niyi there are both miniature representatives and giants over two meters tall. In the past, they inhabited most of Lafrenia's territories in small numbers, but due to the institution of statehood not being accepted in their culture, they became stereotyped as eccentrics and criminals and, over time, tired of centuries of discrimination, they were forced to seek a new place to live, which turned out to be Aeolia. 

Kaoli
The horned heirs of the Mao Empire, once destroyed by the combined efforts of the Cult of the Seven and Orion. Like the liliyans, they have a high affinity for magic, and their horns are an additional source of it. Women are distinguished by a subtle beauty of form and proportion, while men have a more massive and rough appearance. Despite the fact that most of their ancestors were demon worshippers, few modern kaoli follow the old traditions, preferring romanticism and freedom to choose their own path. According to the customs of this people, the bride and groom seal their marriage vows with magic, dying together on the very same day as their love.

Karinites
Named after Mount Karin, where their tribe originated in the distant past, these winged non-humans possess one of the most terrifying features imaginable on the battlefield — flight. Karinite warriors, preferring thrown weapons, particularly bows, can easily conduct devastating raids, effortlessly destroy enemy melee soldiers, etc. Their other differences from humans are feathers in the form of small wings on their heads, low body mass, and ovoviviparity as a method of reproduction. They live in pairs in small mountain settlements; children leave the family when they find a partner to live with. 

Humans of Aeolia
Immigrants, conquerors, and half-breeds.
Refitea
Capital: Lungrad
Form of government: Absolute monarchy
Tsarina: Vladilena Kirova
Territory: 600434 km²
Official religion: Church of Dante.

A state on the northern continent that managed to break into Lafrenia and remain the only transcontinental power in the current world.

Religion
The secular, legislative, and spiritual lives of Refitea are closely intertwined. The status of the Orion Church as an integral part of the Kingdom of Refitea is enshrined in the country's constitution, while the tsar is recognized as Dante's chosen one to govern the state. 
The cults of Superbia, Ira, and Tristitia also enjoy some popularity. 

Society
In Refitea, stoicism, loyalty to the homeland, devotion to the tsar, piety, interest in the sciences, arts, and the military craft are encouraged. People love to read, watch actors' performances, listen to musicians play, etc. 

The citizens of Refitea can be divided into three classes — members of the royal family, hereditary nobles, and commoners. Representatives of the lower class are defined by certain privileges, but as long as they behave appropriately, they are not infringed upon in any way: their right to life and personal dignity are enshrined in law, and anyone who violates it will inevitably be punished. Commoners can join high society by serving the homeland and the tsar with distinction and by joining an existing noble house, i.e., by marrying or being adopted. For nobles, social life largely follows the dogmas of Superbia, with slightly more strictness in the generally accepted wardrobe: among the nobility, it is considered indecent to bare skin below the neck and above the forearm. 
For nobles and commoners, matrilineal marriages are not permitted, while in the royal family, succession is inherited by either the eldest son or the eldest daughter in cases where there is no adult son in the main family at that time. The spouse, as a rule, has only a ceremonial status, but can hold any other positions if personal qualities allow it. Throughout the history of the royal house, it has always tried to avoid regency, and therefore in many cases the succession process could be accelerated if the reigning tsar was unfit to bear their burden. For this same reason, children were not allowed to rule the state.

Position on Aeolia
Refitea wishes to annex Aeolia as a new duchy.
Ditlind
Capital: Mintse
Form of government: Presidential-parliamentary republic
Chancellor: Leonhard Zenger
Territory: 428082 km²
Official religion: Cult of the Seven.

A wealthy country to the south of Aeolia.

Rise of the Republic
For most of its history, Ditlind was classified as a kingdom and was in many ways similar to Refitea, although with certain differences:
- The king had very broad powers, but was still limited by the opinions of the royal council and the assembly of aristocrats.
- Aristocrats enjoyed great privileges, while commoners had almost no personal rights. 
The situation changed two decades ago, when the number of aristocrats began to noticeably exceed the available lands — Ditlind's territories had long been divided among ancient families, and the new descendants of aristocrats had nowhere to live. King Ferdinand III and his advisors decided to solve this problem by conquering the neighboring state of Aeolia, whose lands would be ruled by those who distinguished themselves in the war. Contrary to expectations, Ferdinand's military campaign ended in complete failure, and upon returning home, a peasant revolt awaited him on his own land. The rebels, led by a young carpenter named Leonhard Zenger, took control of the kingdom, executed members of the royal family and the most influential aristocrats, and then completely reformed the state structure of their country. The next few years were very difficult for Ditlind, but over time it became clear that granting commoners freedom and establishing an egalitarian society led to rapid growth of the country in all spheres of its activity.

Society
Ditlinders are very hardworking, punctual, and results-oriented. They believe that every member of society, whether the leader of the state or a simple peasant, is equal before the law and both deserve respect for their labor. In the republic's elections, one of two family members votes — the husband or wife, thus acting as a representative of their common opinion. 

Ideology
The inhabitants of Ditlind are convinced of the exclusivity of their own worldview and the political structure of their country and are aimed at liberating the oppressed around the world from the tyranny of old traditions. Their attitude towards non-humans, however, remains unclear to this day. 

Position on Aeolia
They want to liberate it. 
Eastern Federation
Capital: Rika
Form of government: Confederate republic
President: Fitri Gunawan
Territory: 326276 km²
Official religion: Cult of the Seven.

The eastern part of Lafrenia is home to a large number of small nations, including island city-states, with diverse cultures and internal structures, which led to territorial disputes among them for a very long period of time. Civil strife had to be left in the past when it became clear that the small eastern countries were surrounded by powerful giants from the south, west, north, and even east. To be able to repel potential enemies and preserve their lands and culture, they had to unite into a single state. 

Religion
The Federation has many religious denominations little known outside their small communes, while the Cult of the Seven is welcomed in almost all its corners. 

Government
The parliament consists of representatives from each member state of the Federation, while the president is elected in a general election in which every adult resident of the country can vote. The parliament manages the economy, security, and joint development of the member states, but is otherwise limited in its influence over their internal affairs. The president acts as the voice of the people in parliament, determines foreign policy, and so on. 

Position on Aeolia
The Federation is interested in an independent kingdom, a reliable neighbor, and a trading partner.
