Rokhtaera

Rokhtaera, officially known as Rokhtaeran Imperium or informally just as the Imperium, is a major world power primarily located within the southern portion of Nohkta, on the western fringes of Delezia. It is the primary leader of the closely-aligned Commonwealth of Nohkta, comprised of nations in and around the Nohktaeic Subcontinent, and has been a driving force in the plan of unification under one banner. To the north of the country include the neighboring nations of Imirius and Sovnka, and to the east is the hectic land of Khydea. Towards the southeast is the multicultural nation of Lapesa? and the Nautical Peace, its historic rival. Rokhtaera is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary democracy, with its capital Sosena centered around the Ruby River.

The royal family who currently rules the country is the Vendius dynasty, with Empress Yana II sitting on the throne since 9,453 Y. However, as the monarchy has no voice in politics and is merely a cultural significance thanks to the Quiet Revolution in 9,677 Y, the government is actually led by Orderly Minister Akaona Maeya.

Rokhtaera was the successor state that arose from the ashes during the collapse of Idetka in the mid-94th century, due to multiple failures and conflicts that arose. The rise to greater power, however, occurred during the Nokhtaeic Great War, when the combined forces of the majority of Praenokhto launched a massive invasion from the sea during XXXX-XXXX. While the countries of Nohkta lost to their former colonial holdings, being under the control of Madam Khailisa of Praenokhto, eventually Queen Hanamoni led an attack against them and won during the following Reconquest of Nohkta only a few years later. Aided by some Khydea clans, a historic threat to the subcontinent, this was a successful victory and led to a blossoming of Nohktaeic culture. Despite this, conflicts between fellow Nohktaeic nations continued, albeit at smaller scales.

Etymology

The name Rokhtaera stems from the Narunaeic language, which roughly translates to Heavenly Power. Linguistic experts today speculate that this may be a borrowed word from an Unuvi language, but no definite leads have been found.
