Alvarian Confederation

The Alvarian Confederation, or simply Alvaria, was a member state of the Second Uldarash Empire created out of the Union of Aravind and Alfheim on the 1st of September 2021 in the Midgard Union agreement. The first and only Prime Minister of Alvaria was Piotik.

Government
The Alvarian government consisted of one parliament led by a Prime Minister. The parliament was made out of 8 Confederate Ministers, and 4 Grand Representatives, making it a total of 13 with the Prime Minister. Confederate Ministers were elected by all citizens of the Alvarian Confederacy and have ruling power over things such as: military, economy, foreign affairs, infrastructure, justice, culture and import-export. Grand Representatives were elected from each of the four provinces within Alvaria and acted as the local peoples voice within parliament, which enabled them to participate in lawmaking and votings.

Geography
Alvaria was located roughly where the Alfheim Capitol Region sits today, near the center of the Second Uldarash Empire and north-east of Sanctuary. The Confederation was split into four provinces: Faeheim, Midgard, Jargenfeld and Alfheim. The capital of Alvaria, Chervonstad, was located in the province of Alfheim. Each province had its own provincial capital; Faeheim's capital was Dunwulch, Midgard's capital was Midgard City, Jargenfeld's capital was Sagan-tosu, and Alfheim's capital was Chervonstad.

The geography of Alvaria was no different than what is seen in Alfheim today, with the exception of heavy terraforming of the Arvalian Mountains following the rapid expansion of Axel.

Politics
Each month, one week before the 30th, everyone could campaign for a Minister or a Grand Representative position in parliament. The official elections started at the final day of the month. On that day all citizens of the Alvarian Confederacy had the right to vote for their ministers and their local grand representative. The votings went on for 24 hours. (Link to Alvarian elections.)

Additionally each Minister could appoint their own Vice Minister, who could help and give insight.

Economy
The biggest income source comes from mining and trading with other Uldarashi states. The Confederacy also has tons of farmlands and thus do not have to rely on import. The second biggest income, comes from donations from the citizens to the state.

Military
The Alvarian Confederation had an active enlisted army of +20 men-at-arms with 60 reserves. All citizens could have been drafted in a case of war which would have brought the Alvarian manpower up to 80 people. All enlisted personnel had basic combat training and full diamond gear provided by the state. All active personnel had hours of experience and were advanced in the arts of combat. Some had access to horses to act as knights. Drafted personnel were provided a Confederate shield and iron sword, the rest of the armor has to be bought or made by the draftees themselves.
