Chintiquan Confederation

Under the Charter of Unified Chintiqua, the Vedalkens united with the peoples of Hideria, the Lizardkolk, the Tnulesh, Eños, and Ithiliads to become the Chintiquan Alliance, which would evolve into the modern Chintiquan Confederation. The national capital was placed in the Vedalken city of Vekstantol, which they renamed Chintiqua Maxima at the signing of the Charter.

The country is governed by a council of nine members, six of which are directly chosen by the member peoples, and three others who are voted in by the entire nation. They are known as the Archon Council. The Council determines international policy and maintains the army and transportation infastructure. Each member people has authority over domestic issues and its unique "field of expertise".

During the Times of Endless War, the Vedalkens were dominating Chintiquan politics. The council became very close with the Gorgatian Empire (modern Borntol Union), and subsequently Nâlom (Nahlom), and their mutual need to explore, to expand, and to exploit. Towards the end of those times, the peoples of the others (ie. non-Vedalkens) revolted against the Vedlaken-controlled government and demanded major reforms.

The subsequent restructuring of the government greatly limited the Council's ability to declare war and sign treaties. They also voted to switch the Vedalkens' specialty. Theirs was the navy, but it was changed to international aid and support. This antagonized Borntol and Nahlom, who were close allies by that time Most importantly these reforms are seen as the starting point of the Great Retreat from Empire, the time period which suceeded the Times of Endless War.

The country would now be known as the Chintiquan Confederation after these reforms. The Archon Council then voted to return all overseas territories either to their original owners, or to Borntol in some cases. They then began giving aid to their former enemies, Durnia and the Runtkil Empire; after discussion they then focused their aid on disadvantaged people hurt by the Times of Endless War.

Chintiqua is now known as the great diplomat, priding itself on using diplomacy to solve international issues. The Council has yet to make any major descions relating to the Airship Revolution; the Tnulesh have brought many from Borntol, but the Ithiliads are strongly against them. Chintiqua today is in a very unique situation. It is the diplomat of the world, in its relative center. They are bringing together teams of young, brave inteligent and diplomatic people from across the world into their great organization, the League of Nations. These teams, known as Diplomologists, are sent on missions across the world to dispense peace, and negotiate on League of Nations official treaties and convince their signatories to agree.
