The Republic of Anglia is a large Country on the Western Continent of Erfolg. It was founded in 490 IP by Gregory Applegate and a band of exiled Arnarians in coordination with Demons and Niosian exiles.

Pre-Arnarian Settlement
Prior to the arival of the Anglian people from Arnaria and Niosus, Anglia was settled by the Alom People of the Plains. After a war of agression the Alom people were supplanted, and many of them escaped to the then accessible continent of Kolomtek in the southern hemisphere.

The northern borders of Anglia rest with The Moderate Northern Commonwealth which also holds a large Alom population.

Anglian Culture
Anglia is a nation of progress, it's obsession with the individual is eerie. Industry drives the massive engines of military and cultural expanionism that have sent Anglia blazing into several wars to preserve its way of life. Anglian cuisine is rich in butter and starches as well as large, cuts of meat served medium rare. The agricultural past of Anglia lends itself highly to its culture, particularly the teachings of the farmer/philosopher Earl Hinecks who taught the now widespread philisophical school known as Elevationalism.

Anglia has a strong willed democratic government split amongst three major political parties, namely the Adaptionists, the Survivalists, and the Dominionists. The State religion is Diem, although the war with Niosus has left many of its citizens disillusioned with the institution of the church.

Armed Forces
Anglia has reached its position as a superpower through the development of a modern industrial military. The Anglian Armed Forces has Army, Air Force and Naval branches as well as less conventional Astral Forces and Combat Casters. The Armed Forces are supported by the Nomads, a Philanthropic intelligence agency founded to help prevent wars, as well as the Anglian Pre-emptive Military and Espionage Agency (APMEA.) The homeland security of Anglia is also highly dependant on the actions of the Homeland Watch, a paramilitary organization which defends the nation from direct attacks.
